Sunday Shredding
Today, once again, I ventured up to Winter Park to make some turns with Dave and Paul. The weather ended up being pretty much perfect, and as much Bluebird as it could get. I decided to take out the Titan TX and the Flow NXT-FRX bindings today. I wanted to get more riding time in on the Titan, even though Never Summer discontinued it (more over morphed it into the Raptor X) I wanted to do a follow-up on the review I did earlier last year.
I’ll be posting some follow-up reviews on some boards shortly, as well as finally laying down the review on the Skunk Ape. Sunday was a good day of shredding, but I ended up calling it quits early. My 32 Lashed boots were a bit uncomfortable when used with the Flow NXT FRX bindings. The FRX bindings are insanely stiff bindings 5 out of 5 on the stiffness scale, but they compliment the Titan-TX so damn well. The Titan is one of those boards I love to come back to and ride. When you first get back on a camber board after riding rocker&camber, it feels a bit weird, but once you start charging down the mountain, you remember the feeling all too well. I love the way the Titan TX instills this feeling of nothing can stop you when you’re making turns on it. It’s a stupidly fast board, and the edge response is the best I’ve seen on an all mountain board up to this point. I like to tell people, that Titan will ride you unless you actually ride it! It’s such a true statement, as the Titan is such an aggressive board, but oh so much fun. I’ll be taking it up again this season a few more times, to get some more turns on it. Next season I plan on picking up the Never Summer Raptor X and shredding on it.
All in all, a solid day, with several big runs down the mountain, fast, and furious style, in some Pow, through some trees and even over some ice literally.
