I ski a bit and bought some Full Tilt Camos after sking in Flexons last year. My advice is get a pair and some cheap skis too. I will rotate them on to my boards this year. It is all fun. Bob
I bought it new for my daughter in about 1994, She did not take to it so it has very light use. There are the normal nicks and the like. I'll take 50$ for it and you pay shipping. I have a cool new camera and can shoot more picts if youd like to see them. Bob
I called Sean Martin at Donek and ended up with a FreeCarve II 175 I weight 200lbs and it is not all muscle. The wider board lets you go with PJ style angles. It seemed long at first but after one full season I am really enjoying it.
Absolutely go with intec heels. The sad truth is that when you fall you can unclip and get up easily which saves energy for riding.

I'll shoot a picture after Thanksgiving. Regards, Bob
PS the toe bails and heel bails are not identical and therefore interchangeable on the OS2 bindings.

There is quite alot on Gilmour Bias but how much is "a lot" of bias. My board is a Donek FCII so it is like an aircraft carrier. I can dial in an inch of bias and "Boot Out" and "Angles" are still normal. How much Gilmour Bias do bias users use. Is half an inch alot or a little? Thanks all. Bob
I have Intec heels and OS2 bindings with the long plates. I have tremendous latitude in centering the boot over the board centerline. Where does the boot belong on the frontside and on the backside. I could set it up so that i twist toward the front of the board a bit. Any opinions on this Any articles on this. Thanks, Bob
My Catek OS2s came with 12mm overalll lentgh screws with the original elastomer. I now have the D3 elastomer and longer 14 mm screws. I measured the depth of my inserts and I could use longer screws say 15-16mm without bottoming out. I have to tighten them several times in the season. My questions are, viz
1) should I use the longest screws possible?
2) should I use locktite red anerobic adhesive on the screws?
3) Is it normal for the screws to back out over time?
You pay shipping from Mpls, MN 55416.
Best offer, I wore these in Burton Rat Traps. I recall these were a big step up from Sorrels with ski boot liners.
Think twice before making an offer. These may belong in the trash.
