Donek boards?
Ok guys, maybe I don't have my snowboard terms correct. I just know at
Whistler it can get real bumpy, especially because they don't groom the runs much. When I start to hit a lot of the bumps, my board has a tendency to "launch" and I get air, land in the middle of a bump and crash. Like I said, maybe I am not good enough yet to handle this and it is probably a matter of technique. I have ridden softer boards with more flex and had an easier time on the bumps. I hope this makes some sense. "Dean" wrote in message ... The Blur wrote: Except for choppy snow, the Donek works great for me. Please explain what you mean by choppy snow and the problem you have experienced with it. I find my Wide 161 to be far better in what I would call choppy snow. My old board would bounce (flex and rebound). My Donek slices right through. Dean |
