tahoetrencher Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 That Wild Duck is a "swap 61". I bought the same board here on a reccomendation from Chris H. I just needed a cheap pow/rock board after I smashed my white walled Madd in a chute (yah, I know...) I'd heard J R designed boards were good, but... I had no idea HOW GOOD! It sure is a great pow ride but I'll never waste it earlier season. It's got a decent stiffness to it. I'm 195 lbs and I can load it without going over the handle bars. I don't hard carve it- got plenty quiver for that. But it would be a good one board quiver ride. In addition to pow it likes chopped, slushed and bumped. It even goes half-pipe without scaring the bejeezus out of me. I bought it as a disposable rock/kite shoulder season board but it's earned too much respect for any of those things. It's the first round-tail board I've bought in over 15 years, but I'm tempted to buy this one just as a back-up! As I recall the waist is about 20.5 and sidecut probably 9.5-10.5?

Derf Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Wild Duck is the company that Jacques Rilliet (of Extreme Carving) used to work for (from 1990 to 1994) before he and Patrice made the Swoard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirk109 Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 "BUMP" Ok guys & girls, Any takers? I am going to put this on ebay this weekend. At this point I will entertain and reasonable offers............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Houghton Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 These boards are VERY popular 10 years later in Europe - I can't believe nobody has grabbed this one! Here come the flames, but these boards are far superior in performance and longevity than Burton, Nidecker or F2, this is a bargain! The Knifer is still around sometimes on eBay.de, a good partner for this board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirk109 Posted October 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Rebecca, The Elan has lot's of edge left. The board is base flat and looks perfect. Lots of camber and still stiff. It is about 8in in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
