I think I finally nailed the board I have been looking for. I have to give thanks to Doughboy for pointing me in the direction of a early rise tip/tail with standard camber between the bindings. Hands down the best board I have ever rode! I guess the 2 feet stash of powder I found today didnt hurt but this board rode like a champ. I am super stoked! It grabbed tight on turns in any condition, it had a ton of pop(I added 2 carbon strips and some carbon under the bidings). It floated from powder to crust with ease. The control I had on the board was awesome!
a little spray paint to the tip and looks as good as new!

rockered tip and tail camber underfoot is the best design there is. rocker underfoot is stupid imo.
Glad you're stoked on your board.
Honestly I think you and I are the only snowboard builders in the country right now that are doing this with the "flat rocker". I love the flat rocker because you still get pop, that you don't get from the radius rocker.

The all triax CF board is super light, very poppy and flexible . I built the core super thin so that contributed to the flex. It definately has a different, flexy feel when riding. I didnt find it too noodley however I have only tested it on P/PP conditions. I am curious as to how it handles on scraped or icey conditions. I think this design will probably end up being my pipe/park board. I think it could also work well as a back country powder board. Right now it is my second favorite board that I have built.
