It's difficult to understand your explanation. Do you have a picture, if this helps?

I will try and take some pictures later on today to show how things are.. maybe a diagram! lol

Hi all, Just something I wanted to check with Dual riders. I have a Dual 175 with Burton Driver-X boots size 12/13 (can't remember) and Union bindings (not sure they make the model, but they are similar to Altas FC: https://www.blue-tomato.com/en-CH/product/UNION-Atlas+FC+2021-618604/?varid=30430036...

Happy New Year to the EC crowd, 2021 may be a victory for the long-suffering wife, who may finally get a proper anniversary celebration after these 4 years, and not a slightly broken husband recently back from Zinal EC! :-) I don't have anything snowboard or EC to contribute, but I do have this: Tho...

HI all, Came across surf-skates thanks to YouTube algorithm. Surf-skates have a special front truck that replicates surfing. I came across this video, with allowing for slightly annoying presenter, has some good similarities to EC, with hip rotation, etc. The bit about muscle-memory training is impo...

In a place where wearing masks is uncommon, I think the mentality is, if you are wearing a mask, you must be sick, and therefore have Covid-19. Maybe as wearing masks becomes common (Switzerland is quite badly hit with cases), this may change. Other reasons are, we get conflicting advice about masks...

It is OK, Patrice - you will survive. Figuratively and literally. :D At least this is coming towards the end of (Swiss) ski season, and most of us have had some snow fun. I personally think the governments have been very slow and prioritised profit over containment. If this strain becomes as common ...

what size?

Hi joemzl, Thanks for being so active on the social side. And on the piste too. I still remember back in 2016? while I was sitting on the side of the slope, wondering what I just did wrong, you randomly appearing out of the blue and giving me advice :). One day I will converse with you in German...o...

We wish you all the best and that you and your families remain safe from this latest contagion.
I also do hope the ski resorts can handle this financially...

Let me re-phrase. I was riding with F2 Race Titanium and UPZ RC10 on original Dual 175, and conditions which were not smooth, the impact to the feet was not good. It is a wide board, and the damping is not the same as Gen4 and above, it seems. Not sure on the latest Dual, as did not try this (was tr...

I may be in Japan for Feb 2021....still trying to make the plan - with about 20-30 of my snowboarding friends. It all depends on if it will be in Swiss school holidays ("sportferien"). Nice to meet you Shun and Taro! :-) If this trip happens, I will be sure to get in touch with you! :-) cheers, Coli...

Very nice!

Good thing you can multitask!

lightweights...

Just my 2cents The Dual 2 is also a great boot with hardboots! Am riding mine with light Swoard Redline bindings ( tried also with TD2's and fin's carbon) and my light TLT6 ski touring boots I am using for splitboarding...the combo is nice and with lower angles than on the Extremecarver it feels al...
