Mmm, poached bumps on Fiddle and Bear. Time to set up the car pool.
Oh OH,, MtnMan, you can drive, right? Can I trust you with the van for a few pickups and beer runs?
You hooked me up pre season, I'm there for you post season. Consider it done boss.
B)
Yeah Baby the Gimp Express!
Count me in... I'm there... and this time I won't try to snap my neck in half on vertigo beforehand :)

I was looking at those myself but have not demoed them.
Ty, what's your boot size? If all our binding settings are the same, you're more than welcome to try out mine.
The boot size is 7.

Becareful, there's more to it then just the boot size. The boot length may not be the same.

The man speaks the truth. Look at the boot sole length, usually located on the heel. I could probably adjust the bindings since you two look like you may be the same size. I'll have to search for my DIN chart though.

hehe.... Sorry to laugh MtnMan (actually laughing at your revenge to Rusty) but I still can't believe they lost you two. And.... I can't believe you walked over a mile and 1/2 with your knee. No wonder you slept so late. Thank goodness for the alcohol 'cause I bet that helped to diminish the pain.

I like this too, my Darksides have really helped me out in the trees & bumps. Are twin tips "the new mogul ski?"

I agree though. Ever since I bought the twins a couple years ago, they seem to run better in the moguls, less tail catching on the backside of the moguls.

It's actually shell size that matters, not boot (foot) size. Found that out this season when wife decided, spur of the moment to buy a new pair of boots, while I was having bindings put on her new skis. New boot is the same size as the old but the shell was a little bigger so the bindings needed to be done.
Ski tech was not happy with me that day......

They felt very very smooth... granted I was skiing hero bumps with nice lines and light forgiving corn snow. I'm looking forward to taking them out again, maybe this afternoon if the sun happens to pop out.
How's the knee feeling MtnMan?
