    Lib Tech = Greatness. My sister has one (sits in her garage collecting dust) and they are superior in construction, plus...you get the makers' signiture on it ;)
    I ride with an M3 cause I love BMWs that much, actually it was dirt cheap and I thrash my boards anyways, so no sense spending more than $200 on a deck.
    Burton Freestyle Boots (Will probably be upgrading to Nike), Burton Cartel Bindings

    I have three boards. Neversummer titan 156 (cruiser), Winterstick Allmountain 162 (powder), and my favorite I've had forever but don't ride anymore a Rossignol Jamie Lynn 156. Drake Podiums, Flow boots (not a big fan).

    Burton Canyon 161 w/ Burton Custom bindings.

    I shelled out for the bindings, but the board was a freebie my brother scored in a crazy turn of events.

I used to hit the board parks with a smaller board (for my size), like 150ish cm and I am 6'5". I couldn't keep up with my Dad on his ski's even if I bombed the runs. My ride is a 163 cm with that graphite shit in the base, omfg its fast. My dad is trying to keep up with me now. I used one of those gps watches made for running and measured my top speed, I hit 60 mph on a run at Ski Liberty which if you have been there doesn't have many good runs.
    i'm in leesburg, where do you usually go?

    Add me to the list. Been riding since 1994. That was way back when snowboarders were only like 10% of the people on the slopes. It's basically the opposite now, which I still find funny.

    Last year was the first since I started that I didn't get a single day in. I am still depressed about it. Hopefully that'll go away this weekend. I'm heading up to Hunter on Saturday with a few friends.

    My rides:

    Burton BMC 166 [My old bordercross setup. Now called the T6]
    Jeenyus Woody 159 [Park ride]
    Gnu Carbon High Beam 161 [Beater]

    Im 22, and I started snowboarding 3 years ago. I went last week for the first time this year and was greeting with rain, followed by razor sharp sleet, following by snowflakes the size of small dogs :D

    I have a Burton Jussi 154 board, $30 boots, $20 pants, and a $17 jacket I bought from Walmart :D I enjoy boarding, but can't afford to drop $600 on colorful clothes like all my friends.

    As of last year, my goal is now to land both a 360 and attempt a backflip this year :nice:

    I am absolutely addicted to snowboarding. I ride a NeverSummer Premier F1. Living on the ice coast I try to ride VT as much as I can.

    If your looking for some quality shit for cheap, checkout craigslist. Theres always that guy selling a (almost) brand new board he rode once and broke his leg or something. or at sporting good stores in the off season.

    I've tried snowboarding, but i just didnt enjoy it as much as skiing. I always go with a group of my good buddies, and they all board. They would normally bust my chops for being odd man out, but they can't get close enough to talk shit :giggle:

    I'm 26, been snowboarding for 14 years. I've always been young and poor (living in NJ my entire life) so I've ridden strictly east coast mountains. Got a trip planned for a few days with my two brothers to Okemo in VT. First run of the season is always good for a few laughs.

    I currently have a Burton Motion 156 from I'd say about '98-99 or so. I'm thinking about renting this season (surprise i'm too broke to buy new equipment) because my current board features a semi broken binding that barely made it out of last season intact.

    And yeah, i rarely ever see another e30 in west michigan.
    That's because the E30 is in parts in Houghton, Mi. You may have seen an immaculate Imola Red Z3M around in the summer, usually sitting in the lot behind Buffalo Bob's.

    I've been to Cannonsburg quite a few times along with Caberfae, Boyne, and Homestead. I also tool around Mulligans Hollow every now and then as well.
