Jack M Posted October 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 I think if you read that article and can't tell it is worthless you shouldn't really be on an alpine board anyway. wait a sec... did you just call out Buggs? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carvedog Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 All I have to say is FAQ that is a bad article. I could smell it stinking up my monitor as I was reading.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeho730 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Yeah when reading that article I felt like I had read it, or parts of it, before. I think many of the lines exist, or have been pulled from, other articles. Exactly my feeling. The article also contains some common misconception regarding alpine snowboarding. Perhaps some of us can email him and ask him to visit Bomberonline and check FAQ here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Houghton Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Nah, not ESPI, sounds more like Photodad. This winter I'm working on shape-cornering in my skiing boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

queequeg Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Speaking of mindless drivel (referring to my own here) - I had some time today at the office, so I tried adding updated information to the wikipedia article. Please direct all rotten fruit, spelling corrections, and legal action this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 and here it is again... complete with pic of a North-Face-onesie-wearing-asym-riding-twelve-sandwich-eating dork with his knees tucked. All that's missing is the ice axe.http://www.doityourself.com/stry/alpinesnowboarding edit - nice comment by blueb in 2008, lol. Oh, my achin' ASS!

davekempmeister Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 fast, snappy control is the least of my worries. Why?, because of the aggressiveness of my edges, of course. hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie00 Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 personally I don`t car about the article. it`s the internet and there is a lot of crap. If I'm a new hardbooter and looking for information I will look much further than this one FAQ and will probably find bomberonline. Same applies to any other past time you might start and look for info, you will find good, bad and even funny information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heroshmero Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Most likely the guy is just trying to make money. He's obviously a prolific writer and is making money on the ads that appear around his articles (no matter the quality). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tex1230 Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 I can't believe you didn't do an entry on pedaling Oh, and under notable alpine riders, you should add Alexa Loo - Canadian champ and the reason that speed suits were invented Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecarver Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 I can't believe you didn't do an entry on pedaling Ok... this is the second time I've seen this term used on here today and after searching I can't figure out what this is.

lowrider Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Might be the reason they are no longer legal. Another item to add to the obsolete pile. Maybe the two plankers will snap up these lovely suits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
