Reefer,

Re the horizontal carry method. For me personally, in any application other than sledding, it is useless. Horizontal is the way to go when you are hiking, sail effect or not. But just because it doesn’t work for me doesn’t me it can’t work for someone else. 🙂

I agree horizontal carry can be lame especially in the trees,…[Read more]

ReeferMadness – I don’t think the M30 does horizontal snowboard carry, but I haven’t actually found one to check out in person yet. I’ll let you know if I find out.

Thanks SF, It doesn’t look like the Osprey’s offer horizontal carry either.. (at least the Switch26 doesn’t) It’s too bad I’m sick of trying to cram all my…[Read more]

Ouch $7200 for a 500 cc. The 4 strokes are starting to be nice but are still way too expensive.

Agreed, that’s why I didn’t get one. The newer two strokes are fairly clean running and don’t make that much noise if you keep the pipe stock. Snowest classified online is a good place to find a deal.

Looks seriously good where access is intermittent snow/bare plus they’ll trail or break trail in winter conditions but no where near as fast as a sled. There’s several places near home that this would save lots of tourtime = more turntime especially early/late. Anyone ever used 1? Are they as good as the hype? Good – 4 stroke/not…

P420 – I thought you’d have a sled for this season. These guys do ride up some stuff that I know I’d be a little nervous riding down.

I was a little hoping this thread would pull out some split/sled people to ride with this season. Sled base camps, boondocking, splitting the good stuff.

Bring on the SNOW!

Yes Fellas yes!!!…[Read more]

I like my Malamutes a lot also, they do have issues with the lace eyelet deals. The break off real easy especially when riding sleds.

I’ve looked into kiteboarding in the ocean a bit. Do you have to have mulitple kites for different wind speeds? I was real into wakeboarding until a buddy dumped off his boat.

A guy I work with used to kiteboard…until he got lifted 20 ft in the air and slammed to the ground. He blew his knew up and limped for well over a…

Splitchick gets into the action too, but it looks like she got busted.

Sick coat… now those are my people…

Nice pics ~ way to get after it. 8)

I would say go w/ the 165. I went from a super stiff 161 nitro natural resort board to a old school 173 voile freeride and didn’t like the feel. it felt too heavy and slow to turn for me. I traded it in for a new 166 free ride and like that much better.

IMO you don’t need anything over 165, just keep the speed up and you should be fine.

mmm I like cookies especially if they have the proper ingredients. I am not her boyfriend but damn that wouldn’t be a bad job would it now?

New sled huh? now that is a topic i like. sweet. What did you get? Where do you plan to use it around so cal?

Me and the crew have been hitting some areas around Leavenworth & the Blewitt pass area.…[Read more]
