    Just got back from a week in Val Thorens, France with my new board. The Goliath is one hell of a board! Very stable at speed. The triple base prevented much of the edge catch on the cut up runs. Definitely stoked on triple base now. 😀

    Having been a skier a while back, twin tip skis are traditionally park/freestyle to give the ability to ski backwards better. Tbh i don't think there is much else to it.

    Went to a shop at an indoor snow slope and got my setup. Unfortunately I didn't get to try any of the boards mentioned in this thread. 🙁 However, i am now the proud owner of a 10/11 Bataleon Goliath snowboard, and 11/12 Burton Custom Bindings.  😎

    Thanks for the reply Frosty.I really like the look of your suggestions, especially the Taipan. 😎 I will have to see if there is somewhere I can demo them nearby.Also, have you had any experiences with the K2 World Wide Weapon? I really like the look of this board and want to know if anyone has tried it?

    Just been and spoken to the guys at Subvert Boardstore. They recommended some boards and I would like your opinions. The three boards were:-K2 World Wide Weapon http://k2snowboarding.com/snowboards/www-wide#ReviewHeader (They recommended this board at around 155cm)-Ride Kink http://ridesnowboards.com/snowboards/kink-Burton Blunt http://global.burton.com/mens-boards-blunt-snowboard/252213,default,pd.html?start=7&cgid=mens-boardsAll of the boards were wide versions.In terms of bindings they recommended the Burton Cartels.Any opinions would be appreciated.
