  1. Hi - Would you be willing to sell any of the toe bails separate? One of my toe clips broke 2 weeks ago and I can't find replacement parts anywhere. Thanks a lot.
  2. I sent an email through BOL but in case that didn't work, my zip code is 12029. Thanks again - Ian
  3. hi inshallah35, i just want to snowboard and my bindings just busted. i didn't make up the rules or set the precedent for the first come first serve system that seems to be in effect for all of the other stuff i've bought off BOL. obviously, Carve99 can do as he pleases....i'm not going to get upset about it. everyone is allowed to do what they want. nice little mean smiley faced circle with mean face and gun by the way. what is that supposed to mean exactly? by the way Carve99, if you want to sell to me, please let me know. if not, that's fine. i don't hold grudges.....$80 is $80. thanks
  4. this forum typically operates on a first come first serve basis, right? if so, i'd appreciate the opportunity to purchase the bindings since i was the first to reply to the original post. thanks a lot
  5. that sounds perfect. can you send me your email? i can paypal today. thanks a lot. - ian my email is: madmax@hotmail.com
  6. i'm definitely interested in these as mine just blew apart on friday...do you need special heels to work with this style? i have the burton type with the plastic lever on the toe bail and haven't used this style before. thanks
  7. hi - i just re-read your post and realized that i thought you had front bails available which is what i really need. alas, i was mistaken. sorry about that.
  8. hi - can you post any pictures? how much would you want for everything? thanks - ian
  9. i've been reading a lot on the subject of binding placement on a board, angles, etc. and i feel very overwhelmed. i don't know anybody with a carving board and i'm looking for some help on how to do a baseline beginner setup that i can work off of. i've been riding soft boots for about 15 years, mostly on the last year ('98 i think) burton freeride 3 strap bindings (33 degrees front, 30 rear). i've been wanting to try an alpine setup for a while and, with my very meager budget, now own a 165 burton coil which is in excellent condition. board specs are: running length: 1390mm nose length: 180mm tail length: 85mm waist width: 215mm sidecut depth: 26mm sidecut radius: 9.30m the board came with what i'm pretty sure are burton performance bindings (from what i've been able to find out online), with toe/heel bails the boots are raichle 224's, mp27 after a little messing around, it looks like i can get away with angles in the 42 - 45 degree area and have no drag i am 5'10", 155 pounds, regular footed i ride somewhat aggressively, but nothing too crazy so, where do i start? minimum angles to achieve no toe/heel drag? centered on the board with feet shoulder's width apart? thanks a lot for the help
  10. thanks for the tips jack. carvedog - i can't download any pics for some reason over the past few days. anyway, the boots are raichle 224's with 295mm length. from what i've read on alpinecarving.com, the bindings are burton performance (like the carriers but with a different system for adjusting the toe/heel pieces) with the blue plastic top if that helps. the blue plastic top of the binding body has number scales stamped in it next to the toe/heel pieces starting with 1's nearest the center and working to a 6 nearest the edges of the board. the toe/heel pieces each have a small indicator sticking off the side above these numbers. the toe/heel pieces each have a plastic lever with a screw that, when turned 90 degrees, frees the lever which then allows you to slide the toe/heel pieces. the toe/heel pieces can be locked over the numbers in the scale themselves or the small indicator lines that separate the numbers in the scale, giving 11 possible locations for each piece. hope that helps. thanks - ian
  11. this is going to be my first season in hard boots and i picked up a used board with burton bindings. they are not step in style bindings, but have front and rear bails. how do i know if the length is set properly to fit my boots? thanks for the help!
  12. hi - what kind of price did you have in mind? $30 shipping + ...? Let me know. thanks - ian
  13. hi - what kind of flex do they have, stiff/soft? how much to ship to 12029 in the u.s.? thanks a lot - ian
  14. hi - could you tell me what shipping would be to 12060 if the boots are still available? my new (used) board is in the mail and i really need some boots to get me started. thanks a lot! - ian
