  1. Having a hard time figuring how to upload pics. I can text or mail them easily until then
  2. I am the original owner of this board. 162 Kessler slalom board. I bought it from all board sports and it has been on the snow only a couple of times. It just doesn't ride well for my style. It's in near perfect condition. Cost 1600 new. $1000 obo. Shipping to lower 48 and canada. No trades. Text Eric @631-748-7882 or mail ewhittel @ gmail
  3. I have a pair deeluxe 325s for sale. They were used maybe a couple of times and the liners were cooked once. Practically no wear. The bottoms looks almost perfect. $350 or best offer. No trades. Will only ship to lower 48 and canada. Shipping price not included. Text eric @631-748-7882 or ewhittel at gmail . Com
  4. Want to know what happens to the ride characteristics on a SG 185 when you move your stance forward or back from center. so if you just move one set of inserts forward: does it enter and exit turns differently? does it change anything else? same questions if you move back. thanks
  5. I have a set of bomber power plates that I purchased for a soft boot set up. I just don't like soft boots. Tried them for 3 runs and decided it is not for me. This plate system has 0 degree cant discs, and red rubbers. Everything is brand new. all hardware, instructions, etc. cost me $207 shipped. I will sell them for 180 shipped. Also Have a set of Union sl asadachi (size l/xl) bindings that were used for the same setup. 3 runs, all new in box. cost $290. I'll sell for $240 shipped please email me for a pic or to talk. I will take a paypal gift only ewhittel@gmail dot com

  9. Come down to Long Island and my partner and I will give you wakeboard lessons! like us out on facebook (please) http://www.facebook.com/DDWakeboard
  10. Absolutely need to get a base bevel on that board. .5 or 1 degree depending on how quickly you want the board to edge. Sure binding bias is important to make sure you are centered, but it will be hooky without base bevel. You probably should get some good tuning tools and take care of you're board. At least have it done. No doubt that is the problem

    Alex and I will b out Saturday and add Steph plus one more on Sunday
  12. I contacted hansjuurg kessler directly and his reply was to have some kind of plate between the binding and board if I was to use catek os2 bindings
  13. Leave the lift,don't change you're stance. They are a different ride than most boards and take some getting used to. Maybe more so for you. I would say that you need to get really low in you're turn. And stay pretty low in transition. With out seeing you ride I can't say much but don't try to change the boot binding set up and just learn to adapt to that type of board. Grab the edge and get really low!!
