Re: Nouvelles EC12: les 1ères chaussures d'Extreme Carving, prêtes à l'emploi!

Magnifique! :D On peut dire que l'équipe Swoard a développé de A à Z un nouveau sport avec l'extremecarving: une nouvelle technique de ride, les boards qui permettent d'exploiter au mieux cette technique, puis logiquement les fix et les boots qui vont bien avec. Quel chemin parcouru depuis les début...

I would say Le Col in Zinal is steeper than Les Crets in Grimentz.
There are 2 drawbacks with Les Crêts:
the steep part is very short, I'd say less than a half of Le Col, and the chairlift is TERRIBLY slow :wall:

Re: What have you noticed at the Olympics Parallel Giant Sla

Wintergold, maybe I was not very clear with my explanation. I also love snowboarding in all it's aspects. When I was referring to racing technique it was literally, as at the Olympic Games. I was not talking about your video. My aim was just to emphasize the fact that the gear adapted to one riding ...

Re: What have you noticed at the Olympics Parallel Giant Sla

It is again (!!!) about drawing lines between different aspects of the same (!!!) sport. I'm sorry but I don't agree with you. But first I have to tell you that I have absolutely no experience with plates. In my opinion the carving technique promoted by Swoard is a different sport than slalom races...

Re: 20 ans après l'asymétrique - question "nostalgique" tech

A l'époque ce qu'on m'avait donné comme explication pour justifier l'asymétrie sur un snowboard alpin était d'avoir les mêmes appuis en front et en back, à savoir que la longueur de carre entre l'avant du pied avant (ou l'arrière du pied arrière) et l'avant de la planche (ou l'arrière de la planche)...

Re: Thor gloves: be careful

Just before this thread started, I ordered gloves. After reading it I asked for a refund, which was done immediately. You can read below the explanation of John from Thor gloves. I'm not sure I would trust him with my money, but if we all send him preorders it might help him start the new production...
