Unfortunately, I will be relocating to Central America permanently, and I have to cut my quiver down significantly for the move, so sadly, this must go; if I honestly thought I would have more opportunities to ride this, I would definitely keep it :( This is a like new Winterstick Swallowtail snowboard, in length 183. It was ridden just once in deep powder in Utah, which was an epic experience. It rides literally like a quick turning knife through butter...a surfboard feel on snow, that rides much shorter than its actual length. If you look on the Winterstick website, this retails for $1200; the one I'm selling is a much better colorway in my opinion (black with detailing of the wood grain core, versus the blue one they are currently selling), so get it now for a much better price!!! From Winterstick: "This is the board that has defined Winterstick from the beginning (serving up rocker since 1972). It features the traditional long and wide rockered nose, camber between the bindings and the iconic long swallowtail. Put these three aspects of this board together and you get a board that rides like a Cadillac when you lean forward and turns like a Porsche when you engage the swallow. Don't be intimidated, this board rides much shorter than it is due to the sidecut stopping at maximum width of the nose." Shipping in the continental US is a flat rate of $60; elsewhere on the planet and I would need your exact address for an accurate quote. I take PayPal ONLY, which protects you and me as buyer and seller. However, if you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, then you are more than welcome to check out the board in person, and pick it up on the spot, for a cash payment. If race boards are more your speed, I am also selling a Sims Burner Split Tail Race Board in size 188 cm (also in mint/like new condition for $500 + $50 shipping in the continental US). Please don't hesitate to contact me for questions at awesome_auctions@live.com. Thanks for your time. ED

Reluctantly, I am selling some boards I no longer need (and have barely used due to the crappy Tahoe winters over the last few years): Sims Burner 188, Sims Burner 197, both of them split tails. I've ridden them no more than 3 times a piece, so their condition is EXCELLENT. Seriously, if it weren't for the binding marks, you would probably think they were new. I've been going a bit shorter and much narrower in my riding, so I don't want these to gather dust in my closet. Anyway, drop me a line, if you're interested, and ready to make a FAIR offer.

2013 - 2014 sale!!! 1) Sims Burner 197 - ridden maybe 2-3 times? Super mellow for a long race board, and really easy to lay down. It looks new, other than the light binding marks. This is great for wide open groomers. There are plenty of places you can ride this in Tahoe, but I stick to my shorter, quicker race boards now because of all of the trail traffic This was more of a collector's item for me, too, as they don't make split tail race boards anymore. 2) Sims Burner 188 - same details as the 197, except shorter. 3) Burton Supermodel 168 (custom painted red at the factory) - This was my favorite freeride board back when it first came out, because it turned so quickly, and floated perfectly in the pow. I put about 20 days on this, and it was my board of choice for a pow day, or just a day in softboots. I have since gone with longer and stiffer freeride boards because I've put on some weight, but this is still one of my favorites. It has binding marks and surface scratches, but no damage. Anyway, I will take any REASONABLE offer for any of these; I am not desperate to sell, nor am I in any urgent need for cash. I just don't want to keep these as I don't ride them anymore, and feel like they are going to waste. Shipping would vary, but it would be anywhere from at least $40 - $60, as I would have to purchase or make a strong enough package, which I am not looking forward to, but will gladly do if the price is right. Of course, if you live somewhere in the Bay Area or Sacramento, we can always make plans to meet somewhere. Please hit me up if you are interested, and don't hesitate to ask questions. Thanks, and have a great season, where ever you may be in the world.

Are you saying $450 + shipping, or shipping included? This item is very oversized. Are you in the continental USA?

Wow, I don't know as it's been sitting in my closet for ages. I had it custom painted at the factory in Vermont, so it's at least 10 years old, but ridden a total of less than 10 days, and typically only in pow. That one's still in great condition, as the edges have never been touched, and there's no damage, other than surface scratches and binding marks. That one's only $200 shipped in the continental US.

$375 shipping included, but to the continental USA only. If you can pick it up in Sacramento, CA, then I am asking only $325. Let me know if you have questions. ED 916-616-4472

Well, I'm indeed in Kazachstan. What's wrong with that? You do think we're riding camels here?
We got a powder here and i'm always looking for a nice stuff to ride it :) I've send you and email, check out. May be my msg got in spam folder.
Victor.

It's actually a 197 and it's prestine, and so is the 188. I couldn't let that go for $200, though, sorry. Those would be about $300 a piece, plus shipping. You almost never see these for sale because people like to keep them :) It's actually true of the Undertaker, too, but it's more of a collector's item than anything else. Real cool looking, I think.

Hi, yes I can ship cants to NC, no problem. Please tell me what cants you are looking for. All I have are Burton ones, but some are 4x4 and some 3D, some 3.5 degree, and some 7 degree. Tell me what you need and I can check and get back to you, thanks.

Hi Keith, well mine looks really good with just some light surface scratches, that are more visible on black. I can do $200 + shipping, which would be at least $50+ because of the oversize charges. Would this work for you? I take checks, money orders (which both have to clear first), and PayPal, but you would have to pay the additional 2% PayPal charges me. Let me know, thanks.

The last buyer flaked, so I am re-posting. These work perfectly, and have been sitting in my closet (forgotten) for a few years. They're in great shape, as they have probably seen less than 3 or 4 days on snow. These are the "rat trap" type, and not the Physics type, which required those stupid toe hooks; you can use these with any standard hardboot, including many models of ski boots, as long as they have a compatible toe ledge. Why drill a hole in your boots to make them Intec-compatible, when you can just use any standard ski or snowboard hardboot and step in to these bindings? I was planning to use them this season, but I blew my right knee out earlier this summer, and I could use some extra cash right now. I'm only asking for $130 plus shipping (should be around $10 in the continental US), or if you live in the Sacramento area, you are more than welcome to pick them up. I do have a set of 4 x 4 or 3D disks for them, so you will get one set, but not both. Take a look at the pic, and let me know if you have any questions. I accept PayPal only, for offers which have to be shipped, and cash only, for local pick-up. These are also available on e-Bay as item # 111000111489, if you would rather bid on them. Have a great riding season tearing up those groomers :)

Are there any carvers out there looking for a season's pass to Sierra At Tahoe? They have some really EXCELLENT carving runs on the West Bowl, which is why I am there every season...except for this one I bought an unlimited season's pass from them last April with the Fast Pass option for the fast lift lines, but unfortunately over the summer, I tore my ACL :( I recently had surgery, but Sierra won't give me a refund. Instead, they are willing make an exception with their policy by allowing me to use it next year, or transfer it to someone else this year. It cost me $350, and Sierra is selling theirs for just under $500, so you would be getting a much better deal if you buy it from me. If you're interested, just pay me and we can call Sierra together to give them your new contact info for the transfer of the pass. The pass is even valid at Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows from Opening Day to December 21, 2012 and from April 15, 2013 to Closing Day. PayPal is even an option, as I've listed the pass on fleaBay, as well (type in item # 110985774302 in the search field). Check out my feedback and you'll know I'm legit :) If there's anyone interested, or you know of someone who is, please respond and I will e-mail you my contact phone. I am also selling a handful of carving boards in EXCELLENT condition, but I will post those later. Thanks for your time.
