D.T.

Couldn't have said it better! I went to do an early hike/ride St. Mary's glacier on Saturday. At 6:20, traffic at the 70/470 interchange was stop-and-go, with a max speed of ~30mph, and stayed that way through Idaho Springs. I was back on 70 headed east at 10:00. Traffic was bumper-to-bumper at a crawl from Fall River Rd. to Beaver Brook. This was a great reminder why I don't do Saturdays anymore...

The material, plate thickness and weight all appear to be the same as the old plate. Not sure what the "real" difference is...

John - as others have said, the actual binding, the bindings angles, and also the stance width all effect your kinematics. I would suggest eliminating some of the variables so you can have a more direct comparison between the two boards.

I'm selling one pair of Catek World Cup 1PL bindings. All bindings are as-is; what you see is what you get. Shipping will be via USPS flat rate service. Shipping is included in the price if you are in the CONUS. I will consider shipping to Canada; buyer obviously pays all shipping expenses/fees. Payment via PayPal gift or, if you're local, cash. ________________________________________________ SOLD - Black World Cup 1PL Bindings - $90 shipped to CONUS - SOLD These are an older design - no transfer plate, no machined dimples for the cant/lift screws. The cant/lift screws have made some impressions/dimples in the base plate - see photos. Come with the rubber baseplate rings. Comes with 7 screw to attach the bindings to the board - 1 screw is missing. Comes with one extra kingpin/spherical nut.

Is microfracture an option? My wife is 10 months post-surgery and everything is great so far...

The carving was good on Roulette and Richards today. Fire Cut was full of soft spots. Crowds were minimal.

We'll be there tomorrow and maybe on Sunday (if my MC race is snowed-out). Don't know about the conditions, just loaded three boards to ensure that I'm a happy camper...

Since the sole of the AT boot will compress ever so slightly when loaded, make sure your shims are glued/screwed into place so that they don't "walk" and work themselves out of place. IMO, you're better off switching to a binding where the heel bail pivots rather than one that is fixed. To me, it's not worth the potential injury risk...

As BC said, not metal, but still a hoot to ride. I have a Woody Burner that is my go-to board freeride board.

Sad to hear RIP

As stated above: He buys his Tanker's direct, not though the NA importer. :)

Prior Brandywine with the "traditional camber" option.

mmmmmmm, purdy!

Kurt - you need to show the profile view of that plate. It will blow peoples minds...

Bigs - Hope the surgery went well and that you're only a few short weeks away from being a freak, again!

Egon, Yes, they are still available, but I would prefer not to ship outside of the U.S. Sorry.

Let me know when. I was making turns on Shelly's carving board in the garage yesterday, my longboard was staring at me the whole times with a jealous look in her eyes...

It seems to me that a DSLR would be overkill. With the quality of point-n-shoots available, I would stick with the ease and simplicity of the PNS. For work I have a Canon EOS 5D Mark II (DSLR), Canon Powershot G12 (PNS - older version of the current G1X) and Canon Powershot S120 (PNS). I choose which camera to shoot with based on my needs at that given moment - all three cameras live in the same camera bag so all are readily available. My G-series is my go-to camera 90% of the time. While the DSLR's have a plethora of lens and accessories available, the G-series is more versatile without having to spend $5k+ on the camera and accessories. The S120 is a nice camera, but the image quality is better with the more versatile G-series. I personally consider the G-series a professional-grade PNS. With the recent release of the G16, there may be some great deals available on the previous model (G15). If/when my G12 dies, it will be replaced with a G1X.
