Those Soul Motion boards are sweet!! Took one out during the PowWow, not only do they look rad they ride sick! As for Powderjets I may just have to head to Maine to design a board, that would be sweet.
was going to buy a new snowboard this year…. looks like next year the trend goes in the direction I’m after. Biolis makes epic surfboards, can’t wait to see what he does with the lib tech guys! Nice work Mike
Where are the Dupraz snowboards? Should fit right in here.
Johan,
I must have missed these guys at SIA. Hopefully next year they will be on our radar. Got any more info on their boards?
PowderJets (VT) and Soul Motion (MT) are other examples of surf shape snowboards. There are so many coming out 2016. Nice !!!
