Lamar Cranium vs Sims Protocol vs? - Page 2 - Snowboarding Forum

ya i know all the marketing says they are "low maintence", they are supposed to be easier to repair. If you have a sintered base just have it waxed everynow and then.

Some guys will argue that wax doesn't really help all that much and it may be true. But i find that it is nice to have it done/do it every now and then. I do it myself so i probably wax more then i need to, especially on my sintered boards.

Cranium no question. Actually a super fun board that's worth more than they charge.
