Rusty Edges Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 Rude Boy!!!!! RIP Terry Hall. I saw the Specials at the Commodore in Vancouver back in 2019. Opening night of their tour. I've never seen such a tame Mosh Pit. A full house of 40 and 50 Somethings. The entire crowd was channeling their teenage skate punk. The outfits were spectacular! Thanks for the memory. ***First Refusal when you decide on a new board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Gendzwill Posted December 26, 2023 Report Share Posted December 26, 2023 James, is that the full bx shape on yours? What’s the EE? Your wife’s looks more all-terrain-y. I didn’t know Bruce was building them that wide. Mine is supposed to be showing up on Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, I got the widest Coiler ever built. I'm gonna even try it without risers next time out. Both boards are standard CFRs but now I'm kind of thinking I might like the BX shape for a little more g-force and a little less scrub, a thinner track and more conservation of energy. I asked for a smaller, slower board because I'm just 12 weeks out of surgery for a ruptured bicep tendon and I need to be careful with the front arm for a while. I started the season with the arm in a sling inside my jacket to protect it, then I went up to the hand in the pocket for a bit before deciding that both hands in the pockets has a certain aesthetic, even if it's only symmetry. I'm working on it. It's hard to make carving look easy... Here's an attempt to ride the famous Fowley's Lap in that style. Not my best run of the day but the best one we got on video. So my new board is designed for slow speed carving so that when I do fall, at least I'm not moving very fast. I want to see how far I can take the hands in the pockets thing. This board opens up some blue terrain for me that would just be too fast on my 12m plus boards. Fowley's Lap is a classic Revelstoke blue (which means it has a black diamond section, like all Revelstoke blue runs). It bowls out very nicely though for eight of the best turns on the mountain. Here are six of them. The last two turns are steep and fast I couldn't quite make them today. Coming soon though, stay tuned. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slabber Posted December 26, 2023 Report Share Posted December 26, 2023 Bruce mentioned some recent production issues - perhaps some challenges in getting those wide boards finished I'm torn between getting a softboot Contra and another hardboot board... thinking I'm going to stick with another hardboot Contra given I think there will continue to be more options avail for SB boards in future.

Popular Post Corey Posted December 26, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 26, 2023 Santa Bruce was kind to me! Coiler T4 Asmocarve 173. 21.5 waist, ~11.5m Contra sidecut. I mentally bought this board on the 4th turn after @johnasmo let me ride his prototype at MCC. The picture resizing app added a heavy moire pattern. The design reminds me of a heat affected zone on titanium. I love it so much! Like this: 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Neil Gendzwill Posted December 28, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Merry Christmas to me! Thanks to Bruce for the fantastic build and Nic for the graphics assist. 166 Contra SB with the all-terrain tip/tail. 138 cm effective edge, 27 cm waist, 10 m sidecut, 12 mm taper, looks like about 5 mm camber. Graphics inspired by the 2nd board I ever owned, although mine was the more common yellow-orange stripes. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, with my Coiler Angrry 160 build I also was going for a tribute to one of my Favs.....2000 Sims 166 Daytona in Candy Apple Red with pin-striping along the length of the board. This was as close as Bruce and his graphics guy could get. Edited December 29, 2023 by barryj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
