My 5 year old's new backcountry(oops) setup

Altai Balla Hoks arrived the other day. Finally got some bindings on them. The NNN appears to use the same rear holes as NN, made it easy to use the binding as a template. My local shop had some M6 hardware that looks like it will work well. I had to drill 3 more holes for the rest of the binding, b...

Re: Scarpa T Race 28.5. The white and reds

Hey Carl, Just wondering if you tried stuffing a bigger liner in there? I think Scarpa sizes on the half shell, ie a 28.5 and 29 share a shell, may even share a liner, but it might be worth a look at some LV low volume intuition liners, and a possible punch here or there, and you might have a nice p...

Re: How do I ski the bumps in tele??!!

Re: Bindings 101: Where to mount Telemark bindings (Part I)

My vote is to mount the binding pin line at centre of running surface, especially if you want to be aggressive in your stance. Here is the long story of why I think this. I bought a B&D shift plate for my first tele mount on new to me powder skis, Armada JJs 185, Boot size 28.5. I wanted to have som...
