davekempmeister Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Bryan's pic of an F2 196 from way back is the inspiration here. anyone with a board in any way similar that is going unused? the only boards precluded would be Rossi WC and Sims Burner (Sims - maybe if it's really cheap), otherwise I am open to glass, metal, 188 cm minimum. Burton FP would have to be cheap, race stock, fresh or NOS and stiff, stiff, stiff. looking for something intimidating, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 There was a 205 Donek on LA Craigslist last month...ad expired now, so don't know if it sold or what. Might be worth keeping an eye out for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxlanaudiere Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Well I know you said 188cm but I figured with only 3 cm difference I'd give it a try Prior WCRM 185 SCR 14 or 15 really really stiff. Board as been ridden less then 15 times since new. Excellent condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 [ATTACH]30481[/ATTACH]How much was it listed for Dan?? I don't recall exactly, but I remember thinking it was a good price. Under $200 maybe? That's a good looking Coiler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a MINT Coiler PR 196cm with no sidecut he might want?? that (unfinished) room is beautiful. no sidecut, really? thanks Dan. I will check periodically - that board would fit the description, i'd think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrutton Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 That's a tasty looking Coiler 196 oldsnowboards. It looks like it has a decent amount of sidecut. Big stiff boards are out there, the tricky thing is to get the owners to part with them. I have a couple (190 Prior and a 197 Burner), neither for sale yet.

I have not ridden it yet, hope to soon. Thanks , I am afraid I need to get it insulated and rocked by Thanksgiving. (That is what I have promised my family) I really want to host Thanksgiving this year. Funny thing, my oldest brother said the same thing. He said it would be cool if I could leave it that way. Rustic. It is really handy for putting snowboard in :) I don't think the city inspector would buy it though. PS. Tinkler just handed me a modded plate for the BP system. Added pressure to get back on the mountain to try some new gear!! It is SO LIGHT. Added bonus , it will work with his "Axle Riser" and the BP systems. Maybe the Coiler would be a good choice to try it out on?? Edited April 19, 2012 by www.oldsnowboards.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the 205 on LA CL was claimed locally (not me unfortunately) and was a standard build older 205. I believe around 19cm wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekempmeister Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Bryan, the room is beautiful because of what you have standing around - like a good party or museum. No doubt it will be on it's own when you are finished with it. Most certainly, I would jump at the chance to buy the Coiler. (Sidecut is something that lenses/photos so easily distort) That said, I do hope it's a board that you will enjoy riding, but if you don't...... Nekdut - thanks for saving me the trouble. Funny, if it panned out on CL and some sort of p/u needed be arranged, I was already thinking of you. Maybe you knew that, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan - I called the guy with the 205 and then emailed him and he didn't get back to me. Maybe just doesn't want to ship or whatever. eajracing - how are the inserts, base and edges on the FP? how much use/ how long have you had it? super stiff? how much? mike g - I had a Rossi WC 190 for a few years and want something different - great base on that board, though. if a NOS 184 still in plastic was sticking out of a rack somewhere I'd be tempted.

Hans Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 Dave, just give me a PM, I have two boards for sale which you will like: a black Oxess 185 GS Worldcup Titanal (with UPM inserts), and Tinkler Full system Titanal 202cm. They are both in excellent condition and for an interesting price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
