  5. Prior 4WD vs Donek Axis?

    I think the major difference between the Axis and 4X4 is how we weighted the powder vs carving performance. When I designed the Axis, I build a board that could go anywhere, but I looked at the frequency I felt many riders would see hard pack vs powder. I felt that the hardpack won out in most cases. As a result the Axis was designed to be a carving board that can do trees. I think the 4X4 is more of a powder/tree board for carvers. Chris might say it a bit differently, but the flex on the 4X4 is a bit softer than the Axis. This will lend itself more to powder than boiler plate.

    Thanks, that is what I was wondering about :D I use this board as my carving deck. I really don't enjoy too narrow or flat back ends. My angles are high 40's. For a powder day the shorter fatter SuperModel is my choice. I am 5'3 and 120's# so I want to make sure I can pressure the edge through the carve.

  11. Women's boots

    Hi, I use Raichle (Deeluxe) 413. I wear the smallest size. I really love these boots. I have had Reactors and several different ski boots. The boots I am currenty riding are by far my favorite. The Reactors came very far up my calf. Kids ski boots were better but not the best.

    I was reading in another post that you made a great improvement in your riding. I was wondering what you think pushed you over that edge. Also, you mentioned things related to women carving in particular, I would really like to know what these might be. If you have the time, I am looking forward to your response :D
