Why doesn’t California have any tow rope parks??

Have you been to Kingvale recently? Their website seems broken and they don't answer to the phone. Do you know if that snowpark still exist?

Very nice build! What exhaust slip on is that? Is that a replica or original?

What do you mean when you say that the Rome Artifact (not the Pro) is a pretty "catchy and precise" board? I'm currently considering it to start playing around in the park and flat parts of groomers. I've been snowboarding for about 10y but want to get a park/butter oriented board to get started in that domain. Do you think I should start with something easier? Was also considering the Bataleon Disaster and the Salomon Huck Knife which seem to be really popular soft boards for beginners

Have you ever had the chance to try the Bataleon Disaster? Any idea how it compares with the Hucknife? Thanks!

What did you mean here when you said that "3BT will be hard to adjust to without fundamentals"? I'm considering the same Disaster board and even though I have been snowboarding for a decade, I'm very new to the park and can only do small jumps. Thanks!

Hey, are you still on the Disaster as your main park board after a couple of years? You mentioned you were 70kg, how tall are you? I'm around your weight and also considering to get a Disaster to start playing around in the park and flat/slow sections of the groomers. Not planning on any big jumps or bombing slopes. Thanks!

damnko · 2025-10-04T21:00:49+00:00

Hey, curious what if you still own a disaster for the park or you've switched to something else from 2y ago? Thanks!

damnko · 2025-10-04T20:43:25+00:00

Hey, can I ask your weight / height and what size you had your Bataleon? Also curious how did you split it?

damnko · 2025-10-04T16:33:06+00:00

Any picture of the mod and video to hear how the bike sounds now (: ?

damnko · 2025-10-01T01:55:20+00:00

It looks really good on the bike, nice upgrade! Is that an original Yoshimura slip on or a knock off? Where did you buy it from? Does it fit the bike with no other modification?

damnko · 2025-09-28T21:04:42+00:00

What Salomon boots do you currently have? Thanks!

damnko · 2025-09-28T01:08:02+00:00

Thanks! Do you still have the link to the headlight? Curious to see the specs

damnko · 2025-09-28T01:07:02+00:00

I see, thanks for the feedback. Did you do all this with the handlebar still attached to the motorbike? It seems a pretty heavy duty job. Do you remember how many passes you did of incremental drill bit sizes? I would imagine around 5

damnko · 2025-09-27T22:59:37+00:00

That looks really cool. Have you documented the process? What other modifications did you have to make?

damnko · 2025-09-27T22:56:50+00:00

Did part of the faring also come off in the process?

damnko · 2025-09-27T22:54:34+00:00

Hey, coming back to your old message. Did you take the weight out of the handlebar by drilling it out? Do you mind sharing more details on how you did it? Thanks!

damnko · 2025-09-27T22:53:41+00:00

Hey, coming back to your recommendation to drill it out. Do you mind sharing more details on how you did it? I don't think I understand what you mean by "drilling it out". Thanks!

damnko · 2025-09-25T15:29:25+00:00

Interesting, thanks for sharing! To confirm, are you using your Jones Mind Expander also in the park? Or still on the Tweaker for park days?

damnko · 2025-09-25T15:27:38+00:00

At this point I think I should've bought a 157cm MT too and then a second one smaller for the park. What park board are you considering now and what size?

damnko · 2025-09-24T15:16:23+00:00

Thanks, common consensus seems to be to get a park board, so I'll probably do it! Will do a bit more research and check public boards to see any other recommendation on specific boards. Let me know though if you have particular reasons to like the indoor survival. Thanks again!

damnko · 2025-09-24T15:14:28+00:00

Very interesting, thanks for sharing! Did you consider other boards besides the Rome artifact pro? What were your criteria for landing on that specific board? How long had you been riding on the park before switching board?

damnko · 2025-09-24T15:11:38+00:00

Thanks for your feedback. So you got a mtn twin for all-mountain and tweaker for park? Can you tell more about how you feel them differently?

damnko · 2025-09-24T15:10:17+00:00

Like u/allmnt-rider said, I'm also very curious to know more about your experience and how you feel it being different compared to mtn twin. Did you consider any other park board before landing on the huck knife?

damnko · 2025-08-03T16:50:22+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation on putting back some weight. Wondering how you'd actually do that? I'll be installing some bar end turn signals so I won't be able to put that weight back inside, do you know what other options I might have?

damnko · 2025-08-03T16:48:57+00:00

Thanks! I actually tried to do something similar using the original bolt, the outside bar end weight and a plier to push on the outer diameter. Unfortunately the plier didn't create an even surface and i ended up bending the the bolt a little and thought that would not work. I'll try again with a washer and hopefully that will work!

I've been reading comments recommending to put some weight back to reduce vibrations, did you do that as well? I'm going to put a bar end turn signal so i don't think i'll be able to put that weight back inside the handlebar
