I lose alot of weight in the winter, and i think i eat more to. But i also spend 4 days a week on the mountian.

I know that you can use ski boots on snowboards but can you use snowboard boots on skis?

That last jump at the end was sweet. I think they were flying 190 feet

Please stop with the spoilers, i know alot of us have been avoiding online news so we can watch it on TV

Thanks alot.... i have been avoiding all online news, so i could watch it on TV

I thought i read somewhere that they were some custom made pants by burton for the whole snowboard team, they were made of gore-tex

Thanks that helped out alot

Thanks, So i guess they are "shock absorbers"

Sorry for my ignorance i tried looking this up but no avail. What are they used for and are they needed?

After just watching BX in the olympics it looks like wescott is riding a kessler

Thanks for that link, so i am now looking at a "SG Full Race T" I havent been able to find any reviews on it yet.

What do you mean by a modern snowboard? Is the coiler prgs not modern? I wasn't able to find the coiler NSR on the website. What is SG?

Well i have been racing a little this year in soft boots and i want to be more competitive next year. First my stats, i am 6'2" 185 lbs and i have been riding for 8 years. So i have been looking at a coiler PRGS, with Track 700T boots. What kind of bindings do you all recommend. And what are race plates? Are they needed? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you for the quick response. I have another question, how much of a disadvantage will i be putting my self in by trying to start off racing PGS in soft boots and a burton custom?

I didnt get your email

First off my name is mike and i have been snowboarding for 8 years now (soft boots). For the last couple years i have been racing in local BX events, but my body took a hard beating last year from some huge spills on the kickers. This year i have a huge mental block and I dont think i can do BX any more. A local rider told me to look into PGS because i still want to stay competitive. So after doing some reasearch it looks very intresting. I have always been fast with very good board control, and before you ask i actully can turn my board and i dont skid to turn like 90% of the boarders out there. So i am wondering what kind of setup should i be looking at in the future? I am 185 lbs. This year i will be trying out some local events on my 162 burton custom. Thank you in advance.
