  1. Ok I wanted to find a board to run some 180 seismic trucks. Bill has made these before and like others he shipped very quickly.

    too bad the board was way soft, and suffered a catastrophic faliure just flexing in a parking lot (no tricks).

    I will make an update with how Bill handels it, but it not in the same leauge as a dervish by a long shot as far as how I like the flex.

    OK update, Bill immediatly said his bad and that more glass can be added to stiffen things up. I like the way bill is running his busness.

    Ok update on the update. Bill really wants to do the right thing and is willing to build a "special" stiffer board to mae it right. he is really trying hard to handel this well.

  2. I just bought NOS 08 "32" (the stiff ones) and they says thay are molable but do not bake them. they say take them to a ski shop where they will use (basicly a big hair dryer) to "heat mold them" so nothing says you cant use the dryer or hari dryer method at home to get a better fit earlier.

    I still need to do mine as the toes are too tight but have not been used yet.

  3. Is it just me or do the UPZ (in the standard bail) are much harder to "find" the rearbail. Like Boris my Carvex or my new/old Nordicia SBH bootsaremuch easyer to find the rear bail. Plus I think UPZ removes material from the heel to get the shorter sole length but then I think they have the higest rate of busted heels also.

    I have not seen "ski" boots bust the heels as often.
