I am not quite sure what the last three post's are about but the Coiler GS board has been sold! Thanks! The SL and CATEKs are still for sale!

Everything listed on this thread is still for sale as all of my buyers have fallen through so far. Please let me know if you are interested in any of the equipment as it is packaged and ready to ship to US or <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:pCanada.:D </ST1:p</st1:country-region>

Sorry, I made a mistake in my typing! You are correct, the price is $325.00 plus $45.00 for shipping UPS ground. If you can find cheaper shipping just let me know how you want me to ship it and I'll send it immediately upon receipt of payment. It will be coming from:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p> <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:Street><st1:address>1918 Greenwood Street</st1:address></st1:Street><o:p></o:p> <st1:place><st1:City>Harrisburg</st1:City>, <st1:State>PA</st1:State> <st1:PostalCode>17104</st1:PostalCode></st1:place><o:p></o:p>

The waist width of the Coiler SL which is still for sale is 19cm.

The heel pieces are the step in type. You can purchase a set of intec heel pieces to retrofit your intec compatable boots form the bomberonline store.

Actually I thought I had sold the board twice but, both deals fell through. The second buyer was too small for the board and I told her that I would sell it to her if she really wanted but I wouldn’t feel right selling a board that I knew was going to be wrong for her! Sorry for any confusion this has caused but the board is very much still for sale!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

I am selling a pair of CATEK Olympic Series Step In bindings. They have the long plates. I will accept Paypal payments and you are responsible for shipping. I am asking $175.00 for them and I rate them an 8 out of 10 on their condition.

This board was built for a 185 lb. + rider.

Hello, I have a Coiler Pure Race 166 with World Cup Construction 7.8 stiffness for sale. This board was designed for racing but is a great freecarving board. The stiffness definetly makes is better for a racer or a heavier rider. This board was purchased for the 03/04 season and mostly riden in the 04/05 season. There is plenty of camber left in this board! I rate this board an 8 out of 10 on its condition. The price is $325.00 You are responsible to pay for shipping. I will accept paypal payments! Thanks for looking and feel free to call me if you have any questions. Sam Bashore 717-979-3765

The Coiler has sold! Thanks for all the interest!

I am reposting the Coiler 166 Slalom board as the person I thought I sold it to decided not to purchase it. I purchased this board in February of 03 and it was mostly ridden for the 2004/05 season. It is in good overall condition and was build with the World Cup Construction. There is plenty of camber left in the board. I have put travel wax onit and boxed it up ready to ship to your address! I will accept paypal payments. You are responsible to pay for shipping. Thanks for looking!

From what I understand Kessler can make their boards with the Stainless Steel inserts on the rails! I would assume you can insert T-nuts on an existing board!

I was one of the forerunners at the Lake Placid World Cup and was intrigued by the elaborate vibration dampening/riser plates as well. I saw twice as many boards with the binding system on them as I did last year at <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place>Lake Placid</st1:place>. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p> I found it interesting that the only <st1:country-region><st1:place>US</st1:place></st1:country-region> rider to come close to a podium finish (Tyler Jewel) was riding the Kessler/binding system setup. <o:p></o:p> The system is basically designed for vibration dampening by using 1/2" medium durometer urethane bars with probably 6061 aluminum on top and risers for increased leverage on the board. They are made by Kessler and apparently will be available next fall. I was amazed to see how the Kesslers actually work on rutted conditions. They were as soft as noodles never leaving the snow and maintaining edge contact constantly. The mix of Titanal girders, torsional rigidity, binding packs set to the back, taper and soft tip to tail flex works incredibly for the current PGS courses!<o:p></o:p>

The Coiler 186 and 166 have sold but the bindings are still available!

I just purchased two of the 157s and one of the 167 Pilots. The 157s were ridden by two of my racers (One boy, One Girl) both in the 130 lb range. So far they love the boards and have had great improvements in our non-gate training sessions and in the gates. The stiffness has allowed them to perform some of the riding skills that we have been teaching but their current boards can't handle. The boy rider came from a setup of hard boots and an all mountain carving board which he was folding the nose of in some of the drills and in some of the race courses we set. He needed a board to ride before he makes the next step to a full blown Donek racing board! The Pilot seems to be it! The other racer is a fourteen year old boy with size 12 feet! The 167 has a 20 cm waist which is great for his foot size and riding ability. I don't have much feedback on the 167 yet buy; I will let you know after our first race this weekend! Due to a younger racers need to change board lengths and stiffness indexes so frequently as they grow I can't think of a better board than the Pilot. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

You may want to reconsider riding only one of the Intec heels as they change the riding characteristics of you bindings significantly. I just changed from step in trench digger2 back to standards. The two pin system does not allow for lateral flex which can be detrimental in a race course but is nice for carving on groomers.

Has anyone considered converting from their CATEKs or Bombers to a softer binding such as the F2 or Snowpro for racing purposes? I know there was a thread earlier that indicated most of the world cup riders don't use CATEK or Bomber bindings because of the stiffness. Knowing this I am thinking of making the change but want to know if anyone else has done this!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
