Contra 166 x 19.5 x 10.5 scr. Based off of the 2020 build with added torsional stiffness per Bruce. @Jcar Trying to figure out options for my soon to be built Coiler - was this a gloss or carbonium topsheet? If the latter, could you post a close up shot of part of the logo? Edited February 6, 2022 by slabber Tagging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surf Quebec Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 On the left, without bindings, the Coiler Asmocarve 173 with extra rubber. Radius 11.5m I was lazy to find a new topsheet so I reused the one from the Nirvana Energy T4. Both boards have almost the same specs but they do offer a completely different riding experience. I've limited experience riding a plate but the Asmocarve is the the closest thing of riding a plate, it's like riding a plate without a plate. Thanks Bruce! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted more of a ghosted out logo. The flames should really pop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladia Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 For my graphic ( the board is on previous page) Bruce recommended glossy top sheet, but for flaming pattern Carbonium should be fine. It is interesting top sheet for sure, but the graphic pattern can’t be to detailed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to decide how narrow a Contra to order. I've got a Prior WCR 175 with a 17.7cm waist and it's great going edge to edge... I've just switched to UPZ and the smallest shell size, 57/45° so no problems with overhang. Not sure if I should go wider like 18.5 or even 19cm.

dredman Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 @slabber Deeluxe size 26mp, 65f 62r 18 works great for me. Lots of us set binding angles based on board width, to minimize toe and heel drag. Not sure why you would go wider than 18 if your current angles are working at 17.7. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O.o Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 Nice buys! I noticed that almost all the women and absolutely all of the men in the PGS events at Beijing were using these boots so they must be good. I was wondering what boots they were, and this answers that question. The heated boot bag is great and strikes me as something I can make myself, it would plug into the 12V system in my truck.

All mountain stuff: a secret board, carbon things to put bindings on, softer boots with softer top strap and a few different springs. Carvey stuff: an all round size board, a bigger board, a plate, stiffer boots. Other stuff: heated boot bag, new knees, couple of bindings. Zip fits will get rotated between boots. Few things not pictured: an sg sleeve for moving between mountains, hope it doesn't delam, a new helmet, because I wanted to keep matching helmets with @slapos and a hydration pack so I can sweat profusely while only risking minor dehydration.

IMHO, race carving is really hardcore slarving and quite different from free carving and different equipment may apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
