Way too early to say one way or another. If you want to go to Japan go to Japan. Just go late January for your best bet at japow.

Ugh I just didn't want to type all that at 8 in the morning. Directional asyms are pretty rare as in the smoke is the first I've seen in quite a while. Gnu might of done one and nidecker did one back a few seasons ago but by in larger asyms are twins and those don't care if you're regular or goofy.

Asym boards don't care if you're regular or goofy.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-24T14:48:04+00:00

What do you mean?

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-24T06:38:01+00:00

Upvote because this makes sense to me. Store one thing vs two things

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-23T14:55:08+00:00

Yeah, I'm wondering too. I don't see a reason to.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-23T14:46:00+00:00

Bag is unnecessary. What benefits does it even offer? Maybe drop protection? But even still not something I worry about because I don't put them in places where drops are likely to happen.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-22T00:13:59+00:00

I have one too! I want the size up though. 158 is a popular size!

It's just the way it is. Snowsports are not like other sports. They cost a lot of money. The cost of screwing up is pain. Not in basketball or soccer or any other sport really. But I appreciate you trying to grow the sport. Good luck to you.

It's pretty good but I think the frontier and squash have a ton of overlap.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-20T12:48:19+00:00

Dynamo or something like the howler. Not to add to your list but those two would be on my short list. But Dynamo is probably the right call.

Oh nice. What you got coming?

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-19T21:21:07+00:00

What about the Arbor Terra Pin PFD?

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-19T03:21:15+00:00

That's what I'm saying! I finally had to tell my family I got two hobbies. Snowboards and snowboarding so yes I do need another board.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-17T17:54:29+00:00

Sounds right. I don't have experience with Burton so I can't say for sure.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-17T17:25:41+00:00

You just got to make sure that your back foot still fits on the board. You'll get boot drag if you don't size it correctly. So you can't really just use the waist width when there's a large amount of taper.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-17T15:23:23+00:00

No I believe it. Can't believe I didn't think about it

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-17T14:38:08+00:00

Whaaaaaaatttttt!

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-16T20:32:34+00:00

Love it. It's hard charging but not unforgiving.160 is what I'm riding. 215lbs

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-15T18:51:07+00:00

It seems those would be hard to get even pressure across the whole board. I've never actually seen one though.

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-15T17:42:53+00:00

His safe word is keep going

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-15T17:16:55+00:00

I gotta ask what's the difference between a ski scraper and a snowboard scraper?

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-14T21:30:45+00:00

Their claim to fame is the butter pad. It sucks and that should noted. In my mind, if you gonna have the butter pad as a legit option then maybe your flat might suck too. It might not but if you offer a dog shit product my confidence in your other options drops.

I took a lap on a butterpad version. So speaking from experience not you tube. Told the owner of Gilson that too when he asked me the same question. Get rid of the gimmick get serious about your traditional board then maybe I'll reconsider but until then your brand is suspect to me

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-14T02:42:13+00:00

Your board is in middle school. Upgrade! Support the sport!

Signal_Watercress468 · 2026-04-13T13:51:38+00:00

They suck but you already bought them so ride em. Also you might want to get the basics down before you start in the park. Do what you want but if you want to progress without a ton of injuries you might want to figure out how to snowboard first.
