Tellurider Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 I am trying to raise some funds to buy (or trade for) a few new BX boards, including a Silver topsheet Kessler 158-160, Madd BX, and/or an Oxess FX 163. Absent a trade, I would like to sell the following: (1) brand new, never ridden Virus Avalanche FLP AFT 160, Virus' newest carbon fibre freeride board, which retails for $1800 at A B S in Denver. Asking $1350 OBRO. The board is still in its wrapping from Virus. (2) brand new never ridden Virus Avalanche FLP in carbon fibre, length 162. Asking $1000 OBRO. The board is still in its wrapping from Virus. (3) well used Virus Avalanche FLP in carbon fibre, length 162. The board is well used, but the base is perfect, having just been ground for the first time in expectation of its sale. Asking $600 OBRO. The Oxess and Virus UFC BX boards seen in one of the photos are not part of this listing. More pics, including base photos to follow in the following posts. Thanks for looking. You can reach me at 970-708-7652. Regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ear dragger Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 what is the width on the flp 162 (used one)? very interested, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tellurider Posted January 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 The waist width, which is what I assume you're looking for, is 25.6 cm, with an effective edge of 125cm. If you want more info let me know. Virus sometimes does not post turning radii on some of their boards, and I cannot find it on their site for this board; I estimate the turning radius on the 162 FLP to be around 9m. It weighs 2.54 kg or 5.6 lbs. (As an example the Avalanche AFT has like 7 different radii according to Virus, and they're not posted anywhere.) The board is not too stiff so as to get chattery or uncontrollable at super high speeds, it's extremely forgiving. The carbon fibre topsheet and carbon stringers and Quadraxiale fibre glass allow for great carving, with a very pleasant flex, typical of Virus boards. Its not nearly as stiff as my Donek Incline, but holds an edge just as well. I liked the board so much, I bought a 2nd and identical one from Frank at Virus the next model year--I just never got a chance to use the newer one, as many other boards came in between...in short, both Avalanche FLPs are 100% identical in specs, although their bases have different colors. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tellurider Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I dont think threre's any set weight class for a board as versatile as this. I weigh about 145, and am just 5'5, and most would say that I'm too small and light for a board this long, but I truly loved riding my other FLP. I think anyone from 145 to 180 pounds could enjoy this board. Above 180 and I think you'd want a 168 from Virus. I hope this helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
