Benham Custom Snowboards

I found this wakeboard in  a local boardshop for a great deal, thanks Hiddenwave! It has TONS of rocker and no fins. It 144cm long and 15.5" wide at the waist! The board is mostly wood core and is super stiff. I took 3" out of the tail, drilled and epoxied in a couple of inserts to fit my snowboard bindings and cut the swallow-tail in.

This is the most fun I have ever had on a snowboard. Ever. My first run was down from 7th Heaven up at Stevens Pass and it was awesome. Its really stable and fast, and yes its very "surfy" feeling. Big slashy turns! No offense "snowboarding industry" but you should really still make something like this, my 2010 Burton Custom 165cm wide is now on Craigslist.
