This is actually the exact answer I needed from the internet this morning to save me $1000.

Cross-posting from the big-guy touring thread to get a few more eyes on it:

Anyone have a proper big guy comparison on ATK Freeraiders/Moment Voyagers vs. CAST? Obviously very, very different...

Anyone have a proper big guy comparison on ATK Freeraiders/Moment Voyagers vs. CAST? Obviously very, very different setups but I'm intrigued by the idea of having at least one lighter touring ski...

PM's don't seem to be working for me, but it may be worth pointing your friend towards Ken Wylie, who was a junior guide during the La Traviata tragedy in the early 2000s. I've only met Ken in...

The old Faction Royale was an even mo' bettah CT5.0. Such a good WH2O ski.

I've got my 192's mounted at +1.5 and they feel just like my old 191s....

Second dibs on Cochise if Jaxson is out.

Did you ever get this problem sorted? I'm having a similar issue and have tried punching the area with moderate success but still getting a bit of ankle soreness. I'm using the same Sole footbeds as...

Shoulda bought the factory finds but here we are...

Not to be confused with the other thread looking for standard core 189 BGs. Anyone have a 189mm 116mm waist set from last year they're looking to get rid of with room for a Pivot/CAST mount for a...

Give him a call and tell him your situation. He ended up selling one to me for $325 USD including shipping to Canada and some modified bike gloves specific to the brace. I was also lucky to have mine...

PM'd re: woodsmans.

Anyone know if BGT 118's are actually sold out or are they still in the production queue somewhere?

Sent you a PM.

If it helps facilitate a trade/sale, I have a set of 196 Green/Black rens that I am contemplating getting rid of as they're currently collecting dust.

Full disclosure, they have a couple core...

Any more thoughts on comparisons to Candide 5.0s or 196 Renegades?

My hope is that the CBs would act exactly like you were hoping for Self Jupiter: more float and a more supportive tip in pow...

I'm mounting a set of 2011/12 191 Billy Goats with CAST and have some hole overlap and need to go either +1 or -1 cm from the line. Looks like the line is at -8.5cm on this version.

Looking for...

Just adding another data point to this thread. I've had two sets of 196 Renegades (2011 raven topsheet and 2015 green/black topsheet) and one set of 195 Hojis over the last decade.

The 2011 Rens...

These still around?

Yup, I can barely kick turn without them coming off in half lock.

Yup, twice now on hard, off camber sections where losing a ski would make for a long monoski down and longer skin back out of the drainage. Cleaning pins and tech fitting of all ice did not solve...

Anyone hear anything about the March 1st ship date for the latest batch? I ordered fairly late, so not expecting much but would be nice to get some news.

Overlaying paper templates makes it look like mounting pivots 0.5cm forward but unconfirmed as of now.

Clydesdale here, making the move to CAST after experiencing pre release issues mentioned in this thread.

Anyone know how the Shift mount pattern lines up with Pivots?


Sent from my iPhone...

Not anymore. Time to replace the OG raven topsheets.

What's the word on Mt Cain right now? I'm in Comox from Nelson for a few days visiting family and wouldn't mind heading up there if it's worth the drive right now.

Edit: Looks like the question...

Roam had quiver killers in stock a couple weeks ago, not sure if they still do.

Still have this

Looking to sell last year's Sidewinder SV Jacket in women's medium. Only worn once, like new condition.

Would prefer to ship to Canada but will also ship to the US of A.

Asking $350 CAD.

Messaged you. I'll take em if you'll ship to Canada

As far as I know, there have been no markings on past years' models, so maybe that's something new with the bevelled topsheet? Regardless, to avoid confusion and disappointment, I'd measure 92 from...

I think he referred to that as "real Jordan".

It's been too gradual for me I actually notice a difference in the way they ski but visually it's noticeable. Just noticed today at kicking horse so I've got them in a garage over night to see if...

Just had a look at my 196s and I've got something similar happening. It's very minimal but there's definitely less tail rocker and a tiny bit of camber when they're held together in the middle....

I've got some Rossi axial2 140s that I'm trying to get rid of. Brakes fit on my faction royales at 122 mm.

I've got axial 12's sitting in my garage that I'd get rid of cheap.

My rens are getting a little beat up since I seem to ski them everyday, regardless of conditions, because they're so damn fun.

Will be rolling through towards the end of the week and might take you up on that. Would be interesting to ski them back to back with my rens.

Top 5 for sure. We're at the hostel in town here. Give me a shout if you run into me tomorrow. Blue and grey strafe stuff riding on renegades. I'm with a boarder who seems to have more in going slow...

I saw ya. Would have said something bit was having trouble with the whole breathing thing

Got them midway through last season, just threw new clamps on them.

Put about 50 days in wearing the nomad jacket/pants last year and can chime in. Wrote this on NS last year after about 10 days:

Some burly lines in there. Exposure on the last shot is nuts.

Sold my 2010 36 Talas RC2 in Canuckland here at the end of last summer. Was asking $600 originally, but ended up taking $400. Some online retailer was selling them brand new for $500. I'm assuming...

Your experience seems to be fairly consistant with most people out there. Toyota-4runner.org seems to have some solid info about the 3rd gen T4r's. Little problems like the antennae or clock dying...
