scottishsurfer Posted September 10, 2019 Report Share Posted September 10, 2019 Looks like Rome sds are making a soft boot carver judging by the video at 1.38 and being ridden at 11.43. I'm guessing its sadly asia only and not a sneak peak at something to come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

west carven Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 howdy Seb HENRI You know this video ?... yes this video was posted on this thread a bunch of pages back... your video looks cool, but most people here think body dragging is not good form... here where I ride in the west we have soft snow and putting your hand down on snow it would get ripped off from your body... extreme carving is only good for good firm groomers... having your weight off the edge is not good form... to each his own... have fun... look cool...

Seb HENRI Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 11 hours ago, west carven said: Hello West Carven, Yes you're right depending on the snow the style is different, I come from freeride and I like boardercross style, but when you do carving and you manage to put your head in the snow while keeping control of your board on the edge at full speed and by linking turns, it gives great sensations, especially in Backside The technique is different, the best is to ride in freeride mode then do carving, a few turns in ExtremeCarving mode, do 2 or 3 small jumps, have fun doing everything what... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barryj Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) 19 hours ago, west carven said: most people here think body dragging is not good form Hmmm......."most people here" Are you speaking as "here", this forum West? ....or are you referring to where you ride? I would have to disagree. I enjoy the EC style/skill and agree with Seb, mix it up, throw a few EC turns into your run...... it's a great skill to have in your bag of tricks....but not every single turn. 19 hours ago, west carven said: I ride in the west we have soft snow and putting your hand down on snow it would get ripped off from your body Not sure about this either. I spent the last 7 years riding in Cali and soft snow is no problem to lay a few EC turns and I have seen many more soft boot EC riders tearing it up at Northstar and Heavenly the last couple of years....... softboot EC carving is the new hot trend and bringing new blood into the mix from what I see. Sounds like it's time for a new Poll! Edited October 28, 2019 by barryj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're such a niche of a niche; I hate to see carvers slag on other carvers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottishsurfer Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Not my preferred style but I do like going flat on carves yet to come across a suitable groomer to try anything like that but as soon as I find one I'm trying it and probably failing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

west carven Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 howdy looks like rama is on the new bc stream rs a more traditional looking board that looks softer and his riding looks like he is having way more fun than a dedicated soft carver... cool that he is riding here and would be cooler if we could get some bc stream boards here...

scottishsurfer Posted November 9, 2019 Report Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) I've seen rama ride that a few times recently i think he just switches up what he rides depending on the conditions more than anything. pretty cool seeing him ride outside of japan and korea i wonder if anyone realised who he was and recognised him. And yeah id love to try a BC stream, Gray or Ogasaka Edited November 9, 2019 by scottishsurfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
