Is the Morrow Indy a bad board or was i just biased not wanting to like it ?
I did find quite a few reviews and they were not too favorable.
or maybe it's too long for me (1.60 compared to my PJ 5.6 (1.56 m) (and i think they don't measure from the same place))
Have boards improved a lot in the last 10 years?
I am 140 pounds, 5'8". i have been riding for over 20 years but not every year and recently only maybe two weekends to 1 week per year.
I started in France when a snowboard was very similar to a monoski (same width in the middle as in the ends) making turns very difficult especially when you learn on your own, as instructors did not do snowboards.
I learned the hard way: you move your body this way, you fall it hurts. try again differently!
My style is to stay low, move my body the right way so i do the least effort possible and let the board do the work in the curve. Make nice smooth curves that are not too ugly to watch. Try to cut the snow, not to push it down.
I live in Albany, CA so we go to Tahoe. I used to go to Heavenly but with 3 kids, their lift tickets is out of my league now and we go to north tahoe, Mont Rose or Tahoe Donner with the kids.
an old video of 2007 is on youtube.
