Coiler PR 173 SB

[shawndoggy]

SOLD TO THE MAN FROM ONTARIO... (Soup Nazi Voice): NO MORE MOVIES FOR YOU!

Purchased this board from Furi (http://www.bomberonline.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=24663&highlight=coiler) a couple of weeks ago. His description:


Coiler PR 173
18cm waist
13M sidecut
5.8 stiffness on Bruce PR scale

Has just about every goodie upgrade you can get on a Bruce board:
http://www.coiler.com/tech.htm
SB - Super Board construction
WCC - World Cup Customer construction (included with SB)
T+L - Torsion plus Lamination


The board would be best for someone around 150LB to 170LB ish.I've been avoiding getting on the scale this year, but I suspect I'm exceeding the weight limits for this board, at least in the softer snow we have out west. On a super firm or icy day it might work for me, but we don't have too many of those. I've mounted bindings and taken a handful of runs since these pics were taken, but rest assured that the board looks like it does in these pics.

I'm passing it along for what I paid -- $300 in person, or as Furi had asked, $325 shipped in the lower 48.

Bump for a fast little board!

[shawndoggy]

Bumping again.

For NorCal/Nevada locals and Tahoe tourists, I'll be up at Mt. Rose (Tahoe) the next two weekends at least and if you want to ride before you buy, that's cool with me.

Took the board up today for a second evaluation after riding it in the very soft snow at OES. This board rails on the hard pack and has a lot of energy in the tail. A fun ride from the gunslinger stance. Don't let the 13M side cut radius scare you... it's not hard to get this little rocket to come around very quickly when you need to.

[shawndoggy]

Nervous about whether this board will rail on the firm? Don't be! Today's conditions were hard and windscoured. Enough so that the cord all blew away. I put my helmet cam on the front of the coiler so y'all could see it in action. As much as this board will not ride powder, it only gets better the firmer the snow gets.

Ok, sorry to jack this thread, but that vid was awesome! What camera do you have and how did you attach it to the board. Great POV of you and the board doing your thing!

LOL, I don't know anything about those boards!

Bruce will make you whatever your heart desires at a very reasonable price. New is not a bad option.

Yep, everyone needs a Coiler!! I already got one though. And my eye is on a new one for next season!

James,

Are you buying another board?
Is this one for you or Thomas?
Mansfield barely has another weekend worth of snow.
You'll never get the Coiler in time.
