walove

Really interested in the board, is it still available?

i’ve got some grassy meadows in the bridgers that ride well in low tide condtions, i’ll check back when the snow starts falling.

nice work, temperature controlled heaters, would be nice to have them sitting around. Where did it bubble on the top? along the center cut?

Do you have before and over rockered and final results pictures and measurements.

i rockered the nose on a cambered board, it worked and stayed over time. I built a wood frame that bent the nose much more than the desired rocker. Then wrapped the board in towels and poured boiling water over the board for about an hour as fast as i could bring water to boil. The idea was most boards are pressed around 180f and the working…[Read more]

early release 2015 means September of 2013? getting a little ahead of my our selfs arent we

nuking at bridger, this storm keeps delivering

bozeman, to cooke city, to jackson, to slc. Cooke is off the hook in may, riding wise, nothing for the girl is she doenst. we have had snow in bozeman everyday since friday and it doesnt look like its letting up soon.

dynafit soft boots, its the future…

deepter at bridger, around 3ft at the top of pierres, Still snowing when i left at 12:30, A lot was full, almost as many dogs as people. Snow was light and bonded well to the old layer, couldnt get any thing to sluff or slide

2nd season is ON!!! I free all week and am look for a partner to ride some steeper lines.

voile is redesigning their pucks, and burton is making their own next year.

stiff pucks for 13/14

I use some diy puck with an extra ski screw, very little flex. we made them a little over sized and filled down for a snug fit with the sparks. TAUT

epoxy mixed with wood powder(fine sawdust), peanut butter consistency

sharp carbide blade cuts right through them, no tearing.

im a size ten boot in a med blaze, i’d move the heelcup all the way forward and see where your at. Pictures can help us help you

would have been cool to see the weight of that set up, sub 150 board and skins with magnetos has to be pretty light,

do you skin with forward lean on the highbacks? I run my blaze’s at 0 (-5 deg) on the climb and 3 on the way down. makes taking longer strides more comfortable.

Hmm, cool. But, it surely won’t cheap

this is splitboarding cheap is relative.

adjust the heelcup forward until your toes and heels are spaced evenly over the board. check in tour mode to ensure that the toes dont hit the board early.

what size bindings and boots?

i rigged up a set of removable highbacks last year, i notched out the hole that attaches the highback and could slide it off and on the bolts in the heel cup. tour’d really nice, longer stride for sure. didnt take much longer to put in the highbacks than it does adjusting the forward lean on sparks.

on long hikes or flat skins i’ll lace my…[Read more]

i have blaze’s, for me its about the straps more than the highback. I find the burner ankle strap limits the forward flex of my boot a lot especially when climbing the blaze lets my ankle flex normally. I don’t feel that much difference in the highback flex. I like stiff highbacks, i ride bentmetals inbounds with their aluminum highback (no…[Read more]

splitting in bozeman, i’ve seen them in action. Climbing bars can be opened and closed with poles. The plastic tab under the toe lever (first picture) acts as the pin in ride mode, locking the binding on to the pucks. The short pins slide onto the new lt bracket from the side and the plastic tab keeps it from sliding back. transitions are…[Read more]

im guessing the voile bracket, unless you notice unusual wear on the bushings.

the voile bracket is steal so it will bend with out breaking, put it in the vice and tweak it
