Well, since the SoHe season has started, how about you guys put up your new purchases?

Here’s an old pic of mine since I’m in the NoHe and everything is in storage.

Should be getting a Prior split and a 54 K2 travis Parker (wild style base) from friends before next season. If I do pick up an ‘11 Burton Sherlock then the malolo will prob be sold too

Dude, the BMC boards were the shiz. What year model is that? I think they stopped making them in about 2002/3? Anyway, that’s a nice quiver you have there. wink

It’s an 01/02. It’s lost alot of it’s flex but that board still rips at high speeds. No chatter whatsoever. Had to get used to the super narrow waist though. It’s good in pow too.


A great resource for looking up old burton boards:

My Current deck for this year is:
Capita Green Machine (10 Model - 154) - Union Contacts (10 Model) - 32 Prospects (09 Model)

Other decks at my house:
Forum Scallywag (10 Model - 155)
Rossignol District (08 Model I think - 150)
Force Covert (08 Model - 154) (Board from Melbourne, really good board for the price I paid)

And boards I haven’t even ridden which we got cheap for friends:
Lamar Cruiser (08 Model - 157 (but the holes are way too close together, don’t know why))
Craine Sports (Aldi brand - 155 (stiff as a Custom X with absolutely no tech lol. People have successfully ridden it though)

And we got 2 pairs of Ride boots, T9 bindings, Force bindings, Aldi bindings, Lamar bindings.


smile - 6 boards, 3 boots, 5 bindings, 3 jackets, 3 pants, 2 decent goggles, 2 decent gloves, 1 helmet

And a pic of my baby for kicks smile

Its homemade mate.
Cheap as hell too, simply just a bit of wood (unsused skirting from the wall/floor) and rubber door stops which are 1inch in depth and screwed into the wall. The board just hang in the rubber stoppers. ITs just painted the wall color and you cant really see it when boards are hanging.

Ahh I had a Burton BMC back in 2003 also - rather liked that board! I actually sold it fore more then I bought it!

Prior to that I had the Burton FL Project which was the BMC equivalent around 1999/2000 smile
