librider Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 I've been looking for a new technine jib series board and they are so hard to find in the US. Im looking for a 153. If anyone knows of any online places or local places that have them i'd appreciate the heads up. I know DH has/had one so he might know.

DHarrisburg Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 The board is super soft but also breaks fairly easily. I've already warned Dennis about this so I don't feel so bad posting it but the TN Jib is one of the cheaper boards they have made in their China factory and you get what you pay for. I purposely went out of my way to not put too much stress on my old Jib (read: I didn't do any tailblocks) and still broke it after probably 20 or 30 days on hill. I realize this can be 2+ seasons for your average rider but in my experiences I would stay away from any of the TN China boards. Their more expensive lines are pressed in the Elan factory and are awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it so far though. It won TW's goodwood so it cant be too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHarrisburg Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 It won TW's goodwood so it cant be too bad. Once it really breaks in I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. I never said it's a bad board, I'm just concerned with how long I'll be physically able to ride it before I have to get a new one. I'd rather not have to replace my board four or five times a season.

Dan- Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 If transworlds board ratings are anything like they're resort rating, i wouldn't go by TWS to much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
