Kyle: Yeah! I got a board a year and a half ago… I’m not going to get rid of my current one. It’ll still be great for groomers and all mountain stuff. But it’s HORRIBLE when there’s powder, so that’s why I’m looking for a powder board for those good ol’ snow days. P.S. I’m so glad you found my blog and commented!

Mike: I love your board design!!! I gotta see what yours looks like once you’ve adjusted it for the bindings etc. Colour scheme is AWESOME.

Sean: Yeah you’re totally right. I’m not saying Shabusen is the best, but hey, it’s all you can eat.

Jimmy: Yeah you’re right. I’m planning on going catboarding this year, but yeah, I don’t want to buy a board just for one-time use. I’m hoping there’s lots of powder multiple times this year. I was actually thinking of getting the Malolo but I kinda got tempted by the custom Fish board. I doubt I’ll be able to afford that anyway. Thanks for the advice though! I’m always looking for good snowboarding gear info!

Thanks Allan! I was figuring on taking a screenshot of the desired board, doing up a narrow painting to match the porportions, and put all the effort in the visible zones. I’m just disappointed you can’t seem the change the color of the font on the bottom.

You don’t want the fish. You just need something a bit longer and with a wider waist. The fish pretty much sucks on anything but powder. So unless you’ve got access to Choppers, Cats, or Sleds you’re better of putting your dollars to something a bit more universal.

Sweet board Mike!
If you are feeling the top deck design buzz, consider the fact that most people will see the tail of your board while lining up to get on the chair and any graphic under the binding inserts instantly gets covered.

Now you got me thinking about doing custom art paintings to fit into the narrow shape of a board! Aaaaagh!

Good lord, I could go crazy coming up with board designs… This is just the tip of the iceberg for me here, but here’s my stab at it:

I’m jealous.. I need a new winter ride. Every year I need something new – board is on the list this year if I make it back in time for the pow.

Didn’t you get a new board last year…or was that that year before?
