i demoed a gnu park pickle this year and i almost had to change my underwear (they were long underwear too so imagine the mess!) its too bad it was out of my price range or i would have one in my quiver right now.
Elan inverse 07. Though its a noodle from many ppl pov, I can really charge with that board at ease. Now riding trice and still think the trice is heavy
One of my first boards, K2 HC. I have no idea what year it was from; early 90's I think, but coupled with the super-low-back k2 bindings and straps that locked down it was a blast. Still sitting in my basement
Hmmm directional camber. True twin Camber for the win!
I loved my shift to a true twin from my Directional Burton Canyon (wide version of the custom) for effortless perfect switch riding. I must admit I could ride switch well on the Canyon but there were "those occassions" where it would give like a weird tweek or kick, I did have the stance most centered I could but the combination of the shitty Burton 3D limited mounting positions, the directional sidecut and forced setback (unless I went crazy on the stance width) made it a bit dodge.
My first true twin was a revelation.
This post reminds me of my first board was a 98 Airwalk Match, great for learning rails but would just fold on any decent sized jumps, and low back with minimal straps bindings..haha how things have changed...yet like all good fashions come around again.
Longest Owned board = 05 GNU Riders Choice, that's the most stoked I've ever been for a snowboard and I still have it to date and will never sell it. It's also literally the toughest board I've ever ridden in regards to durability.
Best Big Mountain Freestyle = 2012 NS Heritage
Best Freeride board = 2011 GNU Billy goat
Best park/jump board = Rome Mod Rocker
Best All Mountain Board = K2 Turbodream or the Nitro Team Gullwing
Best Camber board for all mtn = Lib Tech TRS
The deadliest catch (mans board)= Nitro Team Factory edition.
Best hard charging Powder board = 2010 Nitro Pantera LX
Best bindings = Flux SF45 & Raiden Phantoms
