Day two of the demo’s started off better with an abundance of that Colorado Sunshine the state is known for. With the sunshine came better snow conditions and a lessened crowd. Sadly the Winter Park terrain park remained highly lacking and unable to provide a super freestyle session.
With the demand from everyone to get on a Yes board that’s where the day was kicked off. Snagged the 154 The Dudes which is an asymmetrical twin. Yes was also where the day was finished rocking the Typo in a 56.5.
In between those two decks I was able to snag the new DC Lauri with rocker, which was a solid ride. DC is on the right path by switching factories from Spain to the GST in Austria. After that it was over to the Forum booth to try out the new Holy Moly, lets just say it’s the worst board in the world. Going from that it was back on to the Scallywag cause my inner pirate needed to be released.
For those that wanted a Turbo Dream with Harshmellow that board was slayed afterwards. From there it was time to hit up Rome and snag an Agent 85 which was a poppy deck and fun to ride. But the mind blowing deck of the day goes to the Artifact Rocker it’s completely redone for next year and by far a deck I will own, not I want to own, but I will own this board along with the new Boss 390′s. Romes back baby and it’s solid!
Going from the Artifact it was time to do some charging so Ride set me up with the Highlife and lets just say I wasn’t too high on life with that deck. Heading into the land of rear entry bindings I was able to snag a Flow Era and some grippers.
All said and done two days of demoing went down, 19 decks were ridden, some bindings were used, and high fives and broshakes were thrown down. Look for reviews of these decks in the near future.

We got all our Rome 2010-2011 samples two days ago. They look super. I’m gonna ride the Anthem 163W with 390 Bosses right after ISPO. Can’t wait!!

Haven’t been on the Anthem but lets just say 390 Bosses step in the right direction for Rome.

There’s a little box at the top that allows you to do a site search, amazing feature I know, perhaps you should use it.

Would you say the Artifact rocker is about as flexy as the 2010?
What makes you want to own it?
Posted on March 21st, 2010 at 5:20 am
Completely different board.
Posted on March 21st, 2010 at 8:12 am
They haven’t stiffened it up have they?
Posted on March 21st, 2010 at 6:51 pm
It’s a whole new board.

hey i know someone already asked why u think the holy moly sucked but can u tell a little more? is it a cambered deck just with lifted “tbt like” edges under the binding inserts or does it have like a flying v rocker profile just with camber under feet? and whats the buttercups?
Posted on March 28th, 2010 at 7:26 am
Reviews coming you’ll see when that’s posted.
Posted on March 28th, 2010 at 7:43 am

Posted on March 28th, 2010 at 8:19 pm
Sometime in the future not to sure yet.
