  1. What bindings and boots did you use, to go with it? and was it just the base model? (No titanal/Saber)
  2. Wow, I was commenting about all the boards being sold, being for the under 190 crowd, but this must be a beast....
  3. Jack, I was talking overall, I agree there are different conditions, where everyone is just as good (To the best of their ability)
  4. I'd like to talk to a SB carver that claims they are just as good as a hardbooter. I ride both, and it depends on what I'm doing. Pros and Cons to each set-up. Of course, when I first came into the Forum, all the whiteface guys would get yelled at for what kind of boots we wore (ski boots).
  5. I'm assuming you are riding this, on hard boots?
  6. I didn't buy this board, but just a shout out to Moose. Pleasure conversing with him, and recommend doing business with him.
  7. I'm pretty fit, muscle is heavier than fat, you know....
  8. All the boards for sale on here lately, are for sub 190 lbers. I'm starting to feel old and fat, at 6'2, 210. :) For reference: you have to insert your own sarcasm.
  9. Don't know what happened (and I'm sure a story will come out), but I have to say, a lot of people were looking for this guy, a lot of time was spent, and we should all be pretty happy that ski towns pull together, even for people they don't know.
  10. This weekend, we get back to the lift line, and my son says, "Dad, you turned so hard, in front of me, that I almost fell going over that line in the snow" I was riding my softies.... :)
  11. I’m currently letting him go off with his friends, on his heel side adventures, so I don’t think there is pressure there :) my post was was governed by interest on teaching methods, not frustration, at all. I’m riding for the first time, in years, I can’t be having more fun.
  12. My point was, if they don't want you to help ("I've got it, I'm a pro"), has anyone found ways to make it fun, so they want to progress? He can get up and down the mountain, so I want him to take the next step.
  13. Looking for tips on how to trick kids, I mean teach kids, that are your own.... I have an 8 year old, that says he is a pro, and doesn't want help. Has great balance, and heal side control, but I can't talk him into even attempting a toe side turn, and I had another Dad take him and try too, nothing. He'll run a heal side, and then go switch, to turn the other way, all the way down the mountain. Any insights?
  14. Thanks, it is supposed to be in the 40s, in CT this weekend, so we'll see how it goes. Now that the kids are riding, just want to get them out there...
  15. Been going to powder ridge, with the kids, lately, but I think it will be hard for that mount to get going again. I was there Sunday and it was getting pretty bare. Where's the closest mountain to get them out, this weekend, that will be open? (8 year old, and 5 year old?) I'm currently in East Haddam, CT. Are there any CT or Mass mountains, with snow?
  16. I'm not sure this should be here, but what company, etc, have people used to ship boards, and what is the typical cost? Any info, would be appreciated. Thanks, MK
  17. I saw this board yesterday. Two thoughts on this, not a great bidirectional board, but pretty good stiffness. The price is pretty reasonable, and it is wide for POW, but any thoughts about ice hold, on this board? East Coast here.
  18. More work - and I'm getting lazy. If I want to work, I'll rock the hardboots. everything I've heard about the carbons is that they aren't fun, unless you are really going hard. but I could be wrong. And with the kids, I want to go slower.
  19. Looking for a good shape F2 Eliminator, non Carbon, but any other version would be fine. Mine is about to give up the goose. Focusing on softies, this year, easier to teach the 8 and 5 year old, rockin softies. Thanks, Mike
  20. Hey Guys: Looking for the following... F2 Eliminator longer than 160. F2 Raceboard in the high 160's, low 170's. If you got either send me an e-mail. michael.n.kelly@pweh.com Need to have something left in the board. Thanks, Mike
  21. Hey what color is it. I am actually going to be in manchester this weekend. what do you want for it?
