    For the hardcore snow nerd, BCA has excellent reports on their website. I personally find the Obsolescence and Analog Avalanche Transceivers report terrifying.

    bcboarderwa replied to the topic long distance tour in the forum 14 years, 1 month ago

    300 miles, wow!

    A few folks have mounted dynafit toes on their splits. Do a search and you’ll probably find a few threads on this. Cutting a thinner pair of skins might give you more glide as well, though they would not climb as well. Whether that would work for you would depend on the terrain you’re planning on covering.

    Thanks a lot for the tips guys! Anyone know anything about Sayulita?

    Sayulita is pretty nice. Small town, without any big resorts. I think the waves are kind of mellow, maybe up to overhead, but not too big. Which was great, since I was just learning to surf. We were there in late Oct/early Nov, and it was pretty…[Read more]

    They didn’t have one at the demo I went to at Stevens last year, but it’s in the 06/07 NS catalog, I think with the specs. It looks like a fun ride. I’ll see if I can track down my copy.

    I’d be into heading up to N. cascades soon. Maybe not this week, but possibly this weekend or sometime next week.

    bcboarderwa replied to the topic never summer plits rule!!! in the forum Splitboards 14 years, 11 months ago

    They can split any model for you ( build one as a split, not cut a solid board). I think they do it on a request basis, so you probably won’t find a NS split in a shop.

    There’s a few posts about this, use the seach function to find them.

    Very true and honestly I haven’t trimmed mine as I haven’t had a problem and I also don’t want to for fear of trimming off to much.

    FWIW, the skins that came with my Khyber overlap the board by a few mm each side, and needed a trim. They came with a trimming tool, which was helpful.
    The skins on my old Voile were already sized…[Read more]

    Nice pics. How did you make the approach? I’d like to get in there myself and was wondering what the best route in is. I know there’s a few possibilities.

    Ditto wildfire’s rec. I weigh about the same and the 165 Khyber is working well for me. I had a voile 173, and yeah, it’s a different board, but felt the length was more than I needed.

    bcboarderwa replied to the topic Ride to Splitfest from WA? in the forum Split Partners Wanted 15 years, 1 month ago

    It depends on the snowpack. I think last year it opened in late march due to the low snow, but we got some dumps in april and it closed again until later that month.

    I’d guess it would be late april/early may most years.

    The DOT posts a projected opening date later in the spring.

    I conceed the point. I agree w/ phil that hero snow is soft corn, that’s what I’ve always called it. This was soft warming snow, not quite corned up yet, but not bad for mid-feb.

    Enthusiasm go the better of me 😀 It was fun boarding, excellent weather, and a good line!
