  1. thanks for the tips.

    i will play with the bindings tomorrow and Ive got the orthodics covered :)

    and on the camera note i got a epic action hd cam. although its fun to play with im not sure it could take video that good unless there was a lot of sunlight.

  2. all the blame is on me not the gear i was just wondering what my boarding related expense should be this season.

    unfortunately i have never had the opportunity to see a hard booter in action otherwise i would jump on the opportunity.

  3. boots, bindings, plate? board?

    I'm a ski racer now addicted to getting good at alpine boardin and kind of bought stuff in a hurry to be able to get out on the slopes and wanted to ask the help of the equipment gurus this year to see if its actually suited to me.

    i ride a 05 f2 speedster rs of the 173 variety

    cateks with some toe lift in the front and lots of heel lift and inward canting on the back foot

    i use my soft/comfy ski boots which are the dynafit titans

    I'm 5'10" and a hulking 220lbs at the moment

    my first few times out i seem to be having trouble with washing out the heel side turn. i initiate it well getting forward and starting the arc but the best way I've found to keep an edge it feels like I'm sitting on the toilet and i don't feel the power and control i have on the toe side turn.

    what are the hips suppose to do during the heel side turn?

    should i be trying a shorter board with a tighter side cut?

    boots just wrong?

    bindings too stiff?

    any help would be appreciated

  4. if you think there is still $300 worth of life left in the board then i'll take your word for it :)

    request at alexander.stwertka at rochester .edu

    and please do ship Tuesday broke my board today =(

  5. This is a giant board 13M of sidecut. It was produced in 2006/07 season. Nice aggressive board but not metal one.

    is $300 a reasonable price for a 4 year old board?

    yyz has the new ones for about $650

    sorry for the questions. just crossing over from the soft boot world
