  1. Charles. Thanks for the post. I found some boots that were closer to my boy's size. If I knew that he would stick with it I would buy your boots as well as he is growing pretty quickly, but at this point I'm all set. Thanks again, Carlos
  2. Please let me know if you have boots new or used that you may want to sell. Thanks.
  3. Do you still have the 22's and the odd pair 28.5 and 29? I know it's an old post, but just in case. Thnx.
  4. MSWANSON, do you still have these boots? If yes and interested in selling, please e-mail me. If anybody else has boots that are 22 or 22.5 and are looking to sell, please contact me. Thanks, Carlos
  5. Thank you all for taking the time to post a reply. That really helped. Merry X-mas/Happy Holidays and most of all, Happy Carving!! Carlos
  6. I need a new board(s) and was thinking about getting an Axis. Not sure how long I should go or even if this is a wise choice. Some reference: I weigh 195 and 6' tall. I used to ride a Burton Coil 172 and had good fun with it on powder, trees, although it had a bit too much flex and would not hold as well on hard fast carves or icy conditions. I'm now riding a 162 Burton factory prime. It's fine for really tight snappy carves on groomers, but I don't have much fun with it anywhere else. I guess what I'm looking for is something similar to the coil except that I need the board to handle better on fast hard carves and less than perfect conditions (north east/Okemo). When I hit the snow my primary intention is to carve it up, although I don't want to be stuck on groomers all day. Since the axis is stiffer than the Coil, will this resolve the carving issue or should I go to a 177? Will the 177 be too much of a boat? Do I make any sense or am I losing my mind? Any/all opinions/suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks, Carlos
