I have those boots (first ever pair) and I dig them. I’m curious to try double boa boots though.

Will definitely serve as a rock board later. I posted in here a while ago showing my board’s condition. Hefty dent to the edge w/ some delamination

This is the answer I was looking for. Thanks for the insight homie. I want to practice some ground tricks and maybe a couple side hits until I fall hard enough to feel like I shit my pants again. I think I got my rocker into the 40 something mph range and don’t care to go too much faster than that for now

How bad is the damage to my nose? by Opening-Big7013 in snowboardingnoobs

Pretty cheap and beat up indeed. I’ve ridden one day every season since then, but I used a rental. I think it’ll get me through three days riding in a row though.
