  1. $730? The FOMO-ji is strong with somebody.
  2. How much? And what is the riser under the binding? It looks like a nice compact design.
  3. I have a bunch of those, but the problem is that as the amount of lift and cant are somewhat of interdependent. That is the beauty of simple shims under the toe or heel blocks.
  4. I was just about to suggest horse shoe wedges. They are pretty inexpensive and really durable. Depending on where you cut them, you can get a bunch of lift (toe or heel) out of them.
  5. Creative Playthings toys were a huge part of my childhood in the 60's. I remember they were all wood or metal, simple and durable. Thanks for sharing that eBay listing- funny stuff! We also found three flexible flyer metal runner-type sleds. Very cool, but I can't imagine using one unless there was an ice storm.
  6. Snowbasin, hands down. PowMow is great, massive amount of terrain, but for wide open carving, Snowbasin is awesome.
  7. I found this while cleaning out my in-laws attic. It was made by Creative Playthings in Princeton NJ. I haven't been able to find any info on when it was made, but I'm guessing mid-60's to early 70's. Let me know if you have any more info on it. D.
  8. That is a horrific thing to do to a bat. Satchel Paige is rolling over right now.
  9. I am looking forward to your review. I had and older pair (20/21) and the were a good binding choice for lower angle stances. I switched to the Ride A-series and am really impressed with how stiff they are, even when riding 30/27 or 30/24. It looks like they changed the dual ladder straps on the latest version of the Phantom- any thoughts?
  10. I have Ride Deadbolt's (29.0) with Ride A-10 bindings on a 27.0 wide Coiler BXFR and I still have to go with +30 degree angles so I don't boot out.
  11. I've used PAM cooking spray in the past with some success. It's not as toxic to the environment as silicone spray.
  12. It seems like a solution in search of a problem.
  13. I still have a K2 Recon Riser in 154 if you are interested. They were great AM soft boot carving boards. My wife is around #125 and it's what she used. Cheap.
  14. Was that a drone he was using in that video? Pardon my tech ignorance, but that was pretty cool.
  15. Are there any worthy programs that will take good condition used gear (both hard and soft) and put it to good use?
  16. Pretty amazing comeback, but I am conflicted about horse racing given all the abuses at some tracks. Still, at 80-1, I hope somebody cashed in.
  17. End of season riding 3/28- 3/31. Hopefully the snow will last. Anyone else going to be around there those days?
  18. So "stack" your weight but steer with your front knee which un-stacks your weight? Underwhelmed.
  19. Holy crap! Thanks for sharing that video- insane stuff. It looks like some higher angles that these folks are riding, any guesses?
  20. Donek risers? I have a pair if you are interested.
  21. Dropping the price on this. $225 anyone?
