I haven't rode it but by the sounds of how its been described I'd say its ideal for tail blocks. I think a mid flex all mountain board is best for tail blocks cause you can really sit on that tail, whereas a super soft board bends too much...at least for me anyway, I could be trippin...
--- I would love to see all these tricks done on a custom x...I feel like you would have to have ridiculously strong legs, but maybe im just a little butter bitch and need a soft board to get down on these tricks... |

I have a Salomon Answer, stiffness rated 4 out of 5. I was able to do a tail press, but couldn't really lift the nose up high enough without leaning really far back. Am I kidding myself for trying to butter with my board?

The Art of Flatland Snowboarding __ Butter vid 2.0 - YouTube Has anyone compared the flex & butterability of a Custom X versus NS SL? I strapped into my SL today on carpet...flex/pop is great, but it's one HEAVY mutha. |

hey now, I'm stuck living where I am for the next year or so, and my local hill is just shallow groomers and a below-average park. I get to head out West for the real stuff maybe once/twice a year. Until then I figure I can work on fun butters and switch.
