  1. Here you go. The darker color are the SB324's and the lighter are the twotwentyfives.
  2. Want a new pair of UPZ Boots. Help me pay for them. The wife will be happy to see this offset that. Up for sale are two pair of Raichle Boots. Both are shell size 25-27.5 on the upper shell and the Twotwentyfives are 25-25.5 on the lower shell. The SB324's are 26-26.5 on the lower shell. $185 per pair OBO. Both sets of boots have Intek Heels. The Twotwentyfive's have BTS system. I have an extra set of Fin-tec cables and T handles. New in the Bag. $25 with a pair of boots only. Will not sell alone. I have the original heels from the SB324 boots. I have a little boot shaped hex key for adjusting the boot cant. $15 with a pair of boots. Will not sell alone. I have a pair of Deeluxe MP25 liners. Molded once, never ridden. $50.00 firm. Catek Olympic short plate step in bindings. Have the standard bails and clamp somewhere. $200.00 OBO Also have a pair of Catek FR2 EVO Pro bindings I may consider selling. Purchased new in 2009 for $449.00 ridden once. Then I got hardboots... All the parts are there. Make me an offer that I can't refuse.
  3. Got em. They are very clean. I bought them from MTM in Toronto in 2010. I completely forgot why I bought them. This was I think right after I broke my ankle. My feet are 26.5. He reports that they were molded once but never ridden. I paid $50.00 for them and they have been just sitting in a box since. So $50 and they are yours.
  4. Has anyone upgraded their TD3 step-in's to the sidewinder version and have extra parts laying around? Interested in turning those parts into cash that you can use to buy more stuff? I have a project where I need just the toe-blocks, bails and heel receivers. Let me know your price.
  5. Hi there, are these still available?
  6. Warpspeed, thanks for checking UPS. I am just about to hop a plane from Shanghai to Philadelphia. I'm in my office on Tuesday. I'll check rates from your Post code to mine. Wineguru, thanks for the info on the board. Softer flex is just what I'm looking for. I only weigh 135 or so. My other boards seem really stiff and I need to be flying to get them to turn. I'm already anxious to try this board.
  7. Please check shipping rates to Camden, NJ 08102. I'll check UPS from my end. I get good rates. I assume you take Paypal.
  8. Is anyone going to be at Killington between December 24th and 28th? I am there with my two kids who board, but are not yet into carving. Trying to get them interested, but till then, would love to find someone to ride with as well.
  9. Some people have issues with regular and irregular verbs and try to put an "ed" after any verb to make it past tense. In this case cost is present tense and past tense. So I guess this makes it an irregular verb. So I guess that is an irregular intransitive verb? Can you diagram that sentence Teach? My Mom was an English teacher in the late 50's and early 60's, but back then they did not diagram sentences. But after all this discussion, the board is still over priced!
  10. I would tend to believe that the faster progress in soft boot technology is due in large part to the much larger market for soft boots. Truthfully, it all comes down to the financial realities. Look through Google Patents (much faster and easier to navigate than the US Patent and Trademark Office site) and count how many patents there are for soft boot gear. The reason I voted yes for a separate soft boot forum is not because I ride soft boots and want to convert the world to soft boot carving. I believe that welcoming soft boot CARVERS and those interested in learning about CARVING in general, might enlarge the pool of hard boot carvers. And that would be good for Bomber, Coiler, Donek, Prior and anyone else making gear for hard boots. And the knock on effect would be more new and innovative products developed for the sport, and potentially more reasonable prices as manufacturing volume increased. Like I said before, I don't think that the soft boot carving forum should be a place to discuss backside 540's, butters, grabs or things like that. But it is a great place for mature adults to discuss carving. Surely some portion of these new members to the site would purchase a hard boot set up. If we had to accept that some of these new members will prefer to carve in soft boots in order to increase the exposure of hard boots, isn't that a pretty small price to pay for all of the potential benefits?
  11. And some times the idea grabs us and will not let go. So you cannot sleep or do anything until the idea is completely worked out. I am lucky enough to have a factory (my wife owns it) and engineers working for me (actually, her). Sometimes I just need to see the thing through to an actual working prototype and its out of my system. Sometimes just a model in CAD. But I can get the concept down, hand it to my engineer and have him work out the details. At least for products. I don't think my wife would appreciate seeing her CNC running binding parts instead of door knobs.
  12. I just used Google translate and tweaked the grammar in a few obvious spots. If it had been Chinese, I could have done it myself. I studied French in grade school, but never really had the chance to use it. My teachers were both Parisian. In eight grade we traveled to Quebec. We walked into a sho and the shop keeper said "Ca Va?" We all looked at each other like idiots and just walked out. I learned Chinese by living and working in China for 20+ years. You seem to learn a bit faster when you are hungry. Glad you found the part.
  13. You should post this in the Wanted forum. http://www.bomberonline.com/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=35 Vous devriez mettre cela dans le forum Wanted. Bump! Does anyone have any parts to repair DEELUXE 325 boots ? I broke an "insert" where the axis of rotation of the ankle is. (cuff cant?) It is not hard to round off but the plastic part (white in my case) which is based on a metal rivet ... Unfortunately, I have some spare parts that came with the boots but they are all around the broken part. Can you tell me where I can order them, the DEELUXE web site does not seem allow me to order spare parts. In any case the season is over for me, yesterday at Le Massif de Charlevoix, I scored a double front flip after passing over my board ... and there I have a hard time walking, HAS MORE ON TWENTY YEARS
  14. a guy named Jim. He said that this year they are concentrating on the ski boots, but snowboard hard boots might be coming. This shell cannot be adapted.
  15. http://www.ispo-brandnew.com/en/Winner_Finalist.Finalists.Finalist_Product.aspx?productid=1432 And I thought I had also seen a recent post on some custom carbon racing snowboard boots that were made by Mike Tinkler? I just can't seem to find it.
