    Yes Bobdea they will work!

    Using cork under prototype plate hardware to prevent scuffing on board.So far works to prevent marks but you have to check screws for compaction of gasket.

    Automotive gasket material available in many thicknesses and material. Have used cork based material. Easy to work with, silicone cork composite very flexible make sure you place it with printing up as colour will bleed if placed against board. Does not scratch or leave marks on board!

    Has your season been similar to lower BC manland (nelson area) ? Carpet carving and making plates for all my boards will nave to do till next year.Local hill isn't run by skiers so they like to close as soon as they can. Would be nice if they would compete with other hills for longest season Maybe put down more than 1 foot of snow on at least one run for die hards.

    If people embrace the idea to try a plate the results will be enjoyable. The trend from longer 180 + boards to boards around 160 may slow as people haul out their favorite "long board" and discover a new beast that has been unleashed with the use of a plate. The flat spot under your feet has prevented the board from carving it's true src unless its loaded. A plate will free that loaded area allowing more flex .

    Applies to Canada and US. If we have such great Govt's why don't we have the best of both systems ???

    Do the Sidewinders ride anything like the old Emery bindings with the linear ridge under heel and toe and plastic cushion that allows the boot to rock sideways ???
  15. lowrider
    No working on an affordable one.

    email on???

    Spent all yesterday on the slush, last day at local hill. The plate made it possible, without it my legs would not take the pounding. Unfortunatly convincing others to try one is a hard sell I may recoup my R&D costs but i don't think the average rider is daring enough to try a plate let alone spend money on one. Time will tell.:sleep:

    Is your email on??

    If you can afford it the ride is truly worth it even for weekend warriors. Presently the apex will not fit 4x4 bolt pattern but i understand mods are on the way. With the season winding down next season should bring large change to carving as we know it today. Your old front leg doesn't have to take a pounding every time out.These plates really mellow out shock!

    Do you notice or feel flex in your boots between heel and toe ?? Do you think independent flex between these two points could create issues with boot failure??
  23. lowrider
    Do you guys really think the Hangl or F2 are anything like the Apex plate????? In ride feel or performance ???
  24. lowrider
    Excellent idea but you may have to explain it a few more times for the engineers to understand it. The longer bale bolts give more meat for the heel reciever bolts. The ones comming in from the top. Good tinkering :biggthump:biggthump:biggthump:biggthump

    Sliding not so bad the sudden stop sucks. Keep your seat belt tight Hitting that wiper motor above your head hurts.
