  1. Yes. They are absolutely new and have not been on the snow. I'm asking for what I paid. 24.5 is $80 off their regular price because I bought them at that price.
  2. I am not able to lower the price at all.
  3. UPS shipping price to residential address is 35 USD.
  4. I have both 25.0-25.5. Which one do you prefer? I will check the shipping price.
  5. Yes, I still have the mondo 25.0.
  6. NEW DEELUXE SNOWBOARD HARD BOOTS: - size 24.5 $280 - size 25.0 Thermo $380 - size 25.5 $360 plus shipping I bought 24.5 on sale, but by the time I got them and realized they were too small for me, the sale was over, so I bought 25.0 and 25.5 at regular prices.

  7. Are the bindings for sale too?

  9. It happens, when I am trying to get a low position on heelside turns.
  10. Hi, Boris! It would be good to try it.
  11. Thank you very much for your explanation. If it was just a theoretical question for me, I would decided that this statement "... you will find your self riding the back of the board all the time." is a mistake or a bad explanation and ignored it, but, along before I found this article (and heard about setback) , I noted, that when I did a turn, the board was trying to jump out from under me and I literally found myself riding the back of the board and I constantly feel like I need to shift my weight towards the NOSE of the board. When I found this article, I checked my bindings set-up and it has zero setback - the midpoint between the two bindings is on the center of the effective edge (effective edge - the distance between two points where the board touches a flat surface - please, correct, if it is wrong). So, it fully corresponds with what the article says. The problem is - I do not understand this effect from physics point of view.
  12. I am reading "The Carver's Almanac" (https://www.alpinecarving.com/binding_setup.html) and I have a question about "setback": "After you shift your weight forward to initiate a turn, your center of gravity should be over the apex of the sidecut. In order to achieve this geometry, the midpoint between the two bindings must be set back from the apex of the sidecut to compensate for the forward weight shift. The apex of the sidecut is the center of the effective edge, not the center of the board length. This setback is typically 2-4 cm. Board makers shift the two insert packs rearward by this amount, so that you can mount your bindings symmetric to the insert packs and get the right setback. Some manufacturers, like F2, specify on the topsheet pre-marked stance positions so that you know where to mount the bindings to achieve the recommended setback. If there are no pre-marked stance positions, mount your bindings symmetrical with respect to the hole pattern. However, binding setback has a large impact on carving performance, so it's something you should spend some extra time tweaking: Incorrect binding setback can cause bad habits. If you have too much setback, you will find yourself breaking at the waist to get your weight forward. If you have too little setback, you will find your self riding the back of the board all the time." In particular, about this; "If you have too little setback, you will find your self riding the back of the board all the time." I thought, if we have too little or no setback, we move our center of gravity to the nose of the board and we have to find ourselves riding the nose of the board. Could somebody, please, explain to me why moving our center of gravity to the nose, we will find your self riding the back of the board?
