Carbon Fiber 125cmBoards >> Lacroix Longboards >> Carbon Fiber 125cmALL MOUNTIAN GROOMERS POWDER BUMPS QUALITY Rider Reviews---------------------------------------------------------------------------A super fast and stiff longboard skiboard. Excellent on groomed hard pack and ice. Very, very fast. Nice in pow with plenty of flotaton. Does require an aggressive rider to get the full benefit from this board. Quality
is top notch, and the board is beautiful with the carbon top sheet. Nice 10x4 inserts for Spruce riser and binding. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Today I met up with Jack and skied his Lacroix 125's. Here is my impression. I started out with a 5cm setback on the powder plate. We got about a foot of very light powder during the night. It was also very windy so we had a lot of wind blown ice sheets. These boards are very stiff, stiffer than the Sherpas. The stiffness does not hinder the powder handling of this board at all. They could really float the powder and turn very easily. The shear mass of these boards makes them very stable. On the ice, these are the best gripping boards I've skied to date. As stiff and heavy as these boards are, they definitely feel smaller than the Sherpas. The edges are a little catchy and possibly could be improved by some tip and tail detuning. The glide is about the same as the Sherpa as near as I could tell skiing side by side with Jack on his Sherpas. After lunch, I moved the Spruce riser to the center postion. I usually like at setback, but on this board the center positon makes the grip and overall feel even better. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
