First Thirst for me.  Pretty excited to get out there.  WARP Superconductor 175/19.1.  As with most Thirsts I have seen, it’s hard to capture the brilliance of the topsheet in indoor light, but it’s awesome and never looks exactly the same from any angle. Thanks MM for a great build with remarkable attention to detail and finish.

beautiful board.  any chance you'd consider taking another picture that is a profile shot, board on the floor ?  i know hardwood flooring has variances and is not perfectly flat, but i am wondering what the camber profile looks like, from just a glance.  it really is pleasing to look at.

So where and how did you pull in the Gray's.... Zen.. 

actually super easy , the fastest way for buying a Japanese snowboard is from rakuten japan, basically a Japanese Amazon! 

There is a website call rakuten global express, they will handle the shipping and they had well explain everything on their website. there are also tons of YouTube video teaching you how buy stuff from rakuten japan.

Buying a snowboard is the same as you buying anything else from Japan. Shipping to the US is around $250, depends on what carrier you use UPS package usually only take 4 days to get to the US after it ship out. 

as long as you have a credit card label with visa or master card you payment should go through. 

PM me if you still have questions.

thanks AJCdice. now i think i want one.

 

You actually "want" a Superconductor because of how it will ride. Colour is for lift rides and between seasons, for when you are so dry and thirsty for your next Superconductor ride!

PS: 😉 added after I saw the response below. A little gentle ribbing was my intent. Mark makes beautiful boards.

That *is* why I ordered this board—the ride and what it might do for my riding.  Sorry to talk about the color *during* the season.  If I need to spend $1200 on a snowboard, you can bet I want it to look how I want it to look. Thanks.

174 Wogo 12m <-- thanks to @dredman for all the advice on WoGo
165 Contra A/T 10m <-- thanks to @bigwavedave sharing his spec; this a "copy"

I think the @bigwavedaveContra a/t should be a standard build that Bruce does. Only have a couple of runs on mine but it’s a quiver of one!

@pow4ever WOGOCOCO is hands down the finest freecarving board I have ridden. Blending the Contra with some @Shred Gruumer tech really works for me.  So easy and forgiving, but lively and fun.  Best icy crappy groom board I have been on.  It is so quiet under foot, and positively engaged.  I hope it works as well for you! Stay centered on the board for best performance.  
 

I am so impressed with the performance of the new side cuts and flexes in the new generation freecarve boards.  Kessler, Thirst and the Coiler Contra series are really helping folks level up the freecarving game.  Enjoy!
