I love party boards. Shame snowboarding existed so long before there were party boards (although maybe the fatbob/Shawn Farmer could be called early party boards). Been on a stalefish for 4 years now. Looking at a yes right now.
Have you rode the Dancehaul pro yet? What category does that sit in? I’m thinking like a fun free ride . Waiting for some validation before pulling the trigger
I was torn between the dancehaul and the almanac. I went with the Almanac! I'm a bigger guy 6'2 with size 13 boot 245 lbs. I figured the almanac will suit my riding style better. I'm currently riding a 161 wide gnu riders choice and its too narrow, my toes and heels overhang way to much. Was looking for the widest board possible I was gunna get a doku freighter, but it's a little more than what I want to pay. I also went with the almanac because it seem like it has a little more snap and charge compared to the dancehaul. Also the dancehaul is only a 157 and I feel like I'm too heavy for that, I think I would sink in the powder. The only thing I regret about not down sizing is for tree riding, I do alot of tree riding, I feel like a short board would be awesome. I hit the park form time to time but I don't do any crazy jibbing. I hope i picked the right board, and I hope the 27cm waist is wide enough. A second runner up was the never summer protosynthisis but it was a little expensive for me because I need a whole new set up and new outerwear. Does anyone have recommendations for boots and bindings that might help guys with bigger feet avoid overhang? Or just some binding that will pair with the almanac but wont break the bank.
Avran did a review & recommended bindings. Couldn’t hurt to beef up slightly if you’re a big guy though. I’m similar size and demo’d it with ride C8s… but DoD, Cleaver, Katana pro, union force probably all good shouts. WW on the 161 is 27.2 … you’ll be fine.
Dancehaul size recommendation? Middle aged intermediate rider on the ice coast riding groomers and some park. I'm 5' 6", 135-140lbs, size 9 boots and prefer a narrow stance. I had a 154 Salomon Craft, but found it too slow to turn and too stiff to butter. I want something shorter and softer. 143 or 147 Dancehaul?
Which party board do you recommend for a size 14 beginner? Have a friend in his 2nd year. Was recommending him the warpig. Stump ape sounded like an option too but hard to find. Anything else?
I haven't rode the regular party wave but own a PW+. I spent a good chunk of time on it last year. I couldn't imagine it less snappy. Seems like it would be a wet noodle. It has a lot of flex and a fluid and predictable rebound. Great for butters and fresh pow. It's a disaster on icy or choppy terrain. Moguls and tight trees are fines, but push piles and hardpack in between and it falls apart. For reference: 5' 10" 190lbs 100 days a year, 20+ years Great board, depending on when and where you ride.
@@chadlucierYikes, thanks for that. Was thinking about getting one for my dad since he just likes to cruise and hit side hits. Gonna look elsewhere since we’re in the northeast and last thing I need is to be responsible for destroying his knees and ankles at his age
@bexyd5750 I live in Vermont. I bought mine thinking it could be a fun daily. I was wrong. It has significant 3bt and most days it's more of a chore than fun. My slush slasher holds a better edge. The fresh tracks and woods are amazing, so it has its place. I'd deffinetly consider something with some kinda edge tech if it's gonna be his only board. I picked up a warpig to replace it. One day I will find the perfect party, pow, carver.
The Biru newer goes on sale...Given its a small company i get why Not. still a warpig on sale is almost half that price. I still want one i just can't justify the price...
im riding the dancehaul and shadowban this year baby
my favorite video of the year. i only ride my dancehaul, slush slasher, and service dog anymore.
Got the Biru in a few weeks ago- it rips and pops way better than I was expecting
Everyone needs a party board. CLICK THE LINKS AND CONSOOOOMMMM
That YES All In is for sure a Party!
@@tributeboardshop I'm looking at the yes plc (and other letters wide contact points camber)
im too old to go to parties and yell WHOO! over and over again
Ride Warpig over the Dancehaul is crazy
I love my superpig, had a warpig but missed some snap and is a bit loose at speed.
Love my party wave plus!

@@demostat1 I have my Fat Bob!
Fat bob was ahead of its time.
@maness2112 and heavy AF. Was like riding around with a door strapped to your feet.

Try a Stump Ape from LibTech

Top 5 groom carvers please! 😂
Pretty sure the already covered that one. Jones Freecarver 9000 if you can handle it.
Where you been there’s already two of those lists. Do better.
@@AngrySnowboarderLiving under a rock obviously😅 mea culpa
Can somebody bring the snow party down to big bear and azsnowbowl already? 🤣 bone dry down here

147 in my opinion, 143 seems very small.. I'm only 2" taller 150lbs and I love the danchaul in 152.
How would you compare the Stalefish to the K2 instrument?
Wtf is a party board?
Shhhh nobody knows!
@@scootermcgoot wide nice radius floats carves lands jumps like a dream. It makes even snowboarding say "damn now thats snowboarding"
Short, wide, bit of flex, fun at slow speeds kinda boards
@scootermcgoot it's when the CEO's get together for a private meeting.
Another Party Board top 5! 😅 If you knew how many unrealistic but fun and cool boards I own.

Why did they make the Yes all in look like a golsun undead 😮
Does the carbon in the party wave plus ruin the playfulness or is it a worthwhile addition for someone looking for more snap and responsiveness?

no party platter? not even mentioned?

It was mentioned in honorable mentions not as an honorable mention itself but mentioned nonetheless. Catfeesh?
