  1. Lightly used TD3 Standard bindings. Purchased these just before I started racing and switching to f2 bindings so they look new. 3 degree cants with yellow and blue bumpers. Rear binding has a washer on the heelpiece to keep it from moving. This can be removed. $300 with shipping in US.
  2. I also measure 27.5 and also had 27 Deelux 700 many years ago. UPZ run large. I tried 27 upz and were way too big.
  3. Size 26.5 with unused stock liners. Fits my size 10 shoe foot well. Soles in good condition. $275 with shipping (US)
  4. I wear a size 10 shoe and these are the correct size. The original liners are included and have not been used. The heel and toe pieces have been replaced as have several buckles. They have been well used, but still have a lot of life left. $150 PLUS SHIPPING.

    Yo Lci!!

    I was sorry to hear about the move, but I know we will ride together again. At least in BC in March. May try to make it down to Pajarito ( 3 days on Loveland Pass) Lots of areas to hit next season on the Loveland Pass, Mountain collective, and Ikon. Also Purgatory is not too far for you. keep in touch, Arne
  6. Hi Pat, Glad you are doing well. As you know, I had my right knee replaced mid September 2017. I was going to wait until January, but decided to try riding in December. Took it slow (Kessler SL) the first few days. Only skied 7 and snowboarded 34 days this season, mainly due to snow conditions. I have retired from racing, because I don't think pushing it on a rutted hard course would be a good idea if you are trying to make the knee last for 20 years. Also doing more soft boot carving as it seems to be easier on the knee. Asked my ortho dr. which would be better, skiing or riding. He said he didn't know because he didn't ski and try out both and see what feels better. I would say that skiing feels the worst, hardboot carving in the middle, and softboot carving the best. Of course riding the snowboard in powder is the very best. Did 2 days cat sking and 3 days snowboarding in BC in March and had a great time. Good luck with your recovery Pat!

    Chris and I were on every run off the River Run Gondola. We both thought the conditions sucked after the first few runs.

    Yo Lci!!

    Went to Keystone yesterday. Snow is very firm with random patches of ice. Unless they get some snow, it is not good carving. Abasin and Loveland snow is much better!

    Juhwan and I were there. Didn't see you. Did you see trenches?
  12. 1.My front leg is cramping 2. It is getting crowded 3. I am hungry 4. I am thirsty 5. I need to pee
  13. 175. Not sure how length effects the flex #.
  14. How does board width effect apparent boot stiffness? I find that my boots (upc rc10) feel stiffer when riding a wide board (25) vs a narrow board (17.5 or 20). Not sure if it is because you need more movement necessary to get the board on edge, the more relaxed angles or both. My guess would be both. Also the fore and aft movement is more across the width of the board rather than diagonally forward and backward on the narrow board. Appreciate your thoughts.

    Sorry to hear the bad news Don. Keep us posted and heal up fast.
  17. Just saw this. Very sad. Rode with Scott for many years at SES. Great Guy. Wonder what happened. Obituary said donations to heart assoc.
  18. That is my old board. As I indicated when I sold it, it has a lot of taper so it takes effort to finish the turn. Virus does not provide sidecut info. I really liked it on flat gs courses, but had a difficult time on steeper ones. That being said, I saw someone on the same board finishing turns on Copper Bowl at Aspen, so it can be done.
  19. Funny that I just bought the blue one last week, 6 years later. Anxious to try it.
  20. New old board, or is a old new board. It has been at All Boards Sports for a few years, never ridden. SG 169 all mountain wide. Was looking for an all mountain board that can carve and do ok in the powder. Need to take it easy on the new knee for a while. Anyone here ever ride one. 1st sg for me.

    Yo Lci!!

    Thanks for lettling me know pcdenver. I would have gone today if I knew you were going. :(
  22. My review based on one day of riding in temps from 16 to 30 degrees. My head measured 57 cm and I got a M-L. If your head is bigger, this would be too tight. Helmet is heavier than my POC. Viser is not long enough to shield morning sun. Helmet pads are tight and push on my jaw bone. Helmet vents are ok in colder temps but gets warm as temps rise. Face mask does not block as much cold air as I thought it would, but on the other hand it does not get too warm as temps rise. Did get some condensation, but not bad in the dry CO air. It does keep the sun off your face, which is probably good, unless you want the goggle tan. Overall, I like the concept, but not sure I will use it all the time.

    Hey, that can't be me. I am not a euro carver. I am a retired racer. WTF?

    Hope to be there tomorrow if my knee feels better than it does now.
