    classicauto replied to the topic Next Year ABS Systems – Any knowledge? in the forum The Gear Room 9 years, 2 months ago

    I know its very rare, but I’ll mention it anyway – an ABS pack my friend demo’d we fired off when we brought it back because the guy said we could.

    When he pulled the trigger, one bag came out, the other blew apart the stitching inside the pack and inflated against his back, inside the bag itself

    The rep told us he’s seen it before – but that…[Read more]

    classicauto replied to the topic Next Year ABS Systems – Any knowledge? in the forum The Gear Room 9 years, 2 months ago

    The ABS packs are terrible feature wise, in my opinion, for anything aside from the 15L for a heli day.

    Using them to tour with is just a series of comprimses. Unfortunatley, getting a better oriented pack means adding weight, considering most of the larger ABS packs are literally just one big cave.

    I’m waiting to see in my hands some of the…[Read more]

    classicauto replied to the topic Heel hang with the sparks burners and jones solution in the forum Spark R&D 9 years, 4 months ago

    The board in this pic has the pucks in full-ahead mode.

    Unless your heel edge puck is nearly touching the center cut of the board, you aren’t in full ahead mode.

    classicauto replied to the topic What difference does it make? in the forum Bindings 9 years, 4 months ago

    I ride 10/11 blazes, there were no burners when I stepped up my bindings into the 21st century.

    I get on alright. But I’m the last person to blame equipment for anything related to my riding.

    I did retrofit newer burton ankle ratchets/ladders onto the binding – but the straps and rest are all blaze.

    Maybe a little stiffer would help? Its…[Read more]

    I am beginning to feel that rocker is more of a intermediate rider technology/gimmick. I think that sufficient float can be achieved with good taper, flex and nose profile.

    classicauto replied to the topic first time out! – a few basic questions in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 9 years, 5 months ago

    Another tip for skins in the field for quick yo yo laps is rolling them up….I would NOT store the skins like this, but rolling them up individually is quick to do, even quicker to unfold (literally just toss them and hang onto the tip) and makes for quick transitions. But don’t store them like that or the hair might bond to the glue.

    classicauto replied to the topic What tool do I need to fit the tip clip rivet? in the forum The Gear Room 9 years, 5 months ago

    it just needs to be peened over…you can use anything that will fit, or just something flat like a hammer and dolly for body work.

    A touring pin would work well like in that link due to the tapered head.
