  1. Corey, if you check my post I called You moderatorS, not personally you. I have know idea who was on Duty to cleanse posts if there was something unpleasant written about current Bomber owners. I was just simply asking what's wrong with Bomber when they do not carry threir flagship binding for over half of the years. Later somebody put there link to article about Aspen nonprofit and the tread disappeared. If the debate was let go like for example this thread I and maybe somebody else would most likely did not waste money on lost cause. That's connection. So if you were not censor on duty my apology to you. This forum most likely will be gone soon, one thing I did not like was censorship here for which I really did not see too many reasons. The example I will never forget was when somebody deleted thread about Sense snowboards because did not like top sheet of one of board. Lucky for me that individual did not catch my Coiler.
  2. This is getting sicker and sicker. It looks like they ripped people off to the last day. I was offered $100 ripp off bonus if I pay for MK during TTC. Lucky for me I don't like top sheet graphic on that otherwise great board or I would be now most likely in deeper hole. Wow Jack is evolving. Check page 2; they were almost saints and I was scum back. On positive side, there are companies with great customer service. I order Regular SW from Donek, in two hours I got e mail and call from Sean to verify some details and binding was shipped in the afternoon.2 days ago I order protective foil from Tognar, it showed up today. By the way if somebody is looking for it buy it as soon as possible, they were out of foil for more than a year and they have good price. The foil really helps to protect top sheet from idiots on slopes and at lift lines. And it is probably only protection again oxidation and scratches on mirror polished top sheets.
  3. Yes Cory, you moderators did great job to censor any mention of Bomber problems so more people can fall in this scam. I remember very well when my post asking why there is no normal SW for sale for half of the year. And you guys delete it imidiately. Thank you very much, I did $300 order of spare parts what I really did not need to make some business to Bomber last weekend, evidently I can say bye to my money. You can delete my post here there are still a couple forums around the world where I can post it. This is big disappointment for me personally. I was on Bombers over 20 years, there was no any Bomber forum when I got my first pair from Fin. Standard SW was probably best binding ever made too bad it took such a bad end. Maybe I was last idiot to make an order with Bomber. I wish everybody here to have nice winter, it was nice to ride with some of you guys during these years but every fun has its end I guess.

    UPZ ATB

    UPZ ATB 26.5 used a couple days. Original liner never used. I found all UPZ are too tall for my taste and they can't be modified.$225 plus shipping. AT adapters for these. I used them for more convenient set up with Bombers. 26.5 you must put toe and heal blocks too close together. For AT hiking UPZ boots would be torture. $50. Set of springs for UPZ. They are made by Drupi at Italy. Much better than original spring set. $50. They will cost you over100 shipped from Italy. Or all together $ 275 + shipping.
  6. I am looking for complete sidewinder split board binding or just adapter plate to Voile plate.
  7. Well last day was not good at all, first run second toe turn and dislocated shoulder. 4th time. Season is over for me for sure.
  8. Today softer from the start. Klimax was great on sides
  9. I was at Portillo Some time ago. The weather can be problem. For half of the time zero visibility. It was so bad racers from Italian national team were skiing down to hotel with snow plow. When it is nice it nice. Old resort no people empty slopes. Grooming mixed result.you can take heli trip also. They have some very strange lifts. One is 4 people T bar. "Real fun" on the board. Food service in hotel was top class, also a lot of avalanches around and earthquakes. We got nice shaker one day.
  10. I am there. Less snow than last weekend but better condition. This one will be last for me. It is getting down really fast.
  11. Mammoth was very soft and it his getting down fast, compare photo from a month ago. Race course was the best after they open it to public. Next weekend will be probably last for me.Race course
  12. Mammoth was strange today, heavy wind, they do not run gondola entire day. Zero I mean zero visibility above McCoy for half of day. Snow very soft and slow. It is getting down compare 2 weeks ago. A lot of surface brown contamination, dust blown from west side of hill. It does not help.
  13. Too bad I did not bump in you. I was there with two more carvers from KWood. I will be there tomorrow til lunch time. Same jacket.
  14. Mammoth is pretty good. On the soft side this weekend, but it's right for chair 23. Max did it a couple times on his skwal
  15. Anybody going to Mammoth this weekend? I will be there all 3 days.
  16. Barry I am going to Mammoth this weekend.
  17. I broke mine several years ago. Small crack and the rust made the rest. Funny was a week before I was talking to another hardbooter about broken bails and I was telling her these are in destructible.
  18. Soren did not have wide machine to do base first year when he opened his shop, now he has everything for several years. For Jim, he his also hardbooter in his younger days and he is taking care about ski for many racers around Tahoe. Like I mentioned earlier, he is closing this Sunday for season and going back to Europe to wind surfing at Mediterranean sea. He has been taking care about my boards for years. He will be back next winter maybe for two more years before he will go to retirement .
  19. Good luck. I was in the same situation. I broke heel piece on two Head boots. It was always front one with regular TD1 and 2. It was probably the weakest point of these boots. The first generations of HSP especially regular Stratos no Stratos Pro was the best, by my count. I think they change plastic composition later. I tried UPZ RC 8 and ABT but they don't work for me. So far the best for me I combo AT boots Scarpa/ Dynafits Zzeros. Currently I am trying 0 degree/ Icelantic ski boots. They are actually Deeluxe 325 with regular ski soles. I did some significant modifications to these, still do not like them at powder and bumps even I am riding them in locked. Probably not grinding in summer.
  20. Barry, stop at Soren's place. He is closing on Sunday for summer.
  21. I could make only one day, but it was great. To meet bunch of old friends, demo a couple boards and even take lesson with Jorg. Thanks Jim and Angie for everything. I think Bomber made some positive impression at KW. A couple people asked me over weekend about carving convention.
  22. I am looking for yellow or another soft tongues for Raichle/deluxe boots. Yellow was from 225s around 1999 boots. Also 123 boots had purple tongues if I remember correctly. Red ones are too stiff. It looks like after several years I dialed boots and I would like to have spare set of soft tongues.
  23. if you still have I would buy them. Ladia
  24. I just did old pink Raichle liners. 30 minutes at 150F oven. It worked well.
