Her height is meaningless. How much does she weight?

No way the bleacher is a sweet setup.

BB BC Blue

Conditions were great today. The set up in both parks was a lot of fun with great flow. Good job BC.

That was only part of it. There was also an old fridge, a water heater, and a part of a busted bleacher. It was a damn fun session. The truck cap to desk was awesome for doing cab270 boardslides on.

What camera and settings? You need to increase your shutter speed and maybe open up a little bit. Here is a pic I took the other night...

Shop employes or people who work in the industry get product at basically cost.

And that is untrue. I know many people that work for Burton. Boards that do not pass QC are not sold to the public. The only "defect" boards that go to proform are because of issues with color or graphics. Those boards will be marked with a "Second" stamp in the base on the tip or tail.

I usually get them on proform or I buy late or preseason for huge discounts.

Really like their boards and bindings. Not a fan of their boots. I've ridden products from pretty much every manufaucture out there and when it comes time for me to spend my money I almost always go with a Burton board.

Blue is just as bad.

Whos the blonde?

I have like 9 boards (lol) but really only ride 3. I have a 157 for freeriding. A 154 for park riding. And a 151 for urban sessions. The 157 gets fully tuned about every 5-10 days of riding or so. The 154 gets waxed a lot but I rarely ever touch the edges. The 151 gets hit with rub on wax prior to a session and thats about it.

Yep. Basically a foam pit for the snow.

No they don't. Crowds drop off towards the end of March every year no matter how much snow the mountains have.

Not so much. Watch this and you'll see that these work very well and you can see how they would protect you and not cause any significant injury.

You heard wrong.

Sounds pretty sweet.

I haven't been to bear since last wednesday...can I get a quick update on the park since I plan on heading up tomorrow.

I don't think it will ever completely go away. Pipe boards, for one, still benefit from regular camber. I think we will start to see a lot more variations of reverse camber setups for a few years and then most models will with some version of it.

What board is it?

There are plates for both Forum and Drake bindings that will work and the board will ride fine...but it is completely counter productive to use a non EST/ICS binding. It is designed to be used as a complete system.

A quick solution would be to not fall on your face.

Yeah I adjusted them at home on both occassions. The issue wasn't so much that it was hard to get into but it was difficult to get them to feel right. Sometimes the toe felt loose when the ankle was tight and visa verse and it would vary between runs. The concept is good, but its just not something I like. For something designed to make strapping in faster I certainly found myself spending more time adjusting them then I ever did with regular bindings.

Not a fan of the Contrabands at all. I demo'd them last year and rode a pair again this year. I had similar issues with getting strapped into them with 1 pair of boots (32 Lashed) but was fine with abnother pair (Burton Hails).
