Scion Snowboard (#54 of 500)
With winter starting to close in, it is getting close to that time to dust off the snowboarding gear and get it ready for the white stuff to fly.
I spent several months tracking down a Scion Snowboard. There isn't much information on them, but from my understanding, they were raffled off in northern California and Colorado during winter of 2005-06. There were only 500 made and each one has a "release series" plaque on it with the individual board's number. This one is number 54. I think it was produced by K2.
I used this board for a year and a half and loved it. I got more into snowboarding and needed a board better suited to my size/skill/etc. This board has been sitting in my garage collecting dust and think I am ready to let this posession go.
It does have the normal wear from the bindings and where my back foot would rest getting off lifts. I did a lot of snowboarding, but very little was in the park. I 50/50'ed a few boxes maybe a dozen times and that was the extent of my park riding. Otherwise, it was just carving down hills. If you want more pictures of the wear or anything specific, let me know.
These boards are pretty rare. It took me about 6 months to track this one down and that was 2 years ago. You almost never see these anymore. Because of the rarity, I am going to ask for $300 shipped. If you think it is too high, you are welcome to go try to find one of these boards for cheaper.

LOL, if they go for 100 shipped, I'll keep it and put it up on my wall as decoration. True, ONE board may go for 155 shipped, but they typically go for over 200 plus shipping. I'd probably be willing to go $200 shipped, but no lower. Any lower than that and I'll just keep it.
The length is 156.
