Will do

Interesting to see Terje endorse it. Also interesting to see Terje using Now O-drives since he is no longer with the big B. The combination of the plate and skatetech seems counter productive to me but I am not an engineer so might be pretty effective.

Just an observation, but I find it interesting that Jeremy (and a few other pros) often reference stance angles that are not possible with current Softboot models…i.e. he says he is running 35* on his front foot which is not possible as his Jones/Now bindings work in three degree increments so it has to be 33 or 36.

Hope to be there this coming weekend as well…in DC for work right now.

Will be joining you all soon. cheers

No ride report? Heard there were a lot of ski race teams there over the weekend.

@rjnakata Not mine but here are a set https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2454375438036447/

JayseyJayAnderson, Virus, Bomber by Gumbo, and Kessler still make them. I have a set of the Apex Gecko Stealths, two pairs of Donek Risers, and a pair of the JayseyJay risers. I actually like the feel of the JJAs the best as the Gecko’s and the Donek’s feel like they isolate me too much and I want risers not isolation plates. I love the Bombers for the cant and lift but hate the weight. hope that helps

Thanks @Jack M. Love the quality that Winterstick is producing and I rode a TB172 once as well, so thought a longer one would be tons of fun

I did not get to ride them, but I got to see and try the Supermatic’s at a shop and it is a neat concept…but heavy and a lot of parts, so it will be interesting to see how they stack up after a year of use/abuse in all types of snow conditions. the build is very beefy and probably over built for most riders (except you Lance as I know how hard you are on gear ). For now I will stick with my Ion/StepOn X and my Driver X/Union Atlas Pro setups as they both have pluses and minuses. cheers sandy

Those are G-style speed plates. Japanese carve company https://item.rakuten.co.jp/auc-breakout/speedplate-r/

Prices? specifically on the MADD SBX Boardercross 168 ?

I have used quite a few different brands (poc, dainese, fox, Troy Lee design) and just recently got a new set from Xion and am really liking their stuff as it is super low profile and fits great. Customer service was awesome and product comes direct via DHL. https://www.xionpg.com/

Thanks @big mario still sore but should be able to ride again this weekend

No review from last week? sorry I missed it.
