The Kessler is the new baby. Thought it would make a nice couple with my Berserker - one is devil, other is an angel.... :lol:

Thanks Jack, I agree.

I wonder what major categories we will use say in 5-10 years, what else can come in terms of shapes, technology, etc. We'll see.

Jack, this is a great tech article including all the important factors.


Just one question, though: there are many shapes that I have difficulty classifying into the 3 categories you gave, for...

Jobbulást! ;-)

Great article, but the pics do not show up on my screen... maybe some settings issue? Thx

On the other hand I fully agree, this technique is great fun on certain slopes, but you still need to know how to ride everywhere else.

My view (and I might be wrong): on a wider board where you can apply lower angles toe/heel lift/cant do not make too much of a sense unless you have a body geometry that needs some adjustments.

On...

The weird thing with the Virus boards is that when you first test them they do everything you want them to do even beyond your comfort zone and you get the feeling that you are headed to a huge fall...

You mean Virus boards cause serious addiction? Kinda agree :lol:

Shred, you'll get more quality feedback if you post this on the EC Forum, there are more Europeans. But here are some great places you can go in Europe:

Austria:
Sölden
Pitztal
Hintertux

:lol: I like it pretty much... if you don't mind I've put a link to the EC Forum....

You might want to try a Virus..... :smashfrea

Wow.... we've come a long way since then..... ;-)

I managed to brake a shoulder bolt just like on the pic at the beginning of this thread.

It happened on the ECS event on a very steep and stiff slope during a laid turn.

I'm sure that the...

Just keep on practicing.... ;) BTW, most probably ski boots are not the best for EC....

Instead of giving you an advice on the techniqe (you can read many threads and stuff on the EC Forum) I...

Welcome to the club.... check out the Swoard our the Virus ME109... Cheers

I think it is way more important how you store the board. Don't keep 'em flat on the base as it might lose camber.... sorry if this was too obvious for you guys.


Best,

ps.: I...

Now you really made me courious - where do u want to get with all the responses....

I think the question itself is not really good as you won't get a good performance having only 2 sections sharp. You can get bad performance and even worse....

Still I feel important to add that...

Alex, sure they will not promote it, but they are nice people and I guess they have no issues having the link and the pic of your gear on their forum.... just read what Nils wrote....

Alex,


Nice job! Just put a link on the EC site, wider boards are more welcome there... :biggthump

Best,

I ride the Indys and being around 90 kg I do not find it too stiff. It's really comfy for me and serves the purpose well. In my opinion the spring system is (almost)completely useless on it,...

My 2 cents: just don't push your butt out, rather try to rotate with your upper body to the direction you are turning. What also helps: turn your head towards where you wanna go.

If you still...

Hi Nils, just saw that you posted the same ;-)
