  1. The picture above is about half the length of the run, always wanted to come down it in the powder but never timed it right. Years ago it was two resorts, Mt. Holly being a monster ridge. The last couple years they were open they went by one name- Elk Meadows. Last I heard investors were having some water disputes with the locals. Kipp
  2. One of our favorites at Elk Meadows, Route 66 perfect fall line. It's a shame the resort is going private. East of Beaver, Utah. Kipp
  3. Sent an offer to your e-mail, Thanks, Kipp
  4. Make sure you head up to Powder Mountain while you are here, half a dozen of us running around up here. Good snow and no crowds. Kipp
  5. How do you sell a board when you don't answer any questions?
  6. Interested in the Cateks if they are OS2's Thanks, Kipp
  7. Could you send or post close-ups of the split work, and curious about who did the work. Thanks. Kipp P.S. Powder Mountain is sweet right now, don't bring too many of your friends.
  8. I'm interested in the bindings if they are long plate. Thanks
  9. Been Riding An Axis 177 for 2 1/2 years weigh 210 lbs and have only demo'ed the Prior. I found the Prior to be more lively but not as stable while carving, and a little quicker in the tighest of trees. I agree with this statement made by Sean at Donek: "I think the major difference between the Axis and 4X4 is how we weighted the powder vs carving performance. When I designed the Axis, I build a board that could go anywhere, but I looked at the frequency I felt many riders would see hard pack vs powder. I felt that the hardpack won out in most cases. As a result the Axis was designed to be a carving board that can do trees. I think the 4X4 is more of a powder/tree board for carvers. Chris might say it a bit differently, but the flex on the 4X4 is a bit softer than the Axis." Hope this helps and Thor is a great person to work with, looking foward to seeing you on the hill Buell, Kipp
  10. Noah, I have a Nidecker GS 177 that I will sell you for the same price. Can you enable e-mail and I can send pics.

    Tanker on Ebay

    Trying to e-mail Harry at Rad Air too find year of board and can't get past the verification page, am I stupid? Or are they ignoring all e-mails? Thanks, Kipp
  12. I've been riding Palmer 20mm on my Tanker and I love them, if the snow is soft you end up dragging a little too much. Ebay link http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Palmer-PLS-Shock-power-plates-bindings-snowboard_W0QQitemZ120171575063QQihZ002QQcategoryZ21248QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem

    Tanker on Ebay

    Snowed all day here at the house yesterday, hope it keeps up for the season. I'd love to hold onto this tanker, I really like the looks of it. Maybe I'll have Sean build me one someday with the same graphics. Hope you're healed and ready to snowboard, Kipp
  14. and what I don't know, things here at Powder are off to a slow start- finally met up with other hardbooters. Buell and Rebecca are tearing up all fresh stuff, DAMN ! Enjoyed riding with both of you- fun to see someone enjoying the great terrian of Powder Mt. Rollers, steeps and big fluffy creeks. Come up and say HI. Kipp "Isn't fun the best thing to have?"
  15. Been riding with a very thin synthetic for 3 years in my Heads and never get cold feet, keep 'em on the floor up by the heater vent on the ol' Buick on the way up and as long as I don't over crank the buckles my feet are as comfy as can be :rolleyes: See you at Powder Mountain, Kipp Pray for Snow (3-4 feet would be great)
  16. Not that Hot? and Lyle doesn't know about heartache.
  17. Great skiing before the goofy bastard laugh, WOW why don't the grils at Powder Mountain look like that? Kipp http://www.wendychao.com/ski/easter/
  18. Come down to the bottom of the lift with alot of speed once and did 4, then the lift operator stopped me and wanted to check my pass. I told him not to bother me I told him "I'm Local".then again it could be the medical marijuanna my friend asked me to hold because his pockets were full and I'm a good guy? Kipp, Powdermountain dot net.
  19. Will they fit a wide foot (D) ? Thanks.
  20. Powder getting an new quad at Hidden lake is going to take a little of my resting time away, I may have to get in shape for the coming season. (light beer?) Nice to know I'm not alone hardbooting up north in Utah here, look foward to taking a run with you. Pray for snow, Kipp
  21. Thanks for answering all my questions about the board, can't wait to take it for a run at Powder Mountain.
  22. In doing research about Titanal I found some great information at Hardbooter http://hardbooter.com/news/archives/64-Titanal.html and as the date of this posting an article on their main page by Bill Bordy. Thanks for the pics, looks like a great board. Kipp
