Louis Ricard SL

[Mig]

Fullbag Skates is proud to introduce Louis Ricard's Pro slalom model.

Louis spent 3 years racing in the amateur ranks with great placings, podium finishes, and out styling everyone on and off the courses. After the Can/Am Open Slalom Championship, where he was THE highest placing amateur, Louis decided to take the leap into the Pro division for the 2009 race season. Fullbag supported is move by letting him design his own model.

His board is as much at ease in the hybrid courses as in the tighter ones. It features a roomy front section to get all the leverage needed and wide wings at the rear foot toes to accentuate the famous Fullbag spoon-tail kick.

Louis Ricard - SL
Lenght: 32.5"
Width: 9.0"
Wheelbase: 19.5" - 20.25" - 21"

Louis's racing quiver: The Death or Glory for GS, and two of his model setup for Hybrid and Tight.


Louis is getting ready for the Canadian Championships next week which will be a prelude to the Worlds in Hood River. He just finished his spring training and will get in full attack mode for the summer starting this week. Fullbag wishes him good luck for the 2009 season, and all the ones to come! But based on the following picture, he doesn't need any...

Nicest guy I had the pleasure of hanging with in Texas, that I could hardly understand what he was saying. (probably best that I didn't know...)

(I can understand Gregory)

Excellent that he got his own board Mr. Big!

Not in the US for the Ricard. You can order it from our website pretty easily. Just click the "Buy now" button, Paypal will take care of the rest. And you don't even need to be a member.

The currency conversion will be done automatically. Right now the Ricard will end up being around $100 USD, shipping included to anywhere in the continental US. We ship via UPS and it should take about 7 business days to get it to Texas.

By the way, Louis won the Canadian Slalom Championship last week in Ottawa on his Pro model. He used it for both Tight and Hybrid where he finished 1st in both races. Fullbag Team pretty much dominated the podiums with Seb Léger finishing 2nd overall (2nd in Tight and 3rd in Hybrid) and Julie Boulanger winning the Women's Division in both races.

Here's a video of Louis and Seb in the Tight finals, by Steve Blouin: (watch it directly in youtube and click the HD button. Much better quality than in the embedded one...)

Louis Ricard Quote of the Week from last month Event in Ste MArie de Beauce

-"Louis Ricard est revenu au motel avec deux filles?"
- " Oui mais il s'est endormi aussi-tot avoir toucher au lit"

Trop drole la photo de Ricard et la blonde...

[GPymp]

...hmmm... I thought that you couldn't enter the CSC in Ottawa without a FullBag underfoot. Or the entry fee was doubled without racing 2 races on a FullBag...??








(Love You Mr. Big)

what is the front truck on the the Death or glory board ?

that is a red baron and the pro model

They look like rads on the front and on the red baron an airflow in the back.

Red Baron? Really? Is it with Death or Glory graphics?
I have the Red Baron, and it doesn`t look like that; it`s red.

I`m not sure about the trucks(so I don`t know why I post here), but aren`t Radikal front trucks often more square shaped(like on the board in the middle)? To me the shape looks more similar to the Virage front, but I don`t think it`s that either.
Maybe Mig can enlighten us when he see this thread?

[blueb]

I'll take a bet on the setups
DOG GS, front Split Gen2 or 3, rear Airflow
LR HS, front Rad, rear Airflow
LR TS, front Bennett, rear Split Gen1

for some reason the 1st pic did not show last night lulz , I was talking about the last video that was posted there was a red baron and the lr in the end and looked like rads/airflow.

I'll take a bet on the setups
DOG GS, front Split Gen2 or 3, rear Airflow
LR HS, front Rad, rear Airflow
LR TS, front Bennett, rear Split Gen1

I think we have a winner!

[AJ]
