I have a hint for all you "foamy-riding-guys" !!

To extend the life of your foam board use edge protection which is used in the car industry ! (see pictures above!)

It's available in different sizes and colors. I use the 2mm version in black for my PPS.

So you don't need to handle your board like a raw egg ! :-)

The GS Hybrid is a killer board. It's my do-everything stick. I have used it for everything from super-G and slalomcross to TS. I drilled another set of holes in the rear for the tight stuff. Only for really tight stuff will I sometimes go to a deck with a smaller wheelbase. I'd like to pick up a 36" for some courses, but in general the GS/hybrid can take anything you can throw at it. If I could only have one slalom board the GS/hybrid would be it.

I put my GS Hybrid back together this weekend and rode it hard. I love that board. I've put on some pounds since I bought it so it seems a little flexy but I swear I'm taking those pounds back off so no worries.

Eddy, I hope all is well and we're looking forward to seeing some of y'all on Jan. 9th for the Madlands Mayhem. If not then soon I hope.

PPS GS Hybrid

Post by Eddy Martinez » Sat Jan 01, 2005 1:31 am

I got a PPS GS Hybrid for Christmas. The board is light weight,perfect flex for my 200 lb body. I went with the Tiger Stripes design. The board will be put through its paces this weekend. I saw alot of them at the Worlds this year. Any comments from PPS GS Hybrid riders?. Eddy Texas Outlaws
