Prior WCRM 183 $450 Shipped

[Boarder_Ted]

This WCR Metal was purchased from the Prior board rack as a demo but was not really ever used. Chris said he built it for himself so it has a little wider stance, not the standard stance width. It will go from 18" to 23".

The top and base are in excellent condition with minor discoloration from the bindings. Camber is also huge.

I have used this board lightly over the last couple seasons and it has never been abused. He's a chance for someone to try a great Prior Metal at a price significantly lower than new.

Specs are pretty much the same as the latest boards with the exception being this board has a 13 meter SCR. Newer ones are now 14 meters. 195 waist.

Great riding board.

Any input on rider weight range?

[Boarder_Ted]

I weigh in at 150 lbs and have no problem with this board. Prior doesn't really list a weight range for their boards.

I found it has a nice, smooth flex and holds an edge beautifully. It's is also a very damp ride, as is typical of many Metal boards.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. That sounds somewhat promising. I'll need to look at my binding width late tonight.

Go to the Prior website and look at the FLC. In the specs section at the bottom of the page the recommended weights are listed. They'll be the same for the WCRM.

Well then, that would start the weight range at 140 lbs.

Thanks for the tip, Flywalker.

I've had several emails asking if I would consider a lower price. My answer would be no, not at this time and here's my reasoning. Prior sells this board for $1000. If you can find it used on the Prior site, it might be $500 (there's one there now- a 177) then you have shipping on top of that and shipping from Prior is almost $50. If you pay with Paypal, I am charged 3%. There's $12 I lose already.

This is a great board that I have kept in very nice condition. There are no base gouges, dings or anything else to mar it. I feel I have priced it fairly. I did try to do a search on Bomber to see if I could come up with a price that others have sold for but could find none.

So, I am keeping the price where it is for now. If it doesn't sell, I may reconsider.

Thanks for your interest.

Ted,

Fair enough.

Anyways, I'm seriously interested. What year is the board?

[Boarder_Ted]

Colin,

The board was built in '08. I rode it along with a 4wd that season and last year it was in rotation with a WCR glass board. Ridden primarily in the morning when the runs were groomed and then I switch to soft boots. Just trying to give you an indication of the time spent on it.

Looks like you could use a Prior to round out the quiver. ;)

[colintkemp]

Ted,

Ha! And I was thinking about thinning my quiver. Whatever.

I'm in. Let's take this off line. colintkemp at yahoo dot com.

[Boarder_Ted]

Board is sold!

[colintkemp]

Board arrived (in 2 days!!). It looks great. (And my wife didn't kill me when I came home with yet another board.)

+1 for doing business with Boarder_Ted.

Colin
