    Draizuh replied to the topic Cutting skins for boards with magne-traction in the forum Splitboards 7 years, 2 months ago

    My skins are G3’s on a baord with Magnetraction and they are cut to the mag pattern. using the g3 tool is the way to go. Ive seen a few skiers recently with skins all the way to the edges and it makes me laugh, you want that edge exposed!

    Ive got the original model Rossi XV which only came out as 167 and ive got K-clips and 2010/11 voile light rails and fitwell backcountry boots. There is a review on my blog somewhere but i wrote that a while ago. Ive been riding it for atleast 2 seasons now and i absolutely love it.

    Im 6 foot and about 200 pounds and i ride a Rossi XV Split, Does me fine..

    Ill probably end up getting a Revelator this southern winter. As far as the Voile skins go, they are just Black diamond skins.

    Draizuh replied to the topic Durable Approach Poles? in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 7 years, 2 months ago

    Im using some BD Expedition poles. There are a few different models as pointed out. Shiny metal/blue ones were crap they oxidized really bad if you didnt dry em out properly and they had the plastic locks were were crap.
    There are a black and red model with metal locks which are solid as fuck. They also have the hook on the end of the hand grip…[Read more]

    As far as those couloirs on the front face of the Remarks go, i dont think they get ridden very often, There is one directly below the lookout at the top of the Shadow basin called Lookout Couloir which claimed a life a while back. I know one…[Read more]

    I hope they are better than the Spark XV bro cause i went for “cheaper” and i ended up getting shoddy product
    I would hope the lacing is better on the independent because its laces…

    I got the Trewth bibs this season for down here in NZ and i havent been disappointed yet!
    Im 6ft and about 210 and they are pretty baggy on me.
    I got the XL and i could gain a few pounds and still fit in em. Straps are fairly adjustable so i dont think you will have an issue fitting in them..

    Legs fit over my Deeluxe Spark XV boots just fine.

    Draizuh replied to the topic Advice on Iphone GPS in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 8 years, 9 months ago

    I use android and google’s Mytracks for tracking and a NZ specific app New Zealand Maps for topo maps. It can pin point your location but thats not much help unless you are here.

    As i use a Samsung S3 i can change the battery and i carry a spare unless i get in shit but there isnt that much reception in the mountains here so using it as a phone…[Read more]

    Draizuh replied to the topic I suck at skinning in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 8 years, 10 months ago

    Agree with blazing your own trail, if i ever find myself following something i dont like i cut my own. Just cause there is a track there doesnt mean you have to follow it or that they knew what they were doing. i tend to make a track as mellow as i can so i can keep my energy for the sliding!

    Mine was terrible on the factory wax on warm snow but after i got a buddy to give it some lovin i didn’t have any issues with it. We didnt get a proper corn season this year it just went from winter pack to isothermic crap pretty quickly.

    Draizuh replied to the topic Rossignol splitboards in the forum Splitboards 8 years, 11 months ago

    I wear size 11 and toe drag hasn’t been an issue unless its been extremely isothermic.
    I ride a +15 -10 stance and i dont have much issue.
    However if you wait until next season they are releasing the XV split in a wide i think? or it might just be the solid..

    Japan isnt as steep as it is deep sadly, Something a lot of people dont seem to realise. The biggest thing i found as an issue was getting enough speed. the place just isnt that steep. There is steeper stuff around hakuba and other spots on Honshu then what i was riding but the snow in hakuba just isnt as dry as the north where its less steep..…[Read more]
