  1. 84015, Powder Mountain Utah. Lots of room to let the Virus rip. Thanks
  2. I won her over with my fish sticks, will make it final tomorrow.
  3. The wife said yes, Merry Christmas to me! Does Paypal work? 

  4. Cool, making dinner for my wife as I post this. I'm sure she'll say yes
  5. First in line? sent a message.
  6. For the price someone should pick this one up. I hope the surf has been good and hoping you have a good winter.
  7. Damn, worth 100 if not quite a bit more!
  8. Shot him an email from my Rocketmail account and he responded before I hit the send button, the only thing faster was my posted mail sent from USPS. Happy summer everyone! Golfing is the only thing more frustrating than railing turns.
  9. I'm impressed that you can concentrate with that serious lumber at the edges of the run, the past few years I've worked on "keeping my chest facing the fall line" something I once thought only applied to skiing. 20 years and I think I've figured it out, this one like the last one...
  10. Maybe I wasn't meant to sell this one, first of winter price may be more. Act soon !!! I hope everyone's season is ending better than mine, slush is deep and soft but I'm leaving the Pistonbully drivers something to work on. Going to have to take them some beer before the season ends. Everyone be careful in the thick and sticky snow. Kipp
  11. Riding a mountain called Powder Mountain and sadly my damn job has kept me from hitting the powder days. Offers on the Kessler?
  12. Bought another powder board and need to pay for it bump. (Don't tell my wife)
  13. You need it before the season ends BUMP, WW3 may come and you didn't ride The Ride.
  14. Thank you for the information. A short video to show what the board can do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RV99aAsv23w
  15. This board is in great condition base and edges, one small Nick on the tail needs a little epoxy. I prefer in my advanced age to have lighter boards hanging on the lift, it's a crud busting carving machine I'm just not riding it much. 750.00 cont. US
  16. Alternate personality? Carvers are complex, not judging. And tree wells are not a joke, a patrol at the Bird died in one. I tipped over in the trees after taking a wizz and used way too many muscles to release my step-in and get back up, luckily I was zipped back up ! I guess having someone there to look after you is a good thing.
  17. Never Summer Swift or any of the shaper series? my son is 175lbs and a strong rider, he can rail on their stiffer and bigger boards and he really loves his Heritage, boy he can make that board roar! Are you looking for damp or snappy?
  18. I spent 10+ years on a 20cm 182 and with a little effort a foot and a halfish was fun but yes in the lighter snow you have to push the Monster to ludicrious speeds to get to the joy part. Monsters are like Burton Supermodels, they ride shorter than they are. Here's hoping the Farmers Almanac is correct, this one like the last one!
  19. could you take this out in 2 feet of fresh and have it float? Love the length and width! "that's what she said!", totally serious here.
  20. Wow my head is spinning on this topic, all I know is board stiffness, scr and board tiltness doesn't change the size of the trees at the edges of the runs and if I'm not 100 percent on my game even the best board builder can't make those trees any softer. I don't know what magic Bruce puts in the Contra but I've ridden such a varied range of snow conditions this year and made the biggest turns to the tightest turns that I'm still trying to wipe the grin off my face. Thank you again Bruce
  21. I'm sure that she was excited if it compares to my experience, Bruce has found pure magic in the Contra. Holds an edge like it will never let go, at the same time feels so relaxed and forgiving. Makes big round turns but you set it on edge and it goes sideways ! Damp but springy, playful and easy. Softer snow, ice and all between I don't have anything bad to say. I love my Monster for PowMow but I'm afraid I won't be taking her out anymore. I am having so much fun on the Contra it's sad that I'm wearing a mask because everyone is missing the big grin on my face! See you on Friday, Sunday or Monday? YES I deserve a four day weekend !
  22. Thanks, It's got a lot of compliments in the lift line. I'm up there on most Fridays and Sundays. Look for me on Hidden and the triple.
