Dr D Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 So I have been riding this thing in every condition imaginable and it is really amazing. update to a previous question about suitability for moguls. ITs very doable if your legs are up to it! I rode it down the liftline on the backside of BIG MTN blackdiamond moguls with about 3 inches of fresh on it. I didn't die or catch the nose etc. I would have liked bare moguls or more fresh to really enjoy the run. the variable conditions made it a little twitchy in places. I also rode it on a big powder day. The day started off with 4 inches and just dumped all day. the late afternoon was over a foot in places. IT was nice light cold smoke for the most part. I ran the board harder than ever before and could do no wrong. Absolutely insane to see only an inch or two of board edge sticking out or the snow on a hard carve. Total hip dragging bliss! In places where the snow was really deep I floated above the groomer and it performed like a carver with a sort of water ski feel to it. First time experience and so worth it. At speed it comes to the top like a swallowtail. I can only assume the long rocker nose is responsible for that. more in a minute:biggthump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr D Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I also rode it on a powder day when it was totally tracked up and heavy. I was concerned about the bumps at first but whenever it was feeling loose I just laid it over farthur and it cut right through. The metal really makes this thing damp enough to handle most anything. shred you hit a winner man:1luvu::biggthump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Ace* Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 The rumors are true. The one and only X4 Arrow HyperG 163 is now in my quiver. I expect this to be my go to board for my next o, lifetime. I can't wait to get back on it and feel that go anywhere, do anything kind of feeling that this board offers. Coiler Schtubby metals are THE way to go! Shred, you are a flippin' genius. Can't wait to see what Coiler Skunkwerks puts out next. I already know, and can't wait.

Shred Gruumer Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Crazy angles?? explain... this board is more built for carving and quasi BX than soft.. but it handle it all well.. I had the angles set for hard pack.. and the board rocks... I do adjust the angles to the conditions a bit.. but not much.. I really didn't need to.. it was like kinda like sorta a mini monster..:( Dr... Im so depressed the only cure is sending it back now for my Colorado trip.. youll get it back....:D Glad that its become what it is.. Call info at colier dot com Operators are standing by!!

Danked Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 About the angles... they look 60ish to me, at least for the hardboots. I run 50, 47 on my 20cm wide SG, if i had a 21cm wide board they would probably be 47, 43... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
