Hey Guys, I've been snowboarding for 20+ years but just relatively new to hardbooting and really like it, but need to ride with others who I can watch and learn from. I was at Nakiska yesterday and met shortly with a guy and he mentioned this forum. He also mentioned the NES this weekend. I am interested in coming out. I am in Calgary in the NW. I picked up a Prior 173 board and Quattro Bindings with Raichle AF600 boots a few years ago on Kijiji and it seems to work ok, but I am sure there is wisdom to be shared with me. it seems like some guys here are eager to share and get more riders into the sport. I have no idea how old this gear is, but it has been a great intro to the sport, and I am having a lot of fun. Finally I have a way to appreciate the groomers!
