Hopefully they are back for good...would really love to get a new Tom Burt and compare it to a new Tanker 172.

I've got "the big feet" (mondo 31.5) and am always looking for a wide board. Intrigued by Elan's El Grande with it's 28+ cm waist (171 length). Question is, what is the widest waist of any Tanker? Sorry to digress on your post so quickly.

No problem to digress...I am a tanker fanatic so here are the dimensions of the wide models.

3 Nose Width 325 325 325
4 Waist Width 275 272 268
5 Tail Width 310 310 310
6 Insert System 5x2+2 5x2+2 5x2+2
7 Insert Setback 30 40 50
8 Optimal Stance 540 550 560
9 Sidecut Radius 10.25m 10.75m 11.5m

anything TB puts his name on, I'd love to ride. Still have my Avalanche TB 166, it's worked but still a great all around board

Anyone have a picture of this animal? I remember seeing one of these for sale new several years ago, it was a fairly narrow board and it was definately over 170 in length. I wish now that I had purchased it, it was a closeout when the factory had a sale going up in Bellingham about 1999/2000.
