RDY_2_Carve Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 161cm Race shape, never heard of the manufacturer. Includes plate bindings that are brand new. This is not my auction. Buy it now is only $85. Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin A. Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 There's a brooklyn longboard manufacturer, they make some pretty high-dollar stuff, real nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoBear Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 So I am looking to buy my first setup... I was thinking about an Oxygen kr 56 w/ oxygen bindings or should I look at this board & bindings???? (side question - is a 156 to small for me? I am 5'9'' and 150lbs and I ride a Arbor A-frame free ride board that is a 158) I haven't seen any mention (other than this add) that dakine made plate bindings. Are the ones included any good? Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 ... not only do you have my ski boots, but we're the same height and weight! My first board was a 156, but it was a race board and not a softer freecarve setup, so it gave me plenty of schtick when I was learning. My new Donek Axxess is a 167 and I had no problems with the demo in that length. My favourite groomer board is a longer version of my first one at 162, and even that's getting a little short now... I'd think that if you have a 158 freeride board already, you should be in the mid 160's... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

www.oldsnowboards.com Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 Drake, not DaKine bindings. FYI Yes, thanks for point in out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 These bindings look seriously dangerous... Even for a light rider. Board looks decent, but no one realy knows that brand / specs. Oxygens are good boards and bindings should be ok too. However, it's a race slalom board. Most of people here agree that something more forgiving is better as first alpine board, like AM carver. Something on softer flexing side with medium SCR. Old Burton Alps are cheap and easy to find, Rossi A series. For more bucs you could get Donek Pilot, or if you wanted to spend more money Axxess and 4WD. Even Burton Ultraprime could do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdea Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 are not too bad I think PSR was still sporting some of those not all that long ago I've used them, better than Blax, O2 and some of the other plastic bindings out there someone here has one of those boards in question look here http://www.bomberonline.com/VBulletin/showthread.php?t=8676&highlight=brooklyn+angelic perhaps email him and see if he liked it @ $85 with a new pair of decent plates you really can't go wrong though, just get it and pretend that the board was a freebie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 The bails look so thin and that white plastic... Whell, someone who knows them has spoken! Maybe not to bad deal after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdea Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 but drakes were not bad at all either, there were worse bindings out there a light rider should have no problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
