Extreme Carver Census: where is every one from?

For us in the states, it's lonely being a Swoards-men; are there any on the east coast? midwest? I may have to plan a trip to europe just ride with some of you guys. I'm from central Michigan, USA and ride in in northern michigan. I am usually the only hard booter on the slopes, and I have never see...

Re: Help me choose my Swoard Extreme Carver

Just got my extreme carver a week. I was easily able to setup my board with no toe heel drag with raichle boots. 54 deg on front foot and 45 on the rear foot, no drag at all. Now all I need is some decent snow. I have waited 5 years to get my Swoard, and this is the worst winter we've ever had.

Re: Feedback on the Swoard Extremecarver Gen4

I finally got my Extremecarver a week ago, very impressed with the build quality. I suppose I would expect nothing less from the Swiss (Suisse).

Re: Raichle SB 323 vs Deeluxe track 325t

Thanks everyone, you really are a very helpful group of people. I'm assuming most of you live in Europe? I didn't win the 325's on ebay, so I will be sticking with my 323's. I don't have any problem with them; the liners aren't the greatest, but I will use them a little bit longer and then get some ...

Raichle SB 323 vs Deeluxe track 325t

I currently am using a set of SB 323 boots with Abrax's ACSS (very nice). I'm wondering if there is much difference between my boot and the Deeluxe track 325T. The Deeluxe comes with a thermoflex liner, but I understand I can purchase these aftermarket for my current boots. Any advice would be great...

Re: Help me choose my Swoard Extreme Carver

Thanks everyone, I just ordered my Swoard 168M! I'm pretty sure there is no way I could go smaller with my raichle/deeluxe boots as I have ground quite a bit out of the toe box already. I would like to try some UPZ boots, but for the mean time I will stick with my SB's. You are also right, after car...

Hmm... I like the curved design and the minimal dimensions. I take it I have to contact Abrax directly to get this system?

BTS springs for Raichle SB 323

Hello, I just got my hands on a pair of new Raichle SB 323's to replace my ancient Burton Furnaces. I'm getting the Bomber BTS and I was wondering what springs would be good for EC. I weigh ~160 lbs. (72 Kg's). Seems like most people here use the yellow springs, but many here are using stiffer boots...
