Those Bomber bumbers are very long lasting, mine are from year 97 or 98 (need to check when i dig my board out of storage later this week) and there are no marks any kind that they would need to be replaced and i'm quite active rider.

Who killed roger rabit

I personally believe that alpine was killed by fight between FIS and ISF amd also by greed of some ISF area. First major step to change slalom was to move from long sticks to short ones, then switch it totally to short ones and then finally totally to duel. Duel as format is really competetive, but ...

I think that comparing here price of Sword to "standard" production boards is quite wrong. Sword is in same price category as all other custom boards so it is not so specially expencive. It is pretty much same as comparing normal combi cars to Ferraris, for most of normal users Sword would be too go...

I started first with more narrower stance but felt uncomfy, and have now widthened it step by step. I felt that balance was much poorer with narrower stance, but i propably should give new try in some phase :lol:

Do you have any experience to ride skwal like board with wider stance, what are benefits of short stance there or is it just cause you dont have any other stance options. My Bastard (171/14) feels much stable with wider stance, currently riding it flat with stance 48cm

Dee-lux = Raichle with thermofits should fit quite nicely for most feet. For testing problem is that you dont see result before inner boot is warmed/fitted but after that it is fine. When putting foamed innerboots to snowboard boots one must remember that sb-boot is flexing much more that ski boots ...

We both, me and my wife, have purple ones.

Also soft ones could be good to test if you will get little more softnes. I...
