Yes - All the boards in the pictures were set up for - at least riding in and near the trees...as last season we had a ton of powder days and with the evening winds...all the eastern facing slopes slopes would have powder on them for the next day - so notice that all the stances are set pack and I'm riding w/ an even more peculiar angle than normal....

The best powder board of the lot...is the Donek Axis - See how far back the stance goes at 177cm compared to the rest and it's variable scr help a lot...The Monster did have really great flotation though and I had plenty of days on it (10-12) in pretty deep freshies....

Also note that Sean made me a board that he brought to SES that pretty much replaced all of the four boards shown (Promad 179) - that ended up being my go to board for the remainder of the season along w/ another prototype style board that Sean made me that I call the Isabela 181 and that with my Nirvana 180 - that Bruce made me w/ offset bias and reward shifted stance - those three I rode so I don't need the four that are for sale...

You can see pics of what I've pretty much have my quiver boiled down to...below: I really at this point love the trees and riding hard boots in the bumps and the pow...Carving - the pure form is always available at Vail and The Beav as they groom so many runs - continuously...

Hope that helps...

Matt

Damn Matt!! That is some serious quiver clearing. You have a very deep collection. For my sake, I wish you liked narrower boards;)

Buyers. Don't even hesitate, every purchase I have made from Matt has been outstanding, as described, excellent communications, promptly shipped and well packaged.

You want to buy from him!! Bryan

dragonrider,

It depends on so many factors...The way you ride, where you ride, conditions - your boot size - stance angles, etc....

BUT for me the move from 18/19 ww to 21 to 23 ww evolved from the following:

1) I opened up my stance and drastically increased my bias...

2) I shifted my stance farther back on the board and shifted my weight more forward when I ride...

3) The invent of the variable scr makes boards ride narrower - in my opinion...

4) I'm riding steeper and steeper terrain and search for deeper snow and like the added flotation of the increased waist width...

5) When I do Pure Free Carve or EC - I'm able to do it on well groomed - extremely wide runs w/o much "traffic" - so the edge to edge transition is no longer so important AND my ability to force a longer VSR board into quicker turns has just simply progressed...over years of alpine riding...

6) I finish my full days at they same time ski patrol sweeps the mountain, so there is little or no interference and I tend to ride extremely fast on these last runs - like scary fast...so a width of 18/19 is too unstable for my confidence level...

7) Finally much like Troy (bOardski) - during the middle of the day I ride switch/fakie a lot and the wider boards are easier to rotate - even on steeper terrain...

That's pretty much it, as well as the fact that the last board Sean made for me was 23.0 and it worked exceptionally well for my style...

Matt
