I broke the front bail on the rear binding. The funny thing is it happened on relatively flat slope. I felt my rear leg going loose and knew imediately what has happened as I break bindings all the time. Before I bought race plate binding I used to have Burton plate bindings (same as race, only with...

Hi all! It's been GREAT! Great slopes, best snow, best carvers! Unfortunately we were positioned in Grimentz and had to leave saturday afternoon, so I couldn't participate in evening activities, but I had an oportunity to exchange a few words with other carvers and I could test SWOARD (great board, ...

Hey Arnaud!

This is really very very well done!

It will sure make identification process much more easier.

I somehow doubt that anyone would risk their 790+ € worth Swoard to perform rockboarding, despite of it's excellent edgegrip

Besides, I wouldn't want to try EC on those rocks, even if I got a board for free

If it's gonna be that bad, there's still a possibility to drive from Zinal to Saas Fee, I guess there's a glacier...

And I see that Grimentz has a bit more snow...

Hi all! Next saturday we're off to Zinal and I'm getting more and more excited about it! Besides I really need a vacation so the joy is immense. :lol: What I wanted to ask about are conditions on pistes in Zinal and Grimentz. In Slovenia if it says 40cm of snow is what they want to say "take along y...

That's why I only voted as the pool came out

But as it seems I'm not the only lawyer here, let it be revealed...

Hi guys! I didn't mean that the test that was made was biased or anything, it just that after reading the test about two similar boards with similar characteristics and then reading about the connection between the two brands all pieces seemed to fall so well together. That's all and I'm thrilled ab...

Oh yeah, finaly! :D I think that also explains the test Swoard vs. Virus Extremecarver! :wink: Will there be both versions available for testing in Zinal? Oh, and another question - any hints on which countries you ment when said that there will be shops selling Swoard 2D? Congratulations, thanx and...

AAAArgh, please stop, I can't stand it any more, being stuck in the office! :evil: :cry: May legs are subconciously positioning themselves in SB stance! :? I'm having my vacation signed today I'm counting days 'till Zinal! :) See you all there! :D Bye, Jakob BTW: What are snow conditions like in Zin...

Indeed, just as Istvan said, the expectations are high
and the anxiety rises as Zinal time is drawing close...

Hi!

Those bindings do look really great, but can anyone see any element to absorb vibrations? Entire binding made of steel is a bit too much, don't you think. I guess it needs something like elastomer ring on TD2? Or not?

Elan Ballistic, good board but they quit the production of alpine boards this year though

Hi!

As Istvan said, you won't be able to, for you were not given a receipt because you were buying from a private person. You didn't pay Us tax so you can't get back the tax you didn't pay. Sorry I guess...
