Hyped on my new daily driver and the graphics

[mention[/mention]

Totally unexpected purchase today. I think I might’ve snagged the last 161 in Canada. Admittedly haven’t ridden a Burton in a long time, but I’m pretty excited for this.

New addition to the split quiver

I find it a bit special how similar the Public Dispute and the Nitro T1 are this season.

My local shop isnt a Nitro dealer and they have never been on my radar but i can see the similarities after a quick google search. Give the small brand the benefit of the doubt. Ben Bilodeau pro model graphic too. Wonder if him and taxwood are both larpi g as cowboys these days?

@Sangwich69 had horse graphics before them both

swapped the 153 for the 157. I thought the 153 was proportionally sized to the 157, it is not. completely different camber profile, the 153 is basically flat. I didn't realize they are different board designs, even on the website the 153 is labeled ' freesytle' the 57 is free ride

Welcome to the Millisurf Club! Hope you have as much fun with it as I do with mine.

I am impressed how nice your Diodes are looking, considering that these are like 8 years old or so. I had the EST version of these (first on a Trick Pony and then on a Hometown Here) and loved them, but the shiny highbacks scratched and scuffed quite quickly.

This is the best looking snowboard I've ever seen.

Grabbed them off a homie who only used them once then they sat in his closet for nearly a decade. Burton strap bindings haven’t changed much in that time. I’ve only ever ridden EST bindings on channel boards, so I’m curious to see if these Reflex Diodes will offer up a bit more response. I have no doubt they’ll get scuffed up pretty quickly, but that doesn’t bug me. Tools, not jewels!
