Alright, so I don’t know if you’ve demoed the Great Beauties or how extensive your knowledge of it is, but I am wondering if you know what the differences are between the GDOH and the GBOH. It seems that they’re quite similar, but I’m under the assumption that there are at least a few modifications and/or updates (other than the sizes).

Also, I’m interested in this year’s Salomon Grip. It won a Good Wood award and seems to have everything, but I am leaning towards the GBOH. I’m looking for a board that can do it all, and while both boards are what I’m basically looking for, the asym cut and CamRock shape on the GBOH have me leaning towards it. Other than that, I’ve looked at the K2 Happy Hour a little as well.

Thanks!

Ty, you don’t need to worry with size 11’s on a 25 ww, the .2 difference isn’t much between the boards.

Hey all,
I’d like to pick up the 158 Great Beauties or the 159 Basic. I have size 11 Forum boots. Think the 25.1 waist width on the 158 Beauties will work for me (15 degrees on both bindings) without any heel or toe drag? The 159 Basic has a 25.3 ww. Think I like the Beauties a little more….

Do y’all reckon the beauties 160 could be ridden with a 12 boot? I can’t find specs on this line anywhere.

Some are made in Switzerland, and some in Tunisia. The Tunisia factory is actually more advanced. The Great Beauties also comes in an alternate graphic, the Great Boobs of History.

Anyword on how the camber for the Jackpot works? From the video preview i saw it doesn’t sound like the regular camrock, but if i am wrong there please correct me! Cheers.

On the Basic board, will the Camrock be available in all sizes or just one like on last year’s model (162 I think it was)? Just I’ll be goign for one of the shorter lengths but want Camrock.

Thanks!

@Pete,

Does it say “Made In Switzerland” or “Engineered In Switzerland” those are two different things. Apple Products are “Designed In California” , but all of them are made in China.
