Mary Jane/ Bullet narrow skiboards?

[jjue]

I
So the Rocket's/ MJ's are realy faster then the KTP's and even the Condors?

Maybe we will have to have some R8 speed tests to really find out ! ... the wider boards do have some friction issues that do tend to slow them down a bit in some types of snow..

I volenteer my services for that test now I just need kirk and brett to race me lol

G, send me a few pairs of boards and I'll run some speed tests on em. I can tell you EMPs push about 55mph before you start worrying about aerodynamics and wind resistance

[pinkkid]

well, yes I plan on getting th MJ's and will certaianly let them fly as well as my husband who actually really digs that design. cool!

I knew you'd want to pick up a pair of the rumspringas

[Roussel]

those must be bomb for bombing down hills.

I started off using narrow boards and have to say, for east coast groomers and icey conditions, they are super quick turning and fast. Even though they have a wider turing radius than say a 98cm board, the speed you can generate on a narrow board compensates for it. It is also good to note that flex also plays a factor in how fast you can go, I always find a stiffer board to be faster, but would be more taxing on the knees.

Course, using a narrow board in powder conditions can sure be tricky!

I am going to use my rossis for just bombing down hills and my summits for the park and higher perfomance riding

Do you know if Exclaim are still going strong?

I've been checking their site periodically and it hasnt been updated in quite a while.

Been a while since I contacted them, but they were planning to continue this year

I hope they do.

A UK dealer for Revel8 boards who offers free shipping and extremely competitive pricing (even considering the strength of the £ against the $ and ordering from the states) is exactly what skiboarding needs in this country. They looked like a sound bunch.

Thnx, I have already been checking this site but wasn't sure they where still in business but I'll keep an eye on them.

I just had an email from Exclaimskiboards and they will certainly be carying on this season. They will even be at the Olympia ski show. Cool.

That would be why there fast. so when you hit powder you just glide ride on top. just don't go slow.
