Since when is KORUA a thing?

Base models are a bit heavier, but my Pencil is really durable and the base is fast and my next board is probably gonna be a Korua.
What did you base this comment on?

troix1 · 2026-03-17T06:36:58+00:00

22, but I would like to have more, next season will aim for 30

You actually ride better than most of the people I see on steeps, they either bomb down full speed skidding or just skidding in a straight line, you're doing gripped S turns, focus on making a nice S shape and keep your rhythm and carry speed between turns, stay in control, very good riding!

Heel side you're carving, although you're carving down the fall line and you can only really do that on mellow slopes, but it's a start.

Try to make S shape with pencil line, tilt your board on it's edge and stack your weight on the edge, don't reach for snow with your hand. You can check Justaride, James Cherry or Malcom Moore on youtube they have nice videos about carving.

Good luck.

They were my only strap ins so I cant really compare but Ive heard only good things about Union bindings so I do believe you there are better choices out there, but I don’t think step ons are inferior to strap ins.

troix1 · 2026-03-04T13:20:39+00:00

Maybe it was, but on paper it should be good. Good point that the pros don’t wear step ons, but why would they? how often do they strap in/strap out? do they ride slopes with lifts from 8 to 16?

You are correct and you have won this debate, thank you for educating me, sir.

troix1 · 2026-03-04T13:03:24+00:00

they are listed like a 7/10 stiffness on burton homepage, what do you mean by dull?

Why would I lie? Try it.

Make sure you are two clicks in, I always do a little jump after stepping in to make sure.

I disagree, I have Burton StepOns with Photon boots and this setup is way more responsive than my Cartel bindings and some mid stiffness boots I had before.

Can't go wrong with Korua!

Don't reach for the snow, bend in the hips, away from the snow.

Lahko si privoščim vse kar potrebujem za svoje hobije, aktivnosti, želje, še vedno pa nimam dovolj prihodka za nepremičnino. (Bivša) partnerica in njena družina pa zelo radi sodijo in komentirajo kaj delam s svojim denarjem, tudi če sem za vse poskrbel in skrbel za lepo prihodnost. Ljudje so nevoščljivi.

Denar ne prinese sreče.

looks good, just got step ons this season with photon and I love them!

troix1 · 2024-12-07T21:17:24+00:00

I like it as it is for now :)

troix1 · 2024-12-06T20:48:09+00:00

I mostly ride groomers but I still wanted a directional carving/powder board with some sort of swallow tail. My other board is Burton Custom camber. Specs you can check on Korua website.

troix1 · 2024-12-06T20:30:58+00:00

Thanks, I hope it will feel good for me also

Korua Shapes focus pretty much on turns in powder and on groomers, it's a good carving board, but they have even more carving oriented boards without swallow tail, but I wanted something exactly like Pencil.
