I ride the Blunt 05 model (sorry 06 Blunt model too I guess) but the Blunt rides nice. Clash is great also and that is mainly the reason I have not upgraded for a while.
As Ride borads go I hopefully will have a brand new spanking one in my board bag on the way home from the good ol tax free (smuggled in to the UK) US of A! Now all I have to do is decide which one! Roll on demo days.
*Edit* did say 04 srry typo - I type with thumbs as opposed to delicate fingers! |

the blunt is a seriously basic board, some of the lowest end construction you will see. it's basically a burton clash with a slightly more freesytle orientated shape.
there are other boards out there which are imo much better for a similar price:
ride kink, k2 www, capita stairmaster etc.
definitely worth looking around |

I brought the Blunt because I had a clash and liked the feel of the board. Although I do totaly agree with you, whilst in Val Thorens my board (Blunt) had chunks taken out of it! I rode a few demos out there too; mainly Ride, and well Im smitten, godbye Burton (at least untill I can afford a top end Burton board)  ) |
