  1. 2018-2019: Go Faster Get Lower Crank 8 Turns Between Towers Get my Bomber BP up and running on the Kessler Roadtrip to ride the white powder with Crack and stay at the Crack House
  2. Yeah Kneel......I understand the Heel Harness goes over the liner... Surf Quebec - so you saying you like your Intuition luxury even though you have to "pull like crazy to keep your heels down" ??
  3. Ugh! Dave! Now What! Back to Intuition I guess
  4. This is the boot model the liner would come from and theres a pic of the liner..... http://upzboots.com/shop/2019-rc12-shoxxter-solid-lime-yellow/ Dan says..... UPZ makes all their own liners in house in Austria. Can't really say for sure how the UPZ liner will fit your Deeluxe as I have not tried it. But I have used UPZ liners in Salomon ski boots for a long time and never had an issue. Have sold ski racers the FLO liner to to in Langes and other ski boots and all feedback was positive. So I do not forsee any fit issue with the liner to your shells.
  5. Hard to tell his angles Looks like Japan?? My Moss Hardboot Pow setup would eat that up!!
  6. Dan at yoja@upzboots.com says they got their 2019 top UPZ liner available in a 28-28.5 for $229US I've asked for photos and more info.......
  7. If I could get my hands on a new/unused UPZ liner would I go for same size as as my Mondo size - 28? Or go up or down in size because there a different volume like Intuition liners??
  8. Hmm.....I'm sure you would know Jack.........but did anybody else see or notice more Alpine boards on fleabay? I sure missed it! ...and I'm always looking all over the web for the next board!!
  9. .........Yeah, and I bet his foot gets pretty cold
  10. I like a little heel lift with my pow hardboot setup but like a locked in heel fit with my hard charging boot setup....and want to see what less heel lift than in my Track 700's does for me in the new 425 Pro boots..... Anybody tried the Deeluxe Heel Harness?? Inexpensive option for sure..... https://www.yyzcanuck.com/shop/boots/deeluxe-heel-harness/
  11. Hmm....UPZ liners can be bought separately??
  12. Just lived vicariously picking up some more binding parts at Gumbo.com.........and saw there's still no boards for sale ?? So I know Sean got all the Boots in the resale, part 3......but what happened to All The Boards that were there ???? Curious minds want to know
  13. As I am usually on 1st chair and the only Hardbooter out there, it's no problem getting the groom to myself.....especially if there's even a hint of freshies. While everybody else is off hunting the few inches of new pow I'm chewing up the groom ...but it is fun to meet up with the occasional Alpine rider for some runs and gear talk on the chair
  14. Wow! Just noticed Deeluxe updated the 425 Pro....... looks retro 8o's colors like the old Blax/Head colors The 2019 version they hollowed out the buckles...wonder what weight that saves? Cool idea to color anodize the teeth buckles The The 2019 liner looks like a tongue liner and taller..... I'll have to check and find out what liner that is! Think I like my Black and Green 425's.......
  15. Aw Man! Where were you when I was piecemealing my BP UPM setup together over the last 6 months! Why ya selling Yami??
  16. The pow and terrain in Tahoe is Awesome!.... but after seven years I had enough of the Tahoe Hour long lift lines, Hours long traffic jams and the Gestapo BS Squaw throws down! (Seriously - your average pass holder would get their Pass pulled for a month+ just for posting my last sentence on social media!!!) I really only had one season left in me and was planning to move back East to our Northern NH summer home after this winter anyway but when Alterra bought out Squaw last season Alot of jobs and people got squashed over the summer in the acquisition......including mine. I will only really miss the 6 months of riding...and some waist deep pow days! So yeah, moved back to the center of NH ski universe - Cannon, Loon, Waterville Valley, Bretton Woods, Attitash , Wildcat......... all within 10 minutes to a hour drive!! It's all Good! The Moss Armada is not Coastist .....it loves it all, everywhere, in all conditions...... 2 inches or 2 feet! Really, I've had some pretty good pow days on the East coast...nothing waist deep but shin to knee deep at Loon, Watervile Valley, Cannon when I would make it back to NH 3-4 times each of the last seven winters. Seriously, I'd use the Moss PQ60 as my everyday groomer work board but the Moss's Swallowtail's get a lot of abuse.... in the lift lines, in the glades......so I keep them in reserve for "fluffy" conditions. So Yeah, really considering how to make your invitation happen!...... the Powder Highway is a Priority!
  17. Thanks for all that Powder Highway info OD! Hope I'm not hijacking this thread.....but it's all about carving and Pow riding Canada, right? Yeah bringing the carving boards but how about the Pow? Can't leave the Moss Pow squadron behind! Everyplace as good as any other resort in a big dump??
  18. That looked impressive....but painful! Glad you survived!
  19. No those liners actually say Palau. I got them off ebay....out of Germany Brand New...still in the original box https://www.ebay.com/itm/152946607023?ViewItem=&item=152946607023&var=452717097136
  20. Ha! Of course! Why didn't I think of that! How could the wife possibly have a problem with me going on a month long ski trip to Canada..... via Japan!
  21. Yeah, I had heard Palau was making the liners for Deeluxe. YYZ says The heat moldable Speed TF 141 Liner is standard on the 425. https://www.yyzcanuck.com/shop/boots/deeluxe-141-liner/ I bought my boots without a liner....just the shell.

  23. Curse you Crack! Curse You! Now I have to decide between a week of riding in Japan OR spending 3 weeks+ on the Powder Highway with you Canuks!! What to do.......decisions, decisions..........
  24. True that....... but I don't have any liner for this boot yet ....and going to a shop with a boot fitter is gonna sell me on the best brand "That They Carry"......... I'd like to narrow it down before I go into a shop...........
  25. Hey Slap........ how much was your Gran Prix with Sidewinder option ?? Dred.....yea Fin already got me down to a performance fit.... I'm already down 1 1/2 from my street shoes.....I'm a 11 1/2 -12 in most shoes and I'm riding size 10/ Mondo 28 Don't think I could go down to 27.5 without chopping off some toes!!
