Granted, Slopestyle is not an alpine event, but that's quite an accomplishment for a 17-year-old and worthy of note.
Kudos!

Adidas is releasing a sneaker in which the sole/insole (?) are printed based on the purchaser's foot measurements. The shoes are not cheap, $300 a pop, and in very limited release at the moment. I'll bet this technology will be successful. If it is, and as costs decrease, surely hardboot liners will become available using a similar process. AND THEN, can hardboot shells be far behind? I hope so! It will be a Godsend for people with problem feet and ankles!!

Thanks, Bob!
Of all the motion sport media that spice the Forum, longboard tip riding is my favorite. In my opinion, the ultimate, flowing, fluid man/wave dance.

One of the great documentaries of all time. And one of the great posters, too.
Were it not for The Endless Summer, I probably wouldn't have surfed. And if I hadn't surfed, I surely wouldn't have boarded.
Mahalo, Sir

Have ridden AT's for 15+ years. By BOL standards, I'll never be an even intermediate carver. However, I'm nearly 70, and for my mellow, have-fun style, the easy walking Scarpas are a Godsend.

Did a Google search but can't find details - only a site in French.
Owned a number of Burtons during the PJ days. Fond memories.

Heard on NPR yesterday. Deal, apparently, must be approved by State of Vermont.
Only posting this because, amazingly, no one else has (?) Sorry if mistaken and topic's already been covered.

The softboot carving "revival" in mainstream snowboarding comes from the japanese snowsurfing and carving movement that has been going on there for a while. . Less spins and more style is always a good thing.
BRAVO for the Diamond Blade!! I hope to own one soon for hardpack in Possum Pouch, "The Ice Coast's southernmost carve outpost."

Regular. Learned to skate that way, and so I learned to surf that way. Before all that, I think I (sorta) learned my tennis serve left foot forward (?)
Just put your best foot forward ...

RIP, Bernard "Midget" Farrelly, an early world surf champion, board designer, and revered Aussie sports figure.
Article online in NY Times, but I can't seem to link it.

A great, great shot. More than most "frozen moment" pics, this conveys the flowing rhythm of snowboarding.
And that hat! It says "boundless, carefree abandon and fun!"

Barbarian Days - a Surfing Life, William Finnegan's biography about his lifelong love affair with waves, both near and far, just won the Pulitzer.
I can't tell you how much I loved, and was amazed by, this book.
Mahalo to a true surfer and a great writer!

Thank you! Great review and an intriguing board.
Considering it for use with my size 12 AT hardboots. Seems perfect for the usual groom and hardpack of the South Ice Coast.
Ride on!!
