I'm riding and instructing at Perfect North slopes this year.
Currently riding Burton Reactor hardshells and Burton step-in plate bindings (until I get some F2 titaniums later in season). For boards, I'm currently stuck either using the above on an asymmetrical Burton 157 Alp (dated, but ridable) OR (favored setup) using the hardboots on my BMC 166.
I did have an opportunity to ride a Donek freecarve 170-something last year, and intend to buy one later this season, when finances support it. (What I mean is that I'm going to buy a custom Donek, I personally call my custom design a Wendigo!)
tedmowery@yahoo.com for those seeking alpine instruction, or just wanting to ride with another alpine rider. We have snow this year, we're one of the few midwest places open...
