All Mountain board shiped to AUS

so, looking for a new board. but it needs to be shippable to australia, so no burton, no capita, no arbor and no rome boards...

so of
the sierra/rome package $550 after post
the Technine tmoney 2012 $310
the F2 revolution air    $300
or the Sapient element   $510

not that price is a massive issue, and ive alleady got a pair of rome s90 bindings with 2 seasons of wear. (verry little) just means i have bindings for both boards.

all of these boards seem to be all mountain boards by there description and all have sizes to fit 6' 180lbs. love freeriding but just getting into the park a little bit after exploring the mountain.

Consider some other brands which still ship to Aus.

Flow, Nitro, Signal, Palmer.

I ride the Sierra Crew which is great all mountain, unfortunately only small sizers are left.

I'm similar weight & height and ride a 158/159 for all mountain, that 152 linked above is too small. You could probably drop to a 156 if you like to ride small..

Offtopic: Do you ride Perisher, I can't wait for the season to kick off!

Also don't forget, if you have someone in the US you can ship to, you can then get them to post it with no issues. Usually spending that sort amount you will get free shipping within the lower 48, so it will cost about the same as going direct from here straight to aus for example. That frees up all brands too.

Been to Queenstown last 3 seasons, usually have a warm up at Perisher before heading over. This season I don't think I'll make it to NZ as I bought the Perisher season pass and will invest a little more time here in Australia.

Ebay goes well. Just had a new 2012 Burton Custom Flying V delivered for $390, no hassles whatsoever!

yeah ebay yourself a burton. worth it. way cheaper and you can find alot of brand new. Agree with Koji3. want to support local but cant justify paying $300 more.

Originally posted by kikko Originally posted by koji3 Mmm, ebay is great. Rome agent 2012 is $750 in stores at my local. $350 shipped on ebay. Big difference.  Don't know if i want to pay $400 to support local for this one... I usually try but $400 is steep..  thats crazy! buy local for $750 or on ebay for $350?? why would any sane person buy local?

yer crazy right.... Smaller things mark up isnt so bad, $50ish so i'll support that but... $400ish difference is crazy. Would like to buy local but sometimes... 
But something to be aware of is the warranty. Like anything, warranty is a bitch from overseas. Shipping there and back would cost $180ish before they even look at it... 

Thats the only thing to be careful of. 

It's good to support locals when possible but boy do we get shafted with certain things in Aus (i.e. snowboarding gear). It's crazy that you could literally buy 2 from the US for the same price as 1 here. Not all the stores fault though, the wholesale prices are far greater to begin with.

Just to chime in on the cost of snowboard gear here in Australia, agree we have to pay too much. I really like my local store here in Sydney and support them where I can with the purchase of boots and other items.

However I couldn't justify the extra for boards, bindings, and outerwear which is why I bought all that gear from TruSnow

I'm not convinced it's directly related to wholesale costs, unless all the manufacturers are keeping prices in line. I'm all for buying locally if prices drop, we know it should considering the Australian dollar is now worth more than the USD.

no friends living in the state who can help you out?
