I'm selling my Stealth 63. Love that board, if it just had... basically ANY tail kick, I'd keep it. That notched nose and lack of tailkick make switch very... interesting.
I traded my US Orbit for a TF Plus 157. Fun board, but I'm a touch too big for it at 210 lbs. Fun in the park and mellow cruising, super light. I think I prefer trad construction overall (dampness, bit more momentum for the extra weight), but I have fun throwing it around
If Korua made a TF 160, I'd own one as my daily driver.
is the issue the size or the construction?
also you're back! was starting to look like this would be the only internet snowboarding forum you weren't gonna be on
Haha I tried to sign up several times but registration process was broken. Was fixed this AM.
Shape more than construction, but bit of both. Just not enough edge. I almost think at my weight I prefer a bit more heft to my boards.

Already ahead of you haha. I traded for Parker's Hovland snowskate specifically so I had something chill for teaching toddlers haha. I also picked up a 155 Salomon Six Piece jib board for $50, and may invest in Step Ons or Nidecker Supermatics.

if you can swing it the moss c3 is perfect for messing about with youngsters. i outweigh you by a bit and its fine low-angle
Thanks for the rec. That'd be a fun one. Ridden quite a few Mosses, but still a few things I want to demo. That, the Fluffy, the Jellyfish are top of the list.
