Iv heard a few say don’t try a carved board unless you can afford one, as it’s so good compared to other boards you have to get one once you’ve tried one, Any truth in this or just marketing talk ?
I've seen it happen multiple times when people tried out my carved board. Due to the lighter construction that uses less resin the board feels alive. When riding it reacts very different to chop and there is very little delay between rider input and reaction from the board. In the jumps it hardly feels like you have a board on your feet at all as it's so light, I actually had some jumps where it felt like my board got blown away. This is gives it a total different feel to "regular" carbon boards
Yeah I tried an Imperator 7 at a Core demo day in Squamish, I ordered one afterward, I ride the North Atmos, and have ridden the Duotone Jaime too, the Imperator is just in its own league, nothing comes close. I can't really put it better than Steven, the product really lives up to its reputation. Now if only Core's kites can feel as light as their boards and bars ;)
@@Plutoniummatt glad to hear you like the board so much. What would you like to be lighter on the CORE kites? I guess the bar pressure? You can play around with the settings a little bit to give them more or less bar and steering pressure. It also depends on the kite you ride. XR has the highest bar pressure and the Nexus has significantly less. XR pro also has a lot less bar pressure.
Thanks a lot for the chat! Was good fun.
What about impact 3 ? and the bolt 4 ?we are still waiting for the update 😢
Hm, did not hear anything about 'Impact' model from special ones
