  1. I prefer the plastic F2 intec verses the metal Fintec ones. because plastic doesn't conduct cold like metal. As for removal I use a yeti bottle opener tethered to jacket on the lift and try if possible not to step on snow before stepping in. But if you have to paddle around I use the Dakine stomp pad that has this nice scraper along with the crabgrab stomp pad to clear snow which is very similar to the dakine one mentioned earlier.

    Brand spankin new Nidecker Blade 158 and Nobile N58 (thank you Lukas) will facilitate my attempts at K-carving on my first and second 2 hour/10 run days. 
    New Thirst XC and my black first XC (favorite board) and a nearly new SF. 
    I also have access to like new Coilers (172 AM, 166 and 162 Contras)AE0B93AE-D453-4B7D-BD34-053EDF70D994.jpeg.2366ab8cdbbbc409c1d5e8815c6c6d25.jpeg which I gave to a friend of mine who is the only carver I have ever found at Crystal. 

    That new XC stance set back is further back than the old one. Is that Marks magic or your preference?

    Hey SB,

    Yeah that seems like a great board at a great price.

    A 19 waist is a little skinny for my tastes and 28.5 boots but can you send a photo of Seans tech stamp in the middle of the board......I want to confer with the maestro himself on this one.

    Thanks,                                        BJ

  4. I'm the original owner. Bought it December 2020 from a shop that had it for a a couple of years collecting dust. I rode it maybe 15 times. My guess is its a production board. I would expect Sean would know the finer details. I weigh 200# dry. Its perfect for me with mondo 27.5. Board number is 48996 It feels a little flexier than my SF 162. Flex index on SF is .281. Board has never had a plate on it. It has one small nick on top sheet in picture other than that its in awesome shape. Edges are sharp with no mods or grindings. Its a fun little board! I would let it go for $400.00 shipped conus. Let me know if ya need more pics.

  5. I have a really nice Donek Metal FC 163 with UPM mounts in almost perfect condition 9.5. Side cut 7.5-9.5. 19cm waist. I'll let you have first crack at it since you've been interested in a tight turny board. Let me know either way because its going on the market very soon.

    There's something about the Thirst construction that makes the boards resonate. Tap one and it's a little like tapping a crystal glass, it rings! My Superconductor roars like a 2-stroke motorbike on firm stuff.

    I like the noise because everyone can hear me coming a mile away
