Rossignol Mini 121

I got to try out my boyfriend's Rossignol Mini 121cm and oh my god. Hahahahahahahaha. This board is so WEE! It definitely gets a lot of attention, mostly from people asking, "What the hell is that?"

The Mini next to my 144cm K2 Duchess. Mine's bigger. GIGGITY!

Mountain: Copper
Weather: Blue skies, sunny, not a cloud in the sky, warm
Snow: Groomed

Bindings: Ride BETA MVMNT, the ones with the gel mesh toe straps thingys
Boots: 32 Lashed womens size 7

I can't stop laughing at this damn board! It's so small and looks ridiculous! This board is pretty heavy for it's miniature size and is also really wide. You can notice the width in the above picture.

Park: This board is really fun in the park, and I liked jibbing with it. It's pretty lively and my boyfriend mentioned that he found it easier to frontside boardslide on the Mini than the Horrorscope. However, the board isn't very poppy but it does have some pop. It's also stiff as a brick and impossible to press. Pressing isn't happening.

I took this board off the jumps and I was surprised that it did pretty well in that area. Landing it wasn't a problem even though it was really small. While on the subject of it being small, you can totally do nose grabs and tail grabs at the same time!!!!!

Mountain: When riding around on the groomers on this board, the Mini was pretty stable. As for turning, oh my god. This board is sooo wide and stiff that it was sometimes hurting my thighs when turning hard. Either it's too wide or I have girly legs. My thunder thighs can't handle it!! My boyfriend, on the other hand, said that he loved it for everything, he didn't have problems cruising around on it and especially loved it in the park. He did say that it did hurt his thighs a little bit when he turned hard.

In my opinion, I'd say that this board would be ideal for someone who does straight up rails/boxes only, with the occasional small jump. This board would also be awesome for Ruby Hills Ral Yard, if that damn place ever opens this year!!!
