piusthedrcarve Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) I purchased this Full Carve 170, ordered through Bomber last season for $900+shipping. Prior to this board, I had a SG Full Race and its riding characteristics led me into purchasing a Full Carve. I consulted with many SG distributors/racers/owners in Europe whether I should go with Full Race vs. Full Carve..before purchasing. As their recommendation, it is awesome board. Geometry is same as Full Race but without titanial layer. It rides much like Full Race but little easier to find carve lines. Edge grip on hard pack is very good and even on ice. Since it has glass characteristics, it rides better in various conditions, especially in soft snow. I has more pop on hard pack snow. I was informed that Sigi prefers Full Carve for freecarving but uses Full Race only for training and racing. Here is SG spec. I rode this board less than 10 half-days since I have too many toys to play with. This year, I've been riding a lot SL or short boards and only had this one on snow for 4 times. See photos for its condition. Yesterday, I went off the trail on this and got little scratches on base/edge (see photo #5). I will treat the edge with file and smooth the scratch on base today. Over 10 half-days of riding over 1 and a 1/2 season, it has been waxed 4 or 5 times.

mojoinroe Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hello - What's you bottom line? A bit steep for me currently, although I do recognize that your asking price is fair. I may be interested in a slightly better price. Best - Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listed it for sale just because I want to try something else which is much more than this and am trying to get some funds from this sale.

piusthedrcarve Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Interested in any sort of trade at all??? Haha.. if that comes from you or Bryan, I can name anything right? :) - Madd 170 Red or White wall (I know you do have few :) ) - Oxess XR/XX 178 or RG 177/180 - Sense 170+ - Pogo 170+ (Edge or Blitz) - Virus Tantalus II Evo III 175 Lastly, - Coiler 172 VSR FC or AMT (>180 lbs) or Nirvana for comfort. Basically want a carving specific deck with camber in 170+ range. Of course, difference (of fair value) will be paid or want to be paid on trading. Thanks for asking the question. I needed to write them in somewhere so that I won't forget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrutton Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Basically want a carving specific deck with camber in 170+ range. What's the longest cm board that you would consider trading for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piusthedrcarve Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 What's the longest cm board that you would consider trading for? I look at SCR and camber instead of overall length. If it has good amount of camber, 15-17m SCR is fine. Ideal one would be +3cm cambered new school shape with 15m SCR. Oh Wait. That's a Tantalus II. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrutton Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I don't have anything, that you'd want to trade for I'm guessing. Any particular reason for sale? I'm trying to find out availability/pricing of the 170 FR Titan. Haven't found one yet, so I have some mild interest in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piusthedrcarve Posted March 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 SOLD. This deck will be in my back of mind all the time though. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
