So I just bought a used 06/07 152 "el sined" sined snowboard and am wondering about its camber and flex. It hasn't been used much and it's a little on the stiff side, but the guy said it's because it needs to be broken in. And it doesn't have a whole lot of camber. So I'm wondering, does it really only need to be broken in? Does flexibility come with use?

Yes it was a person to person and maybe this guy was shady. So was the board bad to begin with? or did he take the flex out of it in a season? It's not some piece of wood now, it does have camber. But I guess I won't be expecting it gain flexibility over time, but does some stiffness mean I'm screwed?

Never buy anything from that shop again.

Boards definately do not need to be 'broken in'. if this was a private sale, you're stuffed. If it was a shop, go back get a refund and use a reputable dealer in future.
