So many words. I did not read. Steeper terrain means you have to finish your turn. If you don't hard enough that you start slowing down (uphill finish) you will gain speed. It's really that simple. If you are not skidding or slarving, you must change turn shape to slow. "You carve, You carve, You carve...no slide"

Interested in all the Burners. Didn't see a 197 in there. You holding out on me? I'll try my old contact for you.

Hey...doesn't look like I responded (maybe sent a PM) but yes I love, love, love that Supermodel. Been careful with it to not fold the nose and it has been my favorite all mountain board the last couple of years. Riding the pine this winter....13 days out from a total hip replace. Getting stronger every day. Seeing this actually reminded me of a girl that I met years ago in the lift line. Looked quite a lot like Victoria. She came up to me and said 'Can I ride with you? Every time I see you, you're covered in powder and have a big smile on your face.' I suggested it was just because I always stuffed my head in the snow, but she didn't buy it. We ended riding quite a bit together that winter. I was dating a fine lady and I don't play, but still felt good to have a goddess like creature want to hang out with you even if it's to share your pow with them.

Here in SV? When are you coming?

Couldn't disagree more. The right step is awesome. I had 55 days last year plus Turner for Montucky...rode soft boots one day. The rest was SI and we had a ton of snow here. Many carving days but at least 25 to 30 days of pow. Love it.

Sale fell thru - sorry I forgot to update. Bad exchange rate with CDN $ and high shipping to Eastern Canada. Might be the same for you.

Hey Chris as you know I've been rocking the SI for a few years now. TD3 SI Sidewinder for powder and been loving it. Not sure how the F2 does it, but it is imperative for me to get visual confirmation of both pins on the heel are engaged by looking down. I had a pair of Intec? brand heels that did not provide this line of sight visual and I quit using them because of it. Not using mine this winter if you want to try the TD3. It seems like they might be heavier and more height from the board but I love mine. Cheers buddy.

From what I hear, snow conditions are somewhere between marginal and terrifying. Only one run off the top of the mountain is open right now. That doesn't mean that there won't be some good turns here or there. I am gimped up so can't report personally just the feedback I'm hearing. One run open on Warm Springs side, two on River Run side and Broadway top to bottom is the only thing on Seattle Ridge. So.....if I had not been here I would wait. At least there appears to be a change in the weather pattern the next ten days.

I have a sale pending. Will post as sold once funds are received. Thx

Looking really good.

I have tried off and on for months now. Nothing. Not sure what happened there.

I loved the design of these boots so much, and still do, but couldn't get them to fit. Tried wearing them in the living room and could never get past 15 minutes. Even had a custom liner fitted to them. Nothing was ground or stretched as I never rode in them, so never created a hot spot. So if you know these boots and they work for your foot shape, here you go. Purchased in 2020...but it seems to be still the current model. Anthracite Gray. Looking to get $500 plus shipping. As brand new from a retailer the cheapest I could find currently was $600. I paid over that for these. Thanks for looking. Photos will try to upload from phone.

Do you have the original lock down mechanism that the BTS replaced?

So let me get this straight. Those boots with BTS and Fintech are $200 plus shipping? Not even my size and thinking of getting them for BTS and heels.
