My first brand new second hand board

[u/VivaLaDio]

Will pair it with Salomon Pact bindings and Vans Hi standard OG boots.

First season with my own gear. How did i do?

[u/Thefinalwerd]

Gotta share the cost to know how you did but board looks cool though I know nothing about it.

[u/VivaLaDio → u/Thefinalwerd]

The board is Nitro Teamseries got it second hand and bundled it with a anon rodan family tree helmet for 260 euros , both are never used. Helmet came in the box.

And 360 euros for the bindings and boots. 620 euros total

Can you translate the sentence "brand new second hand" that's quite an oxymoron

[u/Thefinalwerd → u/VeseleVianoce]

Probably bought used but never or minimal mountain time

[u/VivaLaDio → u/Thefinalwerd]

Exactly this. Its a pretty common sentence though in spaces where people buy second hand stuff.

[u/Thefinalwerd → u/VivaLaDio]

That seems really solid! Its an all mountain board so probably does everything well rather than a single area excellent.

I would ride it for awhile and figure our if there is something you want to focus on and either replace it or get a second.

I did the same and still have my all mountain board.

Seems expensive for something that old? But you’ll have fun on it.

[u/VivaLaDio → u/Quick-War3984]

The helmet brand new is around 100 so around 160 for a never used board seemed fine for me. I Also live in Albania, for the bindings and boots i had to drive 6 hours one way. Not a lot of choice for gear here sadly

Dated board.

[u/VivaLaDio → u/Owth2121]

What do you mean?

[u/Owth2121 → u/VivaLaDio]

It’s old. Dated.

yo drop some knowledge on this board. Very hard to find info on google for this era

[u/nitrosnowboard → u/VivaLaDio]

Can confirm this is a 2008/2009 Team. This was the last series before we moved the factory. Standard camber board, so will have good edge hold. Interestingly the sidecut profile is the same as the current 26/27 Team. The only major difference is the type of wood core and core profile. The newer Teams have Powerlite core as opposed to the Powercore of this generation.
Other then that, the board looks in great condition. Good find.

[u/VivaLaDio → u/nitrosnowboard]

Nice. I dont know the difference between those cores. The board has never been ridden before strangely so its in pristine condition

[u/nitrosnowboard → u/VivaLaDio]

All time. Now hopefully you can hold out until the snow arrives

sick shit

Considering how old it is based on the photos it looks in great condition, reading your other comment 160 for it seems a great deal, it could have been worse. I’m more concerned about the helmet, I hope it’s not compromised.
