Mountain board

North BoUND - 31-10-2011 at 11:23 PM

I'm looking for either a used board or some sort of a good deal on one as I am a broke college student. I'd prefer a gi board but I'll consider anything.
Thanks,
Chad

How much are you willing to spend?

I have one I don't use. It's an MBS core 90. I bought it used this past spring to get into ATBing and replaced the skate trucks with MBS matrix trucks and also replaced the bearings. I would need 200 to want to get rid of it. I can send you pictures if that is in your price range. The footstrap buckles have some rust since the board was from Florida but its just superficial rust.

The board has been collecting dust for the past 6 months (I got All terrain rollerblades instead). The trucks have a few scratches on them from the 3 times I used the board to go down a hill, but are stainless steel so will not rust, otherwise the trucks look new. The board does look used but is in good condition. The only thing you might want to replace if you are really picky are the buckles for the footstraps, but those should last a long time without needing replacement I think.

Nice synergy by the way! I have the same colors on the 15m.

elnica: Sorry, I don't think I want to spend that much on an MBS. Thanks though

That GI Patrol is an awesome board but its out of my price range unless he is willing to deal a little.

heres another one for 125 but it says sale pending so maybe its gone. Worth checking though, it looks to be in great condition.

I called about that flexifoil board, said they found out how hard it would be to ship and didn't want to ship it so it's still available. Too bad though, looked nice for $125.

Because taking a few bolts off until you have a flat item that fits in a box is tough.... :megan::moon:

Good luck man, you're definitely looking in the right place.

I have a GI AK 103 I might be willing to part with . . . . Never used

North BoUND - 2-11-2011 at 12:11 PM

Id be interested in that :D

if you're looking for inexpensive all the Peter Lynn dealers have access to Kheo boards.

North BoUND - 2-11-2011 at 02:15 PM

The Kheo boards I've seen look pretty high end and not that cheap. Am I missing something??

erratic winds - 2-11-2011 at 04:56 PM

Kheo Kicker is their base model and it's quite nice for the price.

Maybe its just the whole new/used thing. About the only new board I can afford new would be the GI bomber and I'm not sure I want to buy something that cheap if replacement part are going to be a tough find now that they went under.
