  1. Lol, my boots barely fit my bindings as it is, these are 337mm. Thanks though! Was just trying to stay away from changing boots, guess I may not have a choice with my size of boot...
  2. Anyone have UPZ ski din toe/heel adapter install instructions? I’m tempted to buy a set and try them out for my RC12s, but the pics I see on the UPZ site have more holes (different pattern) than my snowboard toe/heel pieces have. So I want to see what the instructions say. My RC12s are either 2018 or 2019. Anyone? Also any real world experience? My kids ski, slowly (and on mellow terrain), so snowboarding with them isn't all that fun (or easy quite frankly). I’d love to be able to jump from board to ski and back through out the day. And they way the UPZ adapter reads I can do that.
  3. maybe some marketing playing into it, with an already pre-planned earlier close date....maybe, but....https://berkshireeast.com/the-resort/blog/statement-on-covid-19 "Berkshire East will close for the season today, Thursday, March 12 at 4pm and Catamount Ski Area will not reopen this weekend. COVID-19 has been discovered in the surrounding hill towns and multiple people are being quarantined"
  4. You've got quite a few on this board from/in Maine: from pure talent, to awesome teachers, to great coaches...I'm sure they will chime in...
  5. So...here is where I landed only using the adjustability of the bindings. I have not cut, grinded nor modified anything. Thoughts on how things look? Any concern on the minimal toe bail thread showing? Any concern with how the heel is engaged? Still might go after long plates. But this might work for the interim.
  6. Thanks! Emailed him a few day’s ago and just now PM’d him. Will call early next week at the number I saw on his site if I don’t hear from him electronically first.
  7. Anyone know if bomber@bomberonline.com email is valid for Walker at Bomber by Gumbo?
  8. Little dremel work, wouldn’t take much...hhhhmmm
  9. Ugh....looks like I have the regular length plates for both sets of my TD3s...and BSL of 332mm. Time to reach out to Bomber/Gumbo...
  10. I'll have to check my other pair of TD3s as well, but I am now thinking the pair I began to fit to my new boots are regular (short) plates.....ugh..... I recall taking note that the inner set of holes were right next to slots for mounting to the cant disk. I know I requested long plates when I ordered them years ago, but since my Head boots fit in them I never questioned that I didn't get long plates...
  11. What do the locals/regulars think for Saturday 1/11? Too much wind? Potential gusts shutting the lifts down? Rain doesn’t look bad and not until mid-afternoon. Worth a chance? My kids only have so many days to get out this year between basketball, volleyball, theater, CCD, Boy Scouts, etc...they can handle some rain, but lots of wind holds with not make the trip worth it. And into VT doesn’t look much better.
  12. I'll take some pics tonight. But all possible adjustments are "maxed" out. Last step is micro-adjusting the toe bail. I am 99% sure I have the long base plates, but if someone has a measurement for the actual length of the long plate, I can double check that against mine.
  13. You guys rock! Thank you all! Quite the write-up @Wolf! Based on where I am, on the threads, I think I am in the "safe" zone...
