Narrow boards fast killed alpin snowboards 1 time... not again.

Who? For sure you can't be talking about the Swoard team. It has contributed a lot, I hope, to make a big community and a nice spirit. In 2002 this Forum became a chance for Europe because there was almost nothing except BOL Forum in USA.Newon wrote:we meet Guys riding a swoard or other wide bodies. We always have lot fun together . SOME GUYS HERE ARE GOING DO DESTROY THE SPIRIT OF SNOWBOARDING .

For his freeride movies, Terje Hankonsen chooses mountains with perfect virgin powder. He won’t go on tracked mountains and bad snow, though it would be no problem for his riding. Simply the goal is to get good images for the movies. It’s the same for Jacques and me about extremecarving videos: for good images, most spectacular turns and snow sprays, it's better to shoot at the opening when the slopes are well groomed with good snow (not so often).Newton wrote:We do not have the perfect slopes you are used rip with your boards.
With pleasure! Jacques and I love the icy conditions too. We often go on the glaciers in summer. I remember a sequence shot on a black and icy slope in Grimentz (artificial snow). It was not easy to extremecarve there. But then, in the movie, the snow (all snows are white) seemed easy to ride!Newton wrote:Again my invitation come to ride and have Fun with us under our COnditions (Hintertux in early summer pure Ice sometimes)

I think it oposite wise, for more even surface narrow boards are easy to ride, but when surface gets more bumpy and un-even, then wider boards start rule. Anyway i think that is proven by race boards, nowadays they are really designed to work on most terrible surface and wide of boards are just growing and getting softer. You will have much better balance and boards are more forgiving when they are wider and softer.frunobulax wrote:With narrow boards it seems to be easier to keep the board carving through difficult sections, through moguls and tight situations.
