Im looking at a Never summer titan to add to my quiver of boards for next season. The only ones I can find however are 169 and 161. I am 6ft5" and 190 lbs.
My quiver for next season:
164 Santa Cruz Wide Pan Head (screw around/rock board)
163 Never Summer Legacy-R (For pow booters and not so gnar)
? Never Summer Titan (For pinning it, which is what I do anyway 90% of the time anyway)
I figure that if I keep my legacy-R ill still have a really good board to ride that is more mellow so I can go kinda crazy with the titan.
Would I be absolutely insane if I bought a 169? Is there some new tech going into the Titan for next season and I should just wait? Is there going to be snow next year in the PNW?
Ok sweet yeah haha ive been on the edge for about a month now im just dissapointed I dident get it before the resorts closed. Thoughts on the 169 on like crappy days? I found a 165 TX but id rather go for the regular because my boots are only 11.5
Also should I just go all out and buy some Rome Arsenals (or whatever stiff binding you suggest (im not just talking to you flik (wow triple sidecomment thingys))) or would a pair of rome targas with the stiff inserts work well for both the legacy-r and titan? (just switch between)
I use Arsenals and they are phenomenal. I don't think have a board THAT much bigger is going to make any difference. I ride a 165 and I'm 10 pounds lighter. You'd be fine. That's a sick board so you should definitely get it.
Hey, how does that setup work? This is very similar to what I'm looking for (169 Titan TX or 167 Arbor Roundhouse with Step In's, Arsenals, or maybe CAD's). Is it even possible to land a jump with those aluminum highbacks? And do you get any vibration issues do to all the aluminum?
