The Premier is an awesome board, not the lighest but damn it's fun to go fast with and just carve up the hill.  The Titan is definitely stiffer and more bombable...haha if that's a word.  The only Never Summer i dislike is the System...boo.

I got my buddy to pro form it for me. I floated him a few bucks and that was what the final price. I almost bought the had this set up.
07 Burton Baron ES
07 Burton Cartels
06 Burton Freestyle binding for $640-$680. Shay totally took a shit on that idea and thats how I came up with the ride.

Yeah you're a moron aren't you?  Atomic snowboards and atomic ski's are 2 seperate parts of a company.  Let alone any company that makes a snowboard is a snowboard company.

well done Pipegrom69.  Looks like a killer combo.  By the way I stuck with the Alibi.  I really could not be happier.

It's just sort of an effort to keep moronic threads like this from spreading.
 
 
well actually i wouldnt close at these thread . buyers have sometimes a 30 day return policy or exchange etc.. so if the guy bought a crap and or a board not suitable for his type of riding .. than he can exchange it or get refund .
 
Some people buy  thinking they made the right choice , come here after and realize they could have grab better for the same price .
 
I.e: the guy who bought 2200 $ of burton stuff at the same place the same day from a big sport shop  .. the stuff was already bought but he return it . i dont know how he ended up finally ,but it cost him like 1300 $ if i rememeber well and had high end stuff .
 
 
so i wouldnt suggest to close those thread .. they still can be useful for people .
 
Thats just my opinion .
 
 
 
ill do my part :
 
board   -Rome artifact 156 2006
binding -Technine MFM PRO 2007
boot     -32 Lashed 2006

i actually think it would be more helpful in this case if the person who posts actually includes their riding style, as well as height/weight/shoe size etc. 

that way, if some kid buys a 159 who's 110 lbs, we can steer him in the right direction....


anyway, here's mine so far:

5'7, 150-155 lbs, size 9.5 boot

70/30 freeride/park


burton motion 152  01/02
burton drivers 02/03
burton p1 hd's   02/03

just bought:

atomic alibi 156  06/07

trying to decide on bindings/boots.  most likely will be keeping my boots for this season.

07 Rome Machine 157 - $390
07 Rome 390s - $203
06 ThirtyTwo Lashed - $75

Boots are brown and don't really match but considering the amount I saved I really don't care :D

I have an option freeplus 159 with rome targas (originally had burton missions but they are useless with this board-no where near stiff enough) and DC Judge Boots. I am 63kg (around 140lb) which is around 5kgs under the recommended minimum for the board. After some interesting times learning on the board I'm finally feelling comfortable on it (only spent a total of 19 days on the slopes...the problem with living in Australia). Do you guys reckon I should get a shorter (or one more suitable to my weight) board and if I do will I notice a big difference? I don't get any gear demoing opportunities and i mainly ride freeride with the occasional mess around in the park.
