Re: 2023-2024 ExtremeCarving Camps & SWOARD boardtest

--- See English below --- Comme les précédentes années, je recommande les camps de Sébastien! Instructeur Swoard-EC, il est un excellent pédagogue, très patient. Il faut dire qu'il est prof de sport! :bravo: Durant les événements Swoard, nous donnons des conseils et des petits cours gratuits. Mais r...

Re: Board advice for lady

We developed all Swoard models primarily for ice and hard snow, so that they perform great everywhere (including on good snow, of course). :bravo: I remember all these summer days on the glaciers, testing and testing on bad ice, to feel all details in the prototypes. 8O On easy snow, most boards sho...

Re: Softboot carving to ExtremeCarving in France

Hello Cyprus and welcome! :silly: You can read here in the FAQ the original definition of "extremecarving" (or "Extreme Carving", or "ExtremeCarving", or "EC", as you want, but it is inspired from the word "freeriding" in one block) that we created in 2002. It's a whole concept about ride technique,...

Marc is the man! He is coming every year, and other Dutchies often take part in the event too. :silly:

You are probably in contact with him already. His nickname in the Forum is: manuchill

See you soon! :bravo:

Here is a small feedback of the event! 8) We were so happy to be back, like last year after the pandemic, but with full sun this time! Despite of the lack of snow (like last year), the pistes were very well prepared. :bravo: And again we had a great place for the stand. Pila 4.03.2023 The stand.jpg ...

Re: Renforcer gants Thor

Comme alternative au Polyglut On a vu beaucoup de produits ces dernières années. Attention à ceux qui sont peu flexibles, ou cartonneux, ou trop brillants, ou très lourds, ou difficiles à appliquer, ou vraiment moches... ou pire: qui sentent mauvais en permanence (je pense aux gants de Julia :lol: ...

Re: Renforcer gants Thor

Does this Polyglut sticks to the leather? How much is needed for one pair of gloves? (I need to order it from France as I cannot get it in CZ) --- In English --- Yes, it sticks on leather! With 250 ml, you can make several pairs and repair regularly. But I recommend 500 ml, if you also want to repa...

Re: Renforcer gants Thor

Parfait, tu nous rediras pour les coutures renforcées au Polyglut(si ça résiste bien), et pour la glisse. Ca va intéresser quelques amis (que je qualifie malicieusement de pingouins :lol: ).

Re: Renforcer gants Thor

Ce ne sont pas des gants, mais des moufles!

Cela dit, je te conseille de fair...

Re: Pila (e le altre) 2023

Grazie Flaviano! È sempre un piacere leggere le tue newsletter. :bravo:
In effetti, sembra che a Pila stia nevicando meno che altrove in questi giorni... e non così tanto come più a nord. Questa è una stagione molto speciale. 8O
A presto! 8)

Re: Factory edges angle

From factory it is 90°. You can find info in the FAQ : :arrow: Swoard maintenance guide.pdf Read the angles that we recommend. Note that the liquid waxing from the factory is excellent for at least 3-4 days. Then you can wax to "feed up" the base, and be lazy almost all season long because our bases...

Re: Fix pour une EC 168M

Etant donné que tu es léger, recherche de "vieilles" F2 d'occasion avec étriers de petit diamètre (5 mm). Ce sera déjà bien, malgré les points négatifs des embases. Depuis quelques années, les modèles Race Titanium avec gros étriers (6 mm) sont bien trop rigides (latéralement, pour un style fluide e...
