what are the top snowboards on the market with the greatest flex?

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Im looking for a snowboard with a crazy amount of flex, im currently looking at the k2 www rocker but i dont know if it has good flex or not.

What is a good snowboard with crazy flex? meant for steet riding?
is the k2 www rocker more flexible than the k2 www?

Didnt you just have a post about this?

Rome Artifact , Rome Artifact 1985, Ride kink, K2 www are some of the softest boards you can get.

WWW or WWW rocker are almost identical except ones a rocker. And it would be easier to butter cause uhhh its a rocker.

Is the Burton Dominant Slick really going to be that much different from the regular model?

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

I have the chance to get a Burton dominant board for very cheap, but its the non slick model. Im going to be spending all of my time in the terrain park jibbing, will the non slick model be that much noticeably different than the slick model?

Well, so far no one seems to have a clue what the are talking about. The difference between the Slick version and the regular version is the edges. Basically, the Slick doesn’t have them.

Actually, it does but they have been tucked back about 2 or 3 inches on the base of the board. This will make jibbing a little easier as you will have a much less chance of hanging up on the rails. If you want a board purely for jibbing and you won’t mind that you won’t be able to turn, the slick is fine. However, edges work really well, even when they are dull. All the best jibbers in the world use boards with regular edges, they just detune (dull) the heck out of them. This makes a board that can jib really well and still be able to hold an edge while turning (it won’t turn great but much better than a slick).

I’d say, if you can get it for a great price…go for the regular model and take it to a shop for them to bevel and detune. You’ll be stoked.

Where can I find a longer length of snowboarding pants for women?

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

looking for 34" pant inseam, without having to pick a size large because I am only a size 4.

Can anyone recommend any websites or stores that suit my needs?

I’m not sure of the inseam, but Ive found that Bonfire pants were pretty long…and I’m about the same size (3-5)

I have a medium in the particle pants. They fit really nice in the waist/butt area and baggy in the legs, however a little snug if you wear any kind of pants that aren’t thin underneath.

Is zumiez a good place to buy a skateboard?

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

i keep reading that its not. I read that the people dont really know how to answer questions about what kind of things you will need. But thats no problem for me. My boyfriend skates so he knows what i need. Also, im just learning, so if the quality isnt that good, i dont think it will be a problem for me since i wont be doing any tricks yet.

So is it a good place for me to go?

its not the best because the stuff is over priced but if theres a skateshop by ur house then use that store cause stuff is cheaper. also active and boarders are good skateshops. boards at Zumiez 60 active and borders around 45.

Those racks that go on top of your car that hold skis and snowboards, how much do they cost?

Those racks that go on top of your car that hold skis and Snowboards, how much do they cost?

Ballpark cost for a full rack (meaning you have no factory roof racks at all) will run you about $350 to start. The Foot Packs are about $140, the Fit Kits start around $50, Load Bars are about $50, and the basic 4-ski rack is $110. (all parts Thule.) If you have a factory rack all you need is the ski rack and the Thule Fat Mouth clamps. I think they are about $50, so rack & clamps will run you about $160 new.

Cargo boxes range in prices depending on the material and the size.

You can pick the stuff up at a discount if to are a Ski Patroller or Instructor. Also if you work for a gear store you can get Thule and Yakima on pro-deal. Both ways save you boucoup bucks!
