    Looks like you were having to stay a ways in the backseat to keep the tips from diving still. Is that right, or does it just seem that way?
    I do it because I can.
    I can because I want to.
    I want to because you said I couldn't.

      Thanks for showing us that Mitch,

      I almost forgot snow came in the unpacked variety also. REALLY want to get out on my RC's in the deep stuff. Living through you for now.

        That's just my tendency from riding the regular condors through conditions like that for a good while last season. I didn't use the clips that had me falling backseat multiple times in short succession due to that. I definitely didn't need to be in the backseat as much as I was.

            Sweet . MitchK , thanks for posting the vid ! so happy you were able to get a pair of the Rockered fat birds , they rock ! for those of us who are used to riding the original Condors , the new bird defintely is different , IMHO .. they float better and more smoothly from a dead center balanced position then any skiboard ever made .... just amazing ...

              First day out and you have conditions I may never see in a life time out here in the prairies. Glad they are being put to good use Mitch.

                  probably thigh deep, but it was heavy/wet so you didn't go too deep if you were moving.

                    Looks like you had the same tendency as I going to the Rockers. I also wanted to weight the tails more than necessary and ended up going back seat several times. Looks like you had a good time, though.

                    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming... "WOW! WHAT A RIDE!!"
