I love riding them but after riding my otto at Jay peak, I've come to the strong realization that they're mediocre quiver boards at best for someone that lives on the east coast. Sure you can ride them on hardpack days, but switching my otto to my iguchi camber gave me 2x the confidence for icy runs.

They're fantastic boards, but if I keep them, I just have to be okay with the fact that I'll be lucky if I ride them for a max of 10% of the days out east. NTTAWYT.
Iguchi just has better hold? Does it have edge tech, or the traditional camber is just better? I don't know anything about that board.

I just got new Fuses, and I'm rocking my old liners in them for awhile. It's great to have the response of a new boot without having to break it in at all.

I wonder why more boots don't use a burrito wrap liner. I personally love the feel.
Bought my son a pair of lasso pro wides because he finally outgrew my hand me downs. They're so comfy.

Looks like my korua days are going to come to a hiatus. I really did not like the Otto for my riding style and have a trade lined up for it.

I loved the stealth and I'm still unsure about this... But I have a trade lined up for it as well.

I have a feeling ill come back to them in time when I have a bit more experience. I can't wait to get rid of the Otto but I'm still not sure about the stealth. I just know I need to ride the stealth 10/10ths to enjoy and I'd like a board I can dial back on. Riding the stealth on open groomers was one of the best feelings I've had on a snowboard. Hopefully the board im trading it for comes close but allows me to tool around a bit more.

I just realized I'd never pick the Otto over the spam. So that made that one way easy hell, if my iguchi was a bit wider I'd never ride the Otto over that either. Thankfully we all have different tastes.

I think it might be time to mess with amplid next!
So, what are you getting?!

Maybe I'll have to revisit in a few years when I have more seasons in my legs!
Glad you dig it man. Stoked for ya!
Despite being stiff, it's not dead at all. Perfect conditions for it today, choppoed up pow along the grommers, and some stashes left still, mostly on the trees. Blasted through the chunder, plenty of float, way better than I expected, and of course carves. It's a keeper for me.
