Tanks for the tips. Been a while since I bought a new board. I'm sort of a big guy (195 - 6'1", size 12 feet.) I primarily ride huge pow and steeps at the wood and sprinkle in a tree day at sierra for variety. So my 171 steepwater (an absolute stiff *** tank of a board that would beat YOU down if you didn't ride the **** out of it) works very well. In the conditions I ride in primarily my 164 canyon was way too small and soft. (But amazing on a tree day at sierra.)

The newer lib 86 mullet looks awesome for big mountain sasquatch action but when I saw "based on mid-eighties shapes" I thought of being part of the "guinea pig generation" of snowboarding where a lot of ideas where downright awful. I'm remembering the aysm air, cruzer, gyrator, etc. hahaha

Just got back from San Francisco where I watched Jeremy Jones' Deeper. Definitely worth a watch. Well made and Jeremy Jones insane lines. It chronicles 2 years worth of backcountry riding, all hiking. That is right up my alley

Plus, I got an Alpine pass out of it.

Hahha, but really, it was cool to meet him. He is one of my favorite boarders and this is the first boarder with some fame that I have met before. All it really was is introduce myself, shake his hand, get a signed copy of movie poster, and let next person in line do the same.
