K2 After Black – It’s a wide version of the Zeppelin, Darkstar or something like that. Easy as hell to ride but just never made me stoked. I got no complaints on this thing but it just didn’t make my pee pee move around while on it, like the WWW did.
Arbor Element – Another one of those sticks the Milo boys were raving about. They got a wide version of this too, which I should of ridden but I didn’t. Like the kids said, the Element is what a fuck buddies supposed to be: Easy to ride, predictable, playful and good looking. Looking down at the Koa top sheet I started to feel like I needed to save the planet or a whale or something. So I went in and bought a Snickers bar and gave it to a hungry fat kid.
GNU Carbon Beam with Magna - Now I know I’ve run the magna thing thru the mud, especially that Avocado Skate thing their doing, but the Carbon Beams pretty dope. Rode a 61 W and it was an ass kicker. Yea I could feel them stupid wavy edges digging into the hard pack and no it didn’t make an inkling of difference in my shredding ability. I sucked when I jumped on the Carbon Beam and sucked just as bad when I got off.
Makboard – check out this thing. Bob and Bob (cousins) have lived in Squaw for the last 30 years or so. They build houses, surf and snowboard. Bob had an idea 10 years ago to build a better mouse trap. The picture above is it. Basically this is a snowboard hand shaped out of polycarbonate with some inserts thrown in. It has a channel down the middle and these two rocket holes in the back that suck the ass of the board down in pow so it floats really good. Totally recyclable too. You break it, you can get it reground and built back into a board. I peeped these dudes off the lift, went over and ended up spending a ½ hour with them. Cool as hell in that quirky inventor type of way. Bob hands me his board and says, “Ride it.” It was a 160 or so, and rode like a 180. Huge contact length and the jet holes were wicked. Shit flying everywhere out the back. They could use some help on the shape and geometry but for the most part, it rode like a snowboard. These dudes just make em for themselves but some day Yvon Chinard from Patagonia is gonna get a hold of them and try to revolutionize the snowboard market with this eco friendly recyclable deal.

Think of all 360 degree sticker placement options with a clear snowstick. And if hot chicks would snowboard pantiless wearing skirts you could see everything from underneath. Fuck yah!
ReplyDeleteShit, we need to then throw a mirror down for a stomp pad if the chicks are going pantyless. It would be a bearded clam stomp pad!
ReplyDeletewow. avocado banana.... hhahaha...
ReplyDeletethat makboard thing is crazy. can i mount rocket boosters in those holes?
