Oh yeah, these boots were purchased new from Bomber.

SOLD - We have a pair of Raichle 413's in size MP23/23.5 for sale. Worn less than 20 days. They were too big for Shelly, so she went to a different boot. These are the low cuff, three buckle boot. The lower assembly is size MP23/23.5. The liner are MP23. Pics to come. SOLD - $150 + shipping

no Mario they won't fit you and your cross-dressing ways. Quite looking at my thread!

Well, the link does say: Oh well. Just wanted to confirm before I posted them for sale.

Have a pair of Raichle SB413's with a 261mm sole length. Anyone know what size (MP) this is? It's between a 22 and 24 based on the stamp on the tongue. TIA

I would take the bindings at $75. I would pick them up and pay cash (or PayPal if you wanted the $$ immediately). Let me know if you are interested.

If you would separate, I would be interested in the bindings.

Conditions as Lovie that day were pretty much hero. So no, you would not notice the benefits of a metal board. Yes, the Hangl adds significant weight to the board; only the competent racers really "need" a plate system such a the Hangl. Did you join us two Springs ago at Winter Park when Bola did the informal demo? The melt-freeze conditions were brutal in the AM and death cookies were everywhere. Most of us were having trouble setting an edge. Inkaholic was riding the same board, 185cm SG with Hangl. I wish we had video because the board was vibrating like crazy as it went over the uneven, firm terrain. When you looked up as Ink's knees, nothing - no movement. None of the vibration was transferring through the plate system to him. That means that he was not having to counter or absorb the vibration input - the translation... he was using significantly less energy than the rest of us. I rode a Vampire later in the day and noticed a substantial difference - improvement over a standard construction board. As Ink mentioned previously, he liked the riding characteristics of the board so much he now has one. Yes, the SG has an 18m SCR and you were able to decamber the board and make it turn super small radius turns. Yet the board had superb torsional rigidity. THIS IS ONE BIG BENEFIT OF METAL BOARDS, YOU COULD NOT HAVE DONE THAT ON A STANDARD CONSTRUCTION BOARD! So, yes, you did experience one big benefit of a metal board. Metal is extremely versatile; that is part of the reason that everyone callsthem quiver killers. Talk to Bola, take a metal board to Lovie on a Sunday here in the early season. They are not grooming on Sundays yet; the condition will be firm and uneven. This would be the perfect time to demo a metal board so that you will understand the benefits!

We have a Salomon Ivy 148cm that Shelly rode when she was a newby. She rode it for ~1-1/2 seasons. We'd be willing to let if go cheap ($100) and we wouldn't have to deal with shipping. Let me know if you are interested. Dustin edit - the board is 149cm.

what, now with metal boards you get in a whopping hour fifteen to two hours of riding per day?!? Give it up, we all know you talk more than you ride. :D Matt - demo one and you will be in heaven! Trying to get another Loveland Carve Session organized.

inkaholic knows the answers. i'll ping him and request his input.

meh... they need snow. Not sure about Sunday, might work on the house and mtn bike instead.

I went slightly forward of those marks. Just wanted a little extra material around the hole.

I'm game to swap. I'm traveling until Friday; hence, I have limited internet access. Drop me an e-mail through my profile.

Look here

IMO, the Pilot is WAY too soft for you!!! Don't know about the R17. What about these? Steve's Proton 172 Nidecker 177 Fanman's FC2 Point being, there are lots of boards out there that meet your criteria and are worth considering.

I have not heard of anyone. I typically travel to Boulder to get my boards tuned. If you find someone, please let me know. Life would be much easier if I could drop the boards off during the week since I work in the Springs.
