Looks like Alloy is falling in place!  Good to see that its all starting with what seems to be very good communication!!!  That's more than most!!  YOU need to get on and demo it so we at least have some Idea what its all about.  My things im looking for is the amount of camber! not necessarily a good thing since I don't see any type of rocker in the nose to ease initiation.  Flex im not a fan of real stiff boards, im finding my stuff is going to the softer side of things..  165 maybe interesting...unless it doesn't turn worth..Sh@%#T

Get the Report out!! oh and take some real photos!!!  I hate looking at cartoons!

The R-One is promising too!!! 

 

Now if someone can set up Gray and Moss we be in business!!

That is the only picture I have on me.  That is the 17/18 D.O. with a clear topsheet to show the guts.  I will get more pics shortly.

Some video of the the Moss twister in action.


Speaking of the alloy boards is there any chance in the future for them to come out in wider sizes for those of us with bigger feet? The construction is definitely very impressive looking.
 

I will recommend that they look into it.

Cool where in NE are you for demos?

Looks promising but also like Lonbordin it would need for me to run very high angles not to boot out with a 25.8 waist even on a 165cm. Also 29MP. But only 95kg lol.

The sidecut radius is special. Would love to try it.

 

Will have in my hands the One B-One shortly and try it. Lighthest board around.

Where would you like to demo?  I am based in CT but will travel.

I mostly ride at Stratton.  I could definitely do a weekend around April 12th if they are still open.

They blow alright!!   I usually do the Pk n Pk on weekends..

Sell your Peaks Resort stocks before their next earnings report!

Rough season... only one of the six Mid-west resorts are spinning right now. 
From the webcams it looks like only 3 of 6 will have any skiing in March.  

Alpine Valley- Closed for the season
Paoli Peaks- Closed for the season
Hidden Valley- Suspended (looks really bad)
BM/BW- Suspended (Snowmaking restarts Friday, looks thin)
Mad River- Suspended (Snowmaking restarts Friday, looks thin)
Snow Creek- Re-Opened (has base)

The D.O. 165 is a new size for next year.  I have only been on next years 161.  Hit some pretty high speeds on the 161.  Not a lick of chatter and stayed on line.  I could only imagine that the 165 is even more stable at high speeds.  I am waiting to hear from Alloy about what they will be sending for demo purposes.  I will keep you posted.

Stratton is planning to close on April 8th.  I think Alloy is talking to someone in Vancouver about distribution in Canada.  I will see if they have contracted them yet.

What's the price on the DO? 

As with keeping with Bomber policy i really dont want to blurt it out ...Don with Alloy is just getting started so drop him a line , he has been very responsive..so all has been a good start with me.  I take chances with boards...why not eh.. Plus it looks bad ass!!

Good call.  Wasn’t keeping my wits about me with all these boards being shown/discussed.  Really interested in getting your thoughts on this when you get some time on it...as I’m sure we all are!
