Jim Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 Hello Carvers, Anyone know what the specs are on a 160 Wild Duck "Knifer"? It was designed by Jacques Rillet and is gray/black. Found 3 for $120 a piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladia Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 I saw them a couple years ago at San Jose for $50. It supposed to be starting board for development of Sword. I was told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nils Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 no wonder the board was a success with such a name ;) N. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted February 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 Thanks for the info. I'll go back and see about a better price on the closeout sale. Definitely worth a look. Hope to see you sooner than later Ladia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK2TX2CA Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Hello Nils / Jacques What was the spec for a symetrical TD / Downhill Knifer in the 165cm length? Regards, UK2TX2CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Houghton Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 I had the 161 GS (!!!) 19cm waist 10m sidecut, a real fun snappy board. Symmetrical, must have been 1994 or 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted March 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Well I have another name for the 160 Wild Duck Knifer. It is the "Wild Pig" haha, for the way it ate up the too soft snow. As the snow got softer the board just ate it up. No nose dive or bogging in the carve. Too bad I didn't pick up the third one when I had the chance. A killer Spring season board for carving when everyone else goes home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
