xy9ine Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 the 172 looks superfun. single radius, i take it? tight(er) radii on long(ish) boards sounds like a neat combo. how do the oxesses ride in general? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 We just got Coors Banquet up here. That's good beer man. It was at least 10:30 am when I cracked that one. (At least on the east coast.....) Yup single radius. Oxess boards ride superbly. Really really nice boards. For the $ they should though. Little concerned the 10 is kinda small for a 172 but the stock 168 has a 10 m scr and I'm hoping this will be an "easy rider" to some degree.... Pumped to ride that sucker.

Hilux Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 What year is the Volkl BX? That's look pretty fun too, and still in plastic! The Oxess just looks plain bad-a$$. Would love to try one at some point...actually I think we're heading out the Calgary next winter to see some friends so hang on to it ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 2014 baby!!! Brand new. Not sure if I'll get a chance to ride it... I think the Coilers and Oxess will take the brunt of my riding/abuse Let us know when you're heading over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eajracing Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 2014 baby!!! Brand new. Not sure if I'll get a chance to ride it... I think the Coilers and Oxess will take the brunt of my riding/abuse Let us know when you're heading over. Love it. Just when i think i've got a quiver problem and i need to thin a few boards out I can always count on BC to remind me i'm still a neophyte. Coilers, oxess, volkl - when are you gonna ride the JJA? and the horned monster? and the plankenstein? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Eaj, Thank you for understanding my condition. JJA got a few days in last year. The board is super fun. Love that thing. SL boards are leg burners. Yeah.... I cant ride them all its true... I may put a couple up for sale here shortly... Hard to decide which one to sell though, when I do get a chance to ride each one they're so much fun. Arghh!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffV Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Big C I think we need to have an intervention you are truly a Quiver Addict. :D I can't recall anyone else turning over as many boards as you. Did you take out a home equity loan to finance your addiction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Like any good addict would say "What problem? I can stop anytime" The boards I sell cover about 70% of the boards I buy (that's what I tell my wife anyway) and my kids are so smrt they will have their education paid for no problem... I blame all of you. I never even thought about a "quiver of snowboards" till I met y'all. You'll have to excuse me and my friend Rob Ford are going partying.

I saved for 6 month to buy one board, you guys seem to buy board like a bigmac ! You first, you are the new guy :) I can tell you that the BOL community has a very wide range of folks that have a wide range of skills/ Professions. After having seen the results of past surveys , we do have a "above average" number of technical professions. Fair number of engineers, along with skill trades. There are thousands of members, many have very modest means yet choose to spend their discretionary income on anything that will improve their precious moments on snow.

Last week at tremblant, one of my daughter (she is 2 yeats old) was looking at a micro burton with angel eyes.. I will have to spend a few bucks more ;-) Some of you guys have really nice board collection, I'm jealous ;-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surf Quebec Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 UPZ RC10 2012-2013 bought this fall The source image for the topsheet (bamboo) , the carbonium finish hides the details but should be more resistant to scratches.

Corey Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Coiler Angrry 160 (18 x 8.5/11/9m) with carbonium finish I hope you like turning! My Angrry makes a boring/flat local ski hill quite entertaining. I love it! :) The textured topsheet looks nice, shame it washes out the graphic detail.

TLN Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 That new carbonium topsheet on Coiler looks cool. May be you can post more close-up photos from a differen angles? I'm in between this and regular black p-tex for my next stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powdahbonz Posted December 6, 2013 Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Is it just me or is that piste a thing of beauty??? How nice would it be to just let your board go and not worry about having your head on a swivel. You are lucky pokkis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
