How'd you like this? I still have a HTH split I never broke out of plastic. Good fit on paper but haven't been stoked on a Burton in a while.

Too planky and lifeless for me, which I kinda figured going into it. I think if someone likes a stiff-ish deck with an inverted flex pattern (stiff tips/slightly softer between the feet), it could be for them. It just doesn't really suit my "mountain = skatepark" style and felt uninspiring.

"Inverted flex" and "stiff-ish" is generally my wheelhouse, so I'll stash it and hope someday I get to split consistently enough to justify ownijf it lol. Thanks for thoughts!

No problem, dude! Also keep in mind I rode it in NC... out west in steeper terrain I might find a new appreciation for it.

What is the board with the Japanese writing on the base and the small swallowtail, glimpsed at the very end of this new Mine 77 promo clip on instagram?:

I'm all for self expression and uniqueness. But man, these are something else 😅.

At least wouldn't need an air bag for the backcountry dudes in here. Cos these will def keep ya afloat ;p.
