Like new. I've ridden it 4 times. Just too many boards in the quiver. I think it's a 2005/2006 model. It's the one with the textured top sheep. Asking for $250.00 plus shipping.

Specs are as follows:

Length: 168 cm
Effective: 149.5 cm
Side cut: 10.9 cm
Nose: 24.3 cm
Waist: 19.0 cm
Tail: 23.8 cm

Hmmm, I've been looking for this kind of big-slalom board. Do you (or anyone else) have any opinions on how this board rides? I'm talking east-coast type riding, too. :D

Also, any idea on construction? I assume it's not titanal right?

Thanks,
greg

I don't believe it has titanal construction. I ride primarily in the Lake Tahoe area, so I don't run into much ice. On really firm days, it hooks up nicely. Everything I read about it on Bomber, indicates that it's a great ice board.

What can you tell me about the flex/stiffness of this board?

And, how much for shipping to 84015?

I have a 168 renn tiger, and it is titanium construction, I primarily ride at stratton currently, and i've found the board is fine for these kind of trails. It is on the softer side i think, I weigh about 180. It carves well as long as you don't push it too hard, and i also found that it likes to ride a little more wieght on the tail, if i leaned alittle too far on the nose it would start to lose an edge. over all it's a good board, but in the end it's no coiler (in my opinion)!

I had a similar RT I was on last year. It hooked up nicely in the rough stuff and the sheets of boilerplate it was "OK". They are "snappy" boards and if you are not steady with your pressure, they can hook up super good and really suprise you when you are not expecting it and throw you hard to the ground, or make you feel about 5 inches shorter as the G-forces kick in.

I'm definitely in the market and am interested in this board....could you email me at krkoehler@hotmail.com? I'd like to pick up a board asap.

Also, anyone else out there, I'm also looking for some plates and size 28 boots if you have any.

Thanks,

Bob

I've let Tae know, but I've been forced to back out due to suddenly having to buy a new laptop to replace the one that stopped working yesterday. :angryfire

Good luck everyone; it looks like a fine board!
