HPS Fish the sicker stick?

It seems like this was a kind of disappointing ride, sorry to hear that, because I liked the old iterations of the sickstick. I'm interested as to how this is similar to the Antidote though. I picked one up at the end of last season, and the thing is super stiff and poppy, and is full camber, which kind of sounds like the opposite of this deck. Just kind of wondering why it was a comp other than that it's also a freestyle/freeride hybrid deck.

sick

thank you so much for this video!! from japan!!

Got to be honest I would purchase the best fastest base regardless of it's recycled properties.

Is this stiffer then the inguchi pro?

Angry or nice snowboarder…depends on the day

I have the TF and just bought an Otto for the switch riding thinking it would sacrifice some carving ability but damn the Otto holds a heel edge way better for me (might be the bindings though? TF + cartel vs Otto + union falcor). Need to try the TF with the Unions.

Did they change anything from 2024 model?

Thanks for the review TC! Was waiting for this one. I’m looking into buying a passport this year and was surprised you rode a 160 at 160lbs. I’m 170lbs and 5 foot 9 and was thinking between the 154 and 157. I’m coming from a party platter and excavator so I don’t want it to feel too long for the trees, but I also don’t want the 154 to feel too short. Boots are a 7.5 so width is not an issue. Any suggestions for me?

What size do you recommend? I’m 1.82m, 84kg and size us 10. Thanks for the review.

Avran looks different today. Maybe it’s the weed I’m smoking

I’m 6’3, 230# with size 12 boots. Is the 157 doable or better on 161? Afraid the wider width of the 161 will take away the nimbleness of the board.

What’s the board on the left I love the design on it

I have MS and the numbness in my legs poses it's own challenges. I want to learn to do butters and I'm thinking of getting the Rome Gangplank with the Union Ultra bindings. Do you think this setup will sufficiently help me with this? I've been snowboarding for the last few years, and just recently got a Jones Mind Expander, which made me realize that my setup can potentially really help and make things easier. I've been riding the 2021 Salomon Sight with the NOW IPO bindings, and just recently tried 27/12, which helped a ton to improve my carving. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I snowboard in Ontario :/

Unrelated question: have you guys tried elevated surfcraft snowboards? If you have, what are your thoughts?

ily

i love your fucking reviews

Would Katana Pro bindings suit this board (158)?

Blackfriday RIDE sale is on! Got one for $195, will just sell it for more than I paid if I hate it

I was torn between this board and the arbor candle rain, I ended up ordering the candle rain mostly because it was on sale , but I like the fact that arbor is very green and sustainable, and I say several videos saying the rain and aeronaut are very similar, after hearing how good and fun this capita is and the fact that the rain was very comparable I couldn’t pass up picking up a new 2024 at nearly half price.

I just bought the 2024 version (yellow) in 155, I’m about 5’10 150, I slapped on my 2024 Burton cartel x bindings , and have the vans aura pro boots…. I enjoy speed , weather it’s above the tree line or in the trees or on the groomers laying down carving, I rarely hit rails, but love jumps, and drops racing my buddies, my old board was a 20 year old camber board and 161cm instead of the 155 I got on the rain. I’ve rode the Rossi juggernaut and capita aeronaut.. I think this board will be perfect for me… I don’t mind cartwheeling down a bowl or separating my shoulder sure it sucks but the thrill right before shtf is untouchable. But at almost 28 my years are numbered

Just bought a 24 ravine and its arriving today, its gonna be a game changer after riding an arbor 2018 formula for 6 years

TC dude!! Craa ushing the reviews !! Getting so comfortable in front of the camera! thanks man! Great job

Hi, can this board be suitable for beginners with the basics already established? I'm looking for an all-mountain board mainly use groomers to improve curves and conduction and maybe some freeride. I was evaluating this board either the Jones Frontier, Salomon sight or the drake team. Do you have any advice for me?

Yo. Avran. My brother-in-law looking seriously at this. 6-1, 180, size 11. He’s looking at the 157W or 161W. I thought 157W was a touch short, but the 161W dimensions just looks massive.

c-8 or a-9 for the mtn pig?

Does it have any changes compared to the 2024 version

Thanks for the review. I’m definitely going to upgrade to the Assassin this year! But, I’m undecided on the size between 156 and 159. I’m 5’9”, weigh 195 lbs, and wear a size 9 boot. The size chart says my weight would put be out of the range for the 156, but I’m leaning 156 anyway because I almost never rip faster than 35 mph. Generally, I’m looking for a versatile board that’d be the only board I own in Colorado. Do you recommend a certain size for me or can I go either way?

#5 the only thing that directly translated over for me was wakeboarding, and I'm still intermediate so hey.

Good for eurocarving?

Would you recommend Nitro Alternator or K2 Passport as a daily driver? I ride off-piste in powder and trees with the occasional small rock drop. Thanks!

This guy is definitely not angry enough

Hi, not sure if you'll answer, but I'll give myself a try. I'm looking at all your KZbin videos, I love them. I just bought the Jones storm chaser 2025, and I have the ultra mind expander 2024. It's been 21 years that I snowboard, mostly splitboarding the last 10 years. I'm going to Revelstoke december 15 (first big mountain I live in Quebec, Canada). Which board (ultra mind expander or storm chaser 2025) you think I should bring ? Big thanks, keep doing your videos 🤙

Any bindings from union you would recommend for this board? Extremely difficult to find any rome or battaleon bindings in Aus however there are plenty of greats deals on unions at the moment

I ride a LibTech BRD and I love it, but I’m choked that it’s discontinued and I’m looking to replace it. Would the banked country be comparable? Any other suggestions.

Long time viewer/lurker. Regardless of using them for step on, I hear magnificent things about the Burton Photon boots. Would you ever do a video reviewing those, or the Ions? I was surprised to not see them already featured on the channel

teeee ceeeee ; wouldn't mind trying a directional twin

Just want to add that it floats very well. I ride same size as TC and same weight, and it was great even on lower angle pow in late season, wet, sierra snow.

If they ditched the 3D nose, it'd be perfect.

If you had to pick one as a daily driver Ravine, LibRig, or deep fake... Rankem. I only bought one board in the offseason and these all mountain freeride boards are on my radar. Probably gonna pair one of those with BM Transfers.

Had one as a daily driver for the past few seasons, one of my favorites for sure.

Very informative! I would love to see a similar one about Nitro Inclune TLS+

Hi TC, what is your boot size in cm?

What happened to avren

Hey tc my man. Lov you l. I have this as my daily driver with katana. Now I want to match this with one of the following capita : indoor survival or resort twin or super doa. What you .suggest? Or any other of your preference.

Seems they didn't have a "clue" what they were doing.

230lbs in gear. Burton 10 burton boot. This in a 161 or 164w or 160w. My weight can sometimes over power my 2020 mountain twin at 162.

Looking at the Indoor Survival. All mountain rider wanting to get better in the park. I’m 6’2” 185lbs 11.5 boot. What size should I get?

I have a Hovercraft but I have always been attracted by the Twin. Thanks for the review
