I'm 160lb / 11 boots / higher intermediate rider Hello guys! I'm new to the forum and I need some help choosing a new board. I already have a twin board with the Yes The Greats for the spring slushy days and I'm looking to expand my quiver with a more carving and pow slaying board. I don't do any park but I love carving and finding pow pockets and side hits. I'd love a board that's not too demanding and that loves hooky circle carves like my Yes Greats. For now these are the boards that... Looking for a resort ripping pow muncher

Just picked up this beast. Early release for 2027. Looks like it will be an absolute charger. Looking forward to let it loose next week in Japan.

Hello! I have the 156W Burton hometown hero 2023/2024 with the bright blue bottom! This is my stiffer all mountain ride that I have for powder as well. I am looking for another board to contrast this ride. Once again a all mountain style with a soft flex for butters, ground tricks, and flex through some tight paths. Doesn't need to be considered an all mountain ride but wanted to see what you guys recommend! Please let me know what you think!

Given the Aus season is yet to fire a shot and the unlikely opportunity I'll be getting down to any local resorts, I've been pricing Japan for 2027 and getting close to booking. Just the wife and I, so probably only 6-days on the snow and 4-days kicking back in Sapporo on the way out. Will be late January into February, we want to check out the ice festival and do a few tourist things around Sapporo. @Craig64 probably going to Furano and booking the Arthouse Apartment...

Finally got my new Alternator in my hands, and had a couple questions regarding stance Fist off, 21in ref stance on a 162?!? Thats really narrow, right? I am about 6'3" and Ive always thought that my 22.5in stance was narrow for my size. Ive seen longo set his aeronaut up with the back foot all the way forward, and the front foot just wherever it needs to be to make sense. Is that a bad idea for the alternator? Id like to have as much tail as I reasonably can. On one hand, it could be weird... Nitro Alternator Stance

After my experience last season with the Dark Horse, and how slow the extruded base was in the slush, it got me wondering about the pros that seem to all ride it. Theres no way theyre riding the same dark horse that I had, right? Ive been wanting to try some of the spring break boards, but they all seem to have extruded bases, and I found out last season, that that is a deal breaker for me at my local mountain. All these Capita team riders surely have sintered bases on their signature... Extruded Bases

Ok flow aficionados, I’m thinking about picking up a pair of nx2s after the season unless I find a smoking deal earlier. I had the original flows and liked the concept but never clicked with them due to poor fit and response and quickly moved on. I have a few questions I’m hoping you can help out with, I’m a size 8 boot and have k2 thraxis. From the size chart I’m at the medium max or large minimum. Any thoughts on sizing or if being on the cusp I’m just not going to get a good fit either... Flow nx2 advice needed
