Jack M Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 someone in your group had a cool coat like ours! My PJ7 is in the basement. Too bad I had to sell the Safari to finance it. :( Burton boyz: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr D Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Nice Nitro Diablo, and a Santa Cruz ASF 164 shred what the heck is that on the left? way short and way fat. Did I miss another odd era of alpine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateW Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Those bindings on the PJ7 were my first hard boot bindings. They're from Burton, but what's the model name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tex1230 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 bindings...variplate I think... Shred - sweet pics. The Air on the PJ is good competition for Greenglow's pipe shot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr D Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Those bindings on the PJ7 were my first hard boot bindings. They're from Burton, but what's the model name? variflex was the name of the five hole's and variplate was the next model that had the 3d plates in the center threehole.

snowboardfast Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I remember when those blue Burtons came out . They were selling for 79.00. I don't see how they are worth 2500.00 as a colectible item. Maybe 200.00. I started on a Snurfer which came out before the burton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Buggs Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Shred, love the multi colored Raichle "Snowboarder" Boots, I had a set then went to the 121s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 variflex was the name of the five hole's and variplate was the next model that had the 3d plates in the center threehole. Pretty sure they were always Variplate. "Variflex" was the name of a cheap skateboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeoffV Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I still have an asym M6 that I ride once a year at Tuckermans (2nd pic). I'm heading up there in 2 days to end my season. First pic is at Toggenburg, NY in 1991. We should have one retro day at the ECES next year, that would be some hilarious video/photo footage :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest azrcd5 Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Few weeks ago at Snowmass saw a guy on old Kemper riding the narrow old school stance. Had the Kemper three strap bindings, but the best part was the original Kemper green purple etc. boots he was in. No pics :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
