Fattwins 0 Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 This weekend I got the chance to rip a big line with a Japanese snowboard film crew. We got the chance to rip a huge face that ran into a giant bowl. Why respect? I can now see why those guys who haul ass in powder are on the edge. putting 20 plus turns down that face at over 60kms an hour was on edge. you could feel the balance but it was more like water sking at higher speeds. Anyways I can understand why the pros want fatter and slightly longer skis for control. Cant wait to get back out there and ripe the natural half pipe in the spring. Link to post Share on other sites

RayInJapan 0 Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 FT - I didn't think about this until last night but, are those the "No Matter Board" guys you rode with? Their show comes on every sat night up here at 1235am...I usually only get to watch it when I'm not boarding on a sunday... Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted February 24, 2004 Author Share Posted February 24, 2004 No no no ray. They are riding for a board company and they were flimming mostly for their promo videos. I think the guy puts something together and then sells it locally but his contract is with the board co. Ill find out from No Fakie about what snowboards they were on.
