BlueB Posted September 9, 2009 Report Posted September 9, 2009 Silly little tread for the end of the summer, when we are all starting to try and tweek the gear... Post your pics here: Carpet carving, tweeking, tuning, or simply just admiring your stuff. Quote
BlueB Posted September 9, 2009 Author Report Posted September 9, 2009 I'll start with today's pics of Joey, who got strapped on his brand new gear, for the very 1st time. Roy is supervising, BlueB shooting the pics :D Quote
Arclite Posted September 9, 2009 Report Posted September 9, 2009 UPZ with raceplates? seems kinda like having an old asym with TD3's... I like the donek, FCII? custom? When I get my coiler sometime in december/january I'll get pictures of some carpet carving AND real carving Quote
BlueB Posted September 9, 2009 Author Report Posted September 9, 2009 Nope, bindings are Snowpro Ltd. They are on par with F2s, with even stronger bails. One of the best value-for-money bindings out there, IMO. With Joey`s whooping 130lbs TD3s would be a bit of waste... The board is Donek Pilot 172. Again, the answer to the tall but very lightweight physique. Quote
crucible Posted September 9, 2009 Report Posted September 9, 2009 Joey can't be as light as 130- I'm a good six inches shorter and I weigh at least 145lbs.... of course I'm an older and less rakish Asian lad too... Good to see you guys spreading the stoke- see you on the Cut in 3 months time, or sooner.... Geo Quote
KingCrimson Posted September 9, 2009 Report Posted September 9, 2009 UPZ with raceplates?seems kinda like having an old asym with TD3's... I like the donek, FCII? custom? When I get my coiler sometime in december/january I'll get pictures of some carpet carving AND real carving What's wrong with Raceplates? Ask TVR, some speculate it took the TD3R binding to get him to drop his Raceplate addiction! If it's good enough for Klug and Pogue, it's good enough for meeg and youg! Another observation, I don't think it would be wise to have TDs in that setup since the UPZ boots must feel infinitely stiff for the poor guy! <embed src="http://blip.tv/play/nGaBgscLAg" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="350"> Quote
Surf Quebec Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Nice video, seems to have long slopes ... I'm quite jealous , only small slopes around here. Nice electro-ambiant-jazz music , makes me think to one of the extremecarving clip music Quote
KingCrimson Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Yep, Boostertwo's videography work is fantastic! Snowfun4you is his blip.tv channel if you're itching for more. Quote
AaronG Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Those are some great vids on that channel. I added it to my favorites! Quote
canuckcarver Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 that video makes me jones even more for some snow... Quote
MUD Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 UPZ with raceplates? That's what I run...... But them again, I like some flex. Quote
Istvan Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 Great video! :lol: Is that a Berserker? Quote

Fastskiguy Posted September 15, 2009 Report Posted September 15, 2009 Hey, I watched that whole video and didn't see any carpet! I looked into this thread, expecting to see some goofy pictures of people trying to get something going this fall to pass the time before snowboarding. Instead...I had to watch great carving in perfect conditions with awesome equipment and fancy white boots. Thanks a lot. I demand a picture of you in your stuff in your living room! Quote

I demand a picture of you in your stuff in your living room! Absolutely! That was the purpose of this tread. It took a wrong turn somwhere... Quote
BlueB Posted September 15, 2009 Author Report Posted September 15, 2009 That picture is too scary! How about posting without Photoshoping, sometimes? :D Quote
KingCrimson Posted September 15, 2009 Report Posted September 15, 2009 Yeah, I was carpet thinking about cutting my hair and dying it blonde so I can be as badass as Glenn Plake when he's described as a Mohican Terrorist in Blizzard of Ahhhs. Quote
BlueB Posted October 17, 2009 Author Report Posted October 17, 2009 We had another carpet-carver today, but forgot to take the pics... Young David got geared up with Silber 168, bindings and Raichles 135. Welcome to the wonderfull world of carving! Quote
