The time is nearly here! Soon I’ll be freezing my nadgers off in Canada, balancing on a tray, scooting down a mountain. Woo hoo!

Honestly, I don’t get this excited about Christmas any more. There’s just nothing like it. But of course, having splurged on Flow bindings last time, the pressure is on to try and justify a new deck this time.

See, I’m getting fitter with all this working out, but my weight isn’t changing. That and the fact that I have (relatively) big feet means I probably shouldn’t be riding a 161 regular width board. It was cheap at the time, and it has served me well, but my trusty Burton Charger might have to go. Hell, the graphics are over 4 years old! That’s, like, forever!

I can’t claim to know what sintering is, or the difference between core constructions, but the Never Summer Legacy certainly gets some impressive reviews. It’s available in the right size for me at my new weight - with which I’m more or less comfortable, thanks very much for asking. So I might soon be riding a shiny new 166, far too fast, unable to turn the bastard, with a big grin on my face :->
