Sure, and that's also part of your homework anyway... Frank spends plenty of time explaining to his customers what he has in mind before a full custom board goes into production... at least to the new ones. The ones who trust him for many years already are really quite relaxed and always look forward to that very first day of riding. Always SO exiting :D

:lol: they can copy the shape all day long, it will never be the same (or even close) board...

Congrats! Sure looks great. Enjoy! Hope you are coming to Aspen in Feb!!!

I strongly believe you would change your mind after you rode a “for you custom build Virus” for 3-4 days. Too bad, you will probably never know :rolleyes: Cheers!

Love it! Thanks for sharing.

Jack, actually thinking about it, I feel you are not committing enough. You know, life is too short and to let such an event pass by again is one of those things you will sure regret in a few years when your body isn’t able anymore to shred like 20 year old. Especially somebody like you, who has such a passion for our sport! I really hope you will consider and somehow make it possible. Also, your wife is probably happy to get rid of you for a few days and, she knows you have a blast with the boys. What we all need! Cheers!

Oh man, Jack, sorry to hear you’re not coming, really! You know me, I am the last who would even mention a “carve off” since I am a strong believer that nobody could win anyway (at your skill level)… you know what I mean...btw, Ruthie’s is kinda out, we leave Ruthies to the beginners these days and use it to get over to Aztek ;) Cheers! All good, just fun

Istvan, its fun to read but this is probably going nowhere, as most times. I know too many really good riders and everybody has their own style. Styles with no names. At a certain skill level there is no right or wrong in style anymore for carving. Riding with fellow carvers from all around the world proves that. So when I read some like this: I have no words and rather get the popcorn and listen in... Cheers! But I have an idea. Jack, I assume and really hope you come to the SES/World Carving Session. (You skipped the last one already and said you would come to the next one again right?) Pogo, I think you are coming right? So you two can go ride together and show each other the “right” style ;) I will follow you guys with my skinny Cyborg and play judge as well, oh wait, there is nothing to judge because you are both highly skilled riders with your own style :D

:D

Max! Thanks for the info. I heard really good things about the new boot, especially the liner and aren’t the new boots also over 2lbs. lighter? Cheers!

The election is obviously a BIG one. Hopefully everyone who is allowed to vote also does so and this country gets back on track! Besides that, sure like to see what Bomber has to present, expectations are high now ;) … and my Virus shipment is coming soon as well…

Max! I heard you guys had a great time and kicked a$$ on those new Evo's. I have to admit, I am a bit jealous! About time to make some turns togehter again... ;)

Here is another picture of the latest Virus beauties... Tantalus Evolution! This exact board was ridden in Soelden Austria Sat/Sun and the feedback I received this morning from the owner was just fantastic. Very stable at high speeds with major bite and incredible acceleration/pop out of the turn... Can't wait… :D

Geez Hans, are you counting my boards? ;) :) "Ride" on budy! Cheers! PS. Btw. the Zylon (Gladiator) board I got 4 years or so ago probably has more camber and torsional stiffness (if not the same) today then many others ever had :o

yea, soooo sexy!!!

Frank (Virus) just sent me some pics of my new finished and favorite weapon of choice, Custom Cyborg Evolution!!!!!! Once it arrives (together with my new beautiful "La Glisse 76 powder-gun") I will take some more pictures… Please don’t ask me what's in it... Detail of the Virus metal decal on the board

VERY COOL! Enjoy the ride... Cheers!

We will sure be there! Arriving in Aspen January 10th and will stay till April… Really looking forward to see everybody again, especially Joerg and his Pureboarding group and all the Frozen-Backsider of course!!! Seems we will have serious (European) party time :D Cheers!

One good it has, even lesser people on the hill

yup, here too

I try to take some pics tomorrow and post

O-Sin 4807 168cm with original wood wall display hanger. This board is/was hanging in my garage from day one in it’s original wood wall display (yellow), which was only available to a limited amount of Dynastar reseller. Giving it up as a set. Email me for more info. icom@netwood.net Thanks Ray

Raichle SB 225 Mondo 23 Blue with yellow and red racing tongue. ’08 Thermoflex liner molded only once. Perfect condition! Email me for more info: icom@netwood.net Thanks, Ray

All the best for Kimo from us! Tell him to please get well soon!!!

These two pics were taken by Richard (Switzerland). He was part of Joerg’s (Pureboarding) group in April. Yea, I got lucky, two really high-quality shots he took.
