I live in Doylestown and do boot fitting at Buckmans Ski Shop on Thursday nights. Drop me a line if you want to ride or need some space to tune. email me at walterduke@gmail.com
I know a few people that used them back in the day for both plate and soft. Id I remember correctly they were lime green and pink. The problem was the sole at the lug would compress and you would release. Not a good thing.
This exact Pig was my first board. It is still fun in very soft stuff. I think I picked it up on ProForm in 1991 for less than 200 clams. Mounted and fixed position Emery binding on it.
