Alternatively, I've got some assumptions wrong here Not in my book. Both you and kjl are bang on. Flexibility is a whole load more important, and flex profiles are vastly more complex than sidecut curve forms. The problem is that you can't see them. Or really sum them up in a way that makes for a g...

I played with some formulas of ellipse, circle, parabola and plotted a few curves to visualize this topic. Have a look at the plot: Is that the curves themselves, or the curve obtained when applying a curve to a curved board in order to make it 'sit' on a flat surface at a given angle? To visualise...

Si il arrive pas a trouver des hardboots, pense aux chaussure ski de rando. Pas l'ideal, mais faisable.

21/02/2006, Praz sur Arly (Haute Savoie)

Publicite blatant / Shameless advertising OK, ce n'est pas du carving, mais c'est extreme. Et rigolo. Le soir de Mardi, 21 Février, L'asso "Woutzés dans la peuf" s'organise un compete "big air / air guitar" en pied des pistes a Praz sur Arly (5 km de Megeve). Des sauts enormes, des idiots enormes, d...

I prefer a rigid boot myself, but maybe I'm just a masochist :) Cant adjuster - Indys come with RAB, I believe, Suzukas with the 5-way cant adjuster. Parts interchangeable bet...

Grrrrr. J'ai vu cette thread trop tard. J'habite a 15 km de Megeve, et j'etais sur la planche a Praz/Flumet/Bellecombe tout le weekend (moins de monde, moins chere, et les pentes plus ou moins les memes)

Tant pis pour moi.

Moi-meme, j'ai un hot blast 160 (modele 2003, mais toute neuf pour moi), c'est une planche assez maniable, mais il faut qu'on est toujours assez concentre - c'est rigide est reponds directement aux mouvements de rider - ca se voir que c'est une planche concu plutot course. Le Silberpfeil, par contre...
