True, I do own a Cobra. I have yet to ride her though. Going to test her out this weekend.

For anyone who has actually ridden a TRS this year, can you please tell me how they do in powder? I understand that as a twin it will not be as good as a directional, but I'd appreciate some on-the-mountain experience.

What about the Phoenix Lando board? I'm thinking either it or the TRS may be the board for me. Any opinions? Please check out my original post to see what I am looking for. I appreciate the comments

I would go with the Jamie Lynn Phoenix, either the C2 or the more camber-ish new C3. Can really charge, but slightly less directional than the Lando.

People suggested the lando to me when I was looking, it wasn't available where I was buying.

Hate to throw out yet another board for ya, but have you looked at the billy goat? I came across it while tying to find something similar to the lando.

Good luck!!

Thank you to everyone who has commented. There are so many good boards out there I feel like at this point I could just pick one out of a hat and be thrilled with it on the mountain.
If only the Cobra had a different graphic on it...
And why are there no valid Cyber Monday deals on these boards that we all actually WANT to purchase?
