Bindings sold. Snowboard still available.

I bought the board and TD1 bindings from this forum two years ago and put one more day on it. Since then the board and TD1 binding have been sitting in storage. You can click the link below for pictures (I only have the board and bindings and not those disks) http://forums.alpinesnowboarder.com/topic/45777-burton-factory-prime-160-like-new-and-bomber-td1-bindings-and-more/?tab=comments#comment-462405 Selling the board $100+shipping and bindings $70+shipping.

Just PMed you, if still available, interested in buying the stuff

Everyone, thanks a lot. Very insightful ideas and also make my head spinning, so much info... Have not seen such a supporting forum for a while......

Jim, I am actually quite small in stature (5'7 and 145 pounds)...... And on the moldable liners, does the Bomber site carry moldable liners compatible to head boots? Can't seem to find them. Or I could just go to local ski shops and easily find moldable liners that are compatible to my boots?

Thanks for the suggestion on the choice of board. So much more research to be done! I will dig into it. On the bindings and boots though, they are kind of alright?

Hi Everyone, I am new to snow sport and tried last winter both skiing and conventional snowboarding. Can handle mid-Atlantic Green/ and sometimes Blue. Obviously cannot carve yet. I stumbled one day on this forum, looks like extremely fun to do hard-booting and carve. Definitely beat what I have tried on skiing and conventional snowboarding. I also like the fact that Alpine snowboarding (vs conventional snowboarding) have a more straightforward, straight-on stance and better peripheral vision. Seeking advice here, is below a functional, reasonably good beginner set-up? My goal is to have some casual fun, try a bit carving, can follow my friends to Black Diamond eventually. Since I am already 40 and started late, only get about 10 snow sport days a year, I am not trying to get to advanced level. I talked to my wife and she would only agree on a limited budget for me to buy equipment. I also don't want to try used equipment as I have been burned before. Here are the things I have in mind, all of them to be bought from this website, any suggestions welcome 1) Donek Pilot Board $460 2) Head Stratus Pro Boots $ 394 ($229 boots+$145 Fin-Tec Heels+$20 installation) 3) TD3 step-in $315 Total $1,169 (I think there is also a 10% discount if I buy board, binding and boot as a package)
