Edit to clarify that I'm talking about the La Machine Max, NOT the Mega.

Yeah, I thought about molding them to see if it improved the fit. The shell fit is perfect length-wise. The issue is that my foot is very high volume near the arch and the boots aren't super...
Monday morning bump.
These boots are impressive. I was moving to these from a Dynafit Titan. Not only did these boots ski better than my Titans, but they are nearly a pound lighter....PER BOOT!
Unfortunately for me I...

I've got 110 brakes on my 120s with no issues. They can definitely be bent to 125 if you know how to do it. I'm pretty sure there is a brake-bending thread you could search for that will have...
Best day of the year for me. Hands down. There had to be 20"+ of perfect UT blower up high. My first few runs were one big face shot. Unreal.
It looks like both AT bindings and AT boot sales saw little or no gain over previous years.
The AT numbers lead me to think that the bulk of that 57% increase in backcountry ski sales is a change...
I use 130 brakes on mine with no problems.
I once had a consulting gig with a company that was setting up kiosks in medical facilities. I believe they were going with Kiosk Information Systems out of Boulder, CO. I never had any personal...
My thinking here is that one pair of skis will be a dedicated backcountry rig and mounted with dynafits. All the other skis in my quiver will be more 50/50 inbounds/BC so I want to have a more...
I had the same problem and downloaded the free version of Malwarebytes and it removed it pretty easily. Since the Antivir was blocking my IE I had to download Malwarebytes on a different computer...
I'm leaning toward mounting my Wailer 112s with Marker Tour 12s. I spent a few days on that binding last season and was pretty impressed. It's lighter than the Fritschi and skis WAY better. ...
PM Sent.
Lander is awesome. Great beer at the Lander Bar. Some of the best climbing in the country. Good kayaking there too...if you're into that.
I don't know if I'd be excited to live there...
I've done a bit of skiing on some Marker Tour 12s in the last few weeks and I've been really impressed. I think they ski much better than Fritschi's and are noticeably lighter. I'm a pretty light...
The production version will have a slightly squarer tail for climbing skins. It won't alter the way it skis...just makes it more user-friendly for the backcountry crowd.
The round tail was the...
Pure Carbon+Nano construction skis will stay at $1199 on the DPS website.
There will be a preorder discount announced soon.
Hybrid 112RPs will be $799 dollars. :fm:
I spent a bit more time on this ski at the DPS Riders Weekend in Jackson. As you might guess the aggressive tip splay and rocker result in killer pow performance, but the real story with this ski is...
The DPS Demotour is slowly winding to an end. The final 3 weeks consist of:
This weekend we visit Hoodoo in OR.
Feb. 12-13: Stevens Pass.
Feb. 14-15: Alpental/Snoqualmie.
Feb 19-22:...
The RP won't make it to the demotour crew in time for the WA demos but it'll definitely be at Riders Weekend (along with another 30 pairs of DPS Skis mounted up for free demos.) More info re: Riders...
To be continued...space reserved?
Borat once traveled long and hard across America in search of Pamela Anderson, or affectionately known as 'my pam-ela'. For Mike, his search met similar obstacles, but aided by the new DPS Wailer 112...
Checking in from SIA where I've heard more than a few people say "hey, I partied with the DPS demotour crew at a house party in Tahoe/Bozeman/PC/SLC/CB!" Thanks to the Mags for all the beers,...
Sickness.
This setup is in really good shape...has around 40 days total use mostly in the backcountry. Skins are BD ascensions and are trimmed to fit. If you'd like more info or more pics let me know and...
Bumping this up...if they don't sell this week I'm putting 'em on EBay.
These are new and still in the box. They are last years boot but the only change from last year is a tiny change to the liner. Size 27.5.
I was thinking $600 as they are brand new and I haven't...
Yeah, we were really bummed too. Lucky for us Alta was cool enough to host us at the last minute...it just sucks that Solitude season pass holders are gonna miss out.
Whattup Maggots. Back for the weekly DPS demotour update.
The demo rig will be at Deer Valley tomorrow. Perfect place to rock some Cassiars on some fine groomers and watch the World Cup.
...
Actually yes, the Red Baron will definitely stop at the OR resorts between Tahoe and WA.

PM me for the secret handshake.
After a pow-filled long weekend at Jackson/Targhee the DPS Demotour crew is heading to the Bozeman/Big Sky zone.
Full-blown demo at Moonlight Basin on Sunday and at Big Sky Monday-Tuesday.
...
The DPS Red Baron and Elkhorn Lodge are en route to Jackson just in time for a big storm front. Demos Thurs (NYE) at Snow King, Sat-Sun at JHMR and Mon-Tue at Targhee.
After that they're...
Updated the original post because I sold a bunch of stuff yesterday. Still some boots and one full AT setup left.
I was just asking myself why nobody was showing any interest in the BD Lyric setup and realized I forgot to list it. I am a dumbass.
BD Lyrics with Naxos and skins added to original post - $425.
Sorry - I'd check this for you but just sold the R8s.
Also, I lowered some of the prices above.
Lot of interest in the Bibbys without bindings but would prefer to sell the whole thing. Any takers?
The DPS tour schedule is starting to take shape.
This Thursday the crew will be at Monarch and then on to Crested Butte for Fri-Sun.
From there they may make a quick stop in Telluride and then...
I drank the DPS Kool-Aid and my wife and I are both getting Lotus 120s. I might pick up some Wailer 105s as well. Pains me to sell the Bibbys but gotta fund the carbon dream somehow!
The Zzeros...
Bibbys are 186.
298 BSL on the Sugar Daddies.
Good qs. Freerides are M mounted on the line. Fits BSLs from 280-335.
Sorry Gman but I'll only sell those skins as part of the package...they'll work on my new Lotus 120s.
My wife and I are both getting a completely updgraded quiver this season so I'm selling the following:
173 BD Lyrics with Naxos and Ascension Skins Two seasons old and in excellent condition. My...
Bump because DPS will be at Highlands opening day and 15" of snow has fallen this week. Something tells me there are going to be people camped out in front of the DPS tent hoping to take Lotus 138s...
Yep, the DPS crew has been working 'round the clock to get skis out the door and a lot of you will be seeing those sweet brown boxes in the next few days.
Otis - I believe Lotus 120 F3s are...
Curious about this...is Cloudveil moving their headquarters to Boulder?
