Hey guys,
I was wondering if anybody had any experience with these boards? I have been searching around the net but information seems rare :mad:
I'm 5.9 165lbs with a 9.5 boot. Ride mostly backside bowls, tree chutes, and the blacks. Some blues when I need to move around the mountain. I stay out of the park. Looking for a quick stiff board that holds stable at speed but is easy to get around trees. I'm coming off a 04 Ride timeless that got stolen.
My style isn't really long sweeping turns, I try to ride aggresive and move around the slope on my way down. I'll be riding out in Utah this winter, than mostly at heavenly during the rest of the season.
So anyways, I am looking at getting a Unity Pride 159 (04/05 model) at a great price, or the 05/06 santa cruz duo freedom from a buddy in europe. Unforuntaly I wont be able to ride either of these boards before my first trip since I'm stuck in Atlanta until Feb. so I will have to buy one blindly.
Anybody have some comments or suggestions?
thanks!
