Scott, just sent you a PM

[Deeluxe 700s Sold]

Helping a friend sell some gear.  He is wanting to offload his Deeluxe boots to make room in the garage.  He bought these brand new about 4-5 years ago and wore them twice.  He couldn't get back into carving, so he is getting rid of them.  No real scuffs on them to speak of and even comes in the box they were purchased in.  Size 11 (29) and the shell is a 325mm (29.5).  Asking $250 plus shipping.  DM me for questions, or if your interested.

[2020 Burton Custom 162 Flying V for sale (Reduced!)]

Helping a buddy offload some of his board stock after his recent move.  Getting rid of this 2020 Custom Flying V.  This board was rode very lightly for 2 seasons.  It didn't even have bindings on it most of the time.  Board looks brand new.  Asking $250 plus shipping.  DM me with questions, or if you are interested.

[UPZ RC 10 Boots (Sold)]

Loved these boots.  Even though they are a size 11 and I am a 12, while snug, they fit me good.  I bought these brand new going into the 2018 season.   Scuffs form the wear of 2 decent seasons, other than that, they are in good shape.  Size 11 in  303/324mm outer shell.  Asking $250 + shipping.

[Deeluxe 700s (Sold)]

Normal scuffs on them.  Intek step-in heels with barely any wear.  329mm shell with a Size 13 inner liner.  I wear a size 12 and these fit me.  Asking $150 plus shipping.

[Coiler Nirvana 170 (19cm waist) (SOLD)]

I bought this second hand off of another guy a couple of years ago.  Great board, but I have too many board and need to thin the herd a bit.  It has a pair of Catek bindings on it.  Top sheet has a few sratches on the edges, but that is it.  The bottom is in great shape, no gouges that I am aware of (storage wax on it).  Board is rated for about 165-185 lb. rider.  If you want to talk to Bruce, 1 170 NFCE 015KH -6-7+5.  Asking $400 + shipping.  Ignore the '95 Prime.

Im size 11US and ride an donek Incline 162 with a 29.5cm waist with angles +33/-3 to be honest the width isn't much to worry about just expect to be a bit more aggressive with your edge change if you still wanting it to be snappy

Great to know.  Thanks!

Thanks Workshop!  That is what I was wanting to know!  You sound very much like myself, carving board riding since the early 90s.  I cant wait until the season starts!

[New Donek Flux]

I have been exchanging emails with Sean @ Donek over the past few days getting some details nailed down on a new board that I plan on buying prior to next season.  I have finally had it with my 06 Burton Baron and decided to go full on custom board this time around to get something I want.  So a little about me, I have been riding carving boards for over 20 years, my favorite board in my arsenal today is  2015 Coiler Nirvana 170.  I would like to have a board that is a little more all-mountain, which is why Sean is pointing me towards the Flux.  I am 6', 185 lbs., frequently ride in the midwest, with trips to the Rockies sprinkled in (where I spend most of my time in back country and hit good groomers).  I am thinking a 162 would be a good length, but I am curious of other people's thoughts on the waist width.  I got some new K2 Cinch bindings and 2019 Burton Photon (size 12) boots ready for it.  I was thinking of a starting stance angle in the back of 15 degrees, and front 20 degrees.  If I did my measurement rights, I would need about a 28.8 waist on the board to avoid toe/heel drag getting the board nearly vertical while laying out carves.  That width worries me a bit.  Thoughts?

Did you talk to the guys on the hill at MES?

Alot of us are on Coilers (I have 2), but there are others as well. Metal is a game changer for our hills. 

 

Yes I did, thus my interest in upgrading my current setup.

[SOLD:TD2 bindings $180 shipped]

I'm guessing these are gone?

[Bomber TD1 Bindings]

Are the bindings still available?

I was on a Donek Slalom board for 10+ years. I loved the board - it was everything I seek in a board - tight, super lively, needs to be stayed on top of and driven the whole time - the works. I was quite skeptical that Donek could build me something better than what I had, but it was getting old, tired, and floppy - definitely less lively than it used to be. I've been blown away by the difference in my new board (Donek MK). In many, many ways, its quite similar to my old SL board (same attributes listed above), but its better in several key ways, as well, which I attribute to the improvement in materials and general design experience that Sean has adopted over the past 10+ years. (Edge hold is like nothing I've ever experienced - all the way up to solid ice, this thing just rails!)

Bottom line, I had an older board that I loved, and that I didn't fully believe could be improved on significantly, but the developments between when it was built and now, were quite significant, and made a big difference.

I suspect you'll be quite pleasantly surprised and impressed if you move to a contemporary board!

I was looking at the new Donek Metal FC...wow!  I like the progressive sidecut that it has on it.  Starts with 11 and tapers down to a 12 on a 175 board.  That would definitely getting me cutting into the turns a lot faster than the radius of 14 on my board....but still allow me to hold the edge on long carves.

Thanks for all of the comments guys.  I appreciate all the help thus far.

What model FP do you have?  What do you like and not like about it?

I have a 173 with the 190 waist.  I can't say that I dislike much about it, to be honest.  It may not be as stiff as it used to be.  The only thing that I would say is that when I really get into aggressive into a big carve that it seems to slide a bit, which I can see in the snow.  That could be technique though too.

[New board recommendations]

After doing some riding with guys the other day, all of which had much newer boards than myself, I have decided to look into updating my equipment.  I want to reach out to people on the forum to see what they recommend.  Right now I ride a....ahem...95 factory prime.  Good board, but technology has come a long way.  Not a racer, but want something that will let me throw down hard turns when I want.

 

...and go.

Sweet!  I made the pic reel!  Thanks for the turns guys.  I hope next year I can bring my buddy along and stick around for the whole day.

[MES 2018]

Man...the one year I think about this before it happens and it lies right in the middle of Superbowl week.  I don't know if I can get out of work.
