bigwavedave Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) $350 shipped (lower 48) SOLD Coiler Monster 188 23cm waist 14scr The link below is the original post from last summer when I bought this. Was hoping to ride it in the soft snow conditions it was made for. I rode it a handful of times, never in soft snow, so this Cadillac should go back to the mountains. Hell of a way to demo boards. http://forums.bomberonline.com/index.php?/topic/40206-3-metal-coilers-1-metal-donek/?hl=monster Edited March 16, 2015 by bigwavedave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Buggs Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) Bump, I thought Monsters were metal/VSR and were able to deal with all snow conditions. Edited March 15, 2015 by Bobby Buggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwavedave Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) Bump, I thought Monsters were metal/VSR and were able to deal with all snow conditions. Yup, metal board construction with all the decamber in the nose & tail, and feels pretty damp so likely has some rubber layers in there too. The original post listed the scr as 14m, and that feels about right, but it is likely one of Bruce's blended scr's with an average of 14m. And, yes, it handles all conditions well, but is really optimized for soft snow conditions, like a big Coiler AM. The extra width & length provides flotation, and that combined with the soft/damp/decambered nose & tail , gives it a "Cadillac" ride in crud and chop. It's a lot of width to get up on edge on hard pack, which is 95% of my riding. It's the board I wished I had at Aspen SES last year where every day was super soft snow that got chopped up pretty quick with deep trenches. Here's a link to Bruce's comments about this board: http://forums.bomberonline.com/index.php?/topic/21402-any-coiler-monster-ride-reports-yet/?hl=%2Bcoiler+%2Bmonster Edited March 15, 2015 by bigwavedave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 I have a 188 23 cm Monster and freaking love that board on hard groomers too, the thing slays AND WAY easier to ride that the size may suggest to some. love these things.

Bobby Buggs Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) If my back/leg-foot was not on fire I would have a new home for that board. I rode the OG Plankenshtein under weight for its spec and it was a blast once it got up to speed. Im sure the ones built for lighter weights would be great and a total blast in the upcoming spring conditions Edited March 15, 2015 by Bobby Buggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
