Longboarder09 Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) Fs/ft 163mm Fullbag Diamond Blade. I bought this board new last season and put 5 days on it. This is an incredible softboot carver with excellent edge hold and stability at speed. It also floats remarkably well on softer snow and is a versatile all mountain freeride machine. Cosmetically, there is some discoloration around the insert packs from my Flow center disks/baseplate elastomers. On the base, there are some superficial marks that should come out with a base grind (never been ground). There also appears to be less than an inch of typical mild surface oxidation on one of the edges that should come out with a wet stone, or an edge tune. Overall, a killer ride from boutique board builder, Mig at Fullbag! Edited February 6, 2020 by Longboarder09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadwood74 Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 no problem on hardboots as well. This is a good deal, lots of fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueB Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Whuh, good! I was so tempted to try that board, but I knew I would not like the width... And @Mig doesn't want to build me a narrower version 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Width is definitely noticeable as you change edges. If you change edges slowly, it feels almost like two discrete motions rather than a smooth roll. The effect can be minimized with technique, so I would still recommend trying it as there is so much good about the board. It holds an edge nearly as well as a hardboot board, and handles powder, bumps, and chop better than any freeride board I have ever ridden. The only time I would bother with my powder board now is if I know I can get untracked all day and there are flat sections I need to get past. The shallow nose dives in powder if you don't carry speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Nah, I know, from riding other boards, that 26.5 is too much. My boots are small and I ride only HB now days. Even with a duck stance on 25 waisted board I dont have much overhang. OTOH, if I wanted a dedicated SB carver, I'd be probably all over it.
