  1. Barry I'll go out on a limb and say you are over riding it. Read back through the SF thread (or any other Thirst thread) and you'll find a common theme of not forcing the nose or curb stomping the board - although they will tolerate it just fine, the key is to stay centered and tip the board up high on edge and allow the side cut and flex voodoo do their stuff. Maybe center the bindings again, and do a few one foot runs on a gentle slope to unlearn the habit. I'm sure Beckmann or others have some useful angulation drills too. Like Ike Clanton says "Listen, Mr New Hampshire nose doggy, nose riding don't go 'round here!!"
  2. Just unloaded my coffee into the keyboard Dave - most amusing!
  3. Hit up Mark from Thirst (@BLOODTYPEZX10R) he might be able to swing something.
  4. I swore never to complain about conditions again after your post last season, but now my amplifier goes to 11. A pocket full of seed might prove useful for that furrow. Keep fightin the good fight. Respect.
  5. Like you stole it Barry. SoFun. Stay centered and angulate; voodoo does the rest.
  6. Goofy or regular? @Shred Gruumerhas a used Thirst SF for sale that might suit if you are goofy (RFF). Might be a bit stiff, but ping Mark to check ( @BLOODTYPEZX10R)
  7. Do you like Gladiataor movies?!
  8. Could well be THE shot that sums up 2020. Covid safe & cranking. Bravo Bobble, respect
  9. Try @Eboot I think he posted re a shipping app?
  10. Need me some of those prismatic boots!
  11. Aggressive & controlled. Awesome. I'd gladly put up with a dodgy toeside if I could go maximum attack on steeps like that.
  12. I really would love to see a mix of both the Rain Dogs and the Blue videos; hardbooters railing groom, slashing and riding pow - something that would get people thinking 'all mountain hb'.
  13. Could be the smell of burning quads?
  14. Sounds good. I will bring something turny and a portable brushcutter for the sumac - should help with upper body rotation in turns.
  15. @svr does the boa make a noticeable improvement to heel lockdown?
  16. Sandy interesting to see the SI version of Ion get an extra Boa strap across the ankle that the regular Ions dont have - should help with response and cure the ballooning of the upper cuff typical of the Drivers. Look forward to the report.
  17. Pretty sure the CC can go wider - paging @BLOODTYPEZX10R
  18. Not surprised the first encounter with 'Madam Death' was exciting - there is some powerful voodoo in those Thirsts!
  19. Thanks @Serajam. After messaging with @hknzgot some great info & will buy.
