It has been a while Matt, nice looking board and good to see you are able to get out to the mtns from TX

JD did you run this by Bruce? Does Bruce know you are in a non-committed relationship?

the stock liners are junk ditch them. I have the RC11's measure 27.8cm and I am in the 28M boot with Intuition Power Wrap liners. Awesome fit, great boot. I am now upgrading to the stiffest tongue. Intuition Power Wrap

Not on a Tuesday, I was there on Saturday. I'll be there next Thrs, Fri during the day.

T32 CEO @MR. JOHN DEERE ! most certainly wants someone to fondle his "equipment"

Ben talk to me about the new stuff from Lawson's haven't had any yet.

This BX board rocks, and is in great shape. TT babies his boards.

Correct, those are Catek's. My son rides that board.

Jason I have R55 Clubman S that is now 10 years old and just upgraded to a Tesla Model 3. My son will get the Clubman next year. This the the first time I am going EV, the acceleration is impressive, specs 0-60 is 4.5 but it is actually 4.2 @trailertrashand I got to experience Alex racing this weekend, great fun. https://youtu.be/U2SdrlLdRNk

Sorry Lee I have not had the privilege to ride an original Madd. The TI Madd has a lot of camber and pop, more so then the 2nd gen Madds. It definitely has the qualities of a typical Madd board but felt a little bit stiffer than the second generation

Interested in the plate. Can you show me pictures of the hardware please?

Guys, I had this board before I sold it, there are only 2 of these prototypes left. Please read this link about the condition, ride quality and history of this board. http://forums.alpinesnowboarder.com/topic/43110-madd-158-ti-prototype-for-sale-limited-addition/ If you have any questions on the board please direct them at me. Kate can only tell you how she stumbled on the board and is now trying to sell it.

I feel like I owe some more background and explanation to this community and especially would like to set the record straight about my good friend Fin Doyle. Fin founded Bomber in 1993, invented the first Trench Digger binding and in 1999 created BomberOnline, the alpine snowboard community we have today. Fin and Michelle successfully ran Bomber with very tight margins. The way they managed to keep it going and out of the red was closely managing costs. I have run and co-lead 6 ECES's over the course of 8 years and with that developed some very strong relationships and friends in the alpine snowboard industry. Talking with Fin I knew what it took to keep that business a float and was proud of the work and dedication that he put into his life long passion. In 2016 I helped run the last ECES. This was the first one that the new owners of Bomber showed up to in a brand new decked out van, which I was rather shocked to see. I made a mental note of their spending as I knew they couldn't afford that with the margins that Bomber was producing. Less than 6 months into the new ownership there where signs of the wheels starting to fall off the bus. News started hitting the forum about orders not being shipped, the stellar customer service that the "old Bomber" provided soley by Michelle was essentially non-existent. Those in the know that were seeing the signs that there were some serious issues with the way the new owners were running Bomber kept it from the public and this forum. I personally started stocking up on gear as I knew the end was not too far off. Once the news hit the forum all hell had broken lose already. I know a lot of you had strong relationships with the new owners, yes they may be nice people, but lets focus on the facts. Embezzling money to cover your spending habits will ruin you for life. Fin built this company with passion, integrity trust and had some life long loyal customers. The new owners never once asked FIn for advice on how to run the company, how to run sessions, they "thought" they had it all figured out. My heart goes out to Fin Doyle, he lost everything and watched his creation blow up in a very short period of time because of some very bad decisions by the new owners.

Felony charges have been filed to the former owners of Bomber https://www.aspentimes.com/news/former-city-of-aspen-official-at-red-brick-charged-with-four-felonies/

This is great to hear all that history from Hansjürg and his devotion to the sport.

Order coming shortly Jack nice work great looking hats

These are great and a lot easier to work with than the Bomber bags. Email Sean for Alpine board sizes. https://www.donek.com/product/donek-board-sleeve/

Interested, do you have another file or just the diamondstone?

I have an older Incline and have ridden Alex’s Flux at Stratton several times. If you are a carver the Flux is a better board for that the Incline.

I am surprised @Jack Michaud has not commented on the comparison yet. We both have the 168 KST and have fallen in love with the Kessler “magic”. If you are 175lbs+ and an experienced rider the 171 will be to soft for you. I rode it at one of our ECES events and was over flexing the nose of the 171.

@patmoore you should pick up the Kessler 171 from Bomber stock that is being sold on ebay. Arden has the same board,

Yes they slot into the current stock holes.

Are making these? I am very interested. Would be great if you can get them in black.

Correct....
