Ultimately its still your choice but Oz here has posted my ordeal i've had to endure over the past 2-3 weeks or so. I spoke to a guy who happened to be riding his DH of the same season up the 'local' the other week when i was using my old Forum and he claimed his board had taken a total battering and had survived that season, and to be honest it didn't look in too bad nick. When i road the board for the 2 weeks before the break i had loved every minute of it, having gone from a very old, edgeless Forum with numerous delams to this hot-looking 2007 DH i was very very happy with my purchase  Until the break.
The company claim to be very good with customer service and that bollocks btu i think the truth will be known by tomorrow when i find out how clued up this manager is. I'm very very unhappy with their decision because out of principle, the board should NOT have snapped. Given my current money situation though and the closeness of the winter months, i may still be riding a DH this season.
I hope the board brings you joy if you're gonna go for it. |

i've not had a problem with my dh. i've had 3 so far and love the board.
i've gone off a kicker and went nose first into the flat and didn't snap it and i was 14 stone at the time so it can take a beating. i'm not sure why snowaddict's board snapped so easily. |

i read about snowaddicts issues at work yesterday, that really sucks dude i hope you get that sorted.
Whats the flex on the DH like? I weigh about 14.5 stone and im 5' 11, ive always had issues finding boards but the DH caught my eye.
I know its a park board but can it hold its own all over the mountain? What does it handle like on kickers?
Thanks guys. |

Awesome board!
I want another as it goes - If any one has the Limited edition they want rid of then PM me!
I am 5'6" and 14.5 stone, been riding my 155 a year, both in the park and on a mountain. Cant fault it in all honesty!
You can't go wrong! Not to keen on this years graphics - you should be able to pick a good second hander up for about a tonne fifty i dare say!
