Mounted on a scooter or Semi-truck?

If you've got the money, you won't be disappointed. The food is outstanding (albeit, not local as stated above. To each their own). The atmosphere is awesome, great nightlife (when compared to...

If you're lucky like last Saturday Mr Bacon will be spinning the lifts for his bros and he'll probably not let you join...but maybe.

HA, I don't think he understand percentages...i bet he's off two decimals. 0.25%? sounds a lot closer.

Some folks might park at one, grab their skis and head to the other. But actually make...

Agreed, no additional terrain? waste of money.

Look at Alta-Bird. They abut each other, didn't even need a 4 mile gondola to connect and it still is a semi-waste. Very few people have dual...

call rossi, they'll send you a few if you tell them you break them all the time. i've broken half a dozen in the last decade....fortunately the binding works fine with the break.

PM rog, his technique looks very similar to that in the video, I bet he'd love 'em.

It's mainly the unvaccinated measle carrying crazies that i'm running for the hills from. SO SCARY!!!

Yes and no. What happened the other day doesn't happen normally either. But it is possible for all systems to fail. Very unlikely, but i think if you ride a lift you should understand physics and...

That looks like osha approved evacuation technique.

yes... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwPP4i7ENvQ

at a good height.

Counted 48 sled trailers or trucks on my way back from rose today going through the meadow. Insanity!! They were parked almost up to the summit.

Damn was the snow good though!

For rafting? kayak?

You make no logical sense there...If most are respecting you, then maybe try and work with them rather than just close it down. Sharing and compromising is an amazing quality.

Year and a half in on this search...there has to be something out there :) singles?

Anyone cleaning out their closet?

Still looking

Got a call from Lars last weekend asking about design changes/updates/issues!! It should mean that they're back at the drawings board making some revisions. Slop in the tech toe was the main thing....

Each binding is different (looks being the worst).

Also each person's tolerance for the slop is different.

But i'd be amazed with the design as is that anyone with look plates doesn't have a...

Very :biggrin:

The pin fix from the previous page was money. Did one decent tour with only one toe fixed and the difference was amazing. I'm was worried on the one without the pin that over time...

Personally I like the FKS over the Salomon due to the pivot heel. This allows a more natural release and better heel retention in my mind. The toes are fairly similar in design. The published...

I've been on FKS 18 din bindings for about a decade now and can only think of one or two instances that i wanted my ski to release and it didn't. Or didn't want it to and it did. Well over 1000...

this is what happens when you ski marker (didn't even fall till after the ejection): http://www.google.com/hostednews/getty/media/ALeqM5hqozd8AiEqbNfwSUONVEVMcYDmrQ

This is what happens when you...

Just brought up this exact example last week discussing that with my buddy. West Basin completely changed 8+/- years ago when they removed the West B low traverse. Turbi, 5th and stauffy were 10...

Now that all that Salomon bullshit thread hijack crap talk is over with we can get back on subject...who skis that shit anyway?

Photo of pin fix on the look version. Skinned on these once prior...

But then you have to ski markers :biggrin:

I think the key is that these aren't written for the casual observer. If you are casual observing, you should be staying home. I think they were very accurate with the report yesterday when looked...

how many years is this going to take to track down a 182 garbone...anyone? what about singles?

If it's a rock/crap/pow board, you can also fill it with marine putty epoxy. Cheap fix, doesn't slide as well, but as soon as you get off the flats, you don't notice. just keep it on the outside...

to the original question: i wouldn't hesitate to drill the original hole and plug the old. It's a good thing you were that far off :) I've mounted closer with re-mounts close to old holes.

Yep, don't have those. Don't think they're needed for just touring either. Might stiffen the connection up a bit for skiing, agreed.

Plus my screws would then be a mm or two short :)

And...

Crampon holders? No clue what you're talking about :) I am not a Dynafit guy though, so that's expected. Grinding the screws took all of 5 minutes and left a few scuff marks on the bottom of the...

This doesn't matter, as the M6 are for the bindings to plates, then you use M5 for plate to ski, works fine. I mounted mine to inserts. Had to custom make a lot of screw lengths, as I didn't have...

Have you used silicone spray before (ski tops, or anything else to compare two similar situations)? or any other methods? any comments on comparisons?

No, no need to have any thread hold on the binding itself. Only the shoulder is needed to hold the binding on. I reamed my holes out (both plastic and a small amount of the toe piece) with a...

You lose about 2mm with a flat head on the front plates. So a 10mm flat head will project 8mm out the bottom.

hope that helps.

Virbra-tite vc-3 is the ticket. It's expensive, but no problems eating plastic like the loctite. I went though a few p18 baseplates with the blue, nothing with the vibra-tite. I believe jondrums...

If they were the 105 version, they'd be purchased, oh well!! thanks

Someone has to have a pair of these lying around that is trashed and they want to get rid of. or that is brand new. or something in between...

Bingo, actually levered out the 2 right hand side screws. Installing inserts now, should do the trick.

Oh no, I mean machine screw, have it sitting on my desk. Well aware of the difference. What would screw into an insert, versus what would screw into wood.
...

Buddy rips out a tele binding sunday, two screws fully pulled out of the skis.

Brings them into the tune shop to see if he can get some helicoils installed and maybe get back out there.

They...

Still searching!!!

Yes, that is probably an exaggeration, agreed. But it would expand the capabilities of that place immensely There is a drainage to get out from vallacitos...but i'm not sure you want to take that...

If you can find them, old 192 Garbones (105 model). Best hardpack/crud ski I've been on. XXL with rocker. Which is the other option. Rocker your xxl...you won't regret it. Easy to do, and makes...

Native land isn't till the Vallecitos (sp?) ridge. That's a ways from Kachina, few hour skin. The amount of accessible terrain is insane between Kachina and there. The Kachina lift will give great...

And we're back.

Anyone?

My foot measures a 275 on one and a 280 on the other. I considered going 27.5 for comfort, as I'm not much of a tele skier, just putzing around on them. However, I ended up going 26.5 which is a...

For those looking for a crosstrek, looks like there will be a used one for sale in Washington, "minor water damage"
