WOW, going from salomon 90cm snowblades to these was an entire world of difference! with the snowblades if i just tried to go down the hill as fast as i could they would bonce around and make a very scary ride but with these i felt so stable. The main thing i like about this board vs my old salomons is the landing area is so much bigger, on my snowblades i was terrified to hit any jumps bigger than 3 feet, this weekend by my second day on these i was pulling 180’s off jumps and getting probably 5 feet of air on other jumps, It was very easy to switch to fakie and come back by spinning, the only problem i had was when i was trying to ride fakie and then spin back to normal, they would try and go for more, but i consider that a good thing not a bad thing, Overall i am very happy with my R8 Citys and i hope you will give them a try.
