Pretty vague question man, you really need to narrow it down to the board(s) your interested in.

how much does it cost to demo boards? would love the chance to demo a variety of boards before i make my next big purchase

Generally speaking a company demo is free, just need a C.C. and drivers license as collateral.

When store's offer demo boards, usually there is a fee associated because to them you are essentially renting a board. Most shops will, however, credit your "demo fee" towards the purchase of a board if you do indeed make a purchase.

Most all major (CA, CO, UT, WA, etc...) areas get company demos, you just have to pay attention to websites and keep an ear on the ground to hear about things maybe not so advertised.

Holy crud, the Agent Rocker is selling fast. My buddy wanted a smaller size but all the smaller sizes are gone. I settled for the 155. There will be future shipments from Rome right?

Too late for my buddy as I already bought it for him so he's stuck with it haha. (Nah, I asked him and he said it's cool) But still interested in knowing.

Originally posted by azn_dan eyeing that agent rocker myself as i was eyeing it ever since the videos from SIA. Too bad 153 is gone.. or was it even in stock? Just got on sierra since last night.

Actually I don't know if it was ever in stock. I saw it in the preview pictures so I figured it was... plus there are only 2 155s left.

I love the Rome Anthem SS graphics :)

perfect timing for the Aussies looking to upgrade their gear mid season  1 month of this short season left.

I'm diggin both models of the Anthem, those are sweet looking boards.  I'll have to keep my eye on those ones the prices start falling.

Lets see some Agent Rockers in smaller sizes :)

I don't think they've released a list of what brands they are going to have. But they have confirmed that they won't have any Burton, Ride and K2 sadly

o really? Was looking forward to some k2 this season also... I knew about burton but i thought the other two were up in the air, guess that means no more nitro either.

oh my bad, for some reason i thought nitro fell under the jarden umbrella

lol well then, i stand correct, thanks Alka. I checked Jardens site, but they never mentioned nitro.

Mmm that agent rocker looks sweeeet.

Gorgeous boards!!!! niccee!! how about the bindings, the collab of sierra/rome?? debating between that and the new rome 390 Acid/Boss..it just looks so dang sick!

They look so goo. I might have to buy a rome board this year.

Nitro is not part of Jarden.

romes the betst!!

Originally posted by Alkasquawlik Nitro is under the Jarden Corporation umbrella, as is K2, Line, Ride, Raiden, Volkl, etc.   Jarden pulled all of its brands from Sierra so there won't be Nitro either.

ah gotcha.

Dang, I thought the rockers were selling too fast and I pulled the trigger. Oh well, I used the opportunity to get some things for me and the gf... and one of the hoodies only had 1 of the XS left so that was nice. I'll probably get another one in 153cm when they come in and sell off the 155cm. See what my buddy wants to do.

Wait so is Sierra going to carry Nitro or not?  Because I really wanted to buy a Ripper this year.
