C5 Golfer

I ride Arbor Munoz 170 with Switch step-ins (this old guy does not like to sit down and buckle up and the Switch is the best stepin in MHO) Vans Performance Boots The thing here is I have these boots for about 3 years and they look new cuz I ride soft set up only 10% of the time.

Do you still have the 168? Please let me know

The 178 volkl, do you have a picture of the top you can send to me by Email?

I ride a 20.5 -21 inch stance and have an inseam of 34" @ 6'3". tried 19 or so and it was ok on groomed smooth runs with very few people on the slopes but since that is far and few between I opt for a little more control in the crap stuff and lots of people so I feel I have more control with a little wider stance. My 2 cents

I will be there on the 29th.

Jon I can do a 22 or 23rd of Dec .. any chance you can change?

Art.. I can do a 29th or 30th at Crystal. Maybe we can talk Sean into riding with us. Al

Art.. I am planning on the Jan meet but can only attend on the 10th-- hope ski school has not started yet! I can go on the 29th or 30th of Dec , maybe others out there can too and we can make a group ride. My son is going to try out hardboots tomorrow at Stevens so he may join us in Jan as well.:)

My girlfriend and I will be riding Blackcomb on the 13-16th. I usually ride all black.. helmet,coat and pants. :)

Watch the old fart talk... we intimidate back!;)

(so more scientific and proven methods are appreciated) Mine are easy- I simply turn the seat heater on so when I get there I am fully warmed up and ready to go.:D

Can't really say which is my Favorite -- I have Volkl, Prior, F2 and a Coiler coming and like them all equally. I probably have the most time on my Volkl 178

Stevens is opening on the 25th... anyone planning on going up over the next couple of weeks?

Yes, please email me your info so I can put together a PNW Crystal/Stevens Carving list. email me your name , address , phone number (s), email address, and I will publish a directory of PNW Carvers. I am already working my old man legs so I don't want to hear you young bucks saying you're tired after a couple hours of hard riding when we meet up. The way it is snowing I bet we can get together in December for a one day Sat or Sun ride and I should be getting my Coiler soon. My email is Niblick5@msn.com

Any chance you are coming with someone? If so the car pool lanes will help out.

Jan 9 and 10th sounds good to me. Tricia and I are in Whistler on the 23-27th of Jan to celebrate birthday. I'll help organize if needed. Still retired but the company I mentioned a couple of weeks ago is threating to send me an offer I can't refuse. I'll have to make the day of Jan 9th a condition of any employment agreement. Looking forward to riding with you again Sean! Al

I have one of the Prior 4X4 in my collection also ,, mine is a 174. It is usually the first one to come out each season after the rocks are covered. where in Canada do you ride?

not familar with Fleece.. where can I find out about this process or materials?

I agree building stuff is cool... paint it and don't forget to add flames to the front. Post a picture of it when you are done. Are you going to build the molds yourself and have you done this fiberglas stuff before?

I'd hazard an equal guess that 98% of the snowboarding populace ride soft boots.:o

I would like to see a different thread section for POLLS. So we'd see three branches of selections off of the FORUMS. 1. Carving Community 2. Classified 3. Polls How about it FIN? possible?

Most of my stuff from Bomber except boards...My Volkls and F2 were used, my Coiler direct , soft set up stuff local shop. Like to Support Bomber as much as I can -- my way of Thanking Fin and Michelle for all the good hard work.

Verrry interesting.. would have thought the <170 would be 3x more than the rest, but it is a nice to see bell curve.

If they do I hope it is on the East Coast!:) :D

Art: My 1st and 2nd was at Echo Falls GC , hole 14 and hole 5 , the third was at Newcastle Coal Creek course , hole 16, I was playing with the Newcastle Pro that day - he couldn't beleive it when he saw it. Yes, lets do a NW carve day, it would be good see and meet a few guys I see posting. Maybe we should start a new thread for this on the new forum.:)
