nutmeg

Season has now been ended in Austria due to to Covid19. Guess I will get some use out off my snow shoes.

The goggles rarely fog, the glasses do, especially if you ever lift the goggles, letting the glasses cool down. Given that SCOTT Unlimited II OTG LS works for me.

The nuts you hyperlinked are binding parts (part of the F2 baseplate-slider interface). This thread is about the T-nuts inside the boot, keeping the intec heel in place. Afaik the latter do not break regularily, I do not think they are available as F2 replacement part, but the F2-heel comes with both screws and (heel-) t-nuts

Thought this sounded absurdely cheap. Afaict the street prices More like €350/€500.

I would be quite surprised if mountain slope had not talked with Northwave and closed some kind of deal (be it "Fine, just hand over $$" or "Okay, here is a free sub-license") before they started the big investments.

I think any open-jaw wrench should work.

Afaik Titanium and Titanflex use different center disks (Titanal for the Titanium, stainless steel for Titanflex), so I would expect the Titanflex to be quite a bit heavier.

What usually breaks on F2's is not made of plastic. it's the insert nuts that hold the screws which connect toe/heel piece with base-plate. (Especially for Intec, with heel lift). Or the bails, of course, as with every snowboard binding.

Afaict there is a version with fixed bits ("Fix It Sticks Originals - with permanently installed steel bits") and one with exchangeable bits ("Fix It Sticks Replaceable Edition"). But the replaceable edition seems to be somehow the worst of two worlds, less compact than other tools but still with lots of pieces that are easy to lose.

These look great, but hex what is not what I would be needing. If there was a Pozidriv ( for F2)/Torx (UPZ) combination available.

Description of the types would be here: https://palau-ski-boot-liners.com/fitting-guide/?lang=en if one read French. Alpine Classic has tongue design. Looking at the images the Dual fit seems to be a cross between a classic (non-thermo) boot and a fully-moldable liner, featuring a rigid other layer and moldable interior. The Power Fit basically consist entirely of moldable foam apart from the pad at the shin. "mid size pad" is softer than "large size pad". I have been using Power fit/mid size pad (That is "Alpin Thermo Liner Soft" on carversparadise) in RC8 for about a season, and the combination works well for me. Imho tongue designs do not work well for snow boarding since lateral pressure moves the tongue to the side.

Have switched to BootDoc Stability 7 with Palau Liners recently. 50% success.They work quite well on my right foot. ;-)

Tooltonic roto finish

2007 or 2008. Iirc the speed was the predecessor of the "SG Carve". BTW technical data (lenght, radius, etc.) should be printed on the board, you'll need good light to read it, though, reflective grey on nonreflective grey. (The 173 variant has 13m radius.)

The CDN$880 is before taxes as far as I understand it, while the EUR 850 quoted for PB *includes* 19 percent VAT (=EUR 136). And I guess the higher shipping costs from Canada to Europe might sum to up more than the remaining difference.
