FilipinoFlyer Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I picked this board up earlier this summer thinking that I was going to tool around with this for fun. I picked it up from a rider from Montana that had it pretty much stored in his closet since he was racing on his 158RT. This Renn Tiger 163SL is in very good condition considering that it's from the 01/02 model year. The Renn Tiger has a milled wood core, so the camber is manufactured and not pressed. This board has a ton of camber and since the core is milled it will last a very, very long time. When I received this back 2 weeks ago, slight base oxidation, but then I took a horsehair and stiffer brushes to work it out, crayon-waxed with Swix Warm Flouro and warm ironed, then hot boxed for 6 hours to infuse the wax. Never had the chance to mount and ride, as I'll be using other boards this season. From initial feel, camber is still very good and very springy (although these RTs are known for it). Top sheet still has the original QC and 3D Side Cut stickers on it. It just doesn't look like it was used very much. Base and edges are very good with much life left. Asking $175 + $30 for shipping to US/CAN http://www.flickr.com/photos/61207748@N05/sets/72157627709538914/ Pics posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justmattjill123 Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 We are new to hard booting and looking for equipment to get started. Would this board be suitable for a 14 yr old 5'7" 150lb rider. My son competes in GS & SL events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hydro74 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hi sent you an email,im interested in the board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilipinoFlyer Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 my apologies for not getting back to some of you... I just got an email notification from the last poster. For some reason it was not getting pushed to my phone. Nevertheless, I have one interested buyer pending...i will update as needed. This is a good GS board for a rider lighter around 140 and below. A great slalom board for more experienced and heavier riders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilipinoFlyer Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hey Mort, It's Jondre. Hey if I knew it was for you or one of your kids, I would have driven it over. My bad. So someone in BC is considering the board at the moment. If he doesn't pick it up, I'll let you know. I still owe you a call anyway... I'll call you tomorrow or Sat Talk soon, Jondre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilipinoFlyer Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Hey Mort - I'm in Boston until Wednesday. I'll call you when I get back in and we can either meet up in Reno, if you're flying out or somehow get you the board. Talk to you on Wed.

Sinecure Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Mort, you still using your yahoo email address? If not, send me a message through BOL with your updated addy. I may have some other stuff that would be of interest to team members. I'll be up in Tahoe sometime in the next few weeks and can stop by Squaw.
