  5. Well It is time to let my babys go. I did not use them last year do to a Donek I purchased. so I am selling my 03/04 coilers. 172 AM good condition some topsheet dings and scratches one base scratch. 21.5 wide. this was my fav ride so its got some millage but has plenty left. it has the Blue flame topsheet. $350 obo 184 PR gs This is by far the sweetest Board I have ever ridden but it kills me to let it sit. it was ridden for one season maybe a dozen times still in near mint condition. not too much use for it out here in the land of 500 ft verticals. any how it has all of the bells and whistles. wcc, micrograin, torsion plus and superboard. this thing is sweet. 18.5 waist. $450 both boards are built for a 200 lb rider a pair of 2 yr old Catek olympic Short step ins with some extra parts good condition. $200. if any body wants all of it Ill do it all for $850 and throw in a burton travel bag that fits all of it. Keep in mind Coiler has already stopped taking orders for the 05/06 season.... I accept Paypal and certified funds. Buyer pays Shipping. Email me at erik@theclikgroup.com

    ski patrolers?

    well I would start by going to your home mountain and taliking to the Patrol director or the head of training and ask for a application. most places have a ski off to acess aplicants skills. once accepted to the program you will be a pre canidate. and will be shown what is involved in bieng a patroller. you will not be able to treat patients or transport them. at some point you will begin oec Outdoor emergency care. which is very indepth medical training. our training program is 4 months long 2 nights a week. once you have passed your oec pratical exam you are now a canidate and are allowed to treat patients. you will now begin your ski and tobbogan training and will be tought Chair evac and other partoler specific dutys. once you are profficient at ski and tobbogan skills you will be allowed to take your basic ski and toboggan test once this test is passed you are a full basic patroller and are allowed to transport and treat patients. form there you can further your training they offer electives and higher levals of training ie senior and certified. good luck it is a lot of work but alot of fun at the same time. some community colleges offer the oec classes.

    ski patrolers?

    yes I do deduct my mileage, uniform , dues and medical supplies but you get into a grey are when you talk about boards and stuff like that its best to talk to a account about that stuff. Stainless how do you like your incline. I just got mine in the mail on thrusday I am teaching a snowboard enhancement seminar tomorrow so I will be waiting till the afternoon to try it out. I am mounting soft bindings on it and have not ridden soft boots in 2 years. this should be fun. yeah the intec's are great. I have extended teh cable on my rear foot to come out of the top of my pants so I dont have to bend over to pull the cable. soooooooooooooo nice later rambo

    ski patrolers?

    I too patrol on hard boots. I am actually the head snowboard trainer at our hill and am told I am the next region director. any how you should have no problems running a sled with a flat tail board. I agree with fleeman there is really no reason to be doing hop turns unless you are on steep terrain and you should be sideslipping. is it bieng tought to controll speed. im my regoin we do not teach transitions to the snowboarders there is really no need to do one. the only reason that they teach that to the skiiers is the slid slip is taxing on there muscles and they are unable to traverse backwards. doing a transition on a snowboard is a risky manuver because it requires you to take 1 hand off or the tracers. as far as the moguls go you should not be required to do that as a basic. as a Senior canidate I did all of my training and testing on my coiler am. when I showed up for the test they were very skeptical if I could navigate the moguls or not. my run was better then the demo the region director did in softies. any ways the drill goes you are outside of the tracers one had on a tracer and the other on a cross bar you are going down the moguls on your toe side steering your self and the sled in the valleys on the moguls using the chin brake to control speed its a lot like doing a falling leaf thru a mogul field. if you need any thing elso feel free to e-mail me best of luck on your test.
