  1. Look for Roberto Fulcheri in Facebook
  2. No I'm in Europa. 100€ plus shipment
  3. I have a pair of Indy with Palau overlap soft thermo in MP 295 never heated that when modelled fits MP 30
  4. Italy was flooded by Northwave during the golden years, you can buy used for 50usd and even at that time never eard. In any case how my friend Quattroante use to say: every boot has its feet.
  5. http://forums.bomberonline.com/uploads/monthly_2017_01/1ec.JPG.ba714d247f1d9ff7ebbd45097c98c845.JPG I have seen this spring mechanism at the boot of tomek, a great rider from team prime boards/nobile from poland. Seems ti move very well. The Key is the rotating point where the springs are fixed
  6. Never heard about someone punching or gridding a pair of Northwave, in any case injected liners could be the answer.
  7. Queequeg Sorry but Andrej asked me not to publish close up. You now, a lot of special work was made. Eric Yes the first part could be easyer with new tecnology, but after that you have to ride, ride and ride again to find the right way for everything. More than 20 mods for one boot are needed.
  8. At the moment no stepin solution. Getting in is easyer than a normal UPZ, never tried the new thongues. We have tested without the thongue and the spring and you can easly flex back and forward. Different thongues and springs are in project. The high stability of the lower shell hold so well the foot that you can ride with the upper buckles loose
  9. Yes it is Andrej from Sense, it is his new projec. They are working on this in the last five years. They are still on test to get the 100% of what they want.

  11. At the Carvers Days 2017 in Ovindoli we had the luck to ride one prototipe of the Sixt Sense Boots. The feeling is unbelivable, the shell doesn't get deformed at all. Super light. You have just to think to carve and everything goes.
  12. Just another rumor, a bird told me that a famous Canadian bought some shell to work on...
  13. As wrote on Swoard forum I heard rumors about four different teams working on northwave rebirth Puhutes Another swiss team A team from east Europe This are working on plastic boots. The Italian are working on very small production in composite. Also 3d printed ones has been studied but are too expensive. Prices for two of this teams are about 1000€ another team a bit more.
  14. The money problem is a real problem only with new stuff and if you don't know the market. In europe you can get an entry level or advanced level board from Goltes or OES for 350€, a pair of proflex freecarve for €60, all new. Used good boots are available from 50€
  15. In Italy we are working hard on this. One big problem here is that we have a lot of lonely harbooter that loosed passion and interest because they can't find easly stuff and they are tired of carving alone. We printed business card and when we meet a lonely carver we stop him and ask to come with us, to join our forum. This took back a lot of people to hardboots.
  16. Hi I'm looking for a junior hard board for my daughter. 120cm width 18
  17. Eliminator Carbon is a great board on slopes, not usefoul for backcountry. www.carvers.it
  18. I use the Proflex Freecarve with 5,5 mm bails that are almost as F2 Carve RS version for pow and I'm 250 lbs and I have used also on the slopes, and I have used the step in also. Surely they are softer than normal version but I didn't have any issue.
  19. Ciao Sean so for a heavy rider, 110kg, what plate do you suggest for freecarving? Inviato dal mio XT1039 utilizzando Tapatalk
  20. New thongue makes in and out much easyer. Red thongue is almost made of rubber, I think that they will work only for very light riders. Upz inho have only two problems, if you flex alot the buckles will engage. At the back you will have a lot of boot drag Inviato dal mio XT1039 utilizzando Tapatalk
  21. Find somebody to ride with is the best thing.
  22. I have tested almost all the bindings in the market and I weight 115kg and I'm 196cm tall. My boots are MP295 Boots, board and binding should work together. So it doesn't make sense placing stiff bindings with soft boot or soft board. Everything should work together. I have the F2 Carve RS(to tell the truth I have the Proflex Freecarve but they are almost the same) on my backcountry 175 Salomon and they work well. I have TD2 on my SG 180 an 170 I have F2 Race titanium on my astonishing and amazing Coiler Nirvana VSR V-Cam 178/21 Maybe you have to figure out what hard snowboarding you will have
