My MBS was stolen out of my car and I need to replace it. Anybody have a Mounatinboard for sale.

Thanks Dan

How much are you looking to spend?

Some of the year end stuff that Kent has up are pretty nice.

Would anything there work for you?

Thanks for the link but I have only $150 to spend.

I shall keep looking.

Thanks much Dan

Still a bit higher then your target. but Corey at WindPowerSports.com has an new MBS Atom 95X for $179. Rated for riders up to 180 lbs.

Otherwise, will just keep my eyes peeled. Expect you will see stuff hit the block as folks gets tempted by the new GI boards.

I now have the shakes from not riding. Anybody have a board?? I am close to buying an Atom just so I can ride but I know that would be a mistake!


Thanks Dan

If the Atom would be a mistake, I am assuming you have your heart set on something that your wallet and good sense is putting the kibosh on. So 'fess up.... what is it?

ATB,

A used core 95 or the like. The core 90 would be great but the stance is narrow for me. I am 6'6" and 220# My friend has a core 90 and it works well.

Maybe the atom would work but I have never seen one in person. I do not know if it would support my weight and how narrow the stance is.

I do not know much about other companies but I would ride what ever I find. The problem I am finding is shipping. Many do not want to ship a board and I do not blame them

Thanks Dan

The Core 95 is a great choice in my opinion. But I don't think you're going to find one anywhere for $150 shipped unless its really beat up.

Thieves suck.
