  1. Steph your right on with the width.. just a tad bit too wide, I did get used to the edge to edge on it , like you said once you flip it on its edge you get all this pressure on it,, and BAMM :D it rails through everything.. now to only ride it in stuff that it was probably made for! lose the waist and it is a 170 with powder and all mountain capabilities.. crap! now what board do I ride..can you ever have too many??? ....Nah! just not enough! I recommend riding it if ya get a chance.. luv to hear your feedback..so far I think everyone that has ridden it got the same results.. Like I said,,no way would I have expected this kind of performance out of a picnic table..! "I like it!" attached is the nose width comparison to the 170 Right Said Shred
  2. All coments are pretty much right on.. like I said I pushed it hard. most of the time you wouldn't think about doing that to this kind of board most of the time you ride on the tail more but thats why I set it up towards the back so I would have more nose to push and drive. It carved like the dickens.. I had my 158 and then went right back to the BX.. once I got used to flipping it on to the edge.. I kinda really like it.. hmmm is wider better..dunno, it worked in this case.. Demo's should be set up at the SES along with some other goodies! Then after that Im sure Stratton and Shaggy would be the contact. Im just playing the Chuck Yeager of snowboards! Right said Shred,, thanks MADD!
  3. Maybe more next week,, but I gotta ride other boards too,, they are being neglected.. wanna run the Violator some more to give a report on that.. I am impressed the way this board rode and performed..but it did have the Shaggy tune..! its majic! or Macek!
  4. Well first ride for me! this is the first time I have ever riden anything the size of a picnic table! but I refused to set my bindings anything other than the usual 70/65. I have enclosed several pics so you could see that it actualy carves extremly well.. Its right up there with the 170,, I actually may like it even more.. I push the snot out of it.. the conditions where packed groomed fine granular for about 2 or 3 inches then the ice base below that! then to mashpotatoes later in the day! soft nose even softer tail but I could not tell.. I rode it just like I would anything else, I pushed and powered the nose like my carving boards and it took it all,, no fold or nothing! I ride with a 53cm stance and I set the bindings back on it to give me more nose than tail, almost as far back as I could with out losing my stance! Only thing I would change would be the width could use to loose 2cm or more..its wide!!!!!! but thats me ,, anything over 19.5 is wide.. sorry I'll do the actual measurement if someone needs it..maybe someone already knows?
