Here is a photo gallery of the Proto #1 Tinkler snowboard.
Custom built for Doug Dryer. Amazing!
Check out some of the guys inspecting the board.
Including Chris, Bruce and Dave. They gave it a pretty serious
"once over" . Enjoy, Bryan

Sorry, I must boast a bit here. I was riding with Tinkler on Fri. at Mt. Hood Meadows and we took a break to check out a board he had made for Ryan MacDonald. Somewhat similar to Dougs without the split and wider at the waist (21.5). Very impressive.
Tinkler is definitely got it going on. The word is getting out and I hope big success for Mike. We had a great day of riding too.

Very cool Slopetool!! Glad to hear you are making turns!!
We have to figure out a way to bring a PNW posse to SES 2006.
Seriously good fun! We had a mixed bag of weather and conditions, and the STOKE was high!! Great group of guys that simply put "RIP". I think it would be awesome to have at least 5 -10 of the PNW bros making a showing next year. Fin and Michele (and all the others involved) have it dialed.

Wish you could have been here. Greg M made it last minute and I think he got an eye full! To sum it up "World Class Carving".

See you on the mountain in a week or two. Bryan


Who needs to be here next year?

Ed N
Mike Tinkler
Jim M
Dan
Mike Tovino
Randy
Scott P
Greg M
Mike H
Able
Dave S

Just to name a few!!
Let's see if we can make a showing this time next season.

I wanna go. After last years SES I'm stoked to go again, as long as that cash is there! Hey Brian, send me an email w/your address so I can put a check/money order in the mail for that 160 we were talking about. Jon

Agreed, what are the snowsticks all about? Tension/pre-load control?

and dampening?

youll have to hear from the experts, as I have no idea

one thing that can be said though...the board is put together _very_ well. no slop here, thats for sure!

I'm really curious about this board. Doug, I'm going to have to plan a trip to Bachelor next season to try it out (this season is finished for me).

I'm curious. It looks like its an asym board because of the stix. Is that right, or are there two sets of mounting holes for the stix and you just switch sides, depending on your orientation? Is Tinkler making boards commercially now, or just one-offs for special people (that makes you special Doug)?

Yeah, where can i order a Tinkler? Is there a website? What are the costs of a board?

Thanks!

I did write a reply with more info yesterday , however it did not post? I will try again tonight. Off to ride . Thanks, Bryan

Mike is building a very limited number of boards this year. They are built one at a time. More details to follow.

I was there...I wish I would have seen you. I was so busy riding I didn't have a chance to stop and hang out. Just got back yesterday. We still don't have any decent snow so I will have to make a trip down there soon.
