Nice, clean looking Plasma! First new one I've seen in a while. I've had a softspot for wood topsheets since my old Connely Sidwinder slalom ski. This one would look very sexy with a bottle of wine, two glasses, some French bread and some nice "Alpine" cheese slices. Getting hungry!! Tell us how she performs....

Bryan, this is nowhere near skwal territory, Gunther at Plasma has a 15 cm version of this board but I couldnt relax on it, it wants to rail turns nonstop, although I found a 15 cm Virus in the upper 170s that somehow could relax and just do cruising carves. But small waists + new tech works wonders.

This is going to be my go-to board, it doesn't have the universality of the Donek Proteous but I already have enough boards to mix and match. First test ride on November 29th. Need to put it on some ice.

My new Nirvana 174 "Miss B.A." (Beth Ann) - Ordered at SES13, artwork completed April 2013, board built June 2013, combining the finished topsheet with another one of Bruce's masterpieces October 2013 (Had to wait for Golf season) Priceless!!

Whats the Nirvana all about? I have not actually seen this model

Bruce has been building this for two seasons now, it's basically a AMT with a different sidecut, this 174 has the same side cut as my Angrry 170, with a wider deck and longer effective edge. Nirvana was the one word critique from johnasmo when he first rode a prototype. I concurred at the SES13 Demo tent, this was the one board I did not want to return!

Correction....Thanks Mike!

Bruce told me it was based off the old Classics. Whatever the case, I love mine. I have it in a 180 with the 12/14 sidecut and normal taper.
