  1. Wonder if I can put plates on it? Super deal.

    What angles would you prefer to ride with a waist that wide? Last week I put plates on my flow powder board and used the no overhang method for angles and it was about 25 degrees(no lift/cant/19" wide), rode pretty good but I would have liked some lift.

  2. Wish I could come back up this week! That snow was just starting to hit on Monday towards the end of the day. But the wind, cold, and trying to get my girlfriend to actually link turns carving made it a short day. Still got a few good runs in on vagabond. Loving the donek plate, my softboot buddies were complaining about the ice and my prior was railing!

  3. Well i just started smoking unfiltered Pall Malls again, cardio is suffering but i find if i remember to breath right i'm just fine with most cardio workouts. I usually start with cardio, pushups, then weights, situps, more weights, then bench pressing.

    I'm going to go pick up some wax and i have a small grit hone at home to smooth out the edges.

    Talk about an oxymoron :freak3:

  4. People still listed to the prodigy? haha j/k I prefer Disturbed, basically the whole "Down with the Sickness" album when I work out. Funny thing is I'll listed to Norah Jones when I snowboard...don't judge me.

    Anyways, you're on track with the deep knee bends, basically one leg squat into runners stance and back up, 20 reps then switch legs. Then wall sits.

    Here is a guy with his shirt off jump roping, is that better? bwahahaha

  5. oh yeah, lunges, wallsits, and more lunges. One of the the other amazingly effective workouts is jumproping if done properly. Skip to 1.29 where she shows doing two and two. This is one of the best cardios you can do.

  6. I'm one of the guys that got tired of beating myself up on rails/jumps. I have always loved powder/freeriding/carving as well. I had maybe seen one hardbooter in my life but it didn't even register as to what it was all about.

    When I went searching for a powder board and found the tanker, it led me to this site...the rest is history. haha

    Started snowboarding when I was 15 back in 1999 I think, I'm 27 now and this will be my 2nd season hardbooting.

  7. I'm a welder by trade and when it comes to shade necessary for a particular welding process, eye color becomes a factor for some.

    This is also comparable to sunglasses and goggles but with welding it is imperative. Too little shade and some serious discomfort or injury can result.

    I myself have VERY light grey-blue eyes so I always prefer a very dark shade for direct sunlight so the fire irridium lenses are amazing. In contrast, someone with a darker eyecolor will be happy with persimmon for all conditions.
