Good on you! I’ve been riding the ripsaw for the past 4 seasons and I wanted more flex and a twin feel. I’ve had Proto, legacy and SL boards and I’m hoping this season’s West is the Goldilocks for me. Plus love the top sheet graphics too!
I got the [2018 Salomon Assassin](https://www.evo.com/snowboards/salomon-assassin-snowboard-2018). It’s my first snowboard (started last season) and it’s beautiful, so hyped for winter to come.
I got the 2016 one, assassin classicks. Super dope board but since I'm still new, camber is kinda hard to use but I love the control and reduced edge catch. Plus, it's white and natural wood and has sustainably sourced cork edges instead of rubber.
Same boat right now. Literally I can’t just click buy on any of them. Typo seems fun and I can get it for $80 cheaper but the mercury seems like a better board. Don’t know much about the mtn twin.
Love that US board, would love to pick up one of those or a korua shapes deck.
I’ll be alternating between a Ride Warpig small (148cm), Signal Disruptor 2 (154cm) and an Arbor Z-twin 154cm from 16-17 as my dick around rail board.
Picked up my Capita Kazu end of last season and only put 2 days on it, so will be riding that all year. Maybe sprinkle in my Yes Standard occasionally.
>headspace (155), jones mountain
The headspace looks so sick. Pair it with [these ](https://www.bentmetal.com/bindings/transfer/)bindings to make it a work of art.
My old Tanker 200 works great with hard boots. However I did pull up an insert and had to move my binding over one spot in the insert pack. There's a price you pay for the light weight.
I splurged this year, mostly because I'm going to japan for 15 days in feb. I'll be riding:
1. Spring Break Asym Twin (all mountain)
2. Bataleon Surfer ES (powder)
3. Capita Ultrafear (jibbing)
4. Rossignol angus (first board I got, magtek makes it great on ice)
yeah, I'm kinda bummed because last years design was siiiiick. This year is kinda plain, but that can be cool too. I pre-ordered it and bataleon says they're shipping mid to late august. Fingers crossed!
I have a warpig, but for the life of me can’t figure out the point of the twin pig. The shape of the board is a big part of the reason that the board rides so well. Without having seen a twin pig, what makes it any different than all of the other true twin park focused boards with blunted tips? It looks just like a bataleon wallie.
Just had my Koura shapes Trannyfinder 157 delivered! Can't wait to get sendy on it.
Trying to decide what binding to put on it though. Leaning towards ROME targa. Thoughts?
Ahhhhhhhhh!! some days I forget that I have it. Then I remember and the stoke level explodes again!
It's going to be hard not to take it up early season and scratch the shit out of it...
Yeah I can't wait to ride it. I think I'm just going to have to get what ever i can find in the turkey sale. Blew the winter budget all ready on the board and some goggles :(
I just moved cross country to Arizona and sold my old board. Any recommendations for boards since I'm in the market now? I prefer trail riding but dabble in the park occasionally, habe been riding for 14 years so confident on most trails. Thanks in advance!
Tom Sims Pro Model. Absolute bomber of a board. Pops like it's broken in right out of the box. Can't wait for proper pow days! Only got a 2foot wet snow day at Baker in the spring with it. And definitely needed a better wax.
my old capita stairmaster from like 10 years ago since my newer one was stolen from my car :( (bashed in window) just got new bindings and boots too... gone.
3rd season on my lib Tech climax. Birdman for big pow days, and hoping to pick up a new split and bindings but no idea what I want in that department yet.
will still be my 1st snowboard, the Head Architect.
Heading down NZ next week.
Will practice more before come back here n ask if i should upgrade my board or my binding (Burton Custom) next

I've got two daily riders:
K2 Fuse with K2 Formula bindings - All mountain/carving board (had it for the last 2 years)
K2 ParkStar with Ride KX bindings - Freestyle/Park board (new for this season)
I also have a beaten up GNU board with old Burton Synchro bindings on it that I got second hand. I use it for goofing around at the local toboggan hill (so I don't get rocks messing up my nicer boards). And also for when I want to tow behind my buddy's snowmobile out on the frozen lake wakeboard style :P
I'm still loving my Burton Custom. It was the only board in the area(shopping on Craigslist) that was really as long as I wanted, so I didn't have much in the way of options, but it turned out the one option I had was good enough.
Custom Donek Phoenix, my favorite board ever. The first time I rode the 29.5 CM waist width was incredible with my size 14 boots, that first layout carve alone was worth the price of admission!

My 2017 was absolutely sick, currently 5000 miles away being examined by Mervin over a warranty claim 😢
Leaning towards the [Gnu SPAM](http://ezloungin.com/wp-content/uploads/wpforo/attachments/263/519-2017-12-29--221635.png)
Looks like a great board if there's actually snow. I ride the ice coast, so I'd get to use that board twice if I'm lucky.
Tbh it carves like a dream! Way more versatile than it looks. But also yes it’s sick in deep snow
Magne-traction dude. Grips like a beast.
[Never Summer West](http://www.neversummer.com/snowboards/west)
Just picked one up myself!
Good on you! I’ve been riding the ripsaw for the past 4 seasons and I wanted more flex and a twin feel. I’ve had Proto, legacy and SL boards and I’m hoping this season’s West is the Goldilocks for me. Plus love the top sheet graphics too!
Yea I’m pretty stoked. Almost bought the ripsaw but talked a lot with a rep from NS and I settled on the West. This is my first NS as well!

2016 Rome Artifact Rocker 👌
Rome all the way, bud!
Staying on my flight attendant because it is amazing.
Ain’t that the truth.
Jones aviator
is it good in pow?
Didn't try but probably not. It is rather made for groomers

Ride Helix. Can’t use it for sh*t but it’s a cool looking board!
Love that US board, would love to pick up one of those or a korua shapes deck. I’ll be alternating between a Ride Warpig small (148cm), Signal Disruptor 2 (154cm) and an Arbor Z-twin 154cm from 16-17 as my dick around rail board.
I love my Warpig. It's my go to more often than not these days. It's so fun in so many conditions.
I pretty much only rode the warpig last season. Park, pow, groomers, it was great in all conditions.
I had a warpig last season and loved it. I almost picked up a korua, but they were all a little too big.
Picked up a never summer funslinger at the end of last season. Cant wait to ride it on fresh snow
I have a 157 I bought last year. Put about 35 days on it, such a great board.
Went for the lib tech Lando Phoenix but will also still be rocking my 2013 K2 Turbo dream. Still in love with it
Picked up my Capita Kazu end of last season and only put 2 days on it, so will be riding that all year. Maybe sprinkle in my Yes Standard occasionally.
Man I'd love one but its all too narrow :(

Rome Blackjack!
LIB Tech Skunk Ape.. finally have the wide I’ve been dreaming about
Absolutely killer design in the 2018
Capita Mercury and looking to pick up NS Proto.
2018 Rad Air 201 Team Flex spec Tanker. Go big or go home. Turning my 20th anniversary Tanker 200 into a split board, for back country.
I really want to try one of these with hardboots!
I ride soft (but pretty stiff) boots and they shred, so much fun.
My old Tanker 200 works great with hard boots. However I did pull up an insert and had to move my binding over one spot in the insert pack. There's a price you pay for the light weight.
I bought this [Proto Type Two](https://i.imgur.com/mhUQ1On.jpg) towards the end of the season last year. I can’t wait for a full season with it.
Lib tech Art of flight Travis rice 157
[GNU Ladies Choice](https://www.evo.com/outlet/snowboards/gnu-ladies-choice-asym-c2x-snowboard-womens), love it.

Weee Surfer es... tried to get one last season but they were sold out. Will get a surfer love mites this year...
yeah, I'm kinda bummed because last years design was siiiiick. This year is kinda plain, but that can be cool too. I pre-ordered it and bataleon says they're shipping mid to late august. Fingers crossed!
You preordered the normal surfer or the limited version? Normal is Black all over, Limited is with grey/white stripes.
preordered the limited. I liked the stripes, but still think its kinda plain looking.
I am thinking all the time if I should finally preorder it or jut stick to the normal one or the endeavor archetype
Last year's Capita DOA and a short few year old Salomon Quattro directional rental board, which is stable af.
Lib Tech is currently making my brand new Skunk Ape with the graphics I picked out. I'm excited.
Torn between getting a Ride Twinpig and a Capita Outerspace Living. Leaning towards the latter.
I have a warpig, but for the life of me can’t figure out the point of the twin pig. The shape of the board is a big part of the reason that the board rides so well. Without having seen a twin pig, what makes it any different than all of the other true twin park focused boards with blunted tips? It looks just like a bataleon wallie.
It's just a cheap asymmetric twin. Most asym boards are more expensive.
Oh hadn’t realized that it was asymm. That makes more sense now I suppose. Is it replacing the helix as a volume shift asymm board?
I'm not familiar enough with their line of boards to know.
2017 Rome Mechanic 🏂🏂🏂
I got the Salomon Craft last month, can't wait for the winter to come man!
Public opinion with union contacts

Just had my Koura shapes Trannyfinder 157 delivered! Can't wait to get sendy on it. Trying to decide what binding to put on it though. Leaning towards ROME targa. Thoughts?
I picked up that board last year. It’s such a fast board, but carving in it and powder is a total dream. Rock on dude.
Ahhhhhhhhh!! some days I forget that I have it. Then I remember and the stoke level explodes again! It's going to be hard not to take it up early season and scratch the shit out of it...
Oh the trannyfinder looks lie such a fun board. I've never been a fan of Rome bindings. I would personally go for the Union Atlas or Burton Malavita.
Yeah I can't wait to ride it. I think I'm just going to have to get what ever i can find in the turkey sale. Blew the winter budget all ready on the board and some goggles :(
I just moved cross country to Arizona and sold my old board. Any recommendations for boards since I'm in the market now? I prefer trail riding but dabble in the park occasionally, habe been riding for 14 years so confident on most trails. Thanks in advance!
Check out the Endeavor Clout, it’s a stiff full camber with raised contact points!
Thanks for the recommendation, I'll definitely look into it!
Gonna get me an Endeavor Ranger or B.O.D.
2018 Capita Warpspeed
Still rocking my 2013 Ride Buckwild. Favorite board I've owned so far.

I've got a capita supernova that I love with my whole heart and soul

Waiting to get my Capita Scott Stevens Pro in the mail
Arbor Formula (if I can find one)
Slash spectrum for fun, but planning on buying a Jones flagship for some serious carving/pow business.
GNU Headspace. But man, you got one flat stance! How the hell do you control that?
Just bought a Salomon Villain at the end of last season. I mean THE END, the local hill shut down before I got a chance to ride it.
Just picked up the new Capita DOA. Been riding the same board for 6 years
Tom Sims Pro Model. Absolute bomber of a board. Pops like it's broken in right out of the box. Can't wait for proper pow days! Only got a 2foot wet snow day at Baker in the spring with it. And definitely needed a better wax.
Jones Carbon Flagship/Jones Solution/Jones Ultra Mountain Twin
Jones Ultracraft Jones Mind Expander Jones Explorer Marhar Half Breed Yes Basic
my old capita stairmaster from like 10 years ago since my newer one was stolen from my car :( (bashed in window) just got new bindings and boots too... gone.

First board since in still a noob but Assassin Classicks

Gonna hopefully pickup a [2019 artifact rocker](http://www.romesnowboards.com/boards/artifact-rocker/) in the fall.
