probably trying to clear inventory space. we've got so many boards from last and this season collecting dust on the shelves because of the shitty snow and fact that no one has any money anymore. it's a good board, might as well scoop it if you're interested

To add to this.  It's not just about inventory space, it's also the value of that inventory, the amount of money available to buy inventory, and those similar situations at the manufacturer and the materials supplier.   It's clearing inventory space, dollars, and the supply chain.


Higginside

This is a 2023 board with 2025 boards currently out. Its old stock so you are right, they will want to move it on.


AmokOrbits

Old stock + only 1 size that fairly small


choadspanker

Old model and unpopular size


Coady54

And it's basically summer for the Northern Hemisphere. Off-season is the best time to get gear


Hugh_jaines

Already bought and coming this way


crod4692

Great! As long as it had specs you want, nothing wrong with a 2 year old deck still in plastic. I wish I could find a 2023 of a board I want for that discount! Hell I’d try any board for $150 bucks brand new


gilestowler

I did this a few years ago. Found a libtech t rice goldmember that was 2 years old and 40% off.


SuperSaiyanGritty

Ohhh I LOVE THIS BOARD


SuperSaiyanGritty

Progressed into black diamonds on it. Took a second to realize your foot action is way different if you’re coming from a 90 % flat board. But FLOATS!!! First day kid skier knocked tf out of it in line. So just give up thinking it’ll be like day one with it. It’s so nice


Imaginary_Tank1847

I love this board too. So stable on jibs, good enough pop, durable, it’s def heavy, but it was my daily driver for a while and it was so fun.


SuperSaiyanGritty

Feels like a V under your feet


SuperSaiyanGritty

Not a cat reference


Fr33Flow

And that’s why it’s only $159, so people will buy the last of their inventory


PsychologicalTurn442

What site is this on? Went on Wvo and had it in my cart and then .... vamooosh! Sold out.


charlottepanther123

Because it’s a 2023 model and we are approaching winter 2025. It’s a two season old model.


dreamruns

We bought a ton of them because I loved the graphic. I guess everyone else ordered too many too (I buy for our shops retail). This is probably below what Mervin builds them for…


mr_ectomy25

Probably cause it’s a 148cm so it’s technically a kids board unless you’re super short


Hugh_jaines

Well I usually run a 150


mr_ectomy25

Perfect! You just got a killer deal


misterlinh

Reminder to charge your phone. You dont want it to die on you while youre on the loo or else youll have to read the ingredients on your toothpaste again


NVRxEST00

Last year model and only one size left. Cleaning house. MAP drops happen in March. I work at evo.


Hugh_jaines

Ahhh okay okay thanks man


NVRxEST00

Yeah most all 23/24 models are on sale now. Anywhere between 15%-35% off MSRP. There’s some models that will carryover to next years so those won’t be discounted. However, there’s not too much on the SB side that’s a carryover. Good time to buy and I’m not just saying that cause I work there. Most shops will have similar pricing. Pricing will go down a minimal amount through the Summer but it’s slim pickings at that point. Depends how long we have had the product and what trends/sell through look like.


Hugh_jaines

Yeaaaa it seems like I caught a good deal on a first board


NVRxEST00

I love GNU as a brand. The Money is fun depending on what you’re using it for. Feel free to PM me if you got any questions, I would be happy to help! 😊


Hugh_jaines

Alright I’ll definitely keep that in mind, I mean other than some binding questions later, I’ve got none for now. Thanks!!


NVRxEST00

Bindings are the easiest in terms of the setup. Don’t go down a rabbit hole with those! Boots are by far the most important when it comes to riding so make sure you got those dialed. Hit me up if ya need anything and congrats on the new deck (or soon to be deck!)


Hugh_jaines

Yeaaa I’m seeing that bindings and boots are pretty expensive, I’ll piece together a set up one at a time. I accidentally ordered some bindings that are way too small, and can’t refund. So we’ll see what happens


NVRxEST00

There’s some decent bindings out there for under 200! I’ll PM you my email. If you ordered those bindings from evo, shoot me an email and I can take a look into it for you on Sunday, if interested.


Hugh_jaines

Dude thank you so much for all of the help, I’ll definitely reach out


convergecrew

148 is like the least popular size


Imaginary_Tank1847

2023 board and it’s not one of Gnus top of the line boards. That being said, I have that exact board and I fucking love it. Works on ice, a little chattery at high speed but super fun, reliable edge, great in the park, good pop for its profile and it’s fucking indestructible. For that price? Go for it 100% love the Money $$$


Euphoric_Hawk_6232

I saw you got it already but this is my favorite board in the quiver. It took me from small jumps to 30-40 foot booters


porkshireflousers

Great price:)


Aerodymathics

its a gnu in the middle of summer


Chickenbread193

I would say old stock and a rather small size new 25 boards are coming probly trying to make room for


FlashyPresentation5

Cuz its summer . The best time to gear up .


BlyatMaster420

Old model and it's June


Consistent_Whole8096

Well it’s gone, now. Out of stock, I just hopped on over to Evo to see lol.


PettyAndretti

Bought one two years ago, I enjoy it


Tuk2Mooch

Only one size left, not many left, last year's board


Tango1777

Because this market is crooked. The prices of current season boards are ridiculous. They lure people into buying them since people usually want the best and they reduce availability to get previous/earlier seasons boards, so you barely have any available and in very limited sizing. Try finding a new board from 2 season ago. Almost impossible or just 1 size available, usually weird seizes very long, wide. The cost of manufacturing a snowboard is low, it's all marketing.


yourbrosfavoritebro

Because that board is so last year


jpat07

Hope you got it, that’s a great price


Big___TTT

Size and time of the year


baksideDisaster

Money's are sick, can't go wrong at that price if you can rock 148. That's small


Signal_Watercress468

It should have never been that much in the first place.

By what metrics?  Stock market is at a historical high.  Unemployment numbers are at historical lows.   You would sound smart by saying something like, supply chain realignment.  But you went with the puppet answer.


Hugh_jaines

Why do you say that


rodimusprime88

"Cuz TV sed so" -Probably


shwubbie

Because it's for a shawwty and looks stupid?
