Hey Slapos...hope all is well! I'd love to hear more about these S5's you mentioned. Might have already been discussed, but new to me as I've been absent for a while. The write-up, translated, on the Korean site reads like a novel. Good fit, stiff, soft, etc? Randy Kight

Thanks...yes, I tried the obvious...no returned call...so I was wondering if others bought from other sources. The more I contemplate, I'd prob be more interested in that X plate...

Ever since I started that thread last year about Gray snowboards, I've really wanted one. I love that shape! So, I'd most likely spring for a shorter Type R Ti of some sort if the "process" you mentioned is pretty straight forward. Very interested in hearing your honest opinion on how she rides/turns.

Happy New Year everyone. Hope all you guys are doing well. I've not been active on here since last spring until just recent and trying to catch up with all the latest. Although we're not having a great season (70 some degrees today), I'm interested in picking back up on a few things where I had left off last spring, this topic being one. I'm interested in giving these a shot, as I've always got crappy conditions to deal with. If me asking the following question is against the rules in some form or fashion, my apologies...but what are some recommendations on where to purchase? I thought @Jack M was starting a review of plates in general as of last season, but I cannot recall for sure. I know @daveo has a couple of reviews out there...Not looking to get in over my head...no racing, just some added comfort and performance if possible. Randy

Thanks Wiscorider. Boots are in route to Joe. Hope you enjoy Joe.

Apologies for putting pics up late. If interested, just let me know.

Purchased these for my son a few weeks ago, but they don't fit. In box, brand new. Liner is the standard Deeluxe liner with tongue. To expensive to send back, so willing to sell to my hard boot brothers/sisters for a pretty good deal...if you're interested in this style of boot. I'll get some pics up shortly, but again, all in box they came in...only one has been tried on. 350, but shipping not included.

@Puhutes, E-Shell?

@pauleleven I’m curious about your 30 degree remark...Are you suggesting soft boot riders should not ride angles 30 degrees or more? @Puhutes, Cannot thank you enough for answering all the questions I’ve thrown at you lately. Randy

Dammit! My apologies to all. I've ridden fences before, but I've been riding this one for so long I have splinters in my a**. I've hesitated as I've almost pulled the trigger on a pair of Mt. Slopes...several times now. Trying to justify all of this...and not sure when Bruce will make that call about my specifics.

So Jack...your latest thoughts? Donek AF still easiest to benefit from vs the others, or...?

Thanks Dave! Pm was above and beyond as well...as usual!

When I loosen my BTS, the block comes off the boot when flexing back and forth. This goes away when tightening upper and lower springs...I would assume this method is much more efficient. I think overall the design of Roberto's system is better...in my opinion.

Can any of you Zip Fit guys tell me if Zip Fit liners only come in "whole" sizes, which was explained to me as 26.5, 27.5, etc.? If I was to go this route, I would assume I would need what I've always used in other liners, and that would be a 27.0. Current boot shells max out at 27.5, but are marketed as 27.0 (Raichle/Deeluxe). And...if anyone can recommend a good place to buy, this would also be helpful.

No drilling for UPZ, but for Deeluxe, you drill a small hole to ensure the block is tight against the shell.
