Powder/Park Board?

Yeh, I just realized that looking through their sight then. At first I thought it was instead of the Darkstar, but looks like the Lifelike has replaced that

@Gamblor, Did you regret buying the TFA over the BSOD?

@Gamblor, Did you regret buying the TFA over the BSOD?

No. A couple of reasons:

1) the $100 difference (in US$) is a big one monetarily but the difference in ride is not that great. They’re both good boards. The biggest difference to me is the weight. The BSOD is super light. A super light board is great to have but to me it’s not that essential. The TFA weighs like a normal board.

2) well, it was harder to come up with another reason. If I had been looking for an allround board and had been comparing the 62 bsod vs the 61 tfa, I would have gotten the bsod because the waist on the 61 tfa is too wide for me. I like narrower waists.

Thanks man! Well that there alone was enough to convince me the BSOD is the way to go. I love light boards and the idea of hauling around a lighter board sounds great. Also I like narrower waists aswell.
