I'm 5'8" and 160 Lbs with a size 8.5 boot and I've been riding the X8 155 and this board rocks. The last three seasons I've had Burton Uninc boards from size 158, 156, and 152. The X8 is softer and more playful, smoother on rails/jibs, and fun to jump. It carves well on high speed groomers, but not as well as the Uninc, because it is softer. Oh, and ICS is awesome, better stance options, and more cushin' on those landings! Great board!

EST gives riders better board feel, which is awesome on rails/jibs. It also provides a new level of comfort. If you plan on buying a Burton Board with ICS, get these.

These gloves look awesome, great colors that pop! I've gotten several, "cool gloves," from other shreds while waiting to drop. While they are cool, the leather is slick and soft. So the colors on the fingers just fall off, and fall off the tips quickly. The leather is also slick, so the grip is not kung-fu like... I didn't buy these for the quality, and if you're looking at these you're not either. The back (what everyone sees) still looks rad, and so will you with these.
