Flex feels same as TF. Camber looks almost identical, but maybe a hair more backseat. Hyped for this one.

i mounted my pencil about 2cm front of centered on inserts mostly to not sink the tail as much and easy when riding pow.
it worked great for me carving groomers as well.

I centre my bindings on the sidecut but slide the front disc forward. Works out to a perfect 21.5 and feels dialled.

I’m stoked for you, Spenser. Hope we haven’t overhyped the Pencil, but it really sounds like it’ll be the one for you. Certainly was for me.
a bit of taper, a lot of camber

I'm all for it. I'd do that with the original fish shape, probably.

Mounted the pencil the other day to see how it looked, and it just looks... correct. It would take quite a fluke for this not to be the shit.

So that's what happens when you leave a Pin Tonic and a Burton engineer high on acid, in the same room for a while, huh?

Digging the creativity, design and coming up with a different way to ride. Mad respect for putting this into production.
