Dr D I may be interested in the AF700's with BTS. Please confirm that the outside of the shell near the heel, molded in to the plastic says "295" Are the original forward lean locks included with BTS sale ? Thanks, Bricky

*ACE*, Please see my earlier post. What is left for me? Bricky

Loupa5, What is the number molded into the shell of the AF600's by the heel? I assume 280. What is the color? Thanks, Bricky

*ACE*, I'll take the 2 sets of 3 degree TD1 disks with bumpers and 1 set of 6 degree disks with bumpers. Bricky

Fleaman, So you have the 10mm spherical nuts and bolts? If I filled the hole in the plate and redrilled it, they would work. You don't have the special limited edition conversion nut for 12 mm plate with 10mm nut right? Thanks, Bricky

WTB Trenchdigger (TD1) 3 degree disks. Thanks, Bricky

WTB Catek OS1 conversion nuts. There were two versions of OS1's having different Kingpin bolt and nut sizes, 10mm and 12mm. They made a conversion kit. Do you have any of the parts? I want to make all my base plates fit the 10mm size bolt and allen wrench. Thanks Bricky

BILL B, Last weekend it was firmer (hardpack) than I love, but found some carveable spots. It was under 30 degrees all weekend so was not "spring" conditions. Lots of snow, though. No "brown spots" This coming week and weekend appear to have more "spring" conditions, following up to 6" of new snow on Thursday and Friday and some grooming. You will probably need warm wax and ZARDOZ, and the mornings will be best so get up early. Don't miss the run known as "Dot Nebel", on the right hand side. Looks like lots of fun Sorry I won't be there until Friday night. Bricky

Does the 283 have a parachute to stop it at the lift line? Like a fuel dragster. Bricky

Brooklynbomb, Why not come to Belleayre Mountain and CARVE with me ? Bricky

CAIL, Unless you have tried a smaller angle, you can't be sure you wouldn't like it more. Try it!! Net -3 is reasonable, but the Skivisons tool won't let you do it. Buy a tool that gives you the maximum # of options. BRICKY

1. I would not buy the Skivisions tool because because it only lets you go to -3 side (87), which is net -2 if you bevel the base to -1. Some other brands permit up to -6 (84). I ride on Eastern U.S. hardpack and ice between powder dumps. 2, You need to use a magic marker on the edge before tuning so you will know when you have actually file the whole edge to the apex or point. Try a red one. when the red is gone, you should be sharp. 3. You may need to start with a Panzar file when changing edge angles to really get some sidewall and metal removed with less work. If you don't see a bunch of sidewall removal, you may have a problem getting to the edge metal. (Edit, you can use a sidewall planer, too.) Bricky

Just give me a call and email to let me know when you are coming and we can arrange to meet at one of the lifts. My cell does not work in Belleayre so if you call on Friday night or later, you have to call hers. Lifts actually open at 8:30 am, but brochure says 9:00 732-604-0594 848-448-3868 wife's cell brickland@gmail.com Looks like a powder day on Saturday!! Hope to see you there!

At Belleayre last weekend a woman on the lift told me that a few Mobil gas stations are giving out 2 for 1 lift ticket coupons with 7 gallons of gas. She got hers at a Mobil across from the Galleria in Poughkeepsie, NY. The coupons are good for Belleayre and she thought others like Okemo. Anybody know more about this? Thanks, Bricky

I've been riding at Belleayre Mountain this year and find it has several excellent Carving runs. And one of them is really wide and long. Lift tickets are cheap, too. Next Potterbrothers.com flex ticket days are Sunday March 9 and 30th $19.95!! Stop in at their store at exit 19 on the NYS Thruway. Skier appreciation days $15 ticket, Fridays March 14th and April 11th 2 for 1 lift tickets at certain Mobil gas stations w/7 gallons of gas at each 3 visits . One Mobil is in Poughkeepsie across from the Galleria College ID? Ski for Junior ticket price. Ski free on your Birthday, or if it is in the off season there is a different date-see chart on website Visit their website, Belleayre.com Union members reportedly get a discount, too. I'll look into this. Potter Brothers flexticket day on Sunday, March 30, 2008 Belleayre is further West and gets more snow!! Tired of those narrow, icy upper trails at Hunter? Tired of the lift lines at Windham? We may even be able to provide a bed to sleep in!! Why don't some of you Carvers come up and ride with me ? You won't regret it Lifts actually open at 8:30 am, brochure says 9:00 am Contact me for more info!! Thanks, Bricky 732-604-0594 brickland@gmail.com On weekends when I am in Belleayre, you have to use use my wife's cell 848-448-3868 See you there!! Bricky

What is the mm molded on the shell in the inner side of the heel ? I assume there is one since my AF 600's have it. Thanks, Bricky
