Nice!

Good stuff!

No doubt about it these guys get it done!
I bought two new boards for this season because of vids like these…as if that’s going to make a difference, LOL!!!
IF I could even link up a few turns like these my quads would send me packing after one short run.

Custom Winterstick Tom Burt 183 with book matched elm topsheet, cherry wood logos, and maple wood sidewalls. As well as a 30th Anniversary Edition Tanker 181.
Plan is to ride both with Burton StepOn X bindings and Burton Ion StepOn boots.
TB183. Tanker 181

Waist: 261mm 261mm
Tail: 300mm 297mm
SCR: 12m 11.25m
Effective Edge: 1461mm 1370mm
Ref Stance: 570mm 570mm
Setback: 40mm 60mm
Full camber Flat rocker
Makes me feel that I’m headed in the wrong direction concerning size…a lotta board!

Ouch! Sorry about that, John. Here’s hoping you heal up soon.
I believe the medical term for my hip is FUBAR. Or as the imaging report says, “severe osteoarthritis of the left hip with complete loss of superior joint space, osteophytes and subchondral cystic change.”
FWIW: I read the above diagnosis to Dr Dan Nelson, ProOrtho, Kirkland, WA, on the radio yesterday and, just as I expected, he would need to, at the very least, see an X-ray as a diagnostic note like this is not very helpful when trying to recommend or decide on treatment. Like he said total hip replacement may be the correct treatment but a Xray would tell the tail and, in some cases, stem cell treatment can solve the issue.

Now that is a beautiful board! I'm jealous
And I thought I would get negative comments about the graphics or lack thereof which maybe this is.
I will go on the record and state that I couldn’t care less about the topsheet graphics on a board. It’s meaningless to me. If I want a personalized or custom look I’ll use off the shelf or custom made stickers.
I am so stoked to take this puppy for a ride and I appreciate what someone posted about a front foot of 45° as being important for heelside.-

At least you guys have a choice and a predictable recovery................I'm still limping around mentally and physically after my medical situation...aka:collision I don't even remember happening! One day I'm feeling 45 and the next I got all the aches and pains of a 85 year old....and still do after 8 months post collision. Finally, after 6 months of daily Advil I weaned myself off in Advil.
And just today another Damn bill! for the Med Flight shows up for $65,000 more than they already got! For a Helicopter ride I don't even remember!
Man........I'm just hoping to get some of my mojo back this winter. The few days I was allowed back out on the hill late last spring I felt like All My Boards were broken and I was driving/riding a Dump Truck!
Riding my body knew what to do but my brain couldn't keep up with the action....really I had trouble just getting into my BTD3 SI's? Like I was a beginner. Damn humbling!
Still feeling humbled physically 8 months post collision but really hoping to get back on my game this winter! Here's hoping we all mend well and have a injury free season!
Wow, super bummer, Barry. I hope you recover completely and sooner rather than later!

Apologize for the hasty pics. I didn’t even know which end was the tip when I first unwrapped it.
Excellent build quality.
Purchased from Slapos, one of our own. Thank you very much, Lukasz!-

There is no “safe amount” of alcohol…it’s ALL poison…get any Resveratrol you want from supplements!
Refined carbs (sugar, bread, pasta, pizza crust, etc.) are poison…the less the better!
Ellenos yogurt=Häagen-Dazs, ketchup, mayonnaise, hot dogs and all processed meats from Arbys, Jersey Mike’s, Subway, etc. are problematic.
Now excuse me while I eat a little chocolate chip cookie dough with my glass of Rose, chomp on a Costco hot dog and listen to Rhonda Patrick, PhD (my longevity guru) at foundmyfitness.com of which I am a paid subscriber.

Is K Carving Korean Softboot Carving Worth Watching which I’m assuming can be done on hardboots too?

Can’t tell you how happy I am that you turned me on to these leg blasters. I wasn’t sure I had the range of motion required but I have no problem getting my butt lower than my hips so I’m good to go in that department.
6 months prior to last season I did dumbell squats with 52.5 #s in each hand, 3 sets of 10 every other day and I row pretty hard about 5 days/week so I expected much less quad burn when I got on my board. It made zero difference.
I’m hoping 3 months of leg blasters will make a difference.
Thanks again.How about doing the leg blasters with a 10# dumbell in each hand?

I’m here for you if you ever need to talk.
I’ll off my unsolicited dissenting opinion. This summer I committed to not doing any exercise I don’t find fun and this is the best shape I’ve been in 10 years. Which happens to be pedaling a non electric bike as hard as I can followed by jumps, bumps, and berms.Plan on hospital time, lol!

You have two entirely different styles to consider, IMHO.
Bomber style on a 170ish length, 20ish cm waist board at about 55/55 angles OR what some are calling Korean style on a 160ish, 26ish cm waist board at about 35/20 angles.
These are very, very general specs and are based only my pretty uneducated opinion.
I’m going to start this season trying a little Korean style on a new Nidecker 158L Blade in my UPZs at 35/20
Watch Softboot Carving Worth Watching on this site for what I’m calling Korean style.

Ease into them. Seriously, for as simple as they are, they're deceptively brutal and will wreck you for a bit if you go in full bore. Start with 2 sets of the minis, doubling your workload each time you do them until you get up to the prescribed 10 sets. Once you get to there, go ahead and follow the programming to the end.
