I think I'm leaning towards the soft flex with EGS. In the suboptimal conditions that I rode them, I didn't feel like I could turn the midflex as tig...
Further thoughts (I’ve been drinking @riotsupercarver ’s Kool-aide)… when you start really laying over a board, the construction probably means a lot ...
Where are you from? I would not call that stocky. That’s probably a good BMI. My adult weight has fluctuated from 135-200… often with too much on t...
The other thing I’ll note is the Feeecarver (at least the 6) REALLY breaks in. Initially it was stiffer than my ‘23 Rome Stalefish. They’re both mad...
That video that Lars did was great. It seemed like a fair comparison, though he probably could have touched on the superior construction of the Stran...
@reximus It’s a 12m sidecut so the turns are naturally a bit bigger than your average board (that's almost 80’ in diameter). To tighten that up you n...
Yeah the level of dampening is unreal. The prototype wasn't completely isolated/dead though. I remarked that it felt 'crisp'... as there was some fe...
Given the other boards that you have, that’s probably a good way to lean. You’re about my size, but with bigger feet for leverage. I thought the tor...
Yeah I want the titanal dampening and more of a freecarver vs BX/race... and after riding it, I just want it. My Freecarver 6000 is 277mm underfoot ...
@iacopo If you narrow the width (using the same core construction), it’s going to increase the flex (longitudinal and torsional). Personally, I would...
@parkcityguy with the shovel limited to 34cm, I’m guessing you’d be looking at a custom build with a larger SCR (16m?) to get a 30 waist.
Or maybe I’d take the medium without EGS? 😂 (I probably wouldn’t muck with the width)
Just to give people another perspective... I’m 172cm, 165lbs, size 8 boot (though my mondo is actually only 255; outer boot length is 287). I’d say I...
Here's a really good article that was recently reformatted...
These are really cool. I think (big disclaimer here!) that James has his hips a bit more forward, initiating the turn with more of a lateral-obliqu...
