i usually try to get on the lift with ppl that have boards im interested in. then persuade them to let me try it. 8-)
That sounds like a great way to never have anyone talk to you on the mountain here
I’ve only swapped with good friends, randoms can’t be trusted to care for your baby
id say a board is a tool not a baby =P
most of my friends know that my quiver is always open for demos. same goes for anyone from EL that happens to be around the same area!
midwest is best

I'm going with troll. C'mon, a 26" wide stance at 15/15 dead center on a twin, and including a kooky reference to Shawn White? And then going with an Antler of all things? I'll give him credit for choosing a board that few have any experience with, so bonus points for creativity.

Smells to me like one of Angry's minions that's offended because the leader of their cult gets disrespected around here. Maybe I'm just a cynic, but there's no chance that these goofy questions are legit.

Pretty entertaining though.

Someone did a similar long-con troll job last year or season prior, wonder if it’s the same person. Gotta admit it’s a funny, high-effort bit a… lot of setup work and pretty artful dance just at that borderline of believably and unbelievably stupid.

The fact that they pick up where they left off each post with inane questions and stances on things, while ignoring or not acknowledge that they're raising a lot of red flags for folks, does tend to support that they're either too dense to understand (unlikely) or that it's on purpose and they're just baiting for fun.

old EL would have lit it up. I guess we're all getting soft in our old age.

I doubt it would stray far from the spectrum we already have on that particular topic. Those who are wrong already know they're wrong...

And I say that as someone that doesn't think there is a right. You like a ritualistic extra click on your straps, cool. You like to get down the hill 25 seconds sooner, cool.

Some folks only want people to do what they do, but if everyone did it, they'd change what they do anyhow.
