  1. Beautiful! Love those specs,and the topsheet is kickass.
  2. The whole idea seems a little sacrilegious,but if I HAD to add holes to a board......I would only put my faith in t-nuts. I 2nd having a builder just make a board with inserts to suit your needs.
  3. Speaking of moose.....there's some "downhome" dialogue here.Don't let the kids listen!
  4. "Garcon le Magnifique!"I'd be looking around too!
  5. That's looks like a clean,straightforward plate.What's its' construction?Whatever it is.....it works for you,nice carves!Cheers.
  6. I'm so stoked! I really need to contact Bruce or Sean and order up a 180 metal\rubber\carbon with an 11m SCR built for my weight.......Dreaming of something easily-flickable with super-long eff.-edge!Any advice?
  7. that's a bit of an eye-opener....no pun intended. you can see the concentration....you hardly blinked!Where are you riding? Rabbit Hill?
  8. Are metal whips generally thinner\lighter than traditional construction boards? 'Cause when I switch back to glass stuff, it feels like there's a cinder-block bolted to my foot?
  9. A couple nights back,Slayermtb and I were rutting-up our local bump when a little jibber asks me if I ever hit my knees on the snow.....I reply-"nope,just my hips",followed by weird Golden-Retriever stare at me and my gear....
  10. Yep,it was a pain in the a$$ getting them sorted just right to my boots....the receiver holes aren't nearly as accomodating as those on my TD3's.Once I got them dialed though,seemed nice and snug.
  11. Who's familiar with them?I just mounted a pair for trial tomorrow....never been on them before,but I can see where the aluminum receivers could wear from the steel pins.Anything I should know or be watching for?Thanks.
  12. Rode my new WCRM 169 last evening on a mix of hardpack and ice. I was both impressed and concerned with the construction of the board-very light and thinner than anything I've had underfoot. I'm likely well beyond its'weight rating at 235 geared-up.....this had me wondering if it would fold underneath me. Very happy to report that it gave back all that I could put into it. This is my second Prior but first metal construction and I now believe in the hype. It dampened the frozen cookies and astounded me with its' edgehold on fast,scraped snow that would've forced me to stay low and over the edge on my glass boards. The board is just stiff enough for some rebound off the tail,the SCR is perfect for our narrow trails and it's very predictable on edge or straightlining on flat base. More than happy with the board and the confidence it inspires in icy conditions. A great East Coast ride from a quality West Coast builder. Well done Chris Prior....
  13. That puppy looks better than new.....how many man-hrs to to restore it? I like the custom nose-stripe....you've got me daydreaming of a black Coiler Monster,covered with old Rat-rod pinstriping.
  14. Received all 3 items today;board,boots,and bindings are as new! Great packaging as well. Cheers, Jason.
  15. This is a fun board.Loads of camber.
  16. I used to ride Sims plates on my old Damian Dagger @ Big White. Seemed like every time I'd launch with it,I'd land and carve the next two turns one-footed.+1 for Step-ins!!!Never have I had one open up,and I air all my boards when possible.Nothing better than grabbing a slow Method-air on a 180+ alpine board in the park.
  17. I just bought a pair of Track 700's,Mondo 27.I'm unhappy with the heel-lift in my Track 325 Mondo 28's.....hoping they'll fit as I wait impatiently upon Canada Post.
  18. Sorry to hear about you jostling your brain,TB. I knocked myself out-cold two years back in the terrain-park on a Prior 181 WCR(alcohol may have been involved)....I had a killer headache for a week straight,so I'm assuming I had some sort of concussion.Anyway,My doting mother buys me a helmet last Xmas that I won't wear due to poor fit.I really have to stop talking about it and just buy one I like.I make my two kids wear 'em while skiing......time to stop being a hypocrite and find one that fits my noodle.
  19. LOVE IT!Sounds like his Dad will have to "Pony-Up!"
  20. I suppose it all depends on how and where you make your carves.....I look at gear like cars;better to let someone else take the hit and then buy up their used gear for much less $$$,unless you need that new-car-smell.There's usually plenty of stuff to drool over here in the classifieds.
  21. I had a pair years ago with Intec heels,so I assumed they'd fit Fintecs as well.
  22. That Caddy must put a surprised look on the faces of some M and AMG owners around town?
