big canuck Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I don't think I'll have a chance to ride this board this season with a few new sticks on the way. I'd give it 8.5 out of 10. Bought it at the end of last season, never rode it. Metallic red topsheet Donek "spec box" on the board reads as follows: Made for Rob Phillips Model 01jbird182fc Width 18cm Sidecut 13m Date Feb 2006 I have 2 other Olympic Doneks. I have ridden the 175 FC1 and the board holds an edge better than any other board I've tried. Could be the tune, edge angles etc. I dunno except its really sweet. The board rides awsome, one of my all time favorites. The one weird thing is, on my other 2 Olympic boards it says "Olympic" in the info box but on this board its penned in below the box but the clear coat is over the writing. I've had non-Olympic Doneks and it's obvious this one is indeed Olympic construction. Base and edges seem pretty much perfect. LOTS of camber. $475.00 US Shipped in N/A. New Olympic Freecarves are $780.00. Thanks for the look. I'll try and post some pics later. K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big mario Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 And it is an absolute hoot to ride. I could only imagine what the olympic upgrade is like. If I could I would in a heartbeat. Kurt, if this board doesn't move and you still have it in the spring and things are more stable here, we will most definately need to talk. mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted November 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 As I said my 175 FC1 is incredible. Olympic consruction is underated IMHO. I'm pretty sure the buyer of this board will be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShortcutToMoncton Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I unfortunately had to return my 185 Prior WCR due to some manufacturing problems, so at the moment I have Raichle AF600 boots, lovely TD2s, and no board to attach to the bottom! In other words: if it's still for sale, I'll pay the asking price for some east-coast Canadian love.... ;) greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
