    Skijor AK replied to the topic Re-enabling the old forum in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 8 years ago

    Snurfer brings up some points worth discussing.

    I have some similar thoughts on the subject. I think the community is torn for reasons not having to do with this site. For one, I think many of our desires are becoming more and more paradoxical as splitboarding exponentially increases in popularity. For instance, I want new and improved…[Read more]

    Skijor AK replied to the topic furberg 2.0 twin and freeride and womens in the forum Splitboards 8 years ago

    I have 16 days on the 2.0 and am still loving it, from mellow days on Manitoba to some serious riding in Thompson Pass. I ride the 168 and have never had this thing sink. It planes on top like a champ, making riding playful and fun in the deeps. I have never had to apply pressure down on my back foot to stay floating, no matter the angle–it is a…[Read more]

    Skijor AK replied to the topic Furberg Snowboards in the forum Splitboards 8 years, 2 months ago

    I have been riding a 168 2014/15 Furberg a few times now and have some details.
    Construction: The board has an acceptable level of craftsmanship. While its no Venture or NS, the Voile hooks seem to keep it together better than some boards I have seen (some runs of K2 for example). The top sheet is grey-green which is kind of ugly in a room but…[Read more]

    Skijor AK replied to the topic Fitwell Backountry Review with Remind Insoles Liner in the forum Boots 8 years, 2 months ago

    Powder_Rider,
    Thanks for the link.
    I think some of the problem w/ the Fitwell liners is that they are just a 1/2 inch too short for the shell.

    Skijor AK replied to the topic Fitwell Backountry Review with Remind Insoles Liner in the forum Boots 8 years, 2 months ago

    Thanks for the review. I am having similar shin issues with the Fitwells. Do the Remind Insoles seem to have more “volume” than the stock liners? Thanks.

    Jump turns make me think of an old Scott Schmidt ski movie. Eat a few sandwiches and muscle that thing around! 😆

    Skijor AK replied to the topic Toe/Heel Drag Allowance (hardboots and softies) in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 8 years, 2 months ago

    Taylor, I would love to see what you come up with.
    I measured my angles.
    Back foot: Heel= 56* and toe is 62*
    Front foot: Heel = 54* and toe is 60*

    While these indicate that I should move my bindings forward to equalize the angles, I am hesitant to do so as of right now the boots are centered (maybe even more forward than backwards?!).

    Maybe I should have started a hard boot vs. soft boot thread instead 🙄

    Skijor AK replied to the topic Fitwell Backcountry in the forum Boots 8 years, 3 months ago

    I posted this in a different thread but maybe it would be better to ask here:

    I know I am :deadhorse: but I want to be sure! Fitwells are an expensive purchase, after all. How did you all know what size to order from Fitwell?

    I would describe my feet as size US 10.75 My actual foot is 283mm (if I measured it accurately)

    Skijor AK replied to the topic What pack do you use? in the forum The Gear Room 8 years, 3 months ago

    My wife has the Osprey Variant 37 pack. I think this pack is awesome! Small enough to be a day pack, big enough to do a few days/ cabin trip in.

    I want the same one BUT with a vertical carry option!

    I want a pack that has:
    1. A-frame and vertical (snowboard) carry options.
    2. 32-40 liters
