Okay one more question now. Anyone have any packing tips. Last time i went out I packed a bag as well as my snowboard bag. I filled both with clothing and i went with the "roll" technique in terms of folding my clothes. Anyone have any hidden gems that helped them pack better.]]> Wed, 03 Oct 2012 06:00:46 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1203500#1203500 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1203370#1203370 Author: Backside10

Should be the standard 50 pound limit at least I would think, you should be fine taking both. You will hate yourself if you don't have your long board and you get a pow day.  Throw a beach towel in between them. ]]> Tue, 02 Oct 2012 14:34:31 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1203370#1203370 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1202555#1202555 Author: Lux

Riding in Colorado? Maybe you'll end up coming home with a new board ^_^]]> Thu, 27 Sep 2012 20:02:30 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1202555#1202555 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1202553#1202553 Author: alphaod

I would take both boards, though if the option is just one, I would pick the GNU.]]> Thu, 27 Sep 2012 19:45:22 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1202553#1202553 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1201308#1201308 Author: yaya34

I appreciate all the people who posted. and i never thought to just take the bindings off and bring both boards. That sounds like a real good idea. I just have to check and see if their is a limit on the weight of my bag because that might prevent me from brining both.

Thanks alot everyone]]> Fri, 21 Sep 2012 06:34:03 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1201308#1201308 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198942#1198942 Author: namsapalooza

I'd think the Gnu as well. A noodle park board probably won't fare that well in the pow. If you're worried about the front of your board not floating out of the powder, I'd just make sure to set your bindings back a good deal. Have fun in the pow!!]]> Mon, 10 Sep 2012 00:44:00 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198942#1198942 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198921#1198921 Author: Timmay_650

I might go with the stunt. I like RC a lot better in powder than camber. There is the size difference but the size difference is what is holding me back. But my vote is both board ha ha]]> Sun, 09 Sep 2012 22:18:32 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198921#1198921 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198912#1198912 Author: BoxStomper

take both, boards stack up nicely in bags, or if you can only take one, take the gnu]]> Sun, 09 Sep 2012 21:32:24 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198912#1198912 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198876#1198876 Author: gunda pickle

Why not take both boards and one set of bindings?]]> Sun, 09 Sep 2012 19:24:54 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198876#1198876 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198851#1198851 Author: MikeD13559

I'd go w/ the Gnu.  Unless U plan on spending a lot of time in the park (which it sounds like U probably aren't).  I would not recommend a soft board (like the Stunt) if U are looking to ride pow, trees or steeper terrain..etc.. on your trip.

I am taking a trip to Steamboat Springs, Colorado in February and can only bring one of my boards and I want some opinions on which I should take.

I have a 153 GNU CHB MTX and 147 Sierra Stunt.

I rode the GNU the last time I went out to Colorado. The difference between the boards though is that my GNU is much stiffer while the Sierra has good flex.

With the champagne powder out in Steamboat I wanted to know if you think the Sierra is a better idea because of the flex and the ability to get the front of my board out of the POW.

If you have any help for me please comment.]]> Sun, 09 Sep 2012 16:00:44 +0000 http://www.trusnow.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52470&PID=1198829#1198829
