b0ardski Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Where's the option for OBVIOUSLY NOT Burton certainly makes enough profit on cheap crap to support a limited line of alpine boards if he had any inclination at all:barf:and maybe a 2 screw plate binding:smashfrea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen your bindings, maybe if hardbooters like you would buy new **** the big companies would give two ****s about making alpine gear. you, a snowboarder, has probably given Leki more money in the last 20 years than companies that actually make snowboard gear.

Allee Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Who cares? Jake has a smile on his face and life is definitely good. Jake's dog is cute too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekkheadd Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 wtf? every snowboard made can carve. 90% of the people i see with "hard boots" can't carve and just skid around "looking cool". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boarderboy Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 like Jake is one happy, accomplished softbooter, who's mastered the carve and could care less what anyone thinks of his gear, his technique, or his clothes... Vive la glisse!! BB :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact: only Chris Klug looks "cool" in hardboots. the rest of us are dorks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekkheadd Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Interesting comment. Where are you when you see this 90%? The mountain where i work everyday. Hard booters there are few. I actually met one of this sites members there, we can exclude him, (Catamount Ski and Ride area) and from what i've seen of the others its just skidding and people are afraid to tip the thing over. When i see some one with an alpine board i expect to be running into trenches everywhere... no so much from what i see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your 10-person a season sample is no reason to infer lameness on the rest of us. Go to a resort with a real carving crew and then make a judgement.

tekkheadd Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 The ones that i see. Where did i say everyone? I'm not some purist. I'll shred the hill infront of your house all day with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjvircks Posted January 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 For cryin' out loud, people! I just want to do something fun and you drag all this negativity into it. What's wrong? Not getting any? Get with Jake's program or go home! Jake doesn't want to be around you. Nice sidecut and no toe overhang. Today he's carving!
