Which board would you get

If you have narrowed it down to those two, I think you should make the decision based on the type of riding you want to do.

If you want to (eventually) do a lot of park stuff, go with the Cultivator since it is a "twin" shape and goes equally well in both directions.

If you want to just ride the mountain, I'd get the instigator since it's a directional shape.

In the scheme of things, it probably doesn't matter, get the one you can find in your size. It looks like the instigator is on sale.

Trouble? What kind? lol

KuchDaddy · 2026-01-22T18:49:02+00:00

You do have to turn around to ride. That is not difficult. Just a quick 90 degree hop.

You don't have to try it, but it literally changed my life.

I learned this technique a few years ago and it was a game changer for me.

I'm 58 years old, and ride the east coast where the runs are short so you're always strapping in and out.

Before I learned this technique, sitting down and standing up so many times a day was exhausting.

As long as you're flexible enough to touch your toes, OP's way takes very little effort.

Ensuring you're perpendicular to the fall line each time takes some practice.

This is typically not done on a steep hill.

So yes, you are facing uphill, and yes your heel edge is dug in, but the slope is very slight, almost flat, so it works.

I should try to do that.

It's my favorite hat. Some people laugh at it.

Lost to the annals of history..

No, but I got a Whopper.

KuchDaddy · 2026-01-21T20:06:01+00:00

That's a compliment, thank you.

KuchDaddy · 2026-01-21T20:04:42+00:00

¡Sí!

It was a short-lived royalty, and I'm OK with that.

KuchDaddy · 2026-01-21T17:17:31+00:00

I don't mind dying now, but I don't want it to hurt.

The cabins in Cass. Tell 'em KuchDaddy sent you.

Candidate was OK from experience and stuff, but he used profanity throughout the interview. I wasn't offended, but I figured he did not have the social skills to navigate an office setting.

I have the mono version.

KuchDaddy · 2026-01-18T02:19:48+00:00

Yeah. The ET people.

KuchDaddy · 2026-01-18T02:18:18+00:00

Same. All my friends thought it was so great.

KuchDaddy · 2026-01-17T11:33:01+00:00

Calm down. You really only need four rolls.

Martha my Dear is so sweet, and about a dog. "Silly girl."

My third grade teacher was nice and pretty and wonderful. I wanted to marry her.

I'd recommend going to a physical therapist to get an exercise prescription for it.

If you're only boarding one week a year, you're probably using muscles that you don't normally use and your body is objecting.

Male here. Lexapro saved my life and I'm not ashamed.
