The boards were brandless, heard people talk about him riding brandless kesslers instead of coilers. The question I asked myself was, why on earth would he ride brandless coilers.....? Must say it was a great experience to be able to train with the Canadian team the weekend before the world cup, what a great group of people! They made 17 year old Mirjam feel so welcome and at home during the week leading up to the race that her first WC race became icing on the cake instead of a nerveracking experience! Congratulations to Jasey, Caroline, Kimiko and Tyler with the outcome of the race to the cup event at Copper! Look forward to seeing the complete results on the FIS site.

This is Jasey in Landgraaf last a little over a month ago with Mirjam Brakenhoff, our Dutch hope for the coming years. The boards look like Kesslers, ride like kesslers so, what do you think they are, Coilers?

Dutch Championships in Laax Switserland this year: three of the first fore riders in the SBX were on hardboots!!!!

Go Johanna, Tyler and Phil. Take good care of them Thedo. Good luck, hope to see you soon here in the Netherlands!

Had a bad one last thursday at the Dutch championships in Laax (CH). Caught an edge after hitting a rockplate just under the snow on my first run and got lauched. Hit the snow with the back of my head and was very glad I was wearing a helmet! Don't see myself racing without one after this....

Did you hot wax the board with the bindings mounted? That could be the cause of the problem.......

Shure, no problem D-sub

Where is the picture of the girl racer who rode in her undy's because she couldn't get a sponsor? By the way, started a simular post on our Dutch site, soulboarders.com, Trying to get the female Dutch boarders to pose for a calender.

Would you lube Burton heels and receivers in the same way? I tend to get stuck every once in a while......

I must say that reading this thread makes me feel sick to my stomach! Joel, I hope you recover as fully as is humanly possible. Must say that I've heard of exploding intec heels at least three times the past two months, and thats just here in tiny Holland. Seems like the worst case scenario anyone could think of........... Does anybody know if this has to de with recent production runs of the heels or has this problem been there for longer? I also read a lot of negative comments about Burton bindings, I race Burton Physics with toe bails and the Burton heels along with 2005 Deelux Indy's and like them to bits, whats the problem? Take care and be safe!

Thanks for your reply Phil, Fragile is the word, they need to look into this, the boards are very, very expensive and one would like to think that this kind of thing is a one-of. But as you stated, it's happend before................ Heve fun in Chile and keep us informed. Martijn Nijs (Red) Soulboarders.com The Netherlands

Hi Phil great to see you have fun over there! Over here in the Netherlands we, at soulboarders.com, are very curious how you managed to break the Kessler, any chance of you elaborating on that?

Thanks Guy's, the reason I asked is that i'm trying to dicide what boots to buy, the Virus - UPZ or the old version Deelux Indy's. Both are availeble for aprox. USD 390, -. here in Europe, any thoughts anyone? Martijn

Hi There, read a post a couple of months ago about the modification of the spring mechanisme of the Deelux Indy's. Can anyone direct me to that post, I can't seem to find it. Also I read about modifying the canting system, I can't find that one either. Thanks for the help, Martijn
