I've wanted a banana skate for 2 years now. Qiong xuesheng concept. and the new ones are pretty busy looking. I want an older generation one that actually looks like a banana.

On behalf of the sport of skiing, you're fucking welcome for the innovation. Let's call it payback for you guys giving us sidecut.

Well for your sake I hope all you ride is powder, because that is all that board is good for, as for me all I ride are capitas, going to try my first reverse camber board this year.

indesertum, there are alot of companies right now that have taken the concept of the skate bannana(reverse camber), just look at other companies and you should be able to find not only a better deal but a board that doesn't have as much going on with the graphics. The only thing the skate bannana has that htese don't is the magna traction edges, which scare the hell out of me on rails.

i dont do rails and snow where i live (north east) can get pretty icy and I've heard magna traction is excellent for ice.

but what other companies have reverse camber right now? i haven't done research in awhile.

pretty much every company this year is making a reverse camber board. I just got my transworld gear guide in the mail the other day, and it has at least 100 different boards listed for reverse camber. Magna traction would be good though for ice, you should see if you can find a skate bannana from last year on sale, nothing has changed on them exepct for the graphics.

ok, I'm not usually this vane, but I just bought a freakin' awesome Burton Method board and was able to match my wine marmot jacket to a grey board based on a new color finder at http://www.snowboardpricing.com/cgi-...gi?color=grey- search for a board by color!!!! Any other cool tools out there?

Fuck this makes me want to go skiing right now. I so need to move to the west so I can waste money on specialized pow skis.

Actually JD, I think it was your sig or some post of yours that turned me onto ON3P. I've been wanting a Billy Goat or Caylor ever since.
