    Volkl RT GS?

    Anyone have a newer RT(175-183) they want to part with? My old faithful is wearing out....
  2. I'm not familiar with this board.....is it an AM\Freecarve design?
  3. The first alpine board I bought was an Aggression Stealth like Delaney rode in the vid.....The asym offset was nuts...squirreliest board I've ridden.That thing HATED to go in a straight-line,but it was always an exciting ride.
  4. Those are the standard Blax toe-bails I'm familiar with....not as beefy as some,may have a different curvature than other types, but fit like a glove on Head and Deeluxe boots.
  5. Stephane.....I've had those exact bindings for years....never an issue.Not as rigid as my TD3's....but sometimes a little flex is a good thing!
  6. I feel a sudden urge to relocate....
  7. Hi Kurt, I like the price.....I checked the specs on that board,I'm a little concerned my 225lbs will fold that puppy....whaddya think?
  8. Sunday afternoon, a kid looks up from staring at my 183 Speedster rs in the platter line and asks...."did you MAKE that board?"
  9. I'd be happier if she'd put wood in that stove.....you DID notice the woodstove in the background,yeah?
  10. You know Jack,I'd like to accommodate you.....but I'm hoping for more such tasteful photos of that genre,and I believe she'll make me eat the camera if I share any further.
  11. I know it'll come off sounding like so much bravado....but I couldn't have stood there for too long listening to that LOON's rant, especially with his ski-pole in the air!We all pay the same fees for the same privileges....not to be berated by an uninformed hero....he's going to chastise the wrong people sooner or later...and find himself going home with 4 really short ski-poles in tow.....besides,ruts only affect those that cross them while sideslipping:argue:Congrats to all of you on your show of restraint.
  12. Thanks Corey...that's my favorite ride with multiple blended radii,soft in the nose,firms up towards the tail!
  13. Last night,halfway down a trail,I pull a hard C-carve around two guys sitting on hill in soft-boots and proceed a good 40'back up-hill.....one of them raises both arms and hollers"Holy-sh*t!!...I ride downhill,and YOU ride up the hill?Crazy stunts!" Sharp edges kids...shaaarrrrp edges:p
  14. Sounded like a gunshot when it snapped;)
  15. What if its a European carry-all,or man-bag? Too bad they dont come in rat-rod flat-black.:D
  16. Safe to assume they'll be world-class boards....I can't see jj putting his name on anything less. As for the builder.....what better marketer and poster-boy than the Olympic gold-medalist? It's win-win!
  17. Yeah,the wacky topsheet looks sweet up close,but I could scratch with my thumbnail if pushed....only cosmetics though. Can't wait to abuse it on eastern blue ice....could be another 3-4 weeks though:'( FWIW....the construction of this board is so smooth and shows a lot of attention to detail...even more than my Prior....which is saying something!
  18. I remember an east-Indian telemarketer interrupting my old boss at Dinnertime. He said" listen-I'm eating...gimme your # and I'll call you back when I'm done." The telemarketer says" I'm sorry sir,we don't give out our phone #"...... and my boss replies" yeah,I didn't give you MY fawking # either!"....Click.
  19. Agreed...I haven't anyone to ride hardboots with but my brother in these parts,but its fun tearing the place up,hearing complaints from skiers about the ruts all over the slopes.
  20. I don't have any heroes,but what Damian did in hardboots was nothing less than amazing....back in the day when nobody cared what you rode,as long as you rode. Run what you brung.....good times;) A friend still has his Avalanche 165 Kick....I don't think it has any sidecut whatsoever.
  21. My RS183 Arrived today,now I'm all twitchy cause its still green grass here:( Gotta give a shout to Dave and Andrea @ YYZCANUCK....the board arrived quickly and as expected;too bad they don't sell snow. Now,if only I could stare at this wacky topsheet without going cross-eyed.
  22. Is that a 2010/11 or 09/10? And whats under your bindings....risers/dampeners or just topsheet protection?
  23. I have a 183 on order....waiting impatiently for its arrival. What length is that? Let us know of your riding impressions.
