Hey,

I just came back from my first ride of the season and after 4 runs one of my skiboards broke again!!! exact same thing that happened last year. I last a rail, fall back a little and when I come back up SNAP the board broke right behind the binding.

I was sooooo pissed. I managed to ride the rest of the day but it wasn't too much fun since I wasn't allowed to make a single landing mistake or I would be flying on my ass.

anyhow the riding still was pretty sweet...a few switch ups and
overall a good day. now I have to deal with Greco on a replacement board or brand new Mix boards....

yeah.... thats what I plan on doing =)
but I need boards ASAP and I don't know if mix could
be here in time for my ski trips planned from Xmas till
new years!

and the question is...ALPs or BWPs...=)

with your agressive style... id say go with the 110's... however you may prefer less length cause you like to kill rails...

the decision is yours... either way your getting dope boards...

your a pretty big guy like me, and having ridden the 110's i can tell you they wont dissapoint

Welcome to the club:) I think there are a lot of us with trips coming up over the college winter break time needing boards.. I hope Mix can come through!

I'd love to get the 110s for extra speed and aggressiveness but I fear they may be in the way when I want to kill shit with my soul plate =))) I wouldn't feel as comfortable doing truespin makios with 110 boards.

but if they are all I can get in time when I will do!

yo alex, first off sick part in the vid dude, second off, lynam i'm not trying to talk him outa ur boards cause i'm sure he could rip on um. i think you should go with the bwp's to much length with that soul plate could get messy. not to mention i'm pretty sure you threw a pornstar grind, any extra length on that could be detrimentle to your face.
hope to see you on part of the urban trip dude

thanks jonny!!! wish I could be a part of the urban trip....but with broken boards its not likely!! =(((

I too fee lthe BWMPs would suit me better....but if Tibor from canon decides to ship me another replacement board then I'll keep the canons for the soul plate and use the ALPS for ripping everything else =)

its still undecided and will depend mostly on what greco gets in stock ASAP!!! I WANT TO RIDE

haha thanx jonny I appreciate it but since my boards broke I planned skating sessions for tonite and saturday....
plus I'm 3 hours away from ottawa.

I guess we'll have to do it again later in the season
and I'll be there for sure.

I have to get off my ass and drive a bit....but I know I'll be
the only one going and it'll be a long ass trip by myself..that's
what's putting me off a bit.
