Nidecker Platinum UG Snowboard
AWESOME DEAL FOR AWESOME RIDE
By dod5051295 January 12, 2012
I bought this board as a gift for myself after a bad divorce upon my return from Afghanistan from this sight back in November. I got to ride it twice this season and it totally ripped the mountain up. I am a big dude, 6'3 250, and really enjoy getting air and bombing through trees.This thing was super responsive on the steep terrain, and I didn't feel any vibrations on the flat ground. I also put Flow NXT-AT bindings on and was making the transition from the chair to the trail in no time at all.
The only downfall is that the board was stolen while I was getting a beer at the Snoqualmie ski area in Washington. So hey, if you see this board out there give the rider a pat on the back and let them know how awesome the board is. Because it's seriously that awesome!
Good riding.
Attached is a picture of me ready to roll out while the boys are still trying to get they boards strapped up...
