lonbordin Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 So I went out to the garage for the first time after returning from our 25th wedding anniversary trip. Well what do you know... someone was here and they took some stuff with them... a really odd and heartbreaking selection. My beloved UPZ RC10 Boots- https://goo.gl/photos/ndUorG2Z9Va3K9mNA A Bomber isolation plate(It will have only one spiky stomp pad)- https://goo.gl/photos/7VouENHQRerfg6rp9 A BS Liberation snowboard- https://goo.gl/photos/XNoizf3PmTk9wPcB6' (top) https://goo.gl/photos/RdGV3gzQNUoyBDxv9 (bottom) And a DaKine bag that looks like- I just got done with the police. All this stuff was near the point of entry so most likely they just grabbed and ran... I'm slightly depressed. Please keep your eyes out. Thanks. I've already contacted the local pawn shops and checked Craigslist and eBay. nada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonbordin Posted March 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 (edited) FUCK FUCK FUCK... I just realized that they took my Donek REV. FUCK! Donek photo- https://goo.gl/photos/HnfxbbPdSejxNDH79 It was in a Bomber bag (white logo). Guys... There are no REVs like this one. If you see this board let me know.

lowrider Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Indiana a hotbed of Alpine snowboard theft. I really hate that feeling of helplessness you must be experiencing. Sending pics.of missing gear for local ski hills to post might help. Any neighbors with video cameras ? Hope your wife is at least as sympathetic as the BOL community.

lonbordin Posted March 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 I'm a bit freaked right now. It's really crazy as the thief(s) targeted my alpine stuff. The left my son's skis alone. The left our bikes alone. They didn't take my tools. It's fucking crazy. My new Coiler just happened to be in the house. It's not like they can pawn it or sell it. The folks at Paoli and Perfect already know. I mean really. A modified Bomber plate? An older racing board that is really unique. A one of a kind prototype REV. And my @#$%! boots that were perfect. Slippers! DAmmit. Sorry if I'm bringing anyone down... I just needed to vent. I have a pair of backup boots and the intuition plug liners feel alright in them. They didn't take my sidewinders and I have my new Coiler. Shit they took my repair kit... FUCK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Brammer aka PSR Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Well, because that gear IS so unique, that considerably narrows down the Perps involved. Any thoughts on 'wanna-be' carvers nearby? Talk to the local ski-area managements, and Patrollers/Instructors/Lifties, and bring Photos!! If they're anything like within 200 miles of you, it's a Small target area, and many hills have cameras with 'live feed'. Getting the news out, locally, will likely generate a solid lead. Good Luck!

While I'm no PSR I'm really well known in the area and I've already talked to my local ski hill folks. That said everything around me is closed, probably for the season. (There's only two bumps, Paoli Peaks and Perfect North, within 200 miles of my house.) I'll talk to my Perfect folks tomorrow. Thanks!

Zone Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Sorry lonbordin, that's really upsetting. Who on earth steal only alpine gear? ? It's not like we are huge community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Brammer aka PSR Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Wow, good luck then! At this point, the Police are the best bet, sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piusthedrcarve Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Wow.. Sorry to hear that. I don't know if you are already on it or not but try post your photos of the stolen gears on Alpine Snowboard Trader in Facebook too. Since FB now has a marketplace, the thief may try to sell it there. At least, more eyes will look out for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like we are huge community. This is the topic of discussion at my home... lots of crazy theories... no evidence. Just upset folk. Right now I'm just really happy they didn't take my TD3 SW for whatever reason. I'll have a full setup to visit Spirit at the end of next week. Just trying to stay positive... it's not working though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zone Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 (edited) The snowboarding Gods are saying: lonboardin, son, you need to simplify, only need one Coiler, a pair of TD3SW and a new pair of yellow .950.

I'm sure he won't beat the s*** out of the guys who didn't steal anything if he never finds them. The Snowboarding Gods might not come in for not a little non-wrath themselves...

Corey Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 That's awful, and random. Best of luck with either getting it back or getting an insurance payout. We've seen stolen goods come back home to Bomber members before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafcadio Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Ouch. So sorry to hear that. I'll stop complaining about the unseasonably warm weather now. There's no way anyone will get away with that Rev on any hill where other carvers from the community visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Sorry to hear about this Lonbordin, I will keep an eye out in the spring season in the PNW. You never know who / what might turn up at Timberline in the spring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
