Jcar Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 Got a spot in June. This will be my first time working with Bruce, and my first custom board EVER!! Gonna do 2 this summer. A Thirst Superconductor from Mark and a Coiler. The Coiler I’m thinking something around 170 that will crank tight turns on a steeper narrow blue runs (SoCal, Big Bear) but with the capability of opening up and balls to the wall on more open wider runs (Mammoth, Montucky). Other than that I’m gonna let Bruce work his magic and worry about my top sheet graphics! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 anyone asked bruce for more than his usual amount of camber? responses/results? does the amount of camber differ on his models? is it dictated by rider weight? I ask because i really enjoy the energy coming out of turns on a board with substantial camber, and i'm thinking of asking for more on my next build. thx!!

I think it depends on if he has a mold built with more. He might as he’s been at it since the old days when boards had way more. I asked him to build a board that was mostly rockered and he really didn’t want to do it. He said that’s the modification that really runs him into hours.

The board that would have been nice to have at MCC...and did not have with me! Anyway, that's what I told Bruce. Haven't worked out any details other than it will be around 185 or 188cm with a tight scr for the length, maybe feel like 11-12m? and a similar shape to Shred's new Monster. Bruce already has some ideas...he'll work out the details. Wonder if I should let him pick out the topsheet graphics too? I do graphics if you need help! Received mine today, sadly the season is pretty much over... Edited March 29, 2019 by Technick 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveo Posted March 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 @Technick can I ask the setback and taper on this board? Also how much decamber does the nose have? As in if you stand on it on a hard floor and push a piece of paper under it from the nose, how far does it go before it get stuck between the floor and the base? I think I'll be ordering something verrrrry similar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
