i have my lead foot angle out should i make changes?

woob · 01-25-2009, 06:30 PM

I was up at Cypress yesterday 10am-4pm.

Icy as fuck. The only good runs were Fork (and whatever blues/blacks that are attached to it) and Panorama, but Panorama was covered with douches and/or nubs who blocked the side hits. Bombing the same couple runs got old so I passed time trying to improve my non-existent ground trick repertoire on the Panorama flats. Don't even think about tree lines.

Please get some snow pleasepleaseplease

I just came back from big white and the conditions are pretty icy at night. Especially the run that requires you to take the bullet express chair. The top half of the run is like an ice rink.

I found the best runs to cruise on are the runs that require you to take powder chair and gem lake chair.

i returned a pair of boots for an in store credit one time. you might be able to do that, or get an exchange. if the boots are still brand new looking. its sort of understandable as you cant tell how boots feel by walking around the store for 15 minutes.

are the pressure points created by your bindings? i had a pressure point caused by the buckle part of my binding but i could adjust the buckle on the strap to a different point and it was fine.

daggon · 01-26-2009, 08:19 PM

its not due to the bindings because i tried many different settings and even different bindings to see if its the cause.
its like where the lace is threaded through near the top of the foot.

What do u think resellable condition is... its got some dirt on the outside due to useing it twice... and its white... lol

i remember getting Anthem for xmas on VHS back in the day... i also remember hacking down my kemper to turn it into a twin, t-bolting my 26" stance with westbeach pants that engulfed my boots/bindings and jester hat flailing wildly behind! haha

seasons pass to Big White this my 17th year of riding.

picked up an '07 Endeavor Paavo in 157, 22" centered with 21 up front and -6 out back. Ride Delta Mvmnt bindings, '06 32 Peter Line's

my bag of tricks has decreased since the highschool days but i've finally got my air legs back! feeling super confident hitting big stuff at speed now. loving every second of this season despite the less than stellar conditions and feeling on top of my game for the first time in years.

dude, keep in mind this was like 15 years ago. snowboarders weren't "gangsta", they were skater punks on snow. this was when jibbing was born and we all thought a wide stance helped butter those muffins!

lol

hey my spys kept fogging up im guessing time for a new lense? anyone know if i get get them a comor or etc?

woob · 02-05-2009, 03:50 PM

Is the lens fogging on the inside, outside, or between lenses? If its the inside you might have wiped off the anti-fog coating by accident. In which case you don't need to buy a new lens, just spray some CatCrap or something on it. If it's the outside, CatCrap works too, or you can just wipe it off. But if it's between the dual lens, you're fucked so go buy a lens.

Comor and Pacific Boarder carry Spy. You should be able to find lenses there. If not, you can definitely find lenses online.

Out of curiosity, which Spy's do you have (frame and lens)?

can catcrap be found locally?

woob · 02-16-2009, 08:36 PM

umm dunno hah I just tossed the name out there because it's familiar. I've never used it as I've never needed to. Back when I swam though I used some generic anti-fog for my swim goggles and they worked then.

Oh btw just recently bought some new goggles (took me forever to find the lens I wanted..) and I think I'll show them off teehee:

Anyone know the snow conditions up at Cypress??
I'm planning to go either nightskiing over the week, or full day on the weekend.
Thanks~
