Skiing at the resort will make you a better resort skier...
Skiing in the BC will make you a better tree skier...

It's not exactly the same skills. Some level 3 Cansi skiers I know aren't that good in the BC. But on piste? They are fabulous...

Well... Do not buy that shit.

Ok, the boot isn't that bad... They feel like a slipper to me (I do have a pair, I'm not talking BS). But they are fragile and NOT supportive. I use them for cross country skiing... The inner lining is falling appart...

You can get sheets by the meter. You will need metal grip too. https://snowboardmaterials.com/index.php/materials/base-material Another thing; do not be too confident about a release system...

They reduce the sidecut, add a little rocker, etc... But the camber: very stiff. It makes sens in the BC 65 (best design of the lot, theoretically sp...

It might cost you a bit more if they do not have the template... But they can do without if they are good. Ask for a Boot center on center mark (ski mfg mark). If you have a drill & the right drill bit, I would download the paper template and do it myself. I remember a guy at La Cordée (nice shop an...

I know you guys would understand... NNN BC barefoot... THAT IS STYLE!

No Al... It is supposed to give a help to stick that palm right next to the ski... Better feel, better turn, you know...

Ben and I were going through some design thinking R&D last year... Here it is: The New Alpina Telelite-tippy-toe-crusher. Hope to market that beast in the coming weeks. RSVP.
