  1. Of course his carving needs work...that's the point! I don't know about the rest of you, but my goal is to get down the hill with as much enjoyment and as little damage as possible. This is supposed to be fun...and judging from the article and video they had a blast. I'm new to carving, although my son has been racing for a while now. My first time on hardboots was a humbling experience.

    I do think, however, the speed suit has to go. Like the guys in Speedos at Old Orchard Beach...it's just wrong.

  2. After years of searching for an Arbor 165 Munoz carving board, I stumbled across a barely-used Arbor 174 carver in fantastic condition. Between me and my son we currently own eight Arbors (I was surprised at the total), one of which is a Pyramid Ale board I use for display only. He also has an Arbor Rail skateboard. Saying we're fond of Arbors is probably an understatement...

    Now that the season is ending, I'll gather the "clan" for a photo.

    The topsheet on the Arbor earlier in this thread is really unique...love it!

  3. Both are from the AK series a few years back...jacket is the 2 layer Alerion model, gray and black, and worn only a few times. Pants are black 2 layer vent pant with the little magnets on the vent flaps -- these are brand new with the tags still attached.

    I bought these new a few years back when I wore a size M in other Burton clothing. The AK line tends to have a more fitted style...so these never did feel right. I'm now more on the size L scale and they definitely don't fit so here they are...

    Looking for $75 each...cash in person or PayPal and shipping costs. I range from Waterville Valley to Boxborough MA. Somebody can get a great deal on some really nice outerwear here...

  4. I have the step-in race version I'm looking to sell. I'm missing one of the eight screws that attache the heels, but otherwise complete and in great shape. I'm looking for something smaller/more compact.

  5. Custom liners, never molded so they're still "flat." Tape residue in pic comes from storage and should have no effect on molding or wear. I'm right between sizes and ended up using a 24 ilner in my "new" boots. Yours for $25 plus shipping.

    I ride Waterville, live near Manchester, NH, work in Boxborough so there are many local pickup options.

    Carol.

    -- note, boots discussed below have been sold!

  6. I think you have it right. I'm actually all set, just offering an opinion on liners I've ridden. I had the alpine overlap Intuitions in my Northwaves and it worked very well without laces on the liners. Compared to my first pair of softies, which packed out a half size in less than a season, any boot with an Intuition liner gets my vote.
