Mr.E Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 If this lift as high as it looks? Still find it neat to see what works for other folks, and the knee has me thinking about tweaks. from Klug's site PS- Who ISN'T riding Kessler now?

ncermak Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I'm not sure, as I haven't seen Klug up close in a couple of years, But I'd bet that he has Hangl plates on that thing too...giving the visual of added lift. -NBC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.E Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Defiantly on a plate (there are other pics on his site showing it from the front binding. Still looks like there is a big black chunk (like the F2 wedges) under the rear heel, just lots of them. Looks like a flat front foot (again, from other pics).

ursle Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Looking at the rear foot, it's hardly heel lifted, it looks almost as flat as the front, just a lot of boot lean IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I can't tell from that pic. However too much heel lift is a recipe for front quad burn-out if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjl Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Timinor I think rode at the SES with custom homemade plywood lift/cant disks that were like 1 1/2 inches tall and ~30 degrees. He seemed to be doing just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Prokopiw Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 I don't know what his reasoning is for such huge cants but he had some of the smoothest style and prescision I witnessed at OES 07. Seems however, that would also limit a riders abilities in other terrain though I only saw Tim carving on groomers and he was great at that.
