Hi All,
Previously known as sierra snowboards(now TRUSNOW), their new company, Thrive snowboards is having free int'l shipping for their snowboards/gear when spending over $500 usd, which can be quite a saving on top of how overpriced big name boards can be here, their renegade board seems to be getting good reviews, i haven't tried their new Thrives, but their old sierra boards were pretty tough and a great choice for semi newbies to the sport, with their only con with their old sierra snowboards was a weak top sheet.
Some reviews here:

Also their boards i believe are made in the same factory as NITRO boards from further investigation.
**Note that to try to keep the order under $1000AUD value to not attract GST etc, i got caught out doing a group buy last time i ordered from when they were still Sierra Snowboards.
Hope this makes someone have a better winter season, and if anyone gives these guys a go or has a renegade that they can review, let me know in the comments if they are any good, very tempted to get one for myself and the missus :)
WOW, I was a big fan of Sierra, bought loads of stuff from them, refuse to even look at TruSnow. I received this email earlier in the week but didn't know it was the same guys.
