lonbordin Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Paoli has 4 to 5 feet of base! A record for them on opening day. Corduroy everywhere. It was great! Going back tomorrow! Ran the new (to me) 169 Donek I bought from Adam Smith. Felt great. Thanks Adam as both boards are in great shape! :) F-45-3degree-0cant R-39-1degree-0cant ~22stance width PS- I'm so retro with the Cateks and the board... maybe I should make myself a plate... git' with the times. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebionicman Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Wow for southern Indiana that looks great. I am thinking I should make a trip to Indy and grab my brother and head down this winter. He hasn't been on a board in almost 10 years.

lonbordin Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Back again. Snow was slightly more powdery today not as groomed. Same setup for me. Felt good! Their base is truly impressive for this time of year and more natural snow in the forecast. :) Take that boy ridin' Mr.thebionicman! Paoli or Perfect North... it's all good.

lonbordin Posted January 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Been racing NASTAR and just having fun. Running 42R 48F with a little less toe lift 22.25" stance width on the Donek 169. woooo fun. I don't worry about the groom on that board and whoa is it fast.

lonbordin Posted January 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Ran the race board (Liberation) Wednesday night NASTAR 57F/54R... I guess 19.5 is too narrow for me I just feel so much better with a lower stance angle. Back on the Donek 169 tonight for Friday night NASTAR 48F/42R... Wow that feels sooo much better. Set my low handicap of the year on a really tough course. The snow (6" natural yesterday) and cold temps (-11C/-13C) made the conditions fabulous. Must sleep.

lonbordin Posted January 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Ran the gates tonight... sucked. Rear binding came loose... forgot tools... had to hike to car. Switched angles... just was never comfortable. Snow was strange tonight some type of sticky man-made powder... I'm thinking plate... DIY plate. Seasons 1/2 way over must get busy!!

lonbordin Posted January 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 I went back to the narrow (19.5) Liberation today for Saturday NASTAR. 57F 6 0 cant -54R 3 .25 outward cant So different running on this board. Times were good... felt good. I think I'll stay with the Liberation for the rest of the season. Must work on that high angle stance. Back at Paoli for Sunday NASTAR tomorrow.

lonbordin Posted February 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Won't be posting any content here anymore. If you want to contact me my information is in my profile. I'll be posting to my blog (lonbordin dot blogspot dot com) and some in the NASTAR forums. Feel free to PM me. I'm at Paoli Peaks almost every NASTAR race. Check Paoli's website (paolipeaks dot com) for the dates and times. Love to meet up with fellow carvers and racers... If the USASA ever has a GS event under 5 hours away I'll be there as well. I need the competition. :rolleyes: I'm sure I'll run into some of you now and again in the classifieds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
