I was updating the Korua page for like half an hour when they launched, so I wouldn’t miss it, but it seems close enough to the Noserider that I won’t buy an Überegg. It is worth getting one for sure though, had some extra fun with it last season. Worked in some tough spring conditions where my other boards didn’t, as long as it doesn’t get too hard, then it’s no use riding these boards. Deep and steep and trees it’s excellent, likes to be sent off pillows too. Turns really fast, so might have some issues with oversteering at first.

finally they also updated the TF specs

I would jump on the TF54 specwise, if it wasn't that wide
But i think the TF for me, (62kg/136lbs, 168cm/5.5 feet "tall", Size 7 boots) is the 50.
I would prefer more effective edge, but I'm happy for the 8.1 meters sidecut

I have a homie here in town almost the exact same size as you and he rolls TF150 solid and split. Loves them both.

I think this is going to be my next board, when the season starts

You're in Sydney, right? I recently found out STM in Bondi will be carrying Korua soon.

:P I’d like to have the new TF 157. The old TF classic is a lot of fun, but the new specs look very sensible.

Sold my Stealth to @RedsMissingJacket and my TF Plus to @pow_hnd, so officially Korua-less. I just don’t see the daily driver board for me in the current line. If they make the TF standard in a 163 (or maybe even a 160), I’m back onboard.
