Set the OG TF another cm forward for today, and it's feeling really good. A little more locked. I'm about 2cm forward now, should be good there. Curious how I'll like the new one in this regard.

Borrowing from a local friend who mostly rides alternative snow toys. Tomorrow is going to be interesting. Narrowed my normal stance by an inch, and going with my cheater angles (3° more forward than normal) 33/12. I also set it just slightly forward. Will probably experiment, but it just looked better

Pocket Rocket looks like it rides like the original B Backhill type boards. Just swoozling around trying to hold it together. Needs a center fin.

Having watched my friend ride it, and this, I have higher expectations than a nearly unrideable board

It’s a fun board. Surprisingly good at carves. If the nose wasn’t so scary I’d probably own one.

I wasn't really being too serious. I'm sure it's fun.
