Spark did send a a replacement Magneto baseplate for my first problem (pin moved on front foot/left ski baseplate), although it took very close to three weeks to arrive. All is good so far with the replacement after five days of touring. However, I had a problem with the baseplate of the second of my…[Read more] andbrown replied to the topic RV’ing the Powder Highway in the forum Trip Reports 5 years, 8 months ago Awesome! Just wondering, did you guys do a bunch of research about RVs? Where to rent, best price, best make/model? I want to do essentially the exact same trip next winter and would love to hear about any thoughts and insight you have Thanks for posting Andrew andbrown replied to the topic Malfunction/Pins falling out of Tesla-bindings in the forum Bindings 5 years, 9 months ago Thanks for posting the photo Montoya, that is exactly what happened with my binding/pin. Did you find it took at lot of force to smash the pin back into place, and also find that once back in, it’s now very much prone to moving again. That was my experience. I was really surprised to find that it had moved in the first place, and then just as…[Read more] andbrown replied to the topic Malfunction/Pins falling out of Tesla-bindings in the forum Bindings 5 years, 9 months ago I filled out the warranty form on their website on Feb 10, someone got back to me Feb 12 saying they’d send a new baseplate, but I haven’t received any tracking/shipping number yet, so not sure when it will go out, or when it will arrive. In my email I asked them; any ideas how that happened, any idea how to prevent it from happening, is this…[Read more] andbrown replied to the topic Malfunction/Pins falling out of Tesla-bindings in the forum Bindings 5 years, 9 months ago Hi Burton and Philip (and everyone else) – please have a look at a new thread I created to discuss Sabretooth crampon problems viewtopic.php?f=11&t=16586 Don’t want to take away from this thread talking about tesla system pin problems which is a much more serious problem in my opinion. Sorry to have hijacked this thread in the first place andbrown replied to the topic Malfunction/Pins falling out of Tesla-bindings in the forum Bindings 5 years, 9 months ago the rod that slides into the bracket (not the rivet) was the problem with the Sabretooths, but I moved that over to another thread andbrown replied to the topic Malfunction/Pins falling out of Tesla-bindings in the forum Bindings 5 years, 10 months ago I have a similar type problem – out on Saturday, probably my 10th day of the year, with my Magnetos. Don’t know how to post a picture, but I found the pin under the toe ramp moved “in”, preventing the toe ramp from locking down in ski mode, and preventing the binding sliding onto the pucks in ride mode. A little concerning given the problems…[Read more] andbrown replied to the topic Why Can’t I Skate Ski? in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 5 years, 10 months ago @Matt Wood wrote: Musculature… Oh my… Dry oatmeal Hey now! andbrown replied to the topic Canadian Powder Highway Beta in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 5 years, 11 months ago I don’t really know the area at all, so have been looking around online for info and came across this extremely well put together website with an e-book and great kml file – http://rogerspass411.ca/ andbrown replied to the topic SOLD! in the forum DIY and Mods 6 years, 2 months ago where do you live? andbrown replied to the topic NIB 2 sets of Spark Blaze (2012 models) Black, M & L sizes in the forum DIY and Mods 7 years ago I’ll take the Mediums – will send a pm andbrown replied to the topic Mt Baker Splitfest 2012 in the forum Re: Re: Mt Baker Splitfest 2012 7 years, 8 months ago Wow! Sounds like you guys did an awesome job gathering up sponsors – hope you raise a tonne for the NWAC. I know I’ll be buying a bunch of tickets. Thanks very much for organizing this event.

I like acronyms, since they’re easy to remember. ALPTRUTH is the one I always think of because I always carry an avaluator card in my pack. The Avaluator system was developed by the CAC A – avalanches – are there signs of slab activity in the area within the last 48 hours L- loading – was there loading by snow, wind, or rain in the…[Read more] andbrown replied to the topic Baker Splitfest? in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 8 years, 8 months ago Three of us are looking to hook up with a group that has some local knowledge for a tour on Friday.

I’m not available Sat the 19th but am free before and after. I’m game for riding anywhere from Coquihalla to Duffey and will happy go where the group decides.
