FedEx is used for shipping to the 805. Have had about 4 shipped to me. The price wasn't bad. Zero issues/dings to deal with.

That said, there was a $#!+ ton of extra foam they use for packing that I had to deal with. Glad they used it to pack in the board, but I felt like I could've DanMann glued it all together and made a second board.

I've had 3 boards with minor dings from XTR. Those cutoffs shift and leave exposed rails for damage to occur. At $15, I dont know why more companies dont used the flexi hexi wraps. Varial did on one of my shipments. I usually keep a couple around for when I ship out.

You used flexi on one board I bought from you and I was impressed with it. I might use it for travel packing too, it seems solid.

I get them from surfdome. $15 gets you 2. I just use 1 around the middle. Sooo much easier and quicker (and environmentally friendlier) than wrapping in bubble wrap and foam
Great idea. I just unboxed my Phantom from Varial. Bummer how much plastic wrap, bubble wrap, foam wrap, and tape there was. Boar was perfect tho.

Seems like Pyzel's moving faster than Album's. Looking at the last status update my buddy leap frogged me with his Pyzel order he put in a few weeks after me.....bastard.
