Postermania vs Skate Banana for next season - Snowboarding Forum

EmoParkRat · 03-30-2009, 10:56 AM

So I broke my artifact and am looking for a board for park. I wanna try a rockered board and I'm looking for something to do mostly jibbin and some jumping. I really liked my artifact but I want something a little stiffer for jumps so i'm choosing between a postermania 149 or a skate banana 148. I'm 5'10, 120 lbs, size 8 boot. Price doesn't matter and I'm open to other suggestions as well.

If you want something rockered and stiffer than your artifact look at the artifact 85 instead. I'll have reviews coming out next week of the postermania, pusher, and artifact 85 on my site.

There's a ton of decks I could list for next season that fit that bill which are so much fun.

BA I envy you for your ability to ride almost every board and binding, and potentially combinations of both for free

Don't be envious I do it for people like you that get something from reviews. Besides there's a lot of time that goes into it that people don't realize. I still haven't finished writing all the reviews from demo day 2 which was in February, then there's day 3 to finish up, a few other random boards I've hopped on, and Richard over at True snowboards is sending me a grip load to ride. I'll also probably get on a few more decks before the end of my season.

I just appreciate that you guys are better informed from it.

BA - you should just let me ride your boards instead. I type faster.

RidePowder · 03-30-2009, 01:53 PM

yea, were young, can ride more than 4 hours at a time and dont type with two fingers

Is this a challenge? I'll just leave it at this I rode 126 days last season and rode 107 different guys boards. You do the math.
