Clap clap clap!!! Another rider form slovenia on this site...wicked :lol:

I still dont know...I tried to buy a 172 f2 Silberpfeil but they are all out of stock so I must w8 till they start making 2005 models....so I'm in a dilema weather to buy a Silberpfeil or a Swoard.

I would buy the swoard fors sure but I dont know if I should spend 800+ € on a learning board :cry: I will have some work to do before I can EC and I noticed my other equipment is not good for EC too! I have a long way to go thats why I planed on a Silbepfeil for the end of this winter and next season then when I have mastered the SB I would buy a Swoard.

So...the question! Go for the swoard even if I will be learning how to ride it correctly a season or two or.....

Buy a f2 Silberpfeil and learn how to EC with it and then buy a Swoard?

I realy dunno what to do :?

Silberpfeil or Swoard

Strange question. Why buying 2 boards in 2 years ? Except if the Silberpfeil price is a quarter of Swoard's one, you can directly buy the Swoard and learn on it. Thanks to its great performance and versatility, your technique will increase quickly.

Yes I seem to have made up my mind...It is going to last a few seasons and a SB is expensive too but I can get it for half the price of the swoard and it seems to be a good board.

I already made my selection :) But I still have a lot of time to decide, and I would like to purchase more boards for more Slovenian guys becouse I wanna have friends to learn with to watch and so on...riding alone is sometimes borring :?

Swoard 175 hard :lol: I measured about 184cm and I have 93kg's right now...I'm gonna loose 8 till next year so the hard core will suite me perfectly :)

A piece of the soul of snowboarding

Post by sic t 2 » Tuesday 2 March 2004, 15:08

Like the movie a lot. After 8 years of hard riding I am coming back "home". Realizing that snowboarding is all about effortless, smooth style no matter what kind of equipment you are on. Just kicking back and enjoying your day and communicating that to everyone around you by the way you move your board. And nothing does that better than the extreme carving form. And after traveling all of the american northeast, and trips out west, I realize that I like my home mountain the best too. I guess I have finally arrived.
