If anyone wants to buy a 2004 Forum JP Walker 163 let me know.
I just need to pick it up from the shop.
Brand new, I won it in a raffle.
Retails at $369.
Will be on ebay as soon as I get it.

Forum boots have come a long way in the last few years, In the begining they were pretty shite... no complaints with my Bjorn's from last season and if Burton doesn't change anything the 05-06 boots are looking sick.
Same thing goes for their boards, at first they were just a generic factory board but they have put a ton of R&D into them in past 3 years or so and really have a solid board program now which will only get better now that they have Burtons's wheel barrows of money behind it.

good to know, my boots are like 3 years old, so i'll be getting a new pair this year. i'll look into them. i still can't believe burton bought out four star distro. theyre a fucking monster company now.
just checked the new nitro site, pretty sick. i had a nitro years ago and i loved it, so i might spring for another one this year.

I have a 2003 forum 163 wide JP walker and I must say it sux...
They went for tech and already the fancy smansy sliding t-nuts have shattered... I say save your money... Forum is just a trendy name...
want a real board for BC... I am going to buy a prior as soon I can

Burton only bought our snow brands (Forum, Jeenyus, Special Blend & Foursquare) we still own C1RCA and C1.
danthon, i agree... the sliders are shit but they've had em since day 1 and a lot of faithful customers swear by it so we haven't killed it off... I'm sure burton will, we started offering all our boards with inserts or sliders last season.
Prior boards are pretty sick, nice all mountain stick... I work down the road from their factory.
