cornpone Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 I ride an avalance, I hear Rome makes nice boards. $500 seems pretty steep for a pass. I got mine for like $200, but then again it is for ober.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iloveboxcars Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 ugh. i am buying an all new set up this year. the main problem i am having is with the board. what is it with snowboards looking like complete fucking retards got a hold of photoshop and took a graphic design class? i really like simple designs. like the burton idioms look off the fucking hook. but i am in no way at the level of needing a 700 dollar fucking snowboard. so with that said, is there any recommendations for a stylish board for an all-mountain type of person? i've searched for a bit now and every design i have liked so far has been the 700+ range. anything less than that would be a start. help sons! thanks.

MrChupacabra Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I probably won't ride at all at the local places this year, much like the past years, since i don't really enjoy paying money to ride down a 300 foot hill and having to spend more time waiting in lift lines and on the lift than riding. However, i'm going out to utah mid january and i can't fucking wait. Here's to hoping for fresh powder and as much of it as possible.

mosluggo Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I have a huge crack in my old burton. Been looking myself, and the next board will prob be a forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosluggo Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Im willing to spend the dough for a board i like but 650 still seems kind of steep. But extremegear.com has some burtons in the 450$ range. Then they also have the retarded 700+ boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reuben Kinkaid Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I never got in to snowboarding, even though all of my friends and girlfriend do it. I prefer to wear turtlenecks and sip wine in the lodge. Me and Hydrogen Peroxide need to hit up Whistler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NerdUnit Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Nice board. I remember when LibTech was brand new. Those are nice bindings too. I like when you can move the toe strap down so it will push the boot backwards into the binding. I hate when my heel lifts up. Have fun riding. I'm jealous.
