After a year of design and several prototypes, I am very excited to announce the group buy for the Teton 78! The goal for this board was a classic-style top mount with a unique layout. While it took a lot of trial and error, I have finally arrived at something I am comfortable sharing with you! Growing up around near Grand Teton National Park, I took inspiration from the Grand Teton mountain range - featured on the weight. Thank you all for the interest and help in the discord to bring this project to life, I am really excited to get this board into your hands. I am very happy with how it turned out, and I hope you will be too! For more info, visit: mountainmechdesigns.com
