I heR good things about YES from AngrySnowboarder reviews I looked at them but had to go with a more budget friendly nidecker. Mb next season I will grab one bcuz it was my first pick
I was testing the nitro quiver cannon last weekend and i would describe it as a raceboard rather then powboard. Because it takes so much energy to turn in powder and the rather hard flex and long edges are actually nice for carving, if you have the space and speed...
I own the 2020 YES 20-20, and have just got home from a week in Tignes, French Alps. They had a lot of early season snow, and even powder (3ft snow drifts even). Extra lifts and pistes were opened early. I alternated between the 20-20 and my '19 Flagship. I completely agree with Andreas, in that the float feels quite "level", and takes a little while to fully trust it. But it works! I'm just work on my switch and spins now, and it felt totally comfortable both on piste and in powder. Plus, the extra width helped with my big feet not dragging. Also, I've found the pop to be pretty good on this too, especially when "dolphining" as I call it, in powder. (back to back gentle ollies, looks like a dolphin infront of a ship). Really nice spring with very little effort. Its a board I can tell thatI'm going to progress well on, even if it is technically way above my skill level needs right now. Cant wait to hear what you guys think of it! I've got some footage I'll try and put into a video on here soon.
Hi, I would start the snowboard, and I would have some advices... I started skiing 2 years ago, (I’m thirteen but before I couldn’t practice because I was in Reunion Island) so I’m not so bad but I’m not a pro (logic). In my local resort there is not much powder, is it disturbing for snowboard ? And how long do I need to get down a blue runway without too much trouble ? So in your opinion, is this the right time to start snowboarding ? If you want clarification ask me. (sorry if there are mistakes but I am French) Please answer this is important for me ! Thanks...
Matthias LEPETZ you don’t need deep snow to start snowboarding. The sooner you start, the better. If you feel like you wanna give it a try - go for it. Depending on how fast you progress, it should take you between a month and two to hit the blue lines comfortably and stress-free.
Matthias LEPETZ in my opinion - yes, at least in the beginning. If you learn on your own you can develop bad habits that will be very hard to get rid off in the future. I know it’s expensive, but if you can afford it, take a few lessons with a professional.
I'm wondering if the short surfers make the landing of the jumps tricky. Does the short size affect the balance on the front to back axis in this situation ? Thank you :)
Zeb Powell on the Nitro Canon is a contradiction that only he can pull off. side note- that shop always has a grip of boards in stock. going back years of SBPC, the SHOP always has a deep inventory AND variety. who buys all those decks?!?
What width size board would you recommend for a size 11 boot. I have been wanting a 157cm arbor westmark midwide, width at 26cm Do you think this is good for a 11 boot?
I am just wondering if anybody can give me advice, I am 18 years old turning 19 pretty soon, and I have been to whistler two times and have really loved it and I am thinking of moving out there, is that crazy to do before going to University? I have a few more questions also, is finding jobs out there hard? Is finding a place that is cheap that I can live in solo or maybe with one other roommate hard? if you have any other tips or anything else to tell me please do, also I am not from Canada I am from Hawaii.
Cool video just wish you guys didnt reuse the same footage over and over again. Pretty lame kevin you can do better. Been a subscriber since the beginning.
marty maness I have the Magic Carpet and take it to the groomers quite often - it’s a much better jibbing board than my daily driver - Bataleon Boss. That’s the beauty of twin pow boards - they’re super versatile.
