That is a 98-99...where is it for sale and how much? I am interested as I need both the 192's from 97-98 and 98-99 to complete my collection and have a tanker from every year of production.
cheers,
sandy
It's on a dutch site, open to offers, no price.

You can contact the seller through the site, no other way. Let me know if you want me to get you in touch.
But getting it from the Netherlands to you is quite costly.

No it's a 192
other foto's
(sorry for the oversized foto, it isn't mine so cant change it)
No info on age or anything, seeing that it is in the Netherlands there is a change it hasn't been used much.

Someone is selling a very old one, any ideas how old?
To old to be useful?

Always nice to feel welcome somewhere
Point is that new developments are always interesting, thats the way things move forward. Regardless of if they work or not. And yeah, I missed the first post on it in off topic. Guess thats reason enough he ?
And if you notice Tex, I've been around here for about as long as you have....

I don't buy the whole desing idea, way to much trouble to just remove the center. Is it even going to be faster that way?
If they did it right then it could be tortionaly stiff, but i'm guessing the platforms get in the way of flex.
Would be nice to hear some one who rode it.
But most important it looks great
even if it doen't work :p -
That is one sweet topsheet

Freecarver can you give me a quote how much the Tanker would cost with shipping to the Netherlands?
Thanks

In the last picture west carven posted you can see three notches. Burton used to make gaspedals that would fit in those. But that was only on the newer models.
Finding some could be a problem, but who knows, someone could have some.
Maybe making some yourself from a hard foam is an option, dould turn out to be a nice project.

They probably picked Swoard's over the competition because it was a better deal and/or they liked the product beter. but the only ones that can awnser that are Michelle and Fin.
I would say it's a good deal for both everyone. It just became a hole lot easier to get a Swoard in North America, and since there isn't realy any other way, bomber more or less has the market to themself.
And now you can test boards, so people can try it and give a opinion that is based on something beside preconceptions. Wich is also good for Swoard.
So you can test it, and it's cheaper and easier to get a hold of, so everybody wins.

It's a Coil from i think 98

What radius does it have?
I'm looking for a new board myself, but i'm doubtfull of the sidecut.
The Swoard has a radius of 13.3m but the radius is a lot tighter when you EC it. But 9m on the average SL boards seems thight to me
So what is a nice radius to just carve with in a medium pace on all sorts of slopes.....

You could try to find a pair of burton's. They're the widest i know, but they're longer for a same size shoe then deeluxe or ups.
Goodluck
even if it doen't work :p
F2 Race Ti lift setup
in Carving Central
Posted
The big block and the thin shim work together as the heel lift.
If you get another set you can mount those as the toelift (don't forget the longer screws), but f2 counts on you only using on set.
If you stack two opposite canting shims together you get a flat raise without the slope to correspond with the other side of the binding, not ideal but i guess it could work.....
