Jarcode Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) Old school glass race board in all its glory. This was my first alpine board. When I emailed Bruce asking for details about the board, he referred to it as a "museum piece" and discouraged riding it. So, if you are purchasing this with the intention of riding it, be prepared for an extremely unforgiving ride. 14.2m sidecut, 184cm running length, 19cm waist, rider weight of ~175lbs if I had to guess from the original owner, and fiberglass construction. This means zero dampening, poor performance in less than ideal conditions, and a terrifying amount of pop out of turns. Asymmetrical construction, regular stance. Some of the rear inserts are damaged but easily repairable, likely from removing the equally ancient bindings that were fused to the board when I got it. The topsheet construction is also unusually thick, so you may need longer screws to mount most plate bindings to this board. 100CAD plus shipping from BC, Canada. Also willing to sell locally in person at any resort in or near the lower mainland next season. dog not for sale minor scratches Edited May 15, 2022 by Jarcode 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admire anyone bold/adventurous/crazy enough to take it out. Thanks for the laugh, and best of luck with the sale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having personally used this board last season it has to be stated to deter any inexperienced rider from purchasing it. It's still a blast to ride if you have the skills and athleticism to tame it, but the dated construction really shows when compared to modern alpine snowboards.

Jarcode Posted January 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 This board may be turned into a wall piece this season, pick it up before I drill into it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
