there's more than just the name difference

basically travis rice isn't a jibber - and his board reflects that

the t-rice is a stiff board bro, Better suited for backcountry booters more than anything. If you're looking to jib try the skate banana or the GNU STreet, or romes artifact. If you're only deciding between those two the agent is softer than the TR.

Thankfully no, I was going through a psychotic episode at one point where I was thinking of working at silver. Why do you ask?.

I had a pass there this winter. I'm not sure if i'll be getting one again next year. They took way too long to get the park going this year. But, their passes are cheap so i'll probably be back again next winter.

Yeaaaa that and they were closed two days of the midweek, they did that after I had already bought my midweek pass. So they pretty much annoyed me enough not to buy a pass there ever again. I already got my sunday thru friday pass to schweitzer, Considering the price and the amount of days I can actually go compared to silver it's actually really cheap. Plus I don't have to worry about their park sucking.

so... you're basically looking for a jib board that can do big kickers and backcountry?

I use my Banana all-mountain and rarely see the need to switch up my quiver often because it's so versatile.  All that and it's fun to boot.  

I love it long time.

I used my Agent for backcountry lines and kickers. It works fine. Even my Artifact can ride pow. It's actually a lot of fun riding pow with a jib board.

they agent is really good dude, ive ridden it for a season and a half! jibbing around on piste, pressing etc its amazing, and hitting the big kickers in the park it really holds up!  the only thing i would but the board down on is its pop, you have to really work the board to get some hight! but with all that said its a great board, pricy tho!  im going to change this season for probally a k2 darkstar/parkstar or skate banana or something like that, have to wait to se what 2010 brings, i think you would be best to hold out and see what gets brought out!"
