I've had a few trices over the years. 161.5- a camber and a C2 Own first generation diodes that were samples. quick breakdown off the top of my head without looking at any tech: - The BG is faster from Edge to edge as the TRICE is almost a ww wide and at times felt sluggish with my 9.5 boot. - Bases are both decent speed wise but nothing special( IMO burton's WFO base is the fastest base on flat areas on the planet + holds wax better than libs) - The mTx has been toned down on the TRICE over the years and is much less aggressive.. The BG mtx is even more mellow and barely noticeable.- both hold a great edge with the TRICE being more aggressive. - Flex wise, the BG is a tad stiffer - TRICE is a twin flex/shape with centered stance and BG is Directional twin with a setback stance--- they are considered mid/stiff for boards these days, but both can be pressed. They feel like noodles compared to my Rossi Experience. - BG is not super stiff torsionally. Can't remember the TRICE as I sold it. - TRICE is poppier. - Both are pretty stable at speed(as stable as c2 can be- you will feel chatter if you really open up)--- - BG has some dampening tech in it and is smoother/damper than the TRICE. BG really shines off piste in open variable terrain. - Both do pretty well in deep snow-- I've ridden the BG in a few feet at Wolf creek and it excels.-- Rice is wider so it floats well too. - To sum it up - I liked them both. I still own the BG and sold the TRICE because the WW was not working with my boot size. Both boards are solid all mountain/freeride decks with the Rice leaning freestyle and the Goat Freeride. My issue was with the WW on the rice. |
