  1. F2 Titanium Race Plates

    in For Sale

    Posted

    I’ll take them if Chouinard doesn’t and :

    1- They’ll fit my 26.5 boots ? Pretty sure the will but I’ll confirm. Or if you happen to know ??
    2- They come complete as sold (I believe they come with one lift?) ? 
    3- You’re ok shipping to Canada? Obviously I’ll pay any extra

    Thanks !

  2. OXESS 163 BX as a freeride/amt board ?

    in Carving Central

    Posted

    Hey guys n girls, just looking for opinion on idea of picking up a (barely) used 163 Oxess boardercross board to use as my do it all (except powder) board. It’s for sale locally for (I think) a super cheap price of $350 (Canadian) !  I’m riding mostly (chopped and lumpy) groomers on smaller narrow hills in the east with pretty flexy old Raichles. I know Oxess make great boards, and believe a boardercross board wld be good for hard charging in hard packed and often icey conditions .... correct ?
     

    One concern is the sidecut radius seems really big (especially for my small local hills) at 16m. Will I have a hard time tightening up turns when necessary??

    Ive been riding hardboots since day 1 on big western mountains  almost 30 years ago so I am fairly competent and still like to put some effort/energy into it. 
     

    Other boards I’m looking at are a Prior 4WD, a Kessler Ride (would be a no brainer but afraid it’s too big at 176 ?), or possibly something more carve oriented like a coiler Nirvana. 
     

    Any thoughts, or opinions are greatly appreciated. I don’t change gear often and want to try to get it right!

    Thanks

  3. b0ardski's garage sale, oldies but goodies for cheap

    Hey Boardski, wondering about the Steepwater … from what you’ve said above it sounds like it might be the kind of board I’m interested in ! I typically don’t change gear very often so my concern is that this might be older design and/or technology and I’d be better off holding out for something more “modern” to come available. Any thoughts on how this might compare to a newer all mountain from one of the better manufacturers like Coiler, Donek, etc ? I do know Arbour had/has a very good reputation for quality, so don’t get me wrong I’m not slighting Arbour. I currently ride an older, shorter all mountain board and I’m also considering just adding a more capable carver like the Coiler Nirvana that mprovenc has listed for the bigger more open runs I unfortunately only sometimes get to enjoy. Any thoughts, opinions are greatly appreciated!  Also would you have any problem shipping to Canada ? Thanks !

  4. F2 titanium bindings S&M&L

    in For Sale

    Posted

    Hey Alexey ! Do you still have bindings available? I’d be interested in medium race titanium (in black if available but not deal breaker). But I am very curious about what “Shred Gruumer” ordered (race titanium PROFLEX?) … is this a different option from the standard “race titanium” ?? Thanks !

  7. Palau liners - new - never molded - size 27

    in For Sale

    Posted

    Hey Dave, I may just be interested in these if you’re ok with shipping north to Canada ? Obviously m happy to pay whatever extra shipping costs. The only question would be just how soft/stiff these liners are? From what I read these come with either large “pads” (?) -stiffer, or smaller “pads” (?) - softer. Do you have any idea ? If not I think the boot model they came out of will give us some indication? I’m replacing  a fairly new (NOS) raichle branded “Palau” liner, which is bit stiffer than some others out there. Thanks in advance for any info you can share!

    Hey Snowcoach, I’ve wiped away my tears and ready to try again ....

    These may be a tad tight, but thinking they might be worth a shot.

    Very little use.

    Are you original owner ? Are these liners stock or something else ? Street shoe sizes are so wonky, do you happen to know what mondo size your feet are ?

    Thanks !

    NH Rider you don’t really want this antique do ya ?!? 😝

    Fact that Whistler is where this whole adventure all started for me back in ‘94 makes it seem all the more “right” that this should come my way! 
    Would be nice companion to my Prior Khyber 

    🙈 Guess I shouldn’t have slept in ..... 😩

  12. Donek Razor 170 with boots and bindings

    in For Sale

    Posted

    Hey Dave, 

    I may be seriously interested in the board, but the boots wouldn’t fit. And lthough I really like the old Burton bindings, I’m not sure if I trust them especially with the thinner (red) bails so not sure on those either, sorry. But I’m hoping you can give us a little more info on the board. The year, if you know what weight it was built for, and maybe some indication of the amount of use it’s seen ?? Are you the original owner or ?
    I read that the Razor was designed as a “soft boot carver”, but obviously you went with the plates/Deeluxe on it ... did the combo work for you ? The boots I’d be using would be (MUCH  softer ) old Raichles, and I’m ideally wanting an aggressive carving/all mountain/free ride board.  If you or anyone else has thoughts on this I’d greatly appreciate any input !

     Based on your price for full package I’m optimistic I could make a very reasonable offer on board (depending on age/use ) and bindings (if they had to go as package) !

    Thanks 

    Lino

     

    Also, is it just the photo/angle that makes the board (esp the nose) look really wide ?? Is it standard width ? I think somewhere reading about it I saw 25 or so ?? 
     

    Thanks again 
    Lino

    Hey Digger

    saw that there’s been issue with messages , been keeping an eye for sign issue’s resolved or an update.   

    Just thought I’d check in. Depending on what jl1, garybergman, and charliechocolate are after (UPZ/Deeluxe ?) with Dusty Bottle in for 1 Deluxe, I may have a chance at 2nd ??

    Finger and toes crossed I’ll keep checking for updates. 

  17. PSA - ANY SMALLER RIDERS LOOKING FOR CHEAP BOARD & BINDINGS - 157 ULTRA PRIME

    in For Sale

    Add pics

    I'm trying (trouble connecting with seller)  to buy the boots in same ad and not really sure if this could be useful to anyone but (kind of) local kijiji ad has 157 Burton Ultra Prime  with some old Burton plates. I'm thinking I could buy whole package and pass the board and bindings on to anyone who could use them for like $25-50 ! Like I said I haven't actually spoken to seller and obviously haven't seen board but hoping its in decent shape, certainly looks to be in pics. I'm not really sure, but thinking those bindings would probably not be suitable for a heavier or aggressive  rider?

    Anyone interested ?? 

    Any thoughts ??

  22. Old Thermoflex expansion ? 26 liner in a 27 shell ??

    in Carving Central

    Posted

    So, my old boots are absolute toast, and I'm not ready to invest in a brand new pair (mostly because I'm really unsure what will work and fit best), so I'm trying to find a way to make what's available work at least temporarily. I have always ridden and want to stay with a softer hardboot so I'm pretty much looking at older SB Raichle/Deeluxe (though not ideal for my foot shape) .  I've scoured the forums for info, compared with previous boots, and as a result I now probably have more questions than answers but I'll try to focus on the main issue/question here. My feet measure 26.7 and 27.1 so from what I've been reading, I think I'd probably be best off with a 26 shell in the Raichle/Deeluxe boots. And so of course everything I'm now finding for sale is listed as a 9 or 27 ! 1 pair of 324s are listed locally dirt cheap, and Snowjob1 has a nice pair of Track 225s (28.5 liners ?).  I have an almost new (maybe moulded once?) pair of the old Raichle Thermoflex liners in a 26.0  I'll try to load a pic or two shortly. SO MY QUESTION IS HOW MUCH DO THE OLD THERMOFLEX LINERS EXPAND WHEN HEATED? WILL THEY EXPAND ENOUGH TO FILL A 27 SIZE SHELL OR WILL THEY BE SLOSHING AROUND IN THERE? Also the 26.0 liners are a pretty close fit but I'm pretty sure I read that's the way they should be before moulding. Is that correct? Will the inner dimensions stretch a little to accommodate a toe cap etc. ?? Is there another "high volume" liner that would work better? I've had great experience with a couple of pairs of thermo liners and have no problem buying new liners if it'll work. Any helpful info is greatly appreciated

    Hey Al,

    maybe some confusion?? That quote was mine, 2 pairs available are Snopros and Hot. I discovered a crack on underside of Xbones and pulled them from ad. Maybe some useful parts, if I can help someone let me know.
