palmer crown le - Snowboarding Forum

i got the palmer crown le last year with ride cad bindings. i really like it but its a bit shorter than my last board, which was 163, and this one is 161. they are both palmers, but i was wondering ifanyone else has had any experience with the higher priced palmer boards or with the ride CAD bindigs. i think i may have wasted mah monies...

i didnt know palmer was still in business. so 1990s, haha

they made ok boards back in the day. dont really hear anything about them anymore and i never see em on the mountain. which leads me to believe they arent doing anything innovative. but i could be wrong, its happened once or twice before.

Isn't the crown like over a grand? If you like cardboard cores in boards more power to you.

I'm still riding my Palmer Carbon Circle from 2000 or so. It's the one featured in Palmers Pro Snowboarder game. Anyway I've always thought it was a good board.

That's one expensive board, remembers me of the Vapor. I've always wonder if this high priced boards are worth their money.
