  1. buttttttttttttttttt .... you could do that on a McDonald's tray!
  2. Don't have much time. Just quickly. Actually it is 8/15. Apparently a typo forever. Dealer told me.
  3. Has anyone had experience on either or both of these two boards? Any words of wisdom will be appreciated from anyone who has had a ride on these! I'm about to buy one or the other and can't decide (and don't want to buy both ... )
  4. I have an idea. Sell the TD2, pick up a pair of F2, pocket the difference and ride a world cup winning binding and rest assured it won't pop open.
  5. Thanks for the reply, Corey. I rode a Donek plate and it was reasonably bumpy, but actually didn't notice until I broke the bracket and had to remove the plate. So after talking to some people around here, the general consensus is that the bomber hardware is more... bomber and for safety I'm going to go with that. I was really happy with the plate though, really liked the feel of it. Actually once I removed it from the board, I mildly sprained my ankle because I got bumped out of a toeside turn in a weird twisted position. Once the plate was off, I constantly got bumped around like crazy. The other guys still riding plates looked like they were riding hero. I actually liked the amount of impact the plate removed from myself. Even if just for the safety of my ankles and knees.
  6. Yup bought them new. After a quick calculation I'd say they've had no more than 20 days on them. They're in excellent condition, everything functions like new really. They have a few scrapes and whatnot from lift lines, but that's standard stuff.
  7. Worn for 10 days. Amazing pants. They stay DRY and show 0 signs of wear. Great sized pockets, venting, articulated knees, powder cuffs, lined, compatible to zip up with Mammut jackets, keprotec reinforcement and a removable brace, which is very effective. 3 Layer Gore-Tex, heavy duty, great for carving. Size 32, but they're adjustable with Velcro from what seems to be 30-36. I usually wear size 32 pants and I tightened these slightly from the midpoint. I'm 6"2 and length wasn't an issue. Only selling because I've moved to a Norrona One Piece shell for fun =) http://www.gore-tex.com/product/mammut-verbier-pant/1384640847787/ Price USD150. Bought them for USD450. I'm located in Australia and will cover shipping.
  8. Thanks bomber for providing the classifieds forum. I just moved to a larger size boot, these were 1 size too small for me and I couldn't make them work. Deeluxe Track 325T in size MP26, which come with: -BTS installed (yellow top, blue bottom). -Brand new size 9 UPZ Flo Liners, never molded, come with original footbeds. Comes with original extra J-Bars and other fitting accessories. They fit well in the shell. -Original craptastic Deeluxe Thermo Liners. They have been molded once and have had the toe dremelled and sliced and whatnot to fit my feet. Price USD250. I live in Australia and will cover shipping costs.
  9. I recently got a: Nirvana VCam (smooth initiation and easy to transition into a skid if needed) 178cm long (stable ride) 12/14m scr (good all round scr, can do big and small arcs if called upon) 19cm wide (quick edge to edge) 16mm taper (stable and less twitchy at higher speed) Just rode it for 17 days. Changed my life. Love it. Love Prof. BV.
  10. I'd take them to get remolded. Doesn't sound right to me.
  11. Mine are 27.5/28/28.5 (8.5/9/9.5) and have 28 liners.
  12. That's weird. I have very low volume feet and have no heel lift at all... May I ask what the numbers on your upz shell says?
  13. Thanks for the reply lowrider, I'm going to grab a 4mm plate from bomber. After I broke the donek hardware after half a day, the hardware is the most important thing to me. I'm glad you brought that up. Yep, done that, that's why I'm down to just these two. =)
  14. To me, it looks close to new, maybe 1 run on it. Maybe you can just edit your initial listing?
  15. Hi there, just wanted to Chime in on this. I just came back from Japan riding 17 days straight with the Palaus. Totally love them. I got the standard overlap hard model and put them in my UPZ rc10 boots. They molded easily and I don't have any heel lift whatsoever. I did still sprain my ankle though. Once i broke the Donek plate hinge, I didn't realise how bumpy it was and wiped out pretty badly on a bumpy toe side and as a result sprained the ankle on my rear leg (right), don't think that was attributed to the liners, though. Just felt more comfortable by the end and any little hotspots that were there had disappeared, so I guess this is why I think they packed out a little. Ah another thing, a lot of people were complaining of cold feet. One guy had boot covers on, another guy was wearing neoprene socks. My feet were toasty warm in the Palaus and I usually get COLD feet.
  16. Just email Prof. Varsava, or Sean. 170 am vsr 11-13m scr with 16mm of taper in 21.5 width (you don't need to go wide for what you describe) and maybe a gradual nose for this powder you talk of, built for your weight. Doesn't seem like a huge conundrum,you might be over thinking it a little.
