biscote3 Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 How much would it be worth? I got three of these from a guy that worked at volant and sold them t me before they closed. I used this one twice this last season and i swear they are the best boards ive ever ridden!!! but anyways let me know, if someone hits me with the right price I might move to another board. Email me with offers!!! for I get alittle lazy with checking this forum when its not snow time....lates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

www.oldsnowboards.com Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Super fun board! Lots of sidecut. I think you will find sort of a split amoung those that have ridden the board here on BOL. They had a tendency to come apart. Fairly soft boards. So for the bigger/heavier riders they may be questionable. I have one and it rode it a couple partical days. Fun snappy(for a short time) and very cool looking. Kurt, you are a bigger guy , so , know that it might not last a long time for you? Mine did not delam yet, however the camber is GONE. Rides more like an old Sims Terry "Skidwell" now. Almost concaved after couple half days. I think I didn't give it much slack. Hope that helps. I would still like to get a brand new old stock for the collection. Caus the SS is just so bling bling!! Not to mention the novalty factor.

tex1230 Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 I was looking at one of these a while back on ebay - it sold for $73.00 I think 2 or 3 months ago (it was an agression, but same board) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trikerdad Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 I rode mine for 5 years. I felt it was pretty stiff and very tortionally stiff. Still had plenty of camber left when I sold it this last season and I weigh about 220. There are still days I have to remind myself why I sold it, needed the money to try different boards. Now I have 4 of them and can't say I've gained a whole lot over the Volant 173. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.oldsnowboards.com Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Hmm, I wonder if mine is somehow different or what? I still have mine. I think it was new or near new when I gpt it. I will have to get it out and look at it again. I recall it would lay flat on the floor with no camber. I was getting concerned when I put it away. I liked it for the quick turns. I just tend to prefer the big boards overall. It sure is a cool looking board. It would be tempting to polish one to a bright chrome finish just for fun. Probably not good on a bright day though :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
