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.

@carverarcalis My first point wasn’t really about chatter, but intentionally speed checking with each turn. I had always thought it was ‘proper’ to i...
@riotsupercarver That’s a really great video. I wish all skiers would actually follow that logic. It’s so odd that when the skiers started teaching s...
