SunSurfer Posted March 8, 2014 Report Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) My impression is that most people who ride isocline/isolation plates mount them up with the sliding axle at the front of the board. The poll is here to see whether that impression is correct. I'm interested in the reasons people come up with for why they mount their plate the way they do. For now I'll keep my thoughts on the topic to myself. Edited March 8, 2014 by SunSurfer Quote
kieran Posted March 8, 2014 Report Posted March 8, 2014 only 50% related, but i prefer a VIST locked in the middle rather than at the back. in a sense, the allflex could be considered a combination of the two. Quote

For now I'll keep my thoughts on the topic to myself. I will bite ! You must be having a wonderful heat stroke induced dream (or nightmare). I will offer this thought, hinge in front for racing on ice, hinge on back for rough terrain. Since most people are lazy they tend to set up their board and then leave it. Quote
lonbordin Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 Lowrider and I are plate buddies... all plate all the time... ok maybe not always I'm sure he has more powder days than me or double-blacks to decend! :rolleyes: I mostly keep mine in the back. I find the ability to deal with cruddy conditions overweights the response time aspect. Also those two conditions ice and cruddy often co-inside with each other and I find fixed in the back better in that circumstance. Worlds foremost slush carver. :D Quote
