Hey Bricky, I haven't received a PM from you in case you thought that you had sent it. Khanh

171 Coiler VSR AM - metal construction, ptex top sheet. 18.5 cm waist! Yes, it's a carving board, not an all mountain board. Or that's what I bought it and used it as. Turning radius, xtra tight, probably low about 10m average. Built for a 140 lb rider. T171 VSR T AM 012 AT1 - 6.1 + 5 Light marks on the base except for the worse shown. When I bought it there was a ding near the logo, so I marine epoxied it as shown. I had it tuned once, base has structure. $225 + shipping

167 Nidecker Proto - the all mountain version that carves very well. This is the last iteration of the Proto, about 2011. Carbon construction. Top sheet is in good condition, some light marks from when I bought it. F2 binding marks, and slight soft boot binding marks from when I bought it as well. I pretty much hard booted only on it. Base is good, light marks except for the included photo. It's 22.5 cm waist, SCR about 9m - 9.5m or so? Comes with stomp pad and tail protection as seen in the photo. $250 + shipping

There hasn't been many reviews or other info on the WogoCoco so I thought I'd share my brief experience with it at MCC. These are only my experiences and thoughts, so your mileage may vary. My build is a 174 19.5 cm waist and I asked Bruce for 11.5 SCR. He said he offered 11 or 12.2, but would see what he could do. Therefore I don't really know what I received. Before riding it I was reading comments for the Contra cores and folks saying you need to ride centered and perhaps move your bindings a bit from centered on the inserts. Also I read comments that they don't turn as tightly as other boards of similar SCR. With these in my mind, I was a bit hesitant and cautious. MCC provided us with a lot of varying conditions. Monday morning was perfect hero snow that got warmer and softer with each run. I took the first run on my T4 Nirvana Energy, 19.5cm waist and 10.5/12.7/12 SCR. I got the T4 last year, and also have ridden the same specs T3 Nirvana since 2015. The T4 definitely grips more than the T3 version. I wanted to get a feel for things with the Nirvana and do a back to back comparison of same trails, similar conditions. Nirvana gripped perfectly, felt great first run. Switched to the Wogo immediately for a 2nd run. I mounted the bindings as I do with all my boards, centered on the inserts for my stance width. Felt like the turn shape was different, not a sharp hook on entering turns like the Nirvana. Turns felt a little bigger, not much. Rode the entire run, felt good, but switched back to the Nirvana since this was day 1 of MCC - didn't want to do it on a new unfamiliar board. Tuesday and Wednesday of MCC were varying conditions of rain/wet snow/wet powder on Tuesday and varying groom to soft surface over loose frozen granular under Wednesday. Thursday's conditions became perfect for comparison. It was fast and firm, but you could still get an edge in. Crunchy frozen over groomed sorta granular. But it held if you got an edge in, not pushing away. Again, first run with the familiar T4 Nirvana. Felt good again, a few turns for warm up to trust the edges for the day and off we went. Switched to Wogo for 2nd run, went down the same run, and WOW, it gripped like mad on the crunch! I also noted on my Nirvana at the top of this run I needed to pull over after about 4 turns due to picking up a bit of speed. Not with the Wogo. On this day it was finishing turns easily in what seemed to be smaller turns to scrub the speed. Went back to do the same run, similar results. But this time, instead of going out to the bottom of the main at Turner, I went to a trail dredman introduced us to for photo ops on Monday - Far Pig Chute. It's semi steep at the start and widish, but funnels and narrows between trees at the bottom. With the fast and firm crunchy conditions, I wasn't sure... Set off and carved the start no issue, entered between the trees and was carving small little turns and my speed seemed to be super slow, finishing each turn to scrub speed. No grip issues, and it made things seem a lot less narrow and steep than they were. After a few more runs I got to thinking - my Nirvana was the first run of the day. I wonder if I wasn't warmed up and trusting my edges. So I swapped back to the Nirvana and went down the same run I had just gone down (a different than the Nirvana had taken before that day). When it got to a crunchy section, I don't know if it or my mind lost confidence but I wasn't carving as well with the feeling in my feet. I was picking up speed and not finishing turns easily. Went down to finish at Far Pig Chute - carved ok in the wide with some speed checks, but couldn't do the narrow section between the trees. I even stopped and restarted to have no speed but couldn't do it. Thinking maybe my legs were tired at this point, I switched back to the Wogo again and did the same exact trails. Top was fine, speed was in check, smaller turns. Far Pig Chute - carved wide through the narrow section with ease. It wasn't my legs. At this point my opinion on super firm, crispy, crunchy snow is the Wogo is far better than a T4 Nirvana Energy. On hero snow or softer snow, I don't think you'd notice too much of a difference - but I don't have enough time on the Wogo on this snow to know. Things of note - I didn't have to change my binding positions from being centered on the inserts nor my riding style. I do ride with weight forward on both toe and heel sides, and do the same Nirvana or Wogo. I do tend to get the board high on edge immediately on hard turns, and the Wogo seems to love that to carve small turns, more so than the Nirvana.

We have Sean Martin to thank for these great photos of us enjoying ourselves at MCC.

Ask for hip dragging and you'll receive hip dragging

174 Wogo 19.5cm waist - I asked Bruce for 11.5m SCR, and he said he didn't offer it, but he'd try. Not sure what I got, I guess we'll see 174 A/T - 21cm waist, 10.5m SCR. It's intended to be for just light pow/crud/changing conditions. It's a carving board first, A/T second.

Bruce came through with the boards for me to ride for the first time at Whitefish/MCC. 174 WogoCoco and 174 Contra A/T

I'm in with Orangey above!!

Glad the setup works for you Corey. As mentioned above, I only use it when no one's around. Otherwise I only listen on the lifts. Yes, hearing things about to hit you are essential

Main reason? I'm too light for it. I started riding it at 150 lbs, and it was fine. Last season and again this season, I'm down to 135 lbs. Comparing it to my Angrry's, I can feel the difference in effort to flex it. I also have a lot of overlap in boards. I've got 2 Angrry's and acquired a Kessler 162 late last season. I rode it two mornings last season. Previously, I probably only put perhaps 6 half days on it.

Donek MK Top sheet is perfect. No marks that I know of. I had tail protection on, so no lift line marks. No binding marks either. Base has a couple very light marks. $650 + shipping

Prior MFR 162, 25 cm waist Base has some marks, nothing majorly deep. A tune should take most out easily. Edges have lots of life and currently pretty sharp. $125 plus shipping

They are still available. I'm in contact with a member who's measuring their feet for fit, but otherwise, they are available. Please PM me if you have any questions. Thanks.

With only carpet boarding experience since I purchased them this summer, they seem to be very similar to RC11's. I know they're supposed to be stiffer, so I may change that opinion when on the snow. RC11's compared to Deeluxe 225 or Raichle 224's (which I think feel very similar)? RC11's are stiffer side to side in F2 Race Ti bindings (standard), much less side to side movement. I didn't mind the side to side movement, I don't think it affected the reaction of tipping the board on edge. Stiffer side to side didn't seem to affect my riding after adjusting to it a bit. Forward flex with DGSS/soft springs is stiffer than the Deeluxe or Raichle's. But examining photos and videos from last season, I'm able to squat down on my rear leg still, just not as easily. I've purchased Red tongues to try out with the RC12's this year to try to get slightly easier forward flex on the rear leg. I'll still run the normal black tongues on the front leg at first. Keep in mind I'm 135 lbs as well, so these may not be issues with heavier riders.

I found when I shell tested UPZ versus Deeluxe/Raichle, the lengths seem to be about equal. These boots were too large for me. Short version of the story - I purchased them from a member, who they were too small for and couldn't return to UPZ. So they were new when I received them. I was told they were M26, looked up charts for UPZ sizing, and saw some charts reference the sole length as M26 so I took a chance. Nope, they're M27 and the Intuitions included are M27. I wanted to try the boots to see if I liked the stiffness of UPZs, as I've ridden softer hard boots in the past (Deeluxe 225's, Raichle 224's), and I'm a lightweight guy. So I used them last season and did end up liking them. I've purchased M26's this season to replace them. Note the shell test mentioned was on appropriate M25/M26 boots compared to the same, not these M27's. The volume of the liners do make a huge difference though. I probably can fit in a UPZ M25 with the stock liner or a low volume liner, but with the red or black Deeluxe liners that I prefer, it was too tight due to the volume of the liner. My feet are 26.1 and 26.3. No, I only have the Intuition liners for these boots, not the stock liner. I bought a pair of Lime RC12's in M26

UPZ RC11 Lime color, M27.5. Stamping on the heel is 278/299. With Intuition Pro Wrap liners, not the stock liners. These were new last season and I put about 30 days on them. The left boot's power strap frayed slightly at an edge. Still completely functional. Please see a photo of it attached. $375 F&F plus shipping https://drive.google.com/open?id=1RSenzA8G3Kq2A1rfTxlAuXovm7ruvxQJ https://drive.google.com/open?id=1V0kFAkQTMlcMy7E4c_usxMlqnypFMO0A https://drive.google.com/open?id=1LlaADSeB0Zc1_LsmzTg4-xScCW9RYamn

Raichle 125 in M25.5, used about 3 days only. I bought these as New Old Stock about 3 years ago to try downsizing to M25.5 Raichle/Deeluxe. I only used them for about 3 days that season. The printed information on size is still completely legible on the heel. I'm including a fully heat moldable Deeluxe thermoflex liner, not the stock liner. If you really want the stock liner that's unused, I can send it instead of the thermoflex. $150 Paypal F&F plus shipping costs. I've already packed them in a box. The box dimensions are 14 x 18 x 5.5 and 10 lbs.

Here's my music setup I put together last year. I had looked at the Outdoor Tech Chips Bluetooth and wired and both received bad reviews with failures and spotty Bluetooth, so I found these motorcycle helmet speakers and the Bluetooth module. The speakers fit inside the ear piece of snowboard helmets and sound pretty good for its purpose. The Bluetooth receiver never had any drop out problems, and is easy to turn play/stop with the large center button. I do need to remove my hand from my mitts to turn on/off, but still convenient. I usually turn them off at the top of the lift if at my hill when it's busy, and turn back on getting on the lift. Otherwise, on a weekday, I leave them on when it's not too crowded. I can also take a phone call with them and my wife says she can hear me just fine with the Bluetooth mic by my ear. I use much better and more expensive earphones and headphones at work, at home and on planes. But I don't want to risk damaging something more expensive in the elements. You'll see from the 2nd photo, I was out on a freezing rain day last year and the Bluetooth receiver was covered in a layer of ice, but was playing all through that time and didn't take any damage after the ice melted from it. The insert image from URL doesn't seem to be working for me, so the photo links are below.

This was one of the ones made with titanal. You can see the metal layer in the tail cutout. Very damp and grippy. Top sheet has minor marks and scuffs, nothing too bad. 8/10 probably. Base is good, only very light marks. Edges are sharp and thick. Lots of camber left. 13m sidecut radius, 19 cm waist. $125 plus shipping https://drive.google.com/open?id=1iNik81yAIfh4DLwKRnjZZqrcO7sblQiX https://drive.google.com/open?id=1UU2bboMaRRJy6WrxSkTNDUYPJ0MEyAAb https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YvnMKLi1yaDB11KKN4-xPeV9NHc11RDM

I bought this new in the fall, rode it about 2 hours last weekend. It feels too stiff for my 135 lbs. They made these pretty beefy. Pretty much like new top and bottom.
