This is my 8th season riding. Ive got an Option Supercharger. Burton custom bindings (getting Tech Nines soon) and burton boots. I mostly ride back country steep powdery lines and trees. Im into big drops and tight lines and stuff. none of that park riding. i can't spin. :o

i know how you feel, this is my third or fourth year on a acctuall board (morrow radium wide w/burton fs bindings and airwalk boots) and its also my first year spinning. i sucked at it until i just said screw it and started spinning and didnt care if the 100ppl in the board park saw me. now i can spin 3's off the tinniest things and im working on doing them while getting alot of air which is pretty hard.

not one serious injury, but a combination of little injuries EVERY WEEKEND. it was soo icy that every time i wiped out, i sprained or bruised something...to avoid getting injured seriously, im out for the season-too icy and conditions are harsh

im sure youve heard of trollhaugen then havnt you? and fobia? they designed our park and built the jumps. even though most of us put the rails in and the boxes...ect. we all know how to build jumps really good and were there like everyday. last thing we put in was a diamond box.

ive been boarding for 7 years now...

ive owed about 8 or ten decks but my current ride is a Forum JP Walker with Drake Limited Edition bindings w/ adjustable stiffness, and DC phantom boots (air pump) this is a $1,000 setup. My backup board is my old Forum destoyer with Drake F-60 bindings. I also got a hole RIDE Jeff Brushy laying around that i use to hit up the local hills. Im pretty good but not pro... me and my friends have been working on a video latly.

I do everything ll i started to ski then i maxed out at all the local lessons and i raced for a year or 2 then i switched over to boarding were i did that for like 4 years. (i learned form the best lol my instructor went semi pro untill he landed on his head doing a flip and broke his neck) but after snowboarding i ski blade now and still snowboard but i never have any time to ski anymore lol i usually try to go once a year at least. I have a mistral board with burton bindings and heelside boats lol its all outdated but it hauls my fat arse around good lol

i have to agree. forum are not the greatest out there. they are weak. Im probably gonna get a rosignal board next. my room mate from lake louise is a killer rider he has broken pretty much ever kind of board except a rossi. i also ski as well. i have rossi pow airs which are twin tip and have grind plates.

Been boarding going on 12 years now. Ride a Killer Loop board/bindings w/ airwalk boots. Love it and hope it lasts cause they don't make'm any more to my knowledge. I ride back country, the steeper and deeper the better. Natural hits, rainbows and stumps rule. Terrain park is too full of beginners slow'n it up, so I goes where they's can't.:D
