You can still have some fun fitting up the bindings and getting a carpet jib going!

Never ridden a rocker before so I am defs looking forward to it.

 

In Japan this year, I bought a K2 Turbo Dream 159.
Took me an afternoon at Dynaland to get used it it, adjust the set-up etc.
Awesome all mountain board, that handled knee deep pow perfectly.
Left it with the in-laws over there.
In Australia, I have an Option Custom 160, which is now about 4 years old.
Still in top shape and is perfect for everything. (I did use it in when I went to Asahikawa a few years back and was awesome in waste deep pop)

I’ve ridden a Burton Un-inc 159 for the past approx 4 years, so bought a new one this year, Rome Crossrocket. 154. should hopefully a good one! I’ll just have to wait and see! :D

 

Hi guys, total snowboarding noob here. My first board just arrived, a gnu riders choice 151.5. One quick Q, it has a sintered base, does this need waxing out of the box, or not for a bit? Thanks.

Andor generally when board leaves the factory they wax it for you, however most of us do wax the board even if its new.
Its really up to you if you want to wax it or not but as i said majority on here would wax the new board.

Yep, a lot of us are particular about our waxing therefore do it even on a new board.

But it will still ride fine if you dont. Just will prob need a wax after 2-3 days riding

Here’s a picture of my two boards!

Right is Burton Un-Inc, EST, Cartels, 159. I think it’d be the 2010 or 09 model.. guessing.

Left is the new quiver! Rome Crossrocket, ‘12, 154. Bought Cartels again, as the EST are non interchangeable..


The little slogan thing on the Crossrocket says: “Till the last chair stops, our time was never wasted”

The Un-Inc says “Justice.. or Just Us?”  Random info you may not know, All the white area is glow in the dark!! Top and Base.
