  1. The MK goes to eleven I don't find the nose too soft at all. Give the nose some attention and it hooks beautifully. I'm 185 or so before any gear. It's been my go too board for a few seasons now.
  2. Agreed I've gotten a lot more questions recently. I enjoy engaging in people's curiosity. If they don't know what to call it or give the equipment an incorrect name I don't really care. I crack a few jokes and we talk on the lift ride up. Plastic snowboard boots always seems to surprise people.
  3. Really? How is a thing? Damn kids Ha! I ate em. Had to tighten the belt a bit during covid.
  4. Yelled to me from the lift, "you suck!". It was my strongest run of the day. I laughed
  5. Gotcha, I never rode stock liners in my upz. I went straight to my intuitions
  6. I look for smooth fore and aft movement with stiff lateral flex. What boots are people riding that flex laterally?
  7. Still have the virus? I will take it if you do.
  8. I ride alone 99% of the time. I generally strike up a conversation with whoever I'm on the lift with. After a short conversation, you could offer a stranger a couple bucks to follow you for one run with your own cellphone or gopro. Like Beckman said you dont need an hour of footage.
  9. I would like to once again highlight this very important post.
  10. I rode unlocked on a few sets of boots (all raichle, deeluxe) for 10+ years. I loved it. Went back to try locked every so often and did not like it. Then I put on bts for a while, didn't make a big difference to me in riding but it did strengthen the boot setup. I am on now on upz with softer black tongues and the dgss setup which I love. Lots of smooth flex. I run higher angles which gives me great fore and after mobility but plenty firm laterally. I have a spare bts I can mail you. Try it out, see if you like it, send it back when you're done. PM me if you're interested
  11. Glad this board is going to the right person. Be well karma board.
  12. Well that sucks. What a crappy situation this whole thing turned into. What the hell is going on in Aspen? https://www.aspentimes.com/news/cops-former-city-councilman-stole-2-4-million-from-aspen-skiing-co/
