After thirty years on the hill, and one year out from heart surgery, I am back on the mountain. Two days in I have to admit it's finally over for me. I have finally found my one quiver board. The Blunt XLs. Powder, chop, hard pack, broken crud, ice, they do it all. And did I mention they are FAST! It's going to be one hell of a week.

Thanks for the misleading title!

Relieved! You had me worried with the title of your thread. I thought you meant over over.
I'm feeling the same way about the XLs. I've sold off all my boards except for the Blunts, XLs and the RCs. I only want to ride the XLs, so I'm probably going to sell the Blunts too. I'll keep the RCs for deep powder days. That's if it ever snows again in Tahoe.Boards/Bindings:
2013 Spruce Sherpas w/Tyrolia Peak 11s
2023 Spruce Stingers w/Tyrolia Peak 11s
2015 RVL8 Blunt XLs w/Tyrolia Attack 13s
2020 RVL8 Sticky Icky Ickys w/Tyrolia SX 10s
