Very damp, easy turning, orange/black slalom board. 160cm long, 20,3cm in waist. 11m sidecut. Bindings: blax standard with some built in canting. Ideal buy for a person who wants to learn the basics of EC. As far as I can say the board is designed for 65-75kg , more weight will not be held strong en...

The plates are designed for a single purpose: be the fastest between the gates on icy ruts. Undoubtedly, plates serve this purpose well. Heh and how is this done? Plate disconnects Your boot/boot forces from the board and lets the board edge run more fluent on the snow, so this leads to better edge...

I was questioning myself why all the GS world champions use this gear...
What is Your opinion about plates?
Do they help, is there a need for a plate?
How much should it cost?
Do YOU need a plate?
Would You buy it?

or this is completely obsolete in EC...

Sure,

I know a guy that streched that he was able to dig under the snow, that low he could get during the turn!

The more fit You are the less hurt You get... And the longer You stay carving on the slope

To stay fit first You need to get fit... Try some step classes in the fitness club. It may be funny at the beginning, especially that there are usually just girls, but in my opinion there is no better exercise when it comes to time spent/ effectiveness. Legs give just the base, don't forget that You...

Try this ->

-18m, one breath... and a bus.

In summer I usually dive... Beeing more precise I freedive. There is nothing better than -30M on one breath

Hi guys, what I have to add is that we are taking two looong razors with us wherever we go... Sometimes it means two +100km/h razors at once. Deadly weapon...

Pokkis, doesn't matter how fast, what does matter is the quality

It's not about going to steeper slope, which is actually not recommended unless fully linked turn is done - just as You say :-) But don't let her ride on less steep one! This one is good, steep enough to make carved turns, wide enough to be comfortable with it's sides, but too much crowded ;) Anyway...

When I've met my Anna, she was far from thinking of any sport she can do. So the first sport was in warm conditions, bicycles. But I don't really like biking, so she was riding my bike and i was ridig my blades. As I've started my rollerblading adventure many years ago, my style is very smooth so wh...

I'm with Anna (quite a popular name dont You think?) for 8 years, married since less than 2, but we've been always living with eachother... At the beginning she said that she will never put a rollerblades on her feet because she is afraid of accidents. After 2 years of thinking and seeing me riding ...

Heh... If it was only that simple... Even PRADA wouldn't do a thing

This is not a perfect riding, but when i change my stuff to hardboots i did much worse :-) Maybe You had different knowlegde while swaping to the hardboots. Notice that she had good instructor even before the swap... BTW-> congrats, 3 person family and 3 hardbooters! I am still convincing my wife t...
