Has anyone ridden one of the bigger Apo freeride boards?

Models Apocalypse 166, 174, Family 162 and all of Source models have radiuses over 10.5m and up to 11.5m! Judging by my A200SWT (the only board I can not get to bend) they should be uber stiff too. Sounds very hardbootable / carvable.

My first board was very similar to the Apocalypse 186. Stiff swallowtail. Except we wore Sorel Snowbears with ski boot liners shoved in them and had little flimsy plastic "bindings" to hold our feet to the board. It was an amazing powder weapon, but not much fun with that boot/binding setup on the piste. It would rock with hard boots in the powder, especially open powder bowls or big BC runs.

if they would make a new pharoah 203 I'd be all over it
