Hey Mike. It's only a few days old. Haha you get an avatar... aren't you stoked?
What DVD?
foxpuppet, I think I've seen you on the snowatch forums. Same person?
Greetings all, didn't change my handle as I thought it might get confusing. Had such a sick time at Snowpark for the NZ Open, the standard of pipe riding was off the hook, Danny Davis had the sickest run for me, huge fs 900 > bs900 > fs1080 > sw bs1080 > massive alley-oop bs rodeo but slid out in the flat bottom.Such sick style, all hsi spins were so corked...
Demoed an 07 custom 56 and I'm sold, the new shape is so much fun...tried the 07 '56 uninc too, but not nearly as fun as the custom was.
G,
Sorry I didn't get to catch up with you. I only had one hike after getting up there when I text you and it took us the rest of the afternoon to walk out. Was ABSOLUTELY knackered when we eventually got out and we bailed at about 3.15pm.
The run was 300mtr vet drop (gps comes in handy) and really soft.
Will have to hook up round vegas bro. I am heading up agin this weekend if you are.
I would probably compare it to a lighter, poppier se7en, the i-beam definitely amps up the pop. Definitely noticed the speed of the WFO base compared to my option (which has sintered gallium) and the uninc. The 10mm setback is pretty sweet, I ride with the stance as wide as it'll go and it was very happy switch, much more so than my decks. I would prob want to try a longer one if I was using it for pow, but the flex pattern is real nice, almost like a twin flex. I was at snowpark, so it was just jibbing and hitting the jumps. Felt real nice on the jibs, easy to control and good stiffness. I would definitely consider a 58 as my only board.
Thanks for the report! I think I will get the 154. I wonder how good the new shape will be for pow?
due to lack of snowfall.

Nuh I wasn't going, but I would have had interest in it. It just highlights how bad this season really is. 2nd worst on record. NZ is getting all our snow! hehe
