Everyone I’ve talked to loves the a6000, especially how fast the focusing and how many frames per second they can shoot. I picked up the a7II and the continuous autofocus works well. Sometimes it loses the person depending on lighting, shadows and such but other wise its a pretty amazing feature. It’s amazing how…[Read more] HansGLudwig replied to the topic 2015/2016 Deeluxe Spark XVs in the forum Boots 5 years, 2 months ago @SanFrantastico We all know TEX and Likestoride are hard-charging dudes; but how did the boots hold up?! @DHwreckage – The propaganda says ~10 mm shorter BSL Cbalke replied to the topic SNOW ! in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 5 years, 3 months ago @sanfrantastico you guys scored a nice sheet there.

HansGLudwig replied to the topic New Splitboard Advice in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 5 years, 5 months ago @SanFrantastico – Welcome back!

The camber sections load the board so it presses into the snow for edge hold and the rocker in the middle…[Read more] jimw replied to the topic Out of Control in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 8 years, 5 months ago First off, I see that many of the folks who have already responded are already part of your CA crew, and I think we’ve all seen each other do that exact same thing at least once. So maybe we should stop riding together. 🙂 But seriously, I’m surprised nobody has mentioned the obvious.

In other words, a big radius board can do both big radius turn and short turns, while a small radius board can only do small radius turns. That being said, it’s Tom Burt and he rides a 172. I disagree. I rode a…[Read more] Tom Burt replied to the topic Winterstick Split in the forum Splitboards 10 years, 3 months ago @SanFrantastico wrote: This is awesome. Congrats!
