OKAY PEOPLE! If there are any of these left this year, grab them! FOR GOD'S SAKE GRAB THEM!I have been riding since the days of Sorell boots and Look neon green boards (with that wierd nose....) and have been on many boards, and this is finaly the best. I ride the whole mnt. Used to ride the parks, but now get more thrills from steep tree runs and drops, and this board made the transition easy. It's kinda soft, at least it feels that way when your cruzin in the powder, but when you take it on granular, sub light speeds, you would swear it stiffens up Viagra style and holds it's own with srioulsy minimal wobble. The effective edge is almost the whole board lenght (147) and you can feel that for sure. This board makes getting to the base lodge fun. And the best part about this board is the absoulute punishment it can take. The edges are cut like teeth and wrap around the front and back, so if you slam that spot where the edge meets the board, you wont trash your season. In fact, I have slammed many rocks and trees last year (helmets rule) and my board came out fine. I have been riding the lib-techs now for 3 years and I find I get at least 2 seasons from each board, and thats really beating the crap out of them. (did I mention they are super duper lite? great for knee surgery people like me) So ride on, and if your thinking about finding a used board, or a last season board, Im telling you, this one is fan-fan-fantastic. -Poyla
