Not a big fan of tbt

By Ranked #658 - Boards December 28, 2011

I got last years Fun kink USA edition and I don't like it. For some reason it feels really awkward on rails and boxes. Not a big fan at all, Really regret my decision on getting a bataleon. Considering all I ride is park basically. Fine for jumps and just riding but I still even find it a bit awkward with those.

don't be discouraged! TBT is the way to go! i also have the fun kink use edition with the tye die print! and it felt weird to me as well. i was actually pretty bummed out on it considering its one of my favorite graphics that i have owned on a snowboard and well TBT was supposed to rock my world! needless to say i always felt off on this board! then i came up on a Evil Twin and i absolutely love it! its the sickest board i have ever ridden TBT is truly amazing and have camber always helps when it comes to pop or not washing out! if you jib a lot i also rode last years aerobic and that thing was nasty to! supper buttery and loose! i think its something about the direction twin personally but hey who am i
