i assume J and P too... i tend to really touch the snow hard with hands, then arms, then hips etc...i'm not at the same level than them of course.. but the feeling of gliding on the snow with whole body is cool... It means> reinforced gloves ( Jacques's have Ptex), I reinforced the bottom of palm wi...

Yes we heard about pureboarding session...Its going to be a real event etc... whereas we are just going to organise a meeting: Tell everyone that wants to come on the resort XYZ on week end XX. Its going to be unformal, and will be just about riding together.. We are not comparable to pureboarding w...

we don't "don't like" cateks or bombers, first thing is we never saw one in real here.. i admit the picture shows an amazing work of craftmanship...i assume bombers are the same quality. Its just that they are so stiff, there is no way the board would survive the pressure, since the EC board is wide...

i think the waist is 19cm, and i have large feet with SB121 (which are longer than modern boots). It took me 3-4 attemps on the slope before i could adjust my feet on the board without having the boots draggind too much. The first attemps i couldn't even carve backside, my back shoe would touch and ...

ou a loftstory, puisque ca tombe l'ete et que l'ete on fait rien puisqu'y a pas de neige !

non l'alpin n'est pas mort, meme si la tendance cote fabricants laisse croire que ca va de plus en plus mal. Je pense qu'apres les annees d'or 92-96, on peut penser avoir toucher le fond. Maintenant, les gens apres avoir ete manipules par le marketing leur disant que pour faire jeune il faut faire d...

Soit patient, restes a l'ecoute sur le site et le forum, ta patience va etre recompensee (comme la notre)

construction neoprene is just stiffer, has no bubbles or air cells.. its comparable to lets say a sole of a shoe. Just any hardware store will have it. Its used in construction to isolate concrete basement to wood pillar or structures. ALso used in bridge construction ( stronger kind) so that the ma...

Hi rob, I have been confronted with the same problem with my swallowtail, using fin's race plate, that i found were too stiff for freeriding. I simply bought some 5mm strong neoprene (not the wetsuit kind, but the strong construction kind) and cut a piece that fits under the whole plate, with a cuto...

going to be a 2001-2002 model, because Rossignol quits the alpine market. Big rumors say also that hot snowboards and hammer are on the edge....meaning Rossi is almost ready to kick them out of business... Hard times.. We provided the survival tools for skiing (new shapes, new feelings...) and now t...

For 10 000 euros in cash ! I give out the spot's name !

Hi norm, well i have tried the UPS, long time ago, liked it but too wide for my thin feet.. As for custom liners, you have basically three kinds, that will fit in any boot brand: - thermoformed - cork dust - PU foam the prices increase with the technology of course... I'm a PU fan, because i'm used ...

Mon pote Per, vient de se commander un mono 192CVV chez kafi (swellpanik)... la board est finie, en loupe d'acacia:) j'ai hate de recevoir mon Amok ( swallowtail 196cm) qui lui sera en loupe de noyer !

Cheers
