2016-2017 New Board Porn (new purchases)


workshop7

Recommended Posts

Also on the Coiler vibe, inspired by TV Show Red Dwarf and sitting alongside my Stubby (called Red Dwarf) is the Coiler AM 172 Starbug, made wider (22.5cm), inserts moved back, a fair bit of taper and with a slightly bigger nose for Hokkaido powder, NZ slush, and riding less than ideal conditions while still being fun on the groomers.

So far, ridden in knee deep powder and chopped up powder it rides like a dream, even makes moguls fun again!

Fedex delivered my new JJSB Clear 162 (well topsheet says 162 but it's really a 163 with a 20cm waist). 14 days turnaround including delivery (would have been 12 if not for the weekend)

I already have a ClearZ 162 but wanted something a little more forgiving with a softer flex.  Sidecut is about 10m which is good where I ride.  Topsheet is JJSB basic but with orange print.  I already have a plate for it (originally purchased with the ClearZ).  We'll see how I like it better; with or without a plate...

Sidecut is 9/11/10

I needed a powder board for some of the snow piling up at Wolf Creek

 Initially my gut said swallowtail but I couldnt  seem to find one than met all above critera. (Please send me any suggestions if you can think of something else to try)

Maybe one of these?

My new custom Donek Flux 182.

Specs:

Length: 182cm

Nose: 32cm

Waist: 26cm

Tail: 30cm

Effective edge: 158cm

Sidecut: 11-13m vsr 

Carbonium topsheet

Working with Sean @Donek was awesome and very easy. The entire process of selecting specs and feedback on the production process was very impressive. I am sure the other custom builders who provide to the Bomber crowd do amazing work as well, but I can now say from firsthand experience that I would strongly recommend anyone looking to build and spec out their own board to contact Sean. My Flux 182 went from phone call to my door in just 9 working days. cheers and thanks, sandy

Ooooh, a meaty 15cms over the largest stock size. When you tire of this and your Tanker Crown, as you inevitably will, you will PM me first. These aren't the droids you're looking for. He can go about his business...

Sean  and Jenifer came thru and sent the boards to me on a ski vacation! My third 185 Freecarve (carbon with yellow racing stripes) and a 185 Hazlewood (mahogany big boy) for powder days. Riding the rails with with brand new sharp edges is unbelievable!

Wishing I could post a picture of my new Coiler Nirvana  with Bacon top sheet that arrived via UPS. But the driver was concerned with some damage to the shipping box.

We both checked out the holes in the box and there were various gouges , one at least 6 inches long and pretty deep in the top sheet. Was told he would take it back to the UPS center and they would get back with me. Major downer!

Bummer, hope it's ok.
