  1. Holding my breath that Bomber bindings and BTS will continue to be available in the future ?
  2. Something around 180 length preferably with some metal. Feb or March would be ideal.
  3. http://www.tetongravity.com/blogs/New-Snowboard-Binding-Era-Is-Now-5834821.htm I can't imagine binding movement like that being good... Unless your boots are really stiff
  4. Hey, I'll totally take that 4807 of your hands! Traded mine last demo day and been missing it... Gimme a ring 503.333.9089

  5. I've added some stainless steel tip guards and shifted the bindings back since this photo...And here's a vid of planing a 4807 through some real deep'n'wet stuff
  6. hey snowest. just emailed you about a 4807 168. is that what you're riding in your pic? well I just picked up a tanker and am selling my 4807. Would sell it for the $100 that you mentioned in your post. Let me know if you were kidding or serious about picking another one up. I'm in PDX. let me know!

  7. 4807's are outdated pieces of junk. You should get rid of it as soon as possible. I'll give you the $100 it cost you for it, or if you'd rather, I got a swallow-modded Arbor A-frame I'll trade for it.
  8. Rode it Sunday... Noticeable improvement in float and carrying speed through the flat, deep stuff. The tail didn't gain as much flex as I thought it would. Moved my bindings 1/2" back and racked my angles to +45/+27, gonna give it another run this weekend
  9. Yup. Think I might cut it a few inches deeper
  10. I know some of you carvers are into swallowrails too, so I figured I'd share my latest addition...
  11. Whats shipping to the best coast? 97062
  12. Happened chrstmas eve... Pretty pathetic fall. First run of the day, I hadn't even gotten up to speed. Equivalent of just standing there and having my feet pulled out from under me. It didn't really bother me till later that night. Gonna stick to skiing for a few weeks till it heals a little more. Bryan- Ya still interested in the cants.. Been working some crazy hours though so I'm not sure when I'll be able to make it up there. I'm interested in a board of yours to if your willing to part with it :D
  13. So I caught an edge and had a fast introduction to some hardpack... I tend to keep my arms inward because broken wrists interfere with my job, but now i have a broken rib. I figure I trapped my hand between my chest and the snow causing a pressure point. Where do you guys keep your hands/arms when riding?
