Both Lib Tech boards, both Banana tech and magnetraction.
 
apparently the trs is a little stiffer than the banana, but what are the noticable differences between the two when riding?
 
I'm sure that at higher speed the trs would be better because it's stiffer, and on big landings in theory it should be better?
 
But what about park, what about pow (very important), what about groomers, edge to edge control?.  Which would you rather have as a board that "can do it all"?
 
has anyone tested both, or anything else comparable?

Etiquette? Is that some sort of toilet paper?

Hey Bro i just got a Trice 159 trs,mtx 2010 havent had a run on it yet.From what im hearing man they arnt even going to stock cambered boards in shops next year so you may as well make the transition. Camber boards are the eqivelent of riding with hardplates.Snowboarding has just stepped up another level new era :)..
 
Id be keen to hear from anyone who has taken one of these for a  run or 2.
 
Its going to be a sic southern hemishpere. :)
 
Peace out

skate banana has a faster base, trs has a bit more snap. I rode the trs btx 59 everywhere this year and was pretty happy, good float in all but the deepest snow but still worked for jibbing around and whatnot...great all-around ride.
