  1. Are the boots still available? email me at wwoitowich @ gmail.com Thanks, Will
  2. Sorry, missed the SOLD sign, oops!
  3. Did these ever sell? If they are still available email me at wwoitowich @ gmail.com My daughter just cracked the back bale clips on both boots of her Head Stratos Pros, I am scrabblling around. Thanks Will
  4. There is an Ontario Snowboard Race Club but it is a private team and is not under a Provincial mandate or funding. Go to www.ontariosnowboardclub.com MIke Towers, Lindsay Young and Dave Balne are the coaches. They participate in the AOS and North America Cup /FIS sanctioned races. Also Check out AOS at www.ontariosnowboarders.ca Good Luck Will
  5. Hey Drew, Email sent to you or email me at wwoitowich @ gmail.com Sorry :( nothing to trade. Will
  6. Skategoat - I consolidated it down to Boards, Boots and Bindings and Other Gear. I just need to figure out why the layout changed when you select the Product Details link.
  7. Thanks for the feedback, it is always appreciated. I was thinking the same thing - so feedback like this is good- if a page is empty now, it can be unpublishedt and then published when items come in. Consolidating all the gear on one page until it gets bigger does make sense. I will give it a go - I will let you know when its changed. Will
  8. Neil, You made a good observation, so I talked to a reliable source who has been running a similar web site model for 4 years. This is what they told me - "we recommend payment only through paypal or escrow.com - both of which offer protection for both the buyer and the seller." I am looking into adding additional security features for both buyers and sellers. I, personally have sold some items thru the site and used paypal for the transactions. No Problems so far. The buyers are happy. Maybe Fin or Jack can comment on how this site handled the same concerns when it started out. Will
  9. Hi Sinecure, When you say snow sliders - are referring to the skiers? I have thought about the skiers and the site may evolve over time to add more winter snowsports gear. Will-i-am
  10. Hello everyone. I have been a regular observer of this website ever since my kids started to alpine race about 9 years ago - man time flies. They have accumulated all sorts of equipment. We have purchased Raichle boots from Bomber and I have conversed with several of you over the years. BOL is a great site. After looking at the gear pile up and listening to other parents talk about what to do with the stuff their kids have grown out of I decided to launch a website for preowned and used snowboards and related gear called -- www.boardsbootsandbindings.com This site is designed to connect buyers and sellers of used gear. So I think that if you want to sell your gear - why not add another selling stream - post your stuff on my site. My kids have grown and they have graduated from various used race boards to Coilers. My son loves them and rides nothing else. Bruce Varsava of Coiler can vouch for this site. My daughter started last year on a Coiler owned by Patrick Farrell of the Canadian National Team - she is now in line for a PR Coiler for GS races from Bruce. The kids have ridden Rossignol VAS, Volkl Renn Tiger, Coiler, Burton FP So I look forward to hearing from the sellers. I think that my site can compliment the BOL classified section and as many of you say - "help empty the quiver" Regards, Will boardsbootsandbindings.com
  11. Hi Geist, Welcome to the carving world. There is lots of info on the replies that have been posted. Regarding used gear take a look at www.boardsbootsandbindings.com Its a new site and it specializes in listing used gear that people are selling. Hopefully you have been sized for both Slalom and GS boards - it depends what the school races will be - most are GS races so that may be the length to look for. There are several knowledgable carvers and racers here that can help you with sizing. If you get a board that is too long it will really slap you around. My opinion is to get a first board that is on the shorter end of the GS spectrum. In this forum and elsewhere there is lots of good info. If you have been sized what is the length that was recommended and what is your boot size in US and Mondo. Good Luck Will
