    166 afterbangs for 5 6- 5 7 guy?

    ok there have been a lot of threads on sizing, and im sure most of you would say too small, but I was wondering about how line sizes their skis? because I've heard that they are quite long, and my buddy just told me that he saw some 155 afterbangs that were as big as 161 suspects. is this...

    A Couple of Days with Birk Irving (9 years old!) from Frank Traylor on Vimeo.I've seen a couple threads pop up about young skiers lately, so I figured I'd post this.

    HD slomo in finalcut express?

    I'm editing some hd footy in finalcut express and I've been having trouble with slowmotion. it seems like every few frames it'll suddenly jump back a frame, which makes the slomo look really choppy and weird. It only happens after its rendered, when i first enter the speed for the clip its...

    Dumb habit on rails...

    So I slide left foot forward but I spin right. Whenever I'm just getting on to a rail and sliding it normally I either dont get a full 90 on or I slide off the left side (the way I spin to get on). If I'm doing any tech on the rail at all I'm totally fine, its only when I'm just hopping on...

    Getting on to urban the right way?

    so ive got a habit of stepping on to urban-style rails, and whenever theres a decent sized urban, i can only step on. needless to say, it looks like shit and kinda messes me up for whatever else i want to do on the rail. when i do manage not to step on, i pop all akward and barely make it...

    New goggles?

    Im looking for some new goggles. I currently have spy soldiers, and although they do seem to fit my face fairly well, they stick out really far off my face (like height-wise kinda) which bugs me... and also theyve been fogging like a bitch lately. so what are some good goggles that dont fog...

    3 pairs of holes in one ski?

    so... i have these skis from a couple years back that got mounted by mistake at -9 origninally, but then i got them remounted up to -4. now i was thinking of moving them up to center and use them for an urban jib ski to mess around on... but that would mean drilling a third pair of holes. is...
