Looking for a change in board
Nice board mate, did you go the HP or the normal version? I think they have made them a little softer than the 2011 one I have so it should be fairly different to your Gnu and more playful, hope you enjoy it!
Oh and most importantly when are you going to test it out?
Just the normal, no one seems to have the HP one is stock! Still cant wait to get on it!
Going to thredbo for a quick weekend on the 20/21st so dont need to wait very long :D! Going to squease in as many trips as i can this season to get ready for Hakuba in feb 
Nice one, oriphinz! Let us know how it goes.

Will do!
Board is still on its way (courier should be in NSW by now )
Picked up a decent bag as yesterday, figured the new board deserves it and will need it for japan anyway. Fits everything in really nicely only downside is my massive boots dont fit in the way they are supposed to… good enough though.
Also grabbed some burton goretex gloves cause my old ones leak when the palms get wet and some burton mini scrappers for the board Pics to come
Annnnnd the new board came!!!
Looks awesome, digging the pointy tips and magnetraction. Even has a dude with a flower as a head! :s
Will throw by bindings on tonight Bindings are straight black so should match well.
Reckon i should get it hot waxed before i go i do a 2 day trip? Apparently factory wax should be fine for the short trip and then i might look into getting the gear to wax it myself when i get back so i can keep it in check.
Got one more Q for you guys, any recommendation on helmates? Never worn one before but i want to start hitting some jumps etc so i think its time. (Reading link now)
Never mind! Got some random smith helmet one that was coooomfy
I got sandbox quiet nice helmets and they seem to be very comfy, but again just make sure ur goggles are compatible with helmet
Thanks for sharing the photos. Looks really nice!

Yeh i heard good things about Sandbox helms, but just went to my local and tried a bunch on. The smith ended up being the best fit for my massive head lol. Will test with the goggles tonight. Can always swap it if they dont fit
Thanks for sharing the photos. Looks really nice!
No worries! thanks for all the advice ill throw some pics up with the bindings and maybe a self pose ha!
Annd here it is ready to go!! Binding on (9deg /15deg to start).
Topsheet has some sparkle going on:
And the goggles fit the new helm!!

Nice board mate! Pretty sure that is the one I demoed at last year’s Shred. Was good fun. Liked to charge hard. I was taking it over the FV jumps on a 153 and felt super solid
