Re: Voile cable binding vs traverse

Sorry for second post. The Hardwire hooks are not compatible with the Cable or Traverse. The old Rottefella Riva hardwire cable will fit onto the Voile cable binding. What I meant is, does the cable fit on the hardwire binding. I have the hardwire on a pair of koms and wanted to put the cable on my...

Re: Booze

Its pretty rare that i bring booze in the backcountry. I'm usualy just in such a hurry but I almost half to at the resort, which is where I am at a lot. Not my preference but I have 4 kids and it is what they want to do. Chairlifts give me anxiety, it's not the height, I just get very antsy when I'm...

Voile cable binding vs traverse

Sorry if this has already been covered, I didnt find anything on a quick search. Is there any disadvantage to the traverse other than the cost? Also, is it possible to use the cable on the voile hardwire mount. Thanks!

Re: Merrell leather boot questions

Skiing on lighter gear made you ski "better than ever"? That's amazing, thanks for sharing your experience What's interesting is that the actual weight is about the same as my plastic boot (garmont synergy, 265 size) but it does feel lighter when in the ski. I'm sure there's some kind of physics to...

Re: Merrell leather boot questions

That appears to be a pair of Merrell double leather tele boots with a Nordica or similar downhill boot liner inserted in place of the regular Merrell lower cut inner boots. I could be mistaken, but I also was selling beaucoup leather tele boots in the 80's and 90's, in Colorado, by the hundreds, an...

Re: Merrell leather boot questions

Just restored these thrift store merrell leather boots using nicwax's leather product and very pleased with how they ski. A couple of questions: 1. I'm trying to find info on year and product. They were made in Italy and from what I found on the merrell wiki page, it looks like they were bought out...
