autostrada048 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 I Picked up this board about a year ago and i've noticed that many of you have quite an affinity for the Purecarve Maverick. I was hoping that some of you could give me a little background on the company and board? It's a 157cm Purecarve 2002? (because of the bindings) that's all I know. Thanks in advance Autostrada048 Quote
BlueB Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 Hmmm, they produced a similar board, Joey Cabell 167. Don't know if it came in 157 too? Milkman is Mr Pure Carve himself, maybe email him for more details. Quote
autostrada048 Posted December 6, 2010 Author Report Posted December 6, 2010 Wow Thank you so much for the info heres what i found from the information that you provided! "PureCarve was founded as a small, carve-dedicate board company in Aspen that has since disbanded, but you can sometimes find the boards used. They fabricated the Maverick 175 (11.2 M sidecut), a board designed for their style of carving. It is wider and softer than most race boards. At the time it was sold, it had an uncanny resemblance to the blue-topsheet Rossi 173 (probably the Shannon Melheuse Pro-Ride). The Maverick is a good carving board, despite some minor delam problems. PureCarve also produced a rather wide all-mountain board, the Joey Cabell" Quote
