Number of Snowboard Companies

[Silver Bullet]

You've got to add the Snurfer to the list... Maybe that was pre 80's. Pre Snowboard even...

[Steve Prokopiw]

Noticed this on the list.I still have the three identically shaped 165cm Lacroix Nidafly asymns in three different flexes from when I was a rep for them in the early 90s.The soft one was very forgiving and fun to putt around on;rode it in the pipe alot.The mid flex one was one of the best carving boards I ever had.The stiff model was their world cup board and called the SuperNida;it was a real workout to ride and was extremely stable for a 165 at high speeds.I rode these with as wide a stance as the thickness of the boards would allow my snowpro varios to be safely screwed to them;about 18" which was about two inches wider than the racers were supposedly riding them.

Just to throw a little gas on the fire;asyms were rad,and for the occasional exercise in adaptability,still are.If I had the disposable income I would commission a 175 directional twin asymn with slushbuster nose and tail.Why? Well,mostly to ruffle Jack's feathers:)But also because I think it would be a blast to ride.

OOPS,Just realized all this would have made more sense in Rob's "Asymns are rad thread"

[big canuck]

Prop

Slicker

Outland

I'll think of more

[Kimo]

Is it only the ones that went out of business?

[b0ardski]

Don't forget all the ski manufacurers, Besides K2 & lacroix, atomic, dynastar, dynamic, rosignol, solomon, elan, head, I,m sure a couple more will come to mind.

Pretty sure its the same guy that came up with Outland and "Virtual Pivot Point" (AKA Santa Cruz and Intense) suspension yes.

Not any more. Olson bought it back from Quiksilver.

When did that happen? Can you point me to a source on that?

Thanks!
