Cyrus the virus Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 What would porn be without a bit of tease? ;) I like your floor! Looks amazing! Just building a house and look for a floor like these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Just building a house and look for a floor like these! I thought you would build a Zylon, or at least carbon, floor? :D :D :D Recipe is simple: You install the new hardwood floor, then I'll rent my big dog to you, he'll ruin it within 6 months, max, for you. Worn-out looks guaranteed! Alternativelly, I can trade my used flooring boards for couple of your latest snowboards... You pay the shipping ;) Kidding asside, this is an example of what funky photography and a bit of light editting can do. You love on the photo something that you would hate in real life...

WinterGold Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 My guess is: production Kessler "The Cross" BX 168. Am I right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Almost right my friend, it is a Kessler BX 168, built narrow for hard boots! Specs: L 168, W 22.2, Taper 17, SCR Kessler's magic... 2nd pic shows hefty amount of nose rocker (decamber) and gentle rise. There's a bit of tail rocker too. Last year I tried Kessler KST SL and was stunned by the great carving performance yet surprising all-mountain capabillity of the board, even abillity to ride pow! I kept on thinking: "Well, if this just had a bit more nose, small rounded tail and few cm more width, it would be the greatest all-rounder of all times...". Then I got blessed with this BX! Needless to say, I have really high expectations for this little stick. Report to follow when the snowbase is decent enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekdut Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Boris, Please let us know how that rides, especially with plates. That does sound like an awesome all-rounder! Zackay's K-SL is tempting me with your glowing review. I was thinking about jumping on it if it didn't require Hangls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Boris-that looks awsome! Looks like it would be an excellent replacement for my beat Volkl Cross. I think that I would be very nervous riding such a beautiful high $ board on my some of my expeditions. I always seem to incur alot of base and edge damage.

BlueB Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Ha, I can sell you my Volk Cross, now that I have this thing and F2 ElDIablo as the backup ;) I just found Cross to be too wide for my baby feet in hardboots, especially for aggressive bump riding. Otherwise, great board. I pulled a big trade deal to get the F2, which I love, and thought it would be my all-round ride for this season. Then the Kess came along at the price I couldn't resist...

BlueB Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 How thick is that board anyway? Looks very durable too me. Not very thick. Certainly thinner then Kessler GS. Nose is a bit thicker then the older style boards, I guess to compensate for the rocker... Titanal seems very thick, though - it is still exposed in between sidewall and p-tex top sheet, visible on the nose pic. Flex is somwhere on par with the SL I rode last year, or a tad softer. It still comes back from hand flex with enthusiastic snap, probably carbon strips at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
