Guest Randy S. Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Just curious. How many snowboards do you currently own? Yes, you can count them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Sub Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 technically 5, but Im going to try to get it down to 2 one carver, one all around soft boot setup (something around a 170-175. Im big enough for this to be an all around size) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumpyride Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Twenty Seven. Talk about an idiot. Hence the reason for the soon to be snowboard clearance. Seems like if there was one that looked like it might work, I'd buy it with the thought that someone else might be able to use it, plus the fact that I could buy pro-form. They just seemed to start stacking up. This is the year to pare that down to a manageable number. I do board in Seattle area, and Duluth Mn. area, and I don't like to do the same thing all the time. (what a rationalization) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarvCanada Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 haha wow, great poll As for me, there is a purpose for all of them (3) One for the weekdays (Coiler 186) One for smaller mountains/weekends (Donek 171) and one for teaching/powder days/days with friends who go everywhere (Salomon 159 with softies soon to be replaced by Donek Incline 168 with the same bindings and boots as for carving) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knoch Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 So i've got a softy set up, a broken alpine board, and the one i just replaced it with, and if we're counting all of our boards i guess i should mention the fact that i've got about 10 pairs of skis, so you can add 20 to that 3 i mentioned. Guess i could explain the skis, the first 2 pair i can think of are for racing, both are volkl p40's, then i've got some old volants that i lend out to people i hate hahaha. then i still have the first pair of skis i ever skied on, and the last 6 pair were the type that you find at a ski swap for $5 that i bought and use for jumping since they seem to break so easily.

Baka Dasai Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Originally posted by Chris Osin 4807 168 Fish 156 HD Hmm, if I was to buy a dedicated powder board, to be worn with either hard or soft boots (but maybe a slight preference for hard), that wouldn't be a total waste of time on the groomers (although that's not really a big issue), which of these two boards should I buy?

NateW Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Usable: Coiler 174 AM custom (daily driver) CustomCraft 170 (rock board) Unusable, future bench material: Sims Search 171 (battered) Nitro Diablo 178 (broken) CustomCraft 170 (broken, replaced under warranty) Coming real soon: Coiler 174 AM (much narrower than the last one) Happy Monkey 174.5 AM (in between the two Coilers) Maybe next year: Something 185ish After next year's board arrives, I'll have enough. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonerider Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Freestyle: Neversummer Evo 155 Freeride: Donek Incline 155 Powder: Burton Fish 156MD Alpine: Madd 170 I'm planning on eventually consolidating the freestyle and freeride boards into one. I originally (two years ago) only had a Salomon Definition, which was a great all-mountain freeride... but really tough in the park and in powder by the trees. I got the Neversummer for the park... and eventually sold the Definition to get the Incline... turns out neither of those two boards were that good in the powder, so I picked up a Fish on Ebay for 80% off. At the same time I got a Burton Ultraprime last season, which I sold to get a Madd 170 this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derf Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 2000 Nitro GTX 166 bought new in 2002 1993 Burton Air 6.1 , hasn't seen snow since 2002 (only one run). Either the other board's a really good board, or conditions have been very hardpacked since... Derf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Usable: '94 Asym Air 164/race plates (back up/rock board) '00 Tanker 2K/Intec RS (da big gun) Semi-usable: '89 Gnu Race Room 178/Elfgen plates Main ride '99 Prior 4WD (delammed), replacement coming: AM172 I voted 4 as I don't actually have the AM in my grubby paws yet. If I rode in the east or had the chance for more days I'd pick up a pure freecarver or race board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skully Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Ok, I've got 8 boards floating around the house, out of which 5 get ridden regularly. 3 of them belong in a Museum: Early 90's Craig Kelly "Mystery Air", mid 90's M5, and a late 90's Hauser Freeride. OK, there's a late 90's Hooger Tuned that belongs in a Museum also, but I still ride it. My wife's little Airwalk Freeride board. My Brother-in-law's old Nitro freestyle board that he doesn't ride anymore, so I threw an old pair of plates on it and use if for teaching now and then. Rossi Levitation for teaching in softies. Rossi WC 190 for chasing rhinos.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Fish is fun in trees. I used it with hard boots and Raichle Xbones which seemed a good fit. It washes out late in a turn on groomers. The 4807 I haven't ridden much yet, but I like it better overall. Did you look Bertin's new Malolo. Less taper, and better on hardpack they say. Of course it will be many more $$$. Jake's got a big ship to float. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
