"lizbubb" wrote in message .. . Anyone tried a Scott Aurora snowboard? There is one for sale in a shop i know for £100 which for my first board might be adecent purchase cos im a beginner. Don't know about the Aurora but I have had a Scott Alturis for about 3 years and been happy with it - it's handled everything I've thrown at it. If I had a complaint on the Alturis I'd like it a bit stiffer - the Aurora seems to be a freeride/ freestyle board http://www.objectiveride.com/matos12.php so that could be better, but maybe *slightly* less beginner friendly. BTW the Aurora isn't one of season's range http://www.scottusa.com/eusnowboard_boards.php You don't hear much about Scott boards cos they don't sell them over there *points vaguely towards Atlantic* but there are a few reviews he http://www.boardreviews.com/reviews/...ott_frames.htm offtopic I just have to add I'm retiring the Scott cos my Donek Incline came yesterday *dances happy dance* Cost £295 including shipping !!!!! and only took about 3 weeks from order to delivery! It's my second Donek - the first was fab at MK but too short for me on the mountain so that'll be up nearly new on ebay sometime soon. Now if I could just get a new collarbone :-( /offtopic Liz Thanks for the info liz, i just bought the board anyway, i am up in scotland so i will be visiting one of the resorts up here on sunday, most have decent snow cover, just need to hope the roads are open. Good luck with your Donek - whats up with your collarbone? |
