Hi Jeff, I run a store in Sydney called Inski. Drop me an e-mail if you’re interested in doing some demos with us. dom.drexel@inski.com.au

That’s great! I’ll keep an eye on your progression guys. Hope you’ll get a place at snowboard market with some benefits in cash and respect.

Anyway it’s challenging to make snow-stuff without snow around (may be you’ve got indoor slope near?), so Shay could provide a lot of useful data able to ride the great number of USA resorts (lets ask her kindly!;))

PS If you are going to distribute your products at Russia, you may contact PROSNOW company (prosnow.ru, e-mail: info@prosnow.ru -it seems to be an exclusive distributor for 686, Flux, Never Summer, StepChild at Russia) as a start point.

Good luck!

Thanks ghostovan for your kind feedback! I am stoked that people such as yourself like the design. There are so many great board companies out there already but hopefully Chemical Storm offer something different for the rider.

We are putting together tech specs at the moment. I will put these up here once they are available. We are still finalising the final product so I can’t comment on what is inside yet. However, this board is aimed for the Park. We will be releasing a All Mountain board very soon. Maybe we will also have it reviewed exclusively by Shay? 🙂

Being located in Brisbane, Australia where it doesn’t snow at ALL we will be doing direct sales in order to expand our market. We are working on a online store for our potential customers. I would love to see Chemical Storm boards in RUSSIA, one of my favourite countries!

Sick design is standing aside from common products – good move!

But what inside Jeff? I’m curious about tech specs and “best for” guide line (how do you see your board fate and path? is it made to park/all-mt/freeride?) – sort of “the board spirit” putted into by your hands guys.;)

All the best wishes to you Chemical Storm!

PS Are you going to do some direct sales? (I doubt that here at Russia I can get one of your sticks at local store in few next years..=\)

Thanks for the comments Andy B and david!

Unfortunately there is NO design benefit of the tip/tail of the CS Rocker. We just wanted to create board which stood out from the crowd. We just hope you like the shape of it as we do?! I think most of the benefit of the board will come from the camber (rocker/reverse camber). I am a big fan of the rocker and I believe it’s here to stay.

I would like to thank Shay for her time in reviewing my first board. We are an Australian company based in Brisbane, where it doesn’t snow. We rely on people such as Shay to help with testing and feedback. Hopefully we will be able to send more boards for her to review in the future.

Kind regards

whats the theroy behind the tip design? Large surface area in the nose for good float in the pow, but kind of the reverse effect in the tail. Long contact lenght on a short board. I’d love to see more insight from board engineers, on tech. Industry tech terms from the marketing departmen drive me nuts, all the boards are very simalar in consturction, its the little tweaks that set them apart.

Nice writeup Shay. Would not mind trying out one of those Chemical Storm boards myself. Eyecatching design to say the least and what’s the shape of nose and tail all about?
