Bump for the new snow at Vail . Someone must need more stuff Millen

Same thing here. Here is my cell # - 708 655-8219. Millen

I'll be there Saturday till Tuesday. I am not the best around, and I have a knee that's bothering me, so I will take it a little slow this time. Millen

Well, i got a McDavid one with hinges and a Mueller one with just the stringers. I'll try which one works for me. M.

He-he, I am 1.9 ;). Great to have diesel nowadays. Great mileage, still being able to play after a :few: things done under the hood . Anyway, hopefully, you'll get back to the turbo thing. BTW, which brace did you get. i went to SA yesterday and saw a whole bunch of them. Do you have the one with the actual hinges on the side? Please let me know. We are going to vail next week :) Millen

1.8, tahnks a lot. I will go to SA and check them out. BTW, 1.8, is it the 1.8 turbo ?

Where did you find the neoprene braces with the stingers? I think, this might be a very good thing to have. Mine is just plane neoprene.

Got that one already. last year from Gart in Dillon :). It does work...........somehow, but again, I think I have to work towards the cause of the knee pain first.

Wow, I could not believe it how many people actually have that. I am jumping in this thread instaed of opening a new one. So, knee pains are actually quite common around ;). I am looking for the causes of mine. I started snowboarding back in Europe in 1994. Due to moving accross the big water and all the consquences of that ;), I could not snowboard for a while. 3 years ago I started running. Never ran before that seriously. Now I am doing marathons - PB 3:16. Missed qualifing for Boston by 9 seconds - bummer :). I thought I was in pretty good shape. As far as muscles are concerned (and lungs) I think I am. Though, last year in Vail, after 2 days, my front knee started hurting big time. I had just gotten a 173 RT (up from 168). After those 2 days, I gave up on the RT and rode a 159 SPline - thru a lot of pains. After we came back home, I rested the knee from board + running for 2 weeks and the whole summer everything was fine. Now thsi year, after just one day on a small slope - same story - front (right) knee is acting up. I have been stretching after each run and I run about 30 miles/week. Now about the set up - RT 168, Catek OS2, 47/52 degrees with 4 degrees heel and 3 - toe lift. Beofre I read the article from the canadian site, i did have very little cant - like 1 dgree on front and back foot. After I checked my knees - well, bummer again - I can put 2 1/2 fingers between my knees. I SInce than, I have removed all canting and left the lifts. We are going to Vail next week and I will report how it feels with different set ups. After all, we have solve this knees issues, dont we ;). Thanks for listening! Millen

Check it out in the "For Sale" section. It's an oldish board, but has no more than 25 days on it. Millen

bumpity bump for more snow

I have a Spline - shorter than you would like, but just in case...... Look it up in the "For Sale" section

Check my post. I have Niedecker Extreme 161. Oldish board, but has not seen much snow at all. base and edges are in excellent condition. The best slalom board I have had so far. Selling it because I am looking for a bit longer boards now. Millen

I have 16x205x55 setup :). Are you sure your set up is what you posted ? Millen

Well, what type of Jetta do you have? Actually, what wheels/tires set up do you have. When I went to their website and looked up for chains for Jetta, the recommended sizes are either 3.0 or SPM (with stock VW Jetta set up). Any ideas

Do you still have them ;) ?

Does anybody have a spare or one not being used or needed? Also looking for a OS2 Power Plate Kit. Email @ m_peev@hotmail.com. Thanks!

.... you got e-mail .

For the time being, I am selling all of them as combos. Millen

replied to your e-mail

Nobody wants these boards . Anything :D .

\\Not to jump in your thread, but how exactly did you "lower" the price :lol: ? Or the first price was on CAN $ and you "lowered" it to US $ . Just kidding ;).

I do have Burton plates, not the Race ones though :(. They come with a very nice Volkl Spline :D . I have them posted here. Millen

As I said, I can add more details and pictures by request. Millen

Thanks Mike and Thor, I toally agree that 160s would be a little short for me. On the other hand, my considerations for that are: I had a RT 173 GS and I think it was a bit too stiff for me. I injured my front knee very badly without any falls. Next, I have also a RT 168 GS and I love it. It's not too stiff and feels great. Still, I think, I am in the right place to get the right advises and..............hopefully, the right board . L8r ;) , Millen
