ECS 2007 is done. I am really interested in a comparison between the custom Pirate board and the Swoard. Did you compare the two boards? Is it written somewhere?

Hallo Nobbi, obwohl ich den Swoard noch nicht gefahren bin, bin ich 100% davon überzeugt, dass es nicht richtig ist, was der schweizeriesche Fachhändler geschrieben hat. Ich denke, dass wenn man carven will - und diesmal würde ich sagen, es ist unabhängig, ob man "extremcarvt" oder "racecarvt"-, es ...

Last week I was in Nassfeld. Theoretically a very good area, a lot of wide slopes with various steepness, beautiful landscape. The slopes are not so long but I wouldn't say that they are short. I had a lot of slopes that were too steep for me - perhaps good for EC that I am not able to do currently....

Hi MarkN, be careful with the SnowPro FAST system. I was thinking about it before I bought the InTec system. I meet a guy who had a break in the knee because the binding released in a bend. The problem is that this system can be get clogged more easy than the InTec because the pins of the binding pu...

Hi mrtko, yes, it is possible to ride a normal binding with the InTec heel. I rode 3 years long SnowPro Base with the InTec heels. I didn't saw any negativ impact apart from a little fray on the binding that was in contact with the InTec pins. But it depends on the geometry of the binding too. In my...

Patrice, I am looking for your review too - although I bought it (a former model from ProFlex) meanwhile. I am especially wondering what do you think about the dampening of the binding - is it OK or one needs to have a dampening plate under the binding? Another point that I am thinking about is whet...

Hi all, yesterday I bought a Proflex Intec Titanium, about 2-3 years old. It seems to be very robust - I can imagine it can survive a nuclear war There are some parts from rubber below the metal groundplate. They seem to be a bit narrow for an effective shock absorption but I will test it - I hope i...

Silber, I use Blax Toni (1998). I ride quite good with the "normal technic" but I have not too much experience with EC - I am learning it. I weight 72kg and I don't like the superstiff boots - perhaps because of my weight. So, the Blax Toni has three modes: race, comfort, walk. Independent from the ...

Money is back, there was no problem at all in the shop

My story has no been finished yet :( Yesterday I noticed that my new (used) binding was cracked :evil: I don't know whether it was originally cracked (I suppose not) or I cracked it when I screwed the binding on the board - but I think it doesn't matter, the baseplate is not strong enough. I hope I ...

Thank you for all answers. fluke, it is very helpful that you could compare both type (metal+plastic, metal) of bindings however last weekend I bought a used Blax binding that had a very friendly prise. I hope that it will work as I expect - if not I will have no more fear to buy an all metal bindin...

Thank you for all answers! István, you are right, I am hungarian. I will write it in the location field. Of course Pirate = Kucséber but zsuri = zsuri. He was a little dino in a cartoon too many years ago :( Back to the business :D I think my very high angles really depend on my binding because it i...

Hi! I am looking for a new binding for my board that is 173cm tall, 18cm wide and the radius is 11m (handmade board similar to f2 Silberpfeil but optimized for my weight). It is perhaps not the best board for EC but I like it. I have used a plastic Raichle X-Bone but I would like to have a new one b...
