    so release bindings work just as well as non-release for these boards? I am just so used to having release bindings that I'd prefer to stick with them as long as it's a reasonable move
    I tried my blunts with the Spruce Riser a while back. REALLY nice.

        A quote the Blunts, from RVL8 Team Rider Kirk Thompson;

        "What is this all leading towards? The Blunts! They are the reincarnation of the classic skiboard philosophy enhanced with modern technology and design. They have successfully captured people’s imagination in a way that I wish the KTP could have years ago. I am super excited to see so many riders looking at a pair of boards this small with a fresh perspective – seeing possibilities and freedom instead of limitations.

        I can only hope that the Blunts will change people’s opinions about the limitations of short boards. Short, easy to manage skiboards are the democratic mobilizers of the snow-sliding world. They shun the world of expensive equipment and lessons and encourage a simplified learning curve based on experimentation and a quick feedback loop. This is the route to see skiboarding grow in both participation and economics, which I think is a good thing."

                Jeff Says....

                An excerpt from the interview with Jeff Singer of Spruce Mountain Skiboards.

                SBOL: The RVL8 Blunts, while new on the market, are really generating a lot of interest. Early rider feedback on these boards is very positive. The Blunts seem to have a “variable” personality – they can be carved, slarved, hard charged, cruised on and everything in between. They also have a unique combination of riding way “bigger” than their 88cm length but somehow feeling like they disappear underfoot. Do you have any insights into what makes this board so unique?

                The Blunt design was completely Greco's idea. He remembered a short skiboard from the dim, dark past that he liked and wanted to recreate it, or something like it. I made a bit of contribution to the board, but with so little real estate to work with I didn't think there was much room for experimentation. Why is the board is as good as people say? I don't know. It's more proof that predicting a board's on-snow personality is the same as predicting the personality of one of your kids. It just pops out without explanation.
