do have titanal and they are Kessler shapes

DESCRIPTION:
Titanium-powered and carbon-fiber energized accelerations in our exclusive FLF shape will hold an edge on anything and it's unreal in powder. Titanium and carbon work in combination like a bow - the more energy in, the more energy out. The legendary Palmer woodcore with Nomex(TM) Honeycomb in tip and tail delivers the lowest swing weight with exceptional response in the cap-sidewall construction. New lacquered top plus 3D metal logo give it that high-end sports car look.
RIDER:
Incredibly fun for an experienced freerider - very fast and powerful, yet smooth and easy - handling ride.

Dynamic Power Distribution [FLF] by Kessler. Another first from Palmer.
For more than 10 years, Palmer has led the industry in the evolution of snowboard design. The company created such firsts as Titanium inlays, Honeycomb Core constructions, Klothoid sidecuts, 3D woodcores, the Power Link System, Cap Sidewall and Prepreg constructions. For 2008/2009, Palmer, in another collaboration with Hansjürg Kessler, takes snowboard design one step further and brings an unprecedented shape innovation to the market that makes riding faster and more powerful, and yet safer, more predictable and less tiring.

From Boards to Skis.
This revolutionary shape design has been incorporated not only into our snowboards, but also into our newest skis.

Check out our new FLF Shape design – you can actually feel how it works. Feels Like Flying!

That would be the Palmer Platinum, no?

I think he's selling the Crown, which should be in essence just like the Channel Ti. Those have Titanal top, but are not Kessler shaped or made.

I'd stand corrected if I'm out of line...

Bob is right. Palmer started the Kessler thing with the Honeycomb (I think) and added more boards last season. So now it does include the Crown. I have the Honeycomb and it is one sweet ride. I also have the previous version of the Crown and there is a noticeable difference in the ride.

I've been on a few palmers, I've been really love hate with them

their build quality has really come up in the last five or so years, most other big companies I've noticed*have gone the other way.

What year is this Board?
07/08
08/09

I think 07/08 is the first year with FLF shape?
Pictures of the scratches and top sheet please.

EDIT:
After some searching the spec match the 08/09. Just want to confirm that.

How heavy are you if you don't mind me asking?
and approximately how many days do you have on it?

Thanks
David
