They are but I’m out of town until mid February. I’ll msg you then. If you’re still interested.

Edit: I’ve dropped the price to $250. I have a new pair of F2 Titanium bindings that have never been mounted. Included are four unopened packs of lifts and canting wedges. Plus a handful of extra, unpackaged wedges, screws, t-nut and screw package, and two new toe blocks for Deeluxe boots. I believe it amounts to $100+ worth of extras. Everything you see in the photo. I am in the USA for the winter and would like to ship domestically. USD$250 plus shipping

I can ship to Calgary if you don’t mind paying the $10-15 for postage. PM me your address.

Yes they are. Not very thick though. Maybe 1/4 inch.

Not getting much interest in the main classifieds. Garbage day is Tuesday. If anyone wants any of this, it’s free. I’ll ship if you really, really insist. Edit: F2 wedges spoken for

Better photo. - 3 Intec heels, one with broken pin (for parts). - Intec cables - Intec handles - Some Snopro parts - TD1 bumper - rotating cant disc - other stuff F2 shins are taken

Stuff is free for pickup. Toronto area.

He has Salomon Dialogues, size 31. I'll leave him at 21/12 for now and see how it goes. He is a skier.

Got a friend with flipper feet - size 12. He bought a Prior MFR 168W with 270mm waist. It's his first snowboard other than rentals and he's not sure what angles to run. I run 21/9 so I set him up at 21/12 and the rear foot overhangs like crazy. What would be the max, practical angles he could run without limiting his progression. He's not interested in park or riding switch. And yes, I tried to talk him into alpine but he's not having any of it.

Quite a well researched, well written article about the past, present and future of snowboard boots. https://gearpatrol.com/2019/11/15/snowboard-boots-history/

Burton rules the roost at NorAm and World Cup SBX races. The reason? Parts availability and rider support. Call up the Rider Hotline and they'll express ship you replacement parts usually at no charge. Break or lose a part in Kazakhstan or Portillo? No problem. The local shop will have the part. IMO, soft boot bindings have to be just good enough. There's nothing magical about one brand to the next.

T 177 VSR M 011 APEX1-6.7+6

177 VSR 20 wide Mid sidecut ( approx 13m)

13m sidecut, I was 185lbs when Bruce built this.

I really have to clear out snowboard gear. I'm getting old, have a basement full of gear and hardly use the stuff anymore. When I die, my wife will probably give it all away. So here's a few boards. I'll post more stuff over the coming weeks. All my gear is lightly used. I'm the snowboarding equivalent of the little old lady who only drove to the grocery store. All prices USD plus shipping. Pickup welcome in Toronto. 2015 Yes Ghost TDF 159. Traditional camber, directional freeride. Still in plastic. $200.00 Kessler 180 Custom World Cup stock. 19.5cm waist, not sure of sidecut but made for World Cup GS courses. Apex (UPM) and 4x4 inserts. Formerly Caroline Calve's board. $500.00 Coiler 177 VSR, 20cm waist, Apex (UPM), 4x4 and extra tail insert for a GoPro. Custom Apex topsheet. Very lightly used, never ground. $400.00 I shot this video using that insert:

You can see that the mounts screw into the 4x4 holes but the plate axles are pushed out towards the nose and tail. We had to be careful about insert placement. As you move out, as lowrider states, you encounter problems with not enough board thickness for a strong mount. Allflex required inserts even further out which not only created problems with board thickness but also created a handy stress riser where the board would often fold. When an Allflex compatible board fails, it folds on a straight line across the front inserts.

To set the record straight, the term UPM was proposed to me by Fin and Sean after we released our plate to the public. I declined since I didn't feel it was a universal at all. And, to be honest, the insert pattern was only a slight modification on the Hangl design. Since the entire plate system was literally wrapped in duct tape and secrecy prior to the Olympics, I highly doubt that the term UPM or ASIP existed prior to the 2010 Games. Benji's plate was indeed the inspiration for the Apex project. The Canadian team wanted a plate that would deliver the benefits of Karl's isolation plate but be actually ride-able by humans and not just Austrian cyborgs. SG used the 4x4 pattern to mount their plates. In conversations with Sigi, he was adamant in retaining the 4x4 inserts. This was clearly a mistake in our opinion since the axle positions were too far inboard. Your foot would roll forward using the axle as a fulcrum, lifting the centre of the plate. SG tried to address this with posts and bumpers under the nose of the plate and by making the plate thick and stiff. Other 4x4 mounted plates had similar issues. All water under the bridge but I thought I would settle the facts.

It's no big deal. I can understand why Bomber and Donek didn't want to use the ASIP name. The only thing that bugs me is that they could have come up with their own drawing instead of cutting and pasting their made-up name on mine. I rejected UPM because there's nothing "universal" about it!

That's actually Apex's drawing that we distributed to all snowboard manufacturers back in 2010 when our V1 was released to the general public. We called it the ASIP (Apex Standard Insert Pattern). UPM was a term invented by the third parties. Not all ASIP compatible boards conform to those dimensions. A lot of manufacturers (I'm looking at you Kessler), drifted from them as they experimented or customised for individual racers.
