^Sick shit for such a little setup. What is your drop in like?



in case embed doesn't work: https://www.newschoolers.com/membervideo/714071.0/One-hit-in-the-backyard?s=187775


What should I do with my setup? what are easy to build features? I can't 2 on with the way the lip currently is, and I've been feeling limited/bored of the same tricks lately. I want a really long rail but my car is tiny as fuck and transporting them is an issue.

You guys always go hard. Got that 450 down. I worry too much about injuring myself for the season when I ski my setup hard

Oh i suppose there's also the mwax that I forgot to mention. The mSnow guys also sell mWax, a rub on wax designed for mSnow. I know you don't use mSnow but the wax is actually really legit.

Yeah depending on how fast I want to go I end up applying it up to every 5-6 hits. I bought a decent amount of it on a sale a year or so ago. It's also hot where I live in the summer so it gets dry fast.

It just feels more like skiing to me when I go fast on my rig. I used to go much slower when my ramp was turfed.

Well turns out no summer skiing this year, I tore my meniscus doing a fucking octograb on one of the last days of the season. So salty. My setup stares me down every day

Hey guys, big fan of seeing everyone's edits. I had to give away my summer setup years ago. Does anyone in the greater boston area have a setup they'd be willing to sesh this summer? I'm confined to the city now so having my own is tough, but it holds a special place in my heart. PM me if so.
