 Poster: A snowHead
|
Just impulse-bought a pair of 2008 Burton C60s from ebay. Brand new £140.
Anyone had any experience of them?
I'm on Missions at the mo, is the aggression of the C60s going to kill me?
I figured it was worth the risk as I reckon I'll probably be able to sell them for similar even 2nd hand.

Great bindings and no they wont kill you. The response will, if anything, sharpen your inputs and make you safer.
That's a good price. The 2010 model is close to £400.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Will see how much I can get for my Missions now!

i use c60's from about 2007
great bindings,very stiff but great response and gives you soo much control flat lining
i just bougfht the latest cap straps as my new boots didnt fit the old ones that good
the only problem with mine is every time i travel i have to remove the highbacks as the stick too far over the edhe and i dont want some baggage handler breaking them

it's not only C60s you have to take the highbacks off for travelling - i have to spin my Missions too.

C60s aren't that difficult to ride as they're not as stiff as the beefy freeride stuff (SPX90, Jones, R8, etc). The carbon on the highback is weak and breaks when impacted so watch out for the low chairlifts.

Grill, don't see you here often.
Everyone I know with C60s has had them a couple of years. No one has broken anything. A chair lift with break off any high back.

It's not so much the highbac that's the problem, but the exposed carbon. The old P1 Carbon and Ride Migs and Teams had the same problem.
