sold!

I'm interested, very interested. Can you send me your PayPal account info?

I too was tempted by this auction. A little too short for my personal preference, but it could have been a decent guest board. Hopefully the new owner joins bomber and fills us in in the ride.

Me: neon green helmet, white pants with red and black pin-stripes, blue jacket Friday: F2 Silberpfeil (grey-ish in color) Saturday: Donek Proteus with Python top sheet Sunday: Coiler VSR all white. We talked in the parking lot before starting on Friday, you commented "Nice board", and I forgot your name...

Chris, thanks for the kind words. I'm bummed we couldn't ride much over the weekend. I had too many people to meet and entertain to stick to just one group. I'm glad you got the chance to sample some different boards. Here's my summary of events for the weekend. Friday was a great day with the F2 Silberpfeil 162 on the back side and all over the mountain. That thing cuts tight turns and holds an edge like no other short carving board I have ever experienced. A few times the thing would cut so fast, I was already transitioning into my next turn before I was ready. Saturday was an amazing day with the Donek Proteus 170 on Chair 9. I spent the ride up catching my breath and the ride down was a combination of dragging my right knee and left hip in the snow, it felt like I was on rails. I pretty much did the same on Chair 8 and Roller coaster. I even rode through the terrain parks a few times with a few jibbers I met up with and laid down some nice carves leading up to a few of the smaller jumps. I surprised a lot of freestylers and myself on that one. On Sunday, I rode the Coiler FC VSR 169 with a very cool guy named Ladia on a Virus. We rode Chair 9 a few times then headed over to Cornice and I seemed to be able to slarve it decently. We camped out on Fascination under Broadway Express and cut it up pretty good. I'm not sure what I want to get next to play with. I think a plate system like the Bomber Boiler plate or Donek AF plate to add some high speed traction and maybe a longer split tail board from Alpine Punk just for the wow factor. If I'm gonna have "fancy pants" and a noticeable helmet, I should have a board that screams "look at me". I want to say thanks to the following people in no particular order: Neil (nekdut) for taking some time out of his day earlier in the season to talk with me and give me some good advice. That advice was to buy a metal board. Game changer for sure. Theo (king crimson) for taking time out of his busy day in the photo booth to critique my form, provide tech support on my bindings, and for offering me a floor to sleep on. Chris (2stroke) for being a genuinely cool guy that I met by selling a board here. He helped finance my year by buying some of my wares and letting me crash on the couch for a weekend. Thanks again Chris. John (hey john) for being ultra cool, letting me borrow an amazing snowboard and selling it to me. Ladia for being a great coach over the weekend, giving me some pointers that helped me shred up the "steeps". Thanks for the good stories on the lift. Last but not least, Kim, for being able to take and dish out the sarcasm and jokes, Your jabs about my fancy pants hurt me to the core, haha! See y'all next year.

While riding my Donek Proteus with the python top sheet on April 20: "Yo, sick board" - lift operator "What is that, a ski-board?" - random hot chick with douche bag jibber BF "Nice carves" - skier on the chair from above "So you're the one putting the half moon ruts down the run" - skier in the lift line "Dude, that board is so sick" - jibber drooling on my topsheet. "Why can't you just go straight?" - pissed off open coater

Damn you guys! Someone buy these so I don't get tempted. I really kind of liked these and I am thinking of buying another set just to have around.

John, I'd absolutely love to try out that F2 for myself. I'm looking for a shorter slalom board for those days that it's packed and I need to dodge traffic. Can I take it up to the mountain to try it out? I don't think I'll be putting my guest on a real carving board just yet, but if I had one that would work for her, we might try it out. I need to get her to carve some turns on her freeride/freestyle type board first, then maybe we can work up to something next year. Let me know if you are comfortable with me borrowing your board, I may just want to buy it off you if it feels like I am hoping it does.

I'm planning on one last trip this weekend. If you are interested in connecting, reply to this thread and we can exchange information to make meeting up on the mountain easier. If you just show up on the mountain, look for a fumbling carver wearing white pants with wacky red stripes, blue jacket and a neon green helmet. That's me. Also I'm looking to borrow a small carving board suitable for a beginner female that weighs under 120 lbs. Boots will probably be AT boots rented at Mammoth Mountain Outfitters.

SOLD! Can't wait to try this out next weekend

I'm super interested. I talked with Sean and he said it would be a decent board for me. Please send me an email through the site and we can coordinate off-line. Thanks

Sold 3 weeks ago, the first message in the thread was updated to indicate that the item has been sold.

Here is your chance if the size works for you. http://www.ebay.com/itm/261187962984

You have 100 lbs on me and I really just started carving so it's probably too stiff for my weight/ability. Free bump for a beautiful board.

I'm interested, is there any specs on the flex pattern? What weight rider will this board accomodate?

$69 lift tickets if you make friends with a season pass holder. I'm pretty easy to befriend. Just takes a few beers.

Looks like a mighty fine carve there.

Yes they are still available, I will post a reply to this thread and update the first message to indicate that they are sold. If you don't see a mention of the item being sold, it is very safe to assume they are available. I want to be VERY clear on this as it has come to my attention by a few people that the thread is confusing because of earlier messages mentioning other tongues. The tongues I have for sale are the silver/light gray, dirty white, whatever color you want to call them. They can be viewed in this photo: They are between the black and dark gray tongues. UPZ says they are 140 flex. Please don't ask for my opinion about them as I have not ridden with them, I am a light weight person looking to ride red tongues. $60 shipped to the lower 48, PayPal only. No credit cards or Bill Me Later accepted, mark the transaction as personal. Thanks for reading.

Weekend sale. $200 shipped to lower 48 until 12 AM 3/11/2013 see above post for PayPal info. No CC's use the personal/gift option.

Still for sale, help me get rid of these so I can buy the softer tongues.
