    No.. As that method is tough because you don't know if in  stock.. Especially the 178.. Almost all on that and Rakuten stated pre order... 

    Also most won't ship either.. I gave up on that method.. 

    I used a third party service.. Pretty slick too.. It's a process but pretty good results for my first purchase..

    The Team Edition 201 is a whole different machine and is considerably stiffer both torsionally and longitudinally.

    Good to know The stick goes both ways...uh wait did I say that out loud...doh..

    So how loud is it?  Did they use any rubbers with it so it feels damp...  hate loud tingy glass sounding boards... (insert metal here)

    @fishrising, I have seen many using the F2’s and even TD3s ( @P06781 lives them on his).

    The new Standard build Tankers are a little bit stronger than the older ones and the Team Edition 201 is definitely stiff enough to handle them.

    So how well do they carve these days....im interested..but worried they are not torsionally stiff and twist like a noddle..wish they were metal..

    Review?

    Flux XV should be on your radar.

    Not into Flux at all.. I have a pair or Switch back session bindings.. They are light and stiff but no cant.. They are good but I need a second set of bindings so it's between the Hefe's or O drives.. The high back on the O Drive seem higher and wider up top which seem would work better at higher angles.. 

    I have a very very unique board coming from halfway around the globe... Took some doing to get it... Hopefully arrives in a week or two...

    had a long conversation with Now/Jones rep about this as I thought they were very similar too, but when you ride them you can feel that they are very different and the O-drive is actually quite a bit stiffer.

    Can you compare the El Hefe's to the O Drive next please...

    switched from Burton Genesis X to Now O-Drive and I would do it again.  Stiffer and more responsive.

    Good choice..my friend bought the carbon back Now Recon.. Nice stuff... I'll be trying to get the O Drives as well... 

    When that special finance project arrives... Oh do tell... 

    The Ride El Hefe is still a great go to as it has two different canted foot beds that come with them..

    I need to part with a special board...  a Custom Coiler Nirvana Energy with 7 Segmented Sidecut.  SCR is 10/12/11  20cm waist width..

    Stance is aprox using Bomber TD3  50cm to 58cm

    This was a spendy board as I had to buy the sidewall material and then ship it to Canadia as well.

    Only used two days in Montana.  shows minimal boot touching marks and binding placement marks..

    The base did pick up two small scratches about 8 inch long very minor but im a picky person...but I dont' have the pads and scotch brite to remove them...thought you should know...  don't know if the pics show it..

    Price is $725 plus shipping!!..OBO ......FOB is Cleveland (44140) and UPS ground is from $40 to about $85 out to Cali...
