bumpyride Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 I am forced to get rid of some of these in order to relinquish my place in "ECCENTRICS I'VE KNOWN, 1995 to 2004" under the Snowboarder Chapter. I don't know if these picture are going to come out so email me if they don't or you have any questions. I did not run for the President of the United States this year, so I potentially have some credibility.

Guest Necro Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Hi, Any of these boards a good ride for a new rider? I am fairly aggressive, have been snowboarding regularly for 12 years, and pick up new sports pretty quickly. I weigh 150 and am 5'9. I am also just looking for something to go rip groomers on early when it is firm out. Thanks for any reccomendations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumpyride Posted November 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 I'll try and post some pictures as soon as I get some help. This is apparently harder than I thought. Something about knowing what you're doing. I can however send pictures to individual emails, so let me know what you might want to look at. Also have a group photo of the boards that I know I can send right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumpyride Posted November 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Necro, Boards all depend on what exactly you want to do. Have you been on plates before? What kind of angles are you going to use? How firm is firm, pertaining to snow conditions? I'm also 5' 9" and 150 lbs.. I've been riding plates for 7 years, but have a different purpose than most of the guys on this site. I use a shorter fairly stiff board for bumps and steeps off-piste and only the occasionaly carving, while I'm in the Seattle area. When I'm in Duluth Mn, then it's only carving on 550 vert of hardpack. I found I couldn't get the 169 Ultra Prime to flex enough for me, and same with the F2. So I'm using shorter boards and a lot of them for off piste. If you're going to try staying just on the groomers, I might suggest the Nale Speedball, or the Oxygen KR 56C. These should give you a pretty good intro into carving. Both of these are new boards. and should make for some pretty tight quick turns. The Oxygen APX 158 would be a little bit wider with a little more versatility as far as going off-piste. The Airwalk Force 157 may be another choice for the same reason. I'd stay away from the other boards for a first time carver. Some are a bit too small, and the Ultra and F2 are a bit too long (I think) I'll be glad to chat with you, or send pictures.
