mikel45 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Anyone have any m28-28.5 boots? I have older pair of m28-28.5 UPS Aigner boots, if they fit nicely consider them freely yours. I'll bring them to Vorlage though I might wimp out (let the abuse begin ) with forecasted -20+ temps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I'm not sure I can make it to Vorlage (I'm carless), but I am curious about them... [smartass]Would you mean -20- temps? -20+ would be warmer, lol [/smartass] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Johnny, The sessions are a very gracious offer from Ian to help us with our technique on a weekly basis at Vorlage. Last week we went over balance and all learned from his insight. I believe there are six planned sessions, every Tuesday night at Vorlage. I am driving Rick up for the sessions. If you really need a ride, I can fit you into my car as well. Although I think if you ask nicely, you will find others live far closer to you ... I can't do pick-up because I am East and you are West, but I could pick you up at in the LCBO parking lot at Rideau and King Edward. DM me on Sunday to confirm.

Tabatha Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I'll bring them to Vorlage though I might wimp out (let the abuse begin ) with forecasted -20+ temps. I used to work at Environment Canada, so I can safely say; don't believe anything anyone from Environment Canad a tells you. I am sure they will update that by Monday. I remember at one point they were saying that Sunday would be -20 as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 So I've now got some boots to use, and can meet downtown for rides. So if the ride offer still stands, and someone has a board I could use I'll be happy to go and learn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian M Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Hi Johnny, Good job on the boots. You're not far out of my way, I could probably pick you up. Either email me through the forum or post your email address so that I can get in touch with you. So you still need a board? What happened to either Paul's (loopback) Prior 4WD or that Proton? I'm not sure when Paul is leaving town for Colorado, so you may be too late for that. Do you need bindings also? Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I had to pass on the proton right now, I spent the money on a condo at tremblant next weekend instead. So no board or bindings yet. I'll send you an email with my email address Ian. Thanks everyone for the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Am I supposed to bring extra bindings that I have? I am not sure who they are spoken for. Ian; can you confirm. If I have time and energy (reading I am feeling very lazy today) I will remove them from the burn-board. If not, the burn-board will be at Vorlage on Tuesday with bindings for whomever needs them. I have a request: Can we start at 6:45? I find getting to the hill and being ready to ride for 6:30 really tight. Could we say 6:30 for 6:45? Unless people are really against this and need to start at 6:30. I know you said you would be open to how people felt about start time ... putting it out there. Maybe a poll?

loopback Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I have the 4WD and will leave it with Phil (he's 5 min away) before I leave Tuesday AM. I do NOT have bindings for it though. //Paul+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loopback Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 ^ Right, then I highly suggest you don't ride the Proton that Tabby is very kindly offering. It is a noodle and will not support your weight and skill level. Ian: would that board work for a 5'3", sub 80lbs 12 year old? He rides an old Morrow 148cm on softies now.......If this might work then Tabby please to do not actually burn that board. I may try and get him out his year.

Tabatha Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 It is in the car for Tuesday - I will give it to Phil for you to try and see how it works. If it does; keep it. If not; we burn it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicked - thanks Paul. I have Burton race plates that Johnny can use on that. Was gonna drag my factory prime out of retirement, but your Prior is a better fit. Can you give those six degree cant plates to Phil also please? I'd love to try 'em out soon :) Ian: would that board work for a 5'3", sub 80lbs 12 year old?

I'd love to try 'em out soon :) No prob:D, the sixes were staying anyway. I will hand them off with the 4WD. Hilux: Do you want to try that 157 Airwalk and/or 159 Rossi? They will be hanging on the wall for the next week. I can give them to Phil with the 4WD if you want. Cheers //Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabatha Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 For anyone who didn't get the e-mail ... the session is cancelled tonight. Vorlage is closed because of the weather (as is MSM and Cascade). Please e-mail Ian your prefered dates this week for the make-up session. I am mad - silly weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
