  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

    riding again this weekend. possibly on friday and sunday for sure. First race of the season at bromley for usasa is on saturday
  8. 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
  9. 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
  11. 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
  12. 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!!

    Alex, Steph, myself, Jose, Anna, Mark ??who else can come and ride the best groom? hope to see some more, even if they don't carve
  14. Dont get set on the 5 degrees of splay. I run 2 degree difference on my virus. You may like that. Also as you probably know check for boot bias. Mount boots on board on the bench and make sure they are as centered as possible. When I started riding wider boards I had to adjust the bias quite a bit. Hope that was worth me writing. Virus boards are awesome!!

    another stellar weekend at stratton! carving was, as usual, very very good!! that grooming team is the best. there were 8-10 alpine riders out there, and maybe more! doin it again next weekend, and if anyone wants to come up, I can garrunntee you will have a great carving crew
  21. its bad enough most people don't pay attention to thier surroundings. but when the code is written differently or there is a difference from one mountain to another, alpine becomes very dangerous for the rider. when there tends to be some more traffic (always variables), it tells me to not finish my turns and keep some more downhill speed. I'm not suggesting to stop carving, but the carver who totally finishes each turn is in much greater danger of being hit. It is tough to stay on the subject of the code, when in the end it points to how one must conduct his/herself on the hill. bottom line is get low, and carve hard! nearly all other people on the hill are heading down the hill at a faster rate than we are, so... we sleep in the bed we made. good subject
  22. sports authority is really close to me and that's where i take my stuff. the guy there is really good:1luvu:.
