  1. That basic one wouldn't be hard to make. It would, however, be a little tedious. If the angled design was scrapped, you could start with some basic angle iron (alu or stainless) and notch it with an angle cutter at regular intervals on a mill.
  2. I love sunapee, but have nothing to add that others haven't said already.
  3. Just depends how much "buck" you've got. The Mazdaspeed3 is a lot cheaper and can almost keep up once they're both moving, just doesn't launch anything like AWD
  4. Haha, it does pretty well in the snow but I wouldn't hate an STi.
  5. I've never set foot on that sort of plate system, but I can say it's some good looking machining work! I've spent plenty of time with manual lathes & mills in the past few months working to .001'' accuracy to appreciate your work. Our CNC is a bit outdated & takes longer to set up than to just make *most* parts by hand. Looking forward to the updates. Looking for a mech engineer?
  6. If that board has the "W" concave, I personally hate the feel of it.
  7. Here's a preview of a new one out of my little lab. Hasn't been hotcoated yet, but you can still get the idea.
  8. This! I'll have a pass there this winter. Also either okemo & stratton OR gunstock & wildcat. Was it you I ran into there last year?
  9. FWIW, If it's a slalom board, he ought to be pumping through the cones..
  10. GreenIce, I wouldn't suggest it. Looks like I have a buyer, too! 13 year old kid & his dad.
  11. It's on iwindsurf also, and the only buyer who has contacted me is in canada, and wants me to ship to buffalo NY. Looks like it's around a $200 shipping quote from yellow freight. I'll take $250 if I don't have to ship!
  12. Thanks! Doesn't look like this is going to get much attention here, though.:(
  13. Plenty of views.. are you not local, or is the price too high?
  14. Bic blast 62. Slalom board. 62 cm width, 110 L, 261 cm Length Asking 300, very flexible, and would take trades. Local pickup/delivery in RI/CT/MA area. I may have other assorted parts that I could sell, if you need more than just the board, but this is all I'm really looking to get rid of.

    DH complete

    A little birdie told me that it's the only one to leave the states, so far I've got a board in line (plus something for myself, but that doesn't count) but I'm always passively taking orders.

    SnowieQc, Enjoy it!
  17. Lightweight, good climber, and you have a Ti hardtail? You're "upgrading" why? Don't mind me, I just prefer hardtails.
  18. Just some updates. I got a Trek 400 from chrisk (THANKS!) I set it up a few days ago, with some deepVs, fixed/fixed, and currently 42x14. Some components have been swapped out, and some more will be soon. It'll also be getting powdercoated in a bit. I'll post photos when they're worth sharing. Bianchi afficianados may consider my wheel color choice sacrilege. $trider, get ahold of me if you still need to get rid of that bridgestone, I'm becoming a bit of a bike gear-whore :rolleyes: Tony, get me back on a board. call/email me about slalom or park. I'm going out for a 30 miles +/- ride in the morning, but mid-afternoon might work.
  19. Absolutely agree with this. My favorite egg pan is a cast iron one. Couple drops of oil & it is just as good as teflon.
  20. One small point, how does a cop test for the amount of THC in someone's body on the side of the road?
  21. I've failed to attach my mast base securely to the board too. Man that sucks to fix in the water, especially with a formula board where you have no chance of holding it on edge in any depth of water.
  22. Take a look around silverfishlongboarding.com, and i/we will answer the questions that remain.
  23. This showed up on another forum I was browsing too. Ridiculously impressive. I too ride xc mountain, and can bunnyhop better than most of my riding buddies, but this is just completely a different level. I don't even understand how it is possible to clear the ground by THAT far
  24. Yup. Wealthy owners. They, unlike insurance providers, won't wait to see if you die before they have to pay to get you healthy. :rolleyes:
  25. The patient that was quickly taken care of will wake up from anesthesia with a cone on their head, the second one will be following the doctors orders under their owner's (read: wife's) scrutiny.
