Does that have the "slasher" sidecut 

I sent Bruce 2 vids of my riding, a template and some discussions equaled this Stick 😀 the Cold Surf Trestle Special.                          Bruce sent a video of his test ride, where he showed it works just like we hoped 🧩😁               I am waiting for a good swell to hit, before paddling out

Got Any specs @softbootsurfer?

I don't know if I'm looking a gun, or a glider, or a fun board.

Maybe it's a small wave groveler?

That is very creative @fumbimo My son use to spend hours building worlds designing homes in Minecraft when he was younger. He would have loved to put some of that on his Coiler. 

Thanks! I loved Minecraft as a kid and did the same. I still binge it once a year or so.

Proudly presenting the first ever T4 softy Contra! 

174cm overall, 298mm waist, 14m radius, stiff enough to scare me just a little...

Just in time also, we're expecting at least two more days of top notch carving before the next storm. 

See those two small lights over the nose at treeline?  Those are the groomers working hard to cover all my tracks from the morning session.  So inspiring!

Sadly, this may be the last new board posted to this season's board porn thread, but it's also my third in this thread so I think maybe I win?

Sweet! How much EE does that beast have? I hope Bruce isn't too annoyed by my pestering every time I see these wide Contras posted here. 🤣

I'm hoping 136cm EE, 300mm waist 16m radius softy Contra would soon be reality.

174 x 30 looks amazing! So much volume, that’s one huge board!

I can’t remember the effective edge on my 163, but something tells me it’s somewhere around 139 maybe? I suspect Bruce could come really close to 300mm with a 16m sidecut, because the nose/tail wouldn’t be as wide with the longer sidecut. My all-rounder is 163/~10m/28.3cm, so with a significantly larger sidecut and possibly a slightly shorter board I think he would be damn close to 30cm.

My beloved Angrry suffered a rider induced bend? Wave? Magnetraction? Bruce made me a homage to my old board since it filled a big spot in the quiver. 165 Angrry asym 21cm wide, teal. Love the gloss top will be a bummer when it’s all scratched up this afternoon. She’s a turny little bandit! (Trademark @barryj)

update: did a 1080 carve on it and rode away . Was spinning like a skater and couldn’t stop

I previously didn't get the lengthwise graphic until I saw more pics of folks taking pictures sitting with their boards looking downhill and the Coiler is nicely visible.  

Do Goofy foot riders get the logo done on the left side of the board?

My dreams are fulfilled. Softboot Coiler Contra with hybrid construction combining softboot and alpine constructions (gotta ask Bruce for more details), 164cm x 30cm waist, 16m sidecut, 136cm EE. Just came back from the first test ride and the board seems spectacular. Will add some Coiler logos next. I prefer stickers for the embossed look and placement versatility:

Xargo, that board description sounds awesome.  Graphics are top notch.  

So it looks like I just bought the lighter version of Big Mario’s Thirst 8RW; a new goofy foot with a slinky 18.7 cm waist and a .266 flex.  For my photography session, I went with the theme of this thread… cue the Rick James funkadelic soundtrack.
