What do you ride? Snowboard.

[mjk462]

Whats you're setup like?

I'm size 11 with burton rulers..
still looking for a board and bindings.

Option and Burton so far...

I'm into freeriding than park but I can dabble my way into some jumps some time

[rideit]

Sir, some words of advice.

Focus NOT on what device you slide down snow covered (or not) hills on, but on the FEELING and SHAREABLE EXPERIENCE that whatever wood/carbon/plastic/unobtanium plank brought you in this gravity (and sweat) induced endeaver brought you to the nirvana that needed to be expressed in such a public medium.
For the most part, we are all here to share the hard to express snow stoke...and encourage others to not only participate, but share in many various ways in the participation of that exact endeavor.
Offer rides.
Share information.
Buy beer.
Warn of dangers.

All of those things, and more.
Kudos, Mazeltov, and velkommen.
or whatever, I'm wasted.

Snow, bro!

[mjk462]

oh I agree with you 100% but I'm shopping for my own equipment and I'm just curious what everyone who snowboards here is rocking.

in any case, I'm stoked to board the Italian Alps in Bormio this December! But thats not on topic now is it =[

I ride a glissade shortbus= 165 LE and I luv it. You are abt 6' tall so I'm guessing we are the same size, this board is a bit large by most standards for the reort but it does it all, alittle slow on rotations but it rips

bindings, its a shame there aren't more companies out there with a good product, rides high end mods are ok, get the flow team binding= better performance and you'll spend more time riding, less time screwing with straps.

techtalk bitch?

swallowtails...anything else is just a big a skateboard.

[Dr Pooface]

Prior khyber 165 for pow, Burton superfly 162 for crud/rocks, Prior khyber 160 split for bc.

The 165 just fucking kills it in the pow.

i usually ride a k2 satellite 158 wide (only size 8 boot, 140lbs). burton custom bindings. i also have a park board thats pretty small and crappy.

You need to schedule us a demo day with that lumberyard.

[rideit]

I have a little problem letting go of boards I love...
I also have a Terje Hakkonsen 159, and a Pryder 170, strictly for rock season...
Ghee, you were too swilly at the party, I was gonna give you a tour of the collection. But that fire was too big and tempting.
(and I admit, the Nitro is a loaner when I need it)

I have been sliding on snow for a year or two, grasshopper....




(but I did score that in 90' or so)
My first real board was the 77 Burton, which I bought from Jake out of his mom's garage in 1980. I had no clue that it was a few years old...$45. felt like a rip-off!
