Scott Firestone Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Now on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=013&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=230078272353&rd=1&rd=1 Burton Factory prime 157, 1998 model year, used. Specs: - Length: 157 cm - Running length: 137 cm - Waist: 20 cm - Sidecut: 8.7M radius Asking price: $70 Shipping costs from zip 94041: - US: via UPS ground $24 - Canada: via USPS $24 The board has a bunch of scuff marks and scrapes on the topsheet and sidewalls. There is one minor gouge in the base. Despite the scuffed-up appearance, the actual performance is very good. This is quite the deal, if you want to get into slalom riding. I purchased it new, and rode it maybe 25 days. It has 13.5mm of camber when laid flat on the floor with no bindings. It has an all-purpose linear-crosshatch base grind that is highly uniform. I have just tuned the base and edges. I waxed it with high temperature yellow wax, scraped the base, and brushed it. If you carve in a very cold area, you probably want to re-wax it with a low temperature wax before you ride it. It has edge angles of 2º, and base angles of 1º. I have not detuned the edges, but in general, I have found that the board doesn't need detuning. I also cleaned out the inserts with a bottoming tap.
