Sorry but no, i have sold all Madds away, only one left on rack is Paula's 158 waiting for buyer.
I'm more with some "mightier than" boards now :wink: where narrow model is 21 8)

But it is interesting see soon Madd pricing, now with low dollar they might be temptating.

since they are made in italy its unsure they will be able to lower the price following the dollar curve...transport is more expensive, euro gets high....it will be hard for them to keep it low its tough...

good question... but producing a specialized production like madd has with the carbon butterflies etc... implies not changing producer everyyear and having to reexplain, reproto etc....like crazy....so i would assume they are still at the same small factory...

Madd pricing for Titanal 1099USD which is converted to euros bout 750EUR.
Normal version without Titanal is 899USD converted to 615EUR

That is not bad deal now cause when placing order by this Sunday (25th) one will get free bonus, TD2 or Catek bindings, which one you prefer more :D

I am pretty sure they are still made from Max at Spirit... in fact, he just started selling the Piega with Titanal for 630 Euro...

Max applies the real price of titanal in his price....unlike some that double the price of the board when it includes titanal...everyone knows the price of a sheet of titanal :)

Second to Pokkis, no Madds anymore for me either.
Although my 170 was great board to much money for such a slipshod job. :naughty:

I had applied last years "Black Friday" newsletter for a 180 with bindings but no replay nothing although my 100$ deposit.

When I wrote this in BOL forum together with other messed up fellow carvers "Jack" the mod decided to delete the negative posts.

Never again.... :naughty:

I just want to repeat, i was fully happy with my Madds on that time.
As well to service from Madd team, i had never any problems with any of 4 Madds i bought.
They were very flexible and shipped all boards directly from italy to me so i managed to skip all VAt problems too.
As said Black Friday deal is really good deal as such.
But i know also that some folks have had problems to reach them too, but i never had :D
