I've only been out on a board twice, but it's the funnest thing I've ever tried. One of the most painful too Anyhoot things have progressed nice(riding blues) after 10 hours on the hills. I like it so much, and have so many days marked on the calendar to go ride, that I'm grabbing my season summit pass and getting my own gear to ride. Much more cost effective. I turn 40 2/23 and guess what I plan to do that day.

This week is sure going slow in anticipation of spending a long weekend on my own gear. Going to Buckey Sports tonight to pick out a board, bindings, and boots. It will probably end up:

Burton Elite or Royale
Burton Custom bindings
Burton Freestyle boots if they fit good.

Grab a Summit pass Friday AM and away I go.

Jeffksf

Woohoo, Team Burton!

Happy Birthday

Your kidding about team burton?
You may also want to check out the KILTED YAK which is right down the road from there.
just to see there prices. might be a good idea to check some online retailers for there prices
and print it out, so if store is higher you can beat them up on the price alittle.

and Happy birthday.

buckeye is currently having their clearance sale. I looked briefly but couldn't beat it online with shipping based on the Elite which is less than $240.00 at buckeye. Boots were $118.00 and bindings about $100 if I remember correctly. I can see their is the typical arguments over gear and vendors just like anything else. The shop at Brandywine seemed like it was mostly Burton so that's all I really got to look it.

The biggest thing is to make sure the stuff is right for you. You don't want to end up with the wrong size board just because it was on sale.
What is your Ht, Wt, and shoe size?
What size board are you looking at?
I'll make some recommendations from that info.
seems like good pricing.

I was just kidding, burton makes some of the best stuff and it will last you along time.
but the last burton board i owned was a 1993 brushi and i still have it. I dont use it.
