Probably not the thread for it; however, has anyone ridden or know anything about Offshore Snow Shape boards?

Big boy quiver
Pencil 163
Dart 164
Otto 161
Cafe racer 164

One is not mine

Guessing Santa is bringing a Trenchdigger and Bulldozer to round the quiver out............Tranny?

Tranny Finder review about to drop on Angry

 

[NT.Thunder]

It was pretty unreal to be honest. The board did great on groomers and on choppy terrain. I'm pretty sure I'm going to sell the fullbag supernaut now. If I want to carve I'll grab the stealth and if I want to be playful I'll grab the yup.

The stealth is incredible. I'm just completely blown away.

Gee you're getting around @ridethecliche 😂 Lucky bastard.............

I bought a TF in the end of season sale last year. This winter season is a no go for us in the UK I think, because Europe's borders are closed to us and we're still in quarantine, and there is a requirement to isolate for 10 days after return from abroad, which isn't something that I can do with my job. The situation with the borders is unlikely to be better by April, and that is optimistic.

I'm going to try and go to a Swiss/Austrian glacier in the summer, but those conditions aren't really great for Korua-like boards; I'll probably take my Warpig or Evil Twin.

So the first time I get to try out this amazing board will be >18 months after I bought it! 😭

Feel your pain, will be at least 12 months from the time I purchased the Surfari until it sees snow. Heartbreaking

Saw a second hand Tranny Finder yesterday here in Aus for $350 AUD/$260USD............🤔

 

[NT.Thunder]

So this is the board, could probably get it for $300AUD/$230USD

Slight damage to tail that I'm sure a bit of glue could fix. Thoughts?

Angry has dropped the Otto review here

 

[NT.Thunder]

Where are the pics of your new purchase?

I'm trying to hold strong, we've had a chat but I'm really wanting to hold off given I've got a couple of boards unridden - but it's not easy.

 

[NT.Thunder]

Hmmmm, might be worth picking up that 2nd hand tranny finder

 

[NT.Thunder]

You should have gotten that one over a week ago. Just put a nice sticker over the name!

Maybe, but my first priority is getting onto the mountain. I know this sounds easy but for some it's a logistical and pricey nightmare. I'm confident the Yup and Surfari will suffice with the PP as back-up.

 

[NT.Thunder]

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if I sold the Otto after a few uses or even the spam if it ever shows up. I think the SPAM is lost and gone forever though. Tracking hasn't updated in 2+ weeks. I think it's going to be cool to try, but I'm not sure it would be the daily I'd want.... who knows. Maybe I'll do a full 180 and want to sell the yup after this*.

I honestly think that everyone would call bullshit on this, but I really wish I had just like 2-4 boards that did everything I needed. I don't like having more than like 3-4 because I have to actually think about what I want to ride and that's not fun for me. I'd love a true daily driver and the closest thing I have to that right now is the yup, which is a lot of fun in all conditions except ice and the iguchi which is slightly less fun than the yup but solid in ice.

*Doubtful because at 153.5 it's my shortest board and one that I really like as a tree board for our tighter trees.

For me it's 2 boards and that's only because I air travel. If I lived within driving distance I'd buy a board a week I reckon and keep flipping them.

[NT.Thunder]

That's not showing up but man if that's the video from dmq... Holy shit goals.

Yeah that's the one with the Euro Carve

 

[NT.Thunder]

just want to let u know that the TF will have less setback(longer tail) for the 21/22 season, and will change name to transition finder.

Is this just to differentiate the board a little more from other Korua boards?

 

[NT.Thunder]

I’m an advanced super expert on double secret probation. My wife says so...so suck it!

You do you.

 

[NT.Thunder]

I was just gonna say... I traded my supernaut for something ember a year ago. Just saw one pop up for sale/trade on Facebook a week or so ago so they're out there.

Also seem amplid shit on fullbag on AS comments of one of their board reviews so that was kind of unnecessary. Don't know why a company would feel the need to crap on someone that isn't even really a competitor.

Was this on the Morning Glory review? Subtle dig, not much to see here.

 

[NT.Thunder]

I'm not sure saying a snowboard companies boards don't ride good is subtle. It may not be worded viciously but it is definitely pretty much the worst thing you could say about a board.

Meh, we live in a world where we are offended by everything and anything.

 

[NT.Thunder]

Sweet review on the Otto here, nice riding!

 

[NT.Thunder]

So a TF came up today for around $140 USD which caught my eye, unfortunately it seems it's had a core shot but been professionally repaired as per the ad below? I know nothing about repairs so what are people's thoughts on repairs to core shots? It's too small for me but curious on people's thoughts
