MikeB Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Does anybody know of shops in the SLC or Park City area that demo or rent alpine boards? I'm looking to replace my old Nidecker Custom GS and want to try out some new rides. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger jr Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Try getting a hold of Billy or Dave at Hardbotter.com. What's your weight and what are you looking for. I might be able to round up something for you to try. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Thanks for the info. Hardbooter has closed. I have called a few shops but nobody carries alpine boards....the usual. It seems the only way to check out boards these days is to go to the Expression session. I'm 135lbs so I"m looking for something like a Coiler Nirvana, Donek axes or freecarve, Prior FLC, etc. in the 164, 167 size range. I'm looking for a board I can still ride when the groomers get a little chopped up and something a little easier to control than my big GS board. Any info on where I could get ahold of some boards out there would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger jr Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Sorry to hear about Hardbooter. You are quite a bit lighter than anything I have. Wonder if Bomber would ship a board out to demo? When are you coming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Yeah, it stinks that they are not around. I'll be out there April 10-14. I'm bummed that I wasn't able to make it to this years expression session. It looks like I'll have to wait until next year or december of this year before I get back out to Colorado to demo some boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
