  1. Beckmann, That is what I suspected. Still working on it! --DM
  2. Kahn I am looking forward to it! Guess I am going to have to drive a few hours to find somewhere to ride a few more times this season! I've been bitten by the bug! Can't get enough! --DM :-)
  3. GREAT video! thanks for the tip! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. My Boots are MD29 and you are right I have some underhang. I've gone back to my original 50/46 which gets me pretty close to the edge. I found when I rode my original set up if I moved my weight back a bit the heal side turns hooked up better. I'm trying a bit of setback and working on squaring up a bit more and hoping that helps!

  5. https://vimeo.com/122043694 Here is the only video I have from that day. You can see the trouble I'm having also some rather nasty counter rotation on my heal side turns. --Dave Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Mark you are right! I fat fingered the waist measurement it is 25cm. I was riding at 50/46 but steepened the angles to help square up my hips! Corey to your point I was experiencing the "carve/release" experience. I also move my stance back slightly to slow turn initiation a bit. I will see how that works! --Dave Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I am new to hardbooting and had to mount my gear on a Sims All Mountain 70. New carving board is in the budget for next year!! For now I have to ride this. It is a 167cm with 143 of running area. Board flex is a 6. Waist is 20.5 and I'm mounted in the center of the mounting pattern. Running 55 front 53 rear with 3 degrees of cant/lift front and rear. Stance is 20.5, I'm 6' 4". I posted another post on having trouble with my heal side carves, (felt like I was too far forward on the board, and it seemed to dive in too quick heal side then break loose. Very hard to establish the carve.) My question is, do i need to use some setback with a soft board to make it carve better? It feels like I do. I will post a short video clip shortly.

  8. Looking along the direction of travel, not down the fall line. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Oops I fat fingered the send button... I had better luck by shifting weight back to enter the turns but it still wanted to come around too quick. (Glad I had a helmet on! LOL). Any suggestions? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Ok finished the day and had a blast. Still trouble with heal side carves. Running 50/46 goofy. Board is an old Sims all mountain 70. 167 cm with 21 waist. I think I may be too far forward on the board. Toe side great carves! Heal side the board dives in too quick and breaks loose. I Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Ok the Norm is working toe side but having some trouble heal side ! Board is diving in too hard! I will keep working! Man I love this!! Yahoo!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
