Okay, so this is going to be my second serious season, my sister is going to get me a board for christmas + my birthday. This will be my first powder board as I don't realistically see that much powder living in S. California and don't travel much. I plan to see at the very least 4-5 powder days this season, and I am planning a trip to Japan next year.
I'm 6ft, 220lbs, size 10.5 boots. Home mountain: big bear, plan on ski bumming powder days at Mammoth.
current boards: NS type 2 160, and rome reverb rocker 160
Should I get one of those short and fat powder decks or something more traditional?
Should I forgo the above and get a charger that can work in powder? i.e. a Flight attendant
short and fat: yes optimistic, 420 powder hull, ride warpig, jones hovercraft
normal: capita charlie slasher or warpspeed, yes PYL, NS 25/swift, 167 flight attendant, landlord, PYL
charger: 162w flight attendant, capita mercury or warpseed, jones flagship
I'm probably missing a couple in my list.. and a lot of the boards probably overlap categories.
have at it!
