Yet another awesome build from the incredible mind and hands of Mark Miller. This 2018 8R W is a 185 WARP design, featuring a new nose and tail shape, an extra layer of carbon, and a gorgeous textured / back printed nylon topsheet. I've named her Sylvia Trench (aka. Dr. No Bond Girl). She'll get her first tracks in CO, later this week.5a831fae67490_02131810162.thumb.jpg.e74f14bb419a0214eccd619b65eaad2d.jpg

Now Mark is cooking with gas!

Not a surprise.  She was in on the design.

Not sucking up.  This is more reactive than proactive.  Since the spring of 2015 I have purchased a Proteus, Flux, Nomad, MK and my custom 172.  Her turn for a snowboard.  She has become a great skier in the time since she switched to skis when our son was born in 2006.

i had no idea sc built something like this. a quick google confirmed this isn't sorcery. is the srx euro market only? looks sweet. seems you're amassing quite the phalanx of exotic softboot carvers.

My wife’s first Donek ever, first time on a board in 12 years and her first soft boot board.  It’s a Phoenix with a custom flex.  152, 24 waist and 7.7m SCR.  The footprints are our kid’s, nephew’s and pet’s.

The kid with "chubby" footprint probably needs orthotics...

I kid!  really nice idea for top sheet.  I feel like the antagonist in Italian Job.

Here are a couple of Amplids (Peter Bauer's company) I have been playing on a bit this season. The last couple of days have been particularly awesome carving days with 2-3" of fresh blower overnight with sunny days! It was hard to decide between riding these or my hardboots.

The board on the left is the Surfari. Designed to cover that powder board/carver niche that is so popular these days. It was a blast to ride on soft hero with soft banks to hit on the sides of the runs. I have not had it in powder yet since our year sucks out here. My experience says it will ride beautifully.

The board on the right is Peter Bauer's softboot carver, the Pentaquark. It is a beast. I have the 156 and, at 150 pounds, I consider it to be my GS softboot carver. The specs say it has an 8.7m sidecut, but it rides much bigger than that. Super stable and damp at high speeds, but don't think you are going to 'C' carve it down the steep and narrow trails!

That looks just as stiff as the 5mm Boiler plate,  what plates have you ridden to compare this to? 

Only previous versions of his plates which are stiff.  I haven't ridden anything else so I can't really compare but they barely bend in a flex test. About the same as with the older ones.

Can you take a picture of the plate to board interface? Thanks!
