Never summer fanboys/girls - Snowboarding Forum

I know there are lots of you out there. I have a 1997 K2 Fatbob, a 2012 Attack Banana and a 2013 Jones Hovercraft. Assuming I had the cash, and was "tempted" to buy a NeverSummer board, which one would you add to the quiver?

I should add that I don't spend much time in the park, if any. I am going out on Boxing day just to have a sniff, and if there was a smoking deal, I could see myself pulling the trigger.

Depends on what you want to do with it. All around fun, go Proto. Powder oriented all around fun, go Cobra. More of a bomber, go Raptor.

I think a Heritage or SL would be too similar to your Attack Banana to justify it.

The Proto and the Cobra are the most versatile quiver killers in the Neversummer line. The others are more task specific; they will do everything pretty well, but are engineered for specific tasks. If you are more freestyle oriented the Proto if your are more freeride oriented the Cobra.

Thanks Wolf. I think I am going to put my Attack Banana on Kijiji. After riding my new Hovercraft (on ice and pow) I fell in love and realized the AB is not for me. The only thing I do is freeride and hit small kickers. Once I master the 180 then its the 360 and that is it. I don't plan on doing rails or boxes. Don't want to push it. Never was a skateboarder.

I would like to see a 180 on the hovy

, and keep your AB. You never know..... Is the hovercraft that versatile? Camber with rocketed nose and swallow tail. Hmm. I would imagine its not the most effortless to ride....?
