SOLD!!!! I have a Prior WCR 183 Metal for sale. Board has been high polished for that amazing look that everyone has been talking about. It is almost a mirror finish. One more once over with the polish and it would be perfect. You can see the reflection of my vehicle in the pic. It is was a 2007 demo board from Prior. So there are visible signs of use on the topsheet. Nothing but surface scratches. There is one small ridge behind the rear binding that Dean at Prior said they repaired before it was sold. Doesn't affect performance of the board and if you are using TD2's or 3's it covers almost all of it. The base is in great shape as are the edges. $475 + shipping to North America only. Save big over the price of a new one. Paypal only accepted. Specs - Length (cm) 183 Effective Edge (cm) 156 Nose Length (cm) 21 Tail Length (cm) 6 Nose Width (cm) 24.7 Tail Width (cm) 24.3 Waist (cm) 19.5 Radius (m) 13 Taper (mm) 4 Insert Setbacks (cm) 2.5 Stance (in) 17"-22"

I have a Burton R17 Addicted. It is really soft. Way too soft for my over 200lb weight. Mine is a 154 that I use when my 10 yr old is on his alpine board and I need to be manoeuverable. It is very easy to ride, but I know that I can't push it hard without feeling like it will fold up. A lighter rider would have no issues with this board though. D.

Good points. I found that I was always worried about the bindings working themselves loose over a period of time with Catek. I know that you should always check your bindings fasteners to make sure they are tight. The problem is that when I checked my Cateks, they were always loose. With the TD2's, always tight.

OS2's are fine for finding what cant/lift you like. Then buy Bombers in that configuration and forget it. How many of us actually change our setup once we are comfortable with it. Maybe lots, but not me. Simplicity rocks! D.

Roll me another while I watch this gif............... D.

They ARE the alpine snowboard industry today! And thankfully, they are dedicated to taking this sport to the next level. And this level is great already! D.

+1 D.

Man... watching those vids on youtube makes me want to hit the Hamilton show this Friday night. What did you think of the lighting/vids? D.

If that was done this season, I am jealous. Winter is knockin at the door out east here, I wish I was where you were! <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IlcI7WhbEw&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IlcI7WhbEw&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> D.

Looking forward to another great day out at Osler. Thanks Chris. Darren Eagles:biggthump

Let us know what you thought of the show tomorrow. And when pay attention to Trent when he is playing that little keyboard showing in that last pic. D.

Four words. Go to the show! I have seen them 8 times since 2000. I regret not having seen the early 1991 vintage but 2000 was very much like the Woodstock 94 show. Dirty, knocking sh!t over, breaking stuff, throwing instruments around and off the stage, running into each other etc. But since then Trent has toned it down a little. There is alot more production in their shows now. The show I saw a couple of months ago had an unbelievable stage show. Stuff I have never seen before in video technology and stage set up. And I go to alot of shows. And they changed the setup constantly throughout the show. Watch carefully, you might see an instrument or 2 leave the stage or end up busted up. Enjoy it! D.

I'll take them. email sent. D.

If I am not mistaken, I thought I read that the TD2 cant disks are exactly the same as the TD3's. So interchangable. But the screws might need to be longer. D.

Ernie, I think I heard you say you have another Coiler in the pipeline. Let me know if you want to get rid of the 172 when you receive your new baby this season. D.

That was a great overview! Thanks Bruce! D.

Video of Pat's day......... http://snowboardermag.com/videos/flash/high-velocity-snowboarding-vol-1/ The funniest is the comments entered by Snowboarder readers at the bottom of the page. D.

Has anyone been in contact with Bruce lately? Has he got any groundbreaking scientific magic carpet designs for this year? Last year he had a few new designs that everyone was raving about. D.

email sent for TD2's D.

I think you have to be on their mailing list. You can do that by registering on their website. If you hit their site today, there is an update on the front page that is almost the same as the email sent out. D.

Why? Your points were spot on. And Catek reacted with their email notifications. This is how business works. The customer expectations were not being met. Complaints were documented. Company responds. All is good. D.

I just got the same email from Catek. That is all anyone was expecting. Even if it was just a post on the website, it shows people that there is activity behind the walls at Catek and their money hasn't evaporated. It is great that "they have got OS2's piled to the ceilings and extra hands in house". Sounds like it will be a good year for Catek. D.

Lehman Bros was good company that alway got their customers the product too............. look how that turned out. Ok everyone, nothing to see here. Everything is fine. You WILL get your product. Move along..............................

How do we pre-order. I don't see anything on the site that speaks to that. D.

I don't see hate and hysteria here. Maybe I should remove my "angryfire smileys" from my other post. I see people who have tried in vain to contact a company that has ignored them. And this is their last resort. The fact that they had to air the dirty laundry out in the open is Cateks fault, not the customers. Whether the ignorance is intentional or not is irrelavant. You have my money. I expect and deserve your attention, on my terms. Or shoot me a refund and I will spend my money elsewhere. The fact that this thread has gone this long without a response from Catek to here or the customers directly speaks volumes. D.
