If you decide to sell the Coiler please put me first in line.

Mine is the model year before that Rossi. So that is why I would love the buy your metal Coiler.I probably wouldn't know how to act with as nice of a board like that.

Please put me on the list if you would. I'm very interested in buying this board. I desperately need an upgrade from my 90's 163 Rossi Slayer.

Just got back from trenching, and the wife likes the 165 so I'll have to pass also.
These boards are really fun carving boards. Whoever picks this up will love it. I've ridden mine for a couple of years off and on and it is a Blast all around the mountain.

I am very interested in buying this board. I currently have the same board in a 165 length. It has killer rebound and carves well, plus rides crud and powder.
Send me an email. I will reply when we get back from riding Snowbasin today.

Are they still available? Called the number, left a message, no reply. Still for sale?

Thanks everyone for the welcome. Sorry I didn't reply sooner as I was in Moab for the week riding mountain bikes.
Nils, that is me in the short video. I'm thinking the timeframe is probably the same winter we went to France or the winter of '82. Since I am in my Mother Karens one piece that was part of my Team gear. Also I was spelling my name in the snow in the other video.(only guys can do that.)
The other people on the trip were, Matt Ryan, Scott Jacobson (Jake), and Paul Loxton (from Australia via Chile.) I hope I spelled your last name right Jake.
We had modified our original strap bindings to a nylon strap toe piece and bungee cord heel with BMX pads for padding. They worked OK for the time, but nothing like my current plates and hardshell boots.
It was truly a great time then, and none of us envisioned what it would eventually become. Now I'm just trying to have FUN and keep a VERY low profile, you know, let everyone else that came after have their glory. I'm just thankful that Dimitri is such a brilliant guy and pretty much invented the sport, Thanks Dim!

In the winter of 1981 the V.P. of Winterstick (Renee Sessions)three friends and I went to Les Arcs to "introduce wintersticking" to the skiers of France at the request of Alain Gaiumard (sp) who was the mountain manager at the time.We were called the "Winterstick Team" by Dimitri and Renee and also the French press.
So I wonder if the name just carried over for a while until the term snowboarding came about.
