  • I started my day on the Spliffs and after a few runs switched to the Stickies and had so much more fun. Admittedly the Spliffs needed a tune badly and the runs were frozen solid but the Stickies have spoiled me. They require so much less input than the Spliffs. Really a fun set of boards.
    Boards:
    2016 Spruce tuned Head Jr. Caddys - 131cm
    2013 Spruce "CTS" 120s
    2010 Spruce "Yellow/Red" 120s
    2018 Spruce "CTS" Crossbows - 115cm
    2016 RVL8 Spliffs - 109cm
    2008 RVL8 Revolt "City" - 105cm
    2017 RVL8 Sticky Icky Icky - 104cm
    2011 Defiance Blades - 101cm

    • SII's vs Revolt

      I'm looking for my first set of skiboards and the Revolts looked to be my first choice. I'm rethinking that after reading this thread. How would you compare these two? The specs are very similar other than the SII's being rockered. Does that give the Sticky's an advantage. Unfortunately my skiing will generally be only week a year but will be in Colorado or Utah for the most part with the occasional day or two in North Carolina or West Virginia.

      Looking forward to your opinions.

        I would choose the ickys over the Revolts. Although they are similar in dimensions, the rocker/camber profile of the Ickys makes them a very different riding experience. From my perspective, the Ickys make everything I want to do on a skiboard easier and more fun, effectively opening up more terrain that used to be beyond my ability.
        Just these, nothing else !
