premier snowskates are good.
i guess it depends on what you are looking for as far as style of board. the premieres are the single deck construction, while i know Gnu makes some good bi-style decks.
good luck anywho |

hey, the burton approach is pretty awesome all around skate, allows you to carve around aposed to the premeirs, and is alot more forgiving than the gnu bi-levles. they were hard to get last year after the begining of the season, however i beleive they should have new shipments out this season..... |

you can seriously book it down the hill on those approach's, they are awesome. skatefilly and I were hitting boxes we built on a super steep hill last winter doing 25 mph on that peice of plastic, no lie. Anyone who wants to snowskate should consider that one first. I've tried em all and it's the best one yet.
mario c. you mentioned GNU skates, I had a Kass and got that promo vid, "What's That." Have you seen it? |

Premiers are generally really fgood decks...I ride a hella old Niko Droz pro model...nice lil' flat skate. I'd like to try out the Approach, sounds sick. |

I beleive its donny green that has the varial (he rips!) sean is gripping his board before his part if thats what you mean, if thats not what you mean he does not work in the gnu factory, spico, shag and them do. Donny and Sean ride mammoth and stuff down there and shag, spico alot of others ride snoqual up in the NW. i hope that made sense... |
