The Baltic Bircher by Crokinole Canada - Large Traditional Crokinole Board Game Set

The Baltic Bircher crokinole board is the style of board that many Canadians grew up playing on and making lots of great memories while doing so. It is large and accomodating for 2-4 players. The octagon shape is very traditional to Canada and the cherry rails on this board are aesthetically appealing.

This particular board was designed by a craftsman named Tom who produced many of the boards for Crokinole Canada. Tom was so busy making these boards that he had to ask Crokinole Canada to find a larger maker who would be able to handle the volume. From there, Crokinole Canada worked with Woodland Horizon to make further refinements such as the cherry rail, UV printed lines, and latex covered brass posts. Since then, the board has moved to yet another maker where the birch surface was replaced with a smoother and higher quality maple mdf surface. The base is still made of birch.

The Baltic Bircher meets all the needs for a family that doesn't need a tournament level board yet wants something large and beautiful that will last for generations to come.
