  1. Many snowboard boots come with U-shaped inserts that you are somehow meant to be able to fit into the heel section of the boot to prevent heel lift.

     

    It's worth noting that snowboarding requires excellent heel-cup functionality or you can't get the board on the toe-side edge effectively.

     

    Take a trip to your local snowboard shop & do some asking. I reckon I saw some in a recent pair I bought (32's) and I know there was a set of these U shaped things in a pair of Burton Serrow's about 4 years ago - I reckon they're standard now. Good luck

  2. I've got a Vireo I'm thinking about letting go of as I rarely use it.

    It's got 2 oz of overfill, it's green with a red liner (looks like an inside-out apple).

    It's probably only done 10 or 15 nights tops

     

    I also have the helios that goes with it if you want the whole kaboodle.

     

    pm me and we can thrash out a price.

     

  3. Yes, much skiing/ split skinning pain. Kyle was babysitting me out, but it was too humiliating falling down that drainage in public so I sent him packing. Nice guy that he is, he waited at the lot for me to get out (or maybe he wanted his rope back). Ha. Snowshoes would have been easier in Le Rat for a ski-novice.

    Anyway, enough moaning from me. Great day, good company, strong lead!

     

  4. ...I'm really pleased that you got to ski ALL the way to the car John & Kyle. I'd be interested to know how long it took you John??

    I got out about 5.30, after swearing at every boulder, tree, and undulation my idiot splitboarding self encountered.

    I've gotta learn to ski.

    Weather was great though.
