barryj Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 (edited) Thank God it's finally October! I'm on the AIL sidelines until (hopefully only!) March if all goes well with PT but here's my quiver for this upcoming season. My arsenal has slimmed down from 5 to 3 boards this season. 1- Swoard Dual II 168 - my everyday, all conditions work board, EC board 2- Coiler Angrry 160 XXT + Donek UPM F Plate - Hard Charging Carving Machine 3- Moss PQ60 - It will ride/carve everything but I save it just for Pow days If I had to be limited to only one board, this would be it! 4- And to provide me inspiration while on the AIL sidelines I got another turny little bandit in the oven at Donek that Sean promises I will see in early Dec. that will round out the arsenal! I'll hang it on the wall for motivation until the day I can get out and ride it! What's Your Lineup??

Jack M Posted October 13, 2023 Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 barryj, you are the undisputed king of underhang. Also, I thought you had a Donek AF plate too? "Easy Jungle" is the funniest name in all of snowboarding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha! Yea Jack, your not the first to pen that!...that's been my moniker for quite awhile here! Historically I had set all my boards at the same angles....it's just what worked, or has worked for me but with this upcoming ankle surgery for a torn left outside tendon, well now I feel I have to try to learn to ride with the angles on the wider boards set out to the edge. This debate has gone on for quite awhile here and I had, of course tried the Fuego box method to move my angles but riding those decreased angles just felt too awkward to change at the time. But now, well I feel I have to adapt...... because I have to decrease the amount of torque/pressure on my post surgery weak ankles and hamstrings! Yes.....I'm still the UPM Plate Master and Yes I still have a Donek AF (or two ). The AF was/is the Bomb on my K168!! ......... but the F plates are OMG Wow! on the shorter (Rev and Angrry) boards .......which is just how the Master, Sean designed their application!

philw Posted October 13, 2023 Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 Yeah I'd not be able to ride with underhang like that. Back when I was using steeper angles on powder boards I couldn't ride the things in hardpack for that reason; I didn't like the force I needed to apply to make them track.

crote123 Posted October 25, 2023 Report Share Posted October 25, 2023 The last two on the right haven't been used in a long...long... time. The others, I make sure to take them out at least a few times a year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, nope, nope! But strangely I wouldn’t be averse to calling VSR a mullet sidecut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a fence picket with coaxial wire holders. I change the screws out to 1 1/4” coarse thread drywall screws and adjust to fit. Boards work pretty well too but I just use m6 to mount bindings to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
