It's gonna be almost 3 months I have my boards now and I just keep noticing that the market in Quebec is terrible. Firstly everyone calls Snowblades, which I'm now used to. Secondly everyone rides Salomon blades and Elan blades. It's really terrible. Other then my boards, the only other boards I've seen thsi season that are pretty good are Fisher XXL's and Line Pro. That's it. Nothing more. Is it this terrible where you live:confused:

I've never met someone here who knows something about skiboarding :D

And this snowblading thing is also something I'm already used to, although I'm trying to correct everyone with the right name.
Other boards then salomons ? no way ... the only other boards I've ever seen, are mine and some bullshit cheap things with no name :D

Skiboarding doesnt really exist here - so it's always funny when people look at you like you are from mars when you are doing some tricks :D

you should ask them if it would be ok to skiboard in the park with the Spruce Riser Releasable Bindings.

That's terrible. At avila I emaied the guy in charge of the Snowpark and he said it was something about balance. i told him about all the snowboarders that bust their faces open and he said it isn't us it's the insurance companies...thats just wrong
