  1. I'm looking to carpool to the hill for the duration of the event with anyone who's got room to spare in their vehicle. I'll be staying the Country Inn along highway 2. I'll gladly split the cost with you.
  2. hi snowcat_az. try shooting me a message at seven seven 8 316 nine five 8 zero.
  3. The only indication of size I can find on the bindings are "M/L" on inside of the ankle strap, but that might be for the ankle strap itself. I measured about 28 cm from the tip of the footbed to the inside of the heel cup, though.

  6. Thanks, drupi. What has been changed since version 1?
  7. I figured out that it works if you're logged in but not as an anonymous user.
  8. Thanks. Doc says it could be a grade 2 sprain at worst. I'm waiting for an x-ray appointment. I saw you gearing up at the lot behind your truck and I thought "that's a nice Coiler."
  9. I used to be able to navigate to the last post in a thread by clicking on the date/time under the last poster's name on the thread, but this doesn't seem to work any more.
  10. @crackaddict, I buggered up my ankle doing dumb stuff. I would have come otherwise. It doesn't look like I'm going anywhere for now.
  11. There was some good 10 cm of powder yesterday. I kept riding up to the chair for the first 4 runs and had maybe 5 or 6 before 10 AM. I decided to experiment with Dalbello ski boots on the Spectre and clearly picked the wrong day. I thought it sucked having no progressive forward flex. On what was supposed to be the last run of the day down First Sun, this stupid experiment ultimately ended in disaster when the nose hit a ditch. I went over the handlebars, twisting my ankle. I hiked down the rest of the run, went up the chair and asked patrol for ride down. I saw George at the top and said hi. There goes the rest of the season.
  12. I'm going to Kamloops for a week during the holidays and I want to check out the resorts in the area. On my list are Apex, Big White and Sun Peaks. There's a couple of resorts that are on google but I've never heard of before, Harper Mountain and Summit Lake. I'd appreciate any info on any of the above resorts. Revy looks like quite a trek from Kamloops but I'm also considering checking it out.

  16. At the risk of getting the ire of the mods, surely you've heard of this little nugget of profound insight But back on topic: it looks like that lower part of the support is making contact with the boot cuff and top buckle, or it could just be the angle of the photo.
  17. I ride a Spectre Carbon 168 and a Kessler BX 162 which I would guess is similar in many ways to the F2 Eliminator given the purpose. Although I ride the Spectre with hardboots and the Kessler with softies, the boards themselves are worlds apart. The Spectre's softer flex and short single radius is great for taking it into tight places like glades but would it would bore me if all I had was wide open groom. With the Kessler's KST, I'm able to vary turn radius. Also the Spectre's edge hold does not hold a candle to the BX's. The Nidecker has a lot advantage in float, though, with greater taper and setback. Note that the Eliminator will be heavier, burlier. In the Kessler, there's rubber and metal whereas in the Spectre, none of that. If you're a big boy and you like jumps, the Spectre will not last you long.
