We have more that 3000 news outlets here in the US of A. How many in the Great White North? I'll wait.

Lmao, you do know nearly all of them are either owned by a small minority and/or are network affiliates, right? Surely you cannot be this ignorant in today's day and age.

Actually fisheater what do the Dovre look like and how do they fit the Alaskas? Dovre made 71, 75 and 79mm bindings, some with 3 screws, some with 5. If they look good and fit I'd send you postage fees. The EMS I have are very light but also seem kinda fragile and aren't the best looking, and this s...

fisheater , thanks but I don't know if that is necessary, maybe save the postage... I do have EMS 75mm that have the same hole positions and are actually 75mm and fit the Bre nicely, so I guess I will just use those. My issue was that while the holes line up, the pins are about 1cm up, though I gue...

"Swedish tabloid Expressen revealed Wednesday that government officials have been ensuring in advance that all places frequented by Gender Equality Minister Paulina Brandberg are free of bananas — due to the minister’s strong phobia of the yellow fruit. In several emails seen by Expressen and descri...

"The name, ‘Hok’ {hawk}, is the Tuwa word for ski in the Altai Mountains." Spit on that thang?

More seriously, what would be the advantage of this over Kom since dimensions are similar? Skin vs scales, plate plus insert...what other differences?

These are Crispi Bre. I suppose I could try other boots but my old (80s?) Crispi Mountain and UK Army Surplus Alico Ski March all fit the same as far as width goes in my other bindings (the Ski March has a thicker duckbill which is an unrelated issue--the width and lateral play between them all is t...

I had never heard of size specific 75mm either. There is enough room for at least 3 id cards at the front side of the duckbill, even more space a bit further back, behind the bail.

I did not measure and see nothing descriptive re 79. Holding it up back to back to another binding it definitely looks 79 though. The issue with using the 2nd binding is the screw holes are the same but the pin line is different and I don't feel like plugging and redrilling, or having the pins 1cm f...

I got a used pair of skis with old Villom 3pin binding sized large, says for boots 41-47. I wear 40. There is a ton of play side to side when clamped. Any suggestions how to fix this on the binding (not messing with my boots)? I figure some bit of tape on the inside of the wings would work, if it ho...

IMHO the last version is the one to get; it's more up to date on gear and technique. There have been changes since it was published, and I was always hoping there'd be another edition. Working through the exercises in Paul's books made a bigger impact on my skiing in less time than anything else. H...
