In reply to NICK.

Hey Nick,

Thanks for the message and I’m sill using the board for dryslope sessions. She has taken a beating, but certainly does the job for what’s needed on plastic.

Thanks,
Baden

Comment on What Are Lib Tech TNT Bases Actually Made Of? by Troxaris

Great job for tackling this issue which is so carefully manicured by aggressive marketing that celebrates TNT bases. The crux of the matter is that we are talking about an extruded base (no matter what they have baptized it) at a high-price board. If it makes some sense on boards aimed at 15y-old freestylers who spend everyday in the park it makes NO sense for a freeride board made for steeps, powder and groomers (carving). Also, VERY important: what happens once the base is scratched (and thus loses its properties)? how are you supposed to maintain it after it loses slidability if it doesn’t absorb wax?

Comment on Dude! Where are your highbacks!? by Shelley

In reply to LJ. Best article EVER! I've been riding with no highbacks for over 20 years. No one can ever understand why despite my repeated attempts at explaining. Got a job as a snowboard instructor this year & my lack of highbacks has inspired an epic season long debate amongst fellow instructors. I've got a few coworkers willing to give it a shot for curiosities sake. ????

Comment on Burton Step Ons Review – Do They Live Up To The Hype? by Luke Parker

In reply to Santi. Hi Santi, The binding lugs will show wear and tear as they are a compression fitting, as long as your not experiencing undue movement or a loose engagement then I think things should be okay, but if your concerned I would send an email to Burton directly or take them to a Burton dealer for their expert opinion.

I had an GNU with sintered base. What i’ve noticed it was that this base was very absorbant but in the same time it was so thin and soft, one stone opened it easy. Then I took Lib tech with TNT base, not really sure it was faster but for sure is harder base, better for rough terrain! Great thread btw

In reply to DW. My previous TNT was great but the 2018 model came with the TNT base, It is fine in average snow conditions but once you get a nice dry powder day the board sticks to the snow like shit to a blanket. I wont be buying another until they go back to a high end sintered base.
