Snowboarding - Product Reviews

jessedwyre - (February 28, 2007) i ride a 156 ' 07 prophet- this board is beautiful- i've spent a couple of days riding it- mostly on hard pack hills/parks in the east Montreal -saint saveur, mont tremblant etc. this one super smooth ride. you have to stay on top of it - but if you're looking for a deck that does everything this is it. there is sooo much speed available to you its like driving a bmw. i am a small guy- 5'8 125 lbs so i was wondering if this board was going to overpower me as i was previously riding a 151 super flexible deck, but from the very first run i could feel a huge difference- this is a solid deck, super stable and incredibly responsive. it takes about 10 seconds to trust this board with you

therhythmelite - (January 10, 2007) I go riding with skiers all the time. They used to have to wait for me to strap in, but now I'm in and gone before they get their pole straps back on their wrists. I love the solid feeling and the comfort these bindings have. I would recommend these to anyone looking for strap performance and step in ease. Don't let people tell you they aren't as solid as straps. The only people who make the claim that flow aren't as good are those who haven't ridden them. I let people talk me out of them for several seasons but now that I have them my only regret is not having them sooner.

jb83 - (December 28, 2005) I am new to snowboarding and have only been doing it for a few months. This board is quick and good handling.I am starting to get the hang of it and hope to get better.From as far as i can tell the board is reliable a couple marks here and there but overall good shape. You get those alot when u fall.I would definately recomend this board

reviewers - (11/05/2010) The gloves were purchased for the 30 minute commute to and from work, to shovel snow, and for brief outside maintenance. I charge my gloves overnight, turn them on max power (blue light) 30 seconds before putting them on – warm and toasty gloves in 30 seconds (or less). It takes me a minute to get in my car, start it, and another 5 minutes of driving before there is heat in the cabin of my car. At this time I turn my gloves to medium (amber light), and after another 10 minutes or so I completely turn them off. If there is snow on the car and driveway I take care of that and have my hands nice and toasty throughout the entire process. Shoveling snow during a blizzard is now a snap as my hands stay nice and toasty during the 30 minute to an hour ordeal (going from max to medium and back to max as needed). I took my gloves on a long journey and kept it a max for close to 2 hours – my left pair dies about 10 minutes before my right pair. My gloves were stored all spring and summer without being charged and here I am now starting my 2cnd winter and it is worming like a champ. I am pretty happy with the service and believe you can get very close to what the manufacturer promises. For questions and clarifications email me – anharis@yahoo.com.

M2002Murphy - (12/28/2008) This is the second year in a row my son has received a snowboard with the slip in bindings. They are JUNK. The bindings come loose and fall off the board, thus making it useless. This board is a total waste of money. Wouldn't recommend it!

jjmai - (11/20/2008) I upgraded from a pair of old Burton step-in bindings. These Mission binding fits very snugly with my Burton Moto boots. I feel little (if any) wiggle room when compared with my old bindings/boots setup, and therefore a more reponsive control on the board. The toe cap is a plus, too. My toes feel "hugged" by it. The straps's plastic *looks* a little flimsy when compared with the big cushioning on the straps, but only time will tell how they hold up. Also, if you let the top strap flap around when you are carrying the board, the metal release/clutch can actualy bang into the board, likely to leave some small scratches on a shiny board.
