View Full Version : Osin (Dynastar) 3800 163

I left 4807 and a freeride board alone in a closed, what poped out was this bastard child :D
Super sweet powder/carver board, kind of Dynastars' Fish, but stiffer and less tapered. Carves similar to 4807. I ride my 169 with hard boots. Very good in trees.
Waist 25.2, SCR 9, Taper 4.
It looks just like 169 (next to 4807) on pic attached.
169 has 9.5 SCR.
Sell or trade.

This is a blast to ride. A great freeride board with an incling toward softer conditions...but still holds a rail.

I owe it to you Boris, great board, worked like a charm in the Whistler pow-pow, I've never had a free-ride board of this length with so much float. Any like I said, it can hold a rail and is manueverable in trees.
Someone BUY this board! The topsheet changes color too (green fades to blue).

the rider's weight range for this board?
Would you rate this board as stiff?
thanks!

I do not know manufacturers weight rating.
It's just a bit softer than 4807 178, stiffer then your average fs board, and stiffer than Fish.

Gord, any advice on the flex?

I'm 210 lbs and definately ride hard. Althought he nose is softer, the tail does have some pop. It rides like a solid free-ride board (similar to older salomons).
I got mine from Boris aswell and it was a perfect tansfer on his end. I say givr
Hope this helps.

I'm 168 and ride mellow some days, and harder when it's good. It's probably stiffer than I'd like. I've gotten wary of buying boards that bigger riders love - I end up hating them just b/c I have to go full-out to get the board de-cambered.
Thanks Boris and Gord.

I don't know man... I am 174 lb and ride the 169 version (a bit stiffer) of it, and can kick the $hit out of it. This is with hard boots, never tried it with softies.

BlueBee,
What have you done so far with your 3800? Trees, bumps, grommers, etc?
I haven't unwrapped my new 3800 yet, as Tahoe doesn't have enough snow. Groomers are the only game in town, so far this season :1luvu:

I'm riding it with a set of Burton Drivers and TechNine Pro model bindings, so not as stiff as hardboots, so I guess the question is what would you be riding the board with soft vs hard will definately change the feel.
Huge, I've had this board everywhere, waist deep pow, groomers, trees and bumps, and a bit of ice...like I said earlier, one of the better freeride boards I've ever ridden (compared to Burton Republik, older salamons, Oxygen SX, O2 freeride).
I don't feel tired riding this board, it's quite relaxing, but when you do push the tail, it pushes you back, and I think that's an indicator of a fun ride.

Hugh,
169 has very similar flex and ride to 4807, just a bit turnier and livelier. I would say even more versatile.
I didn't ride it much (to many boards to choose from ;) ) but I had it in bumps, trees, soft groom and tracked pow. It's about the only board I'm close to comfortable in trees (I'm poor tree rider). Very good in pow and chop but bouncier than 4807, easy in bumps, carves ok.
I still have to try it on hard pack. Pending that test, it could prove to be the most versatile of my boards...
Gord,
I'm glad you love it! For softies I would probably choose 163 too.

One of the local instructors took a 163. He loves it :)
I couldn't convince him to go for 169 (quite a big dude)... I guess 163 is already considered a big board in softbooting world.

Super sweet powder/carver board,
I am in total agreement. This is now, my 2nd favorite board (next to my Madd 170!) Took it all over Big Sky in wet and dry powder; maybe 6-10 inches in places. It is a dream in the pow, carves pretty well in the harder stuff. Will admit, I felt more comfortable on my Madd at the TOP of the hill, due to the pitch. I know I should have tried it in hard boots, but with fresh powder all over the place, I just couldn't!!!! I bought the 163 from you and am approx 140 pounds. (on a bad day) :cool: Hope this helps whom ever is thinking about this fun board!
Okay, so I would rather ride this board than the Madd in any fresh pow over 6 inches...... Oh yea, skims water well, too!
Thanks so much for the board! Can not wait to try a swallow tail, one of these days!!

The "Legend" board was surely bought off Ebay last season. Looks like DrD scooped it up. I was watching it but snoozed and forgot...missed out. Kinda glad though because DrD and I would have just been in a bid war.
I've been searching for one ever since and haven't found any. Definately rare/hard to find.
They are hard to find because most searching for "Dynastar & Legend" will return back their ski lineups. It's hard to wade through all the ski crapola to find the info on the snowboard.
I believe there was a short thread on it at the EC site. There was also a thread about it here on BOL if I remember correctly.
So DrD how does it ride? Any comparisons to the 4807/3800 series? Does the split tail really do anything noticable? What function does the rubberish looking stuff around the inserts serve? Dampening? Protection?

I bought this one off of a close out website a couple weeks ago. Stole it actually:eplus2: there was one on the bay at the time but it looked like the selleer was shill bidding it. I went looking on the net and found this one. the seller on ebay relisted and sold his for considerably more again by shill bidding. I do a search every now and again looking for them.
they made a whole series of boards called autodrives that include the dampening pads and the thickened core edges. to answer the other post they don't make snowboards anymore:(
The rubber pads stick up 1mm or so and provide the same service that the bomber suspension kit provides, dampening and or a softer ride.
I rode my buddies last season (he has two) and found it to be a fantastic powder board and all around fun machine. the split softens up the tail.
other interesting features include half cap construction and half sidewall consstruction. see pic sidewall in the middle and cap on the ends

I got my 3800 on friday, it looks looks great! I can't wait to get out and ride it.
Anyone have advice on stance set up? I was thinking all the way back for the powder, but that might sacrifice carveability.
shrederjen
November 30th, 2008, 06:08 PM
Rode my 3800 today. 15 inches new snow at A-Basin!
Hopefully, tomorrow, they will reopen the top....
I ride mine with TD2s. The front binder all the way back and the rear binder a little bit forward to keep the stance from being too wide.
Great board for pow!!

Back from the inserts centre is good for carving too, especially if you tend to carve it as an alpine board. It has soft nose and stif tail. Jen's got the right idea. I'm set that way on 169 and softies.

December 1st, 2008, 09:12 AM

my experience is that they carve better with set back stance. you'll load the nose to much otherwise.:biggthump
