Hey buddy, welcome to a new world. So far you've gotten great info and you'll find that this community is great for that. I 'm recommend that you get all the info you can and wait an search at bomberonline in the calassified section for your gear. But first go to www.alpinecarving.com which is the C...

Nils, Thanks for replying. When do you think you will be able to release the names and contact information for the euro shops so that I might be able to make arrangements with them?

Thanks, Marc

Nils, when you said that the first shop receives boards does that mean they won't be able to be shipped to the states?

Marc

Hey Nils, I've been, as you wished, patient. And I'm thrilled to hear all the good news. Now I need some advice, as you can see I live in the states and I have two concerns. First, Will I be able to order the EC2 for state side delivery? Second, regardless of the answer to the first question, when w...

I haven't heard anyone mention the O-sin 4807. Listen up boys,... This board will blow you away at how well it plows and floats through the biggest dumps. Mine is 178 and with the swallow tail it gives the rider a feeling very similar to riding a wave, if you have had the experience you know what I ...

Guys!!! Congratulations!!!!! I'm very excited for you all and myself as well. All of us here in the carving community are waiting with great anticipation for the notice that orders can be placed. Give yourselves a good pat on the back for all the hard work, research and commitment to excellence. Wel...

I just saw your name as the shaper for a Wild Duck Knifer GS 160 and would like to know your feelings about this board and how it compares to the WD alpine racer 171. Were you the shaper for the racer as well? The knifer looks very similar to the shape of the swoard so I'm not suprised. The racer ha...

Half the width of a swoard and double the angles= diametrically opposed to the EC philosophy. I think it's more a marketing scheme directed to racers who might want to carve maybe

Guys, Thanks for the reply and info this is really helping me with my decision. I have just a couple more questions if you could be so kind to answer for me. When I compare the two jackets the difference I see is the hard vs. soft chest protector but I can't see the back of the jacket that you wear ...

Hi guys, I wanted to ask Diablillo and Sito if they could give me some feed back on their experience witht the gear and if they wouldn't mind going to www.blue-tomato.at and identify the gear they have so I can do the same. Dianese has different jackets and protectors at blue tomato than they have a...

Hey Istvan, I'm looking at the Dainese gear myself, specifically the padded shorts, how about you? Let us know how you like the gear for boarding, to bulky, to cold, to restraining etc OK?

Thanks,

MarcAndre

Hi guys, There is another option,... I'd take a look at getting into an operation that already has the money, the promotion, the story, the distribution and the talent. It may not be the ideal but if Jacques and Patrice were shot as part of a film project that already has a very loyal and lucrative ...

Pokkis thanks for the Din #. I appreciate it. I haven't used these new Indys of mine but based upon what I'm reading here I'll need the softer spring set up that you have. That coupled with some other dampening in the pads under the TD's should help.

Thanks again,

MarcAndre

Pokkis, Thanks for those dimensions you just made my day, well... the Boston Red Sox made my day, but you were a close second. Any way I'll assume mm were the rule. And did you have a guage or steel reference of the quality of the spring material or do you think most any type would do? Again thank y...

Hey Alexy, can you post those before and after pics of the pin modification for us please. I'm interested in the adjustment and whether or not you lost any retention aspect of the pin/heel interface.

Thanks,

Marc
