    Test rode a 146 Nug yesterday - finally - and bought one at the end of the day!

    Went for the hideous graphics of the Meateaters Nug that you can only get in shops. It's ugly as hell.

    I usually ride my 159W 2010 Joystick. The Nug was unreal. Any of you ridden one? The Burton rep suggested the 146, never thought I'd go that small. But damn, what a board. Totally different pop in the tail, easier to butter, lighter, super fun. Tons of control at speed, turned sharp too. I'm so happy I bought it. Love my Joystick and will still ride it plenty, but feel like I'll progress even more with the Nug.

    • sweet buddy, sometime uglier is better. if it unlocks hidden levels in your riding then you're stoked.prophetone
    • I've been meaning to ride one for a review, I always hear good things about the NUGMSTRPLN
    • would you recommend this to someone with little experience in powder? looks like it's easier to control for some reasonMiguex
