...and if yer gonna use FS/BS, just remember that a FS boardslide in a pipe is the same move as a BS boardslide on a rail. It's important to mix those up. If you don't, you get kicked out of the club.

Unless you take your bindings off mount them the opposite way... it's fakie.

(So says an old skater, fresh out of the Wayback machine.)

((Oh... is that Snowmass across the street? Heywhaaa......

"Have you seen anyone else riding one of those?"

"No."

"Does that bother you?"

Beaver is a good choice. Keystone has some great night riding and the Bomber crew meets there on Wednesday nights. 6pm at Kickapoos. I'm in Breckenridge, instructing most days. I have a pass to Vail,...

So.... would this be a good way to do a static binding and boot setup? On the living room floor, four on the floor, relaxed, over the board, feeling for more pressure here or there?

If I had to say there is a weakness in duck it is in the deep carve. Firstly, because risers have to be implemented in my case to get any worthwhile edge angle. Secondish, heelsides are very hard to...

Miguel, sure! And thanks.

Wow, total brain fart.

After reading Baka's 'beginners package' post I just remembered that I taught two never-evers last year on their own freestyle boards. We started on soft boots and got good...

Sorrels.

Better judgement tells me to stay far, far away from this. But then, I've never been afflicted with as much.

There are many things equally as offensive as the stench of stale smoke in an enclosed...

The skating thing comes with practice. Has a lot to do with where you drop your butt. The blind in leading eye thing is certainly a concern. If you find that your front ankle has a tendancy to over...

Yeah, I was just about to leave when I realized the importance of that statement. Effective first. Comfy second. Comfy certainly adds to effective in the way I meant it, but words on the internet are...

Yeah, maybe I should edit that. But the author has juxtaposed "more angle" and "less angle" here and there. Juxtaposed toeside, heelside, frontside, and backside. Toe and heel are all that is...

Mount the back foot toes and heels to the edge. Drop your front foot where it is comfortable. Might be the same, might be greater angle. Go ride. Any stress on any joints? Toeside or heelside...

No one should ride any stance they don't feel comfortable with. Some stances are better for some things, other for others. That statement is like saying everyone should be mounting their plates above...

Ski swap - Last year I saw a Renn Tiger 62ish for 40 bucks. Didn't buy it because it was too small for me. After a student snapped my 64 UP, I'm hoping to find another smallish carver this year....

Of course!

Then, 2 new guys and one old guy say they're coming too. But you know how that goes. We'll see.

I hope to have some dough in my pocket I need like six new Doneks.

...or eight.

I started out on minibikes as a kid. Then, you know, the Hodaka 80, Trail 90, that kind of stuff. When I turned 15 my dad got me an RD200 and I got my licence to drive right on the day I was 15 and...

a. No traffic

b. I'll run myself off before I hit you.

c. I can guarantee that.

d. Aint none of your nevermind my abilities, practices, or preachin' unless I choose to make it so.

In Germany, and all over Europe if I'm not mistaken, the commercial drivers have to log every inch of travel they do. The logs include speed, time on road, distance, and probably other stuff I am...

Hmm... I ride plates on everything. Never had a problem, but I'm not hucking 75 footers either. I do get into heavy back country though. The surprises can generate some force. One thing, (and I am...

U87 with Stephen Paul mod.

The ability to understand acoustics. (So, an alien brain.)

I was just about to email a friend. But he's new to carving and may not understand how important that heel is. Probably better this way. ;)

I've got a Prior 185 WCR that I probably won't use again. (Especially if someone here wants it and buys it.) I got it for a fair shake and want to pass it on in the same manner. I don't take perfect...
