The place for snowboard nerds to discuss...

I was able to play with some Jones Fase bindings on snow the other day. I had my snowskate boots on so didn't get the full experience but I have two takeaways:
1) they seem to perform like regular bindings
2) the whole thing seems pointless. You save a few seconds by not having to insert the tongue ...

I went to a shop yesterday and looked at bindings and came to the following conclusions: the Rome straps seem really nice, Bent Metals are heavy, and I will likely pick up some Union Forces since they hit the quality, adjustability, and price point I'm looking for.

maybe just rub on some wax before you put it in the bag. I'd just use a block wax rather than a paste, as the paste would get on anything it touches. Or don't use a bag? I just put my boards in the back of the car au naturel and don't get rust.

That K2 branding is brutal imo. on the base, that triangle thing for their Family Tree equivalent is cool. Nice.

picked up the 686 Dojo Gore pants over black friday weekend (along with their waterproof Team Hoodie, more on that in the non-outerwear thread) to have a non-ski patrol looking kit (‘22 Longo Jacket in red-orange and the pants in white-black), and these are finally a pant that’s genuinely baggy on ...

@pow_hnd is now running a demo center!

ooh BeaverWax base cleaner!

The BC is a board I'd buy just on the off chance that it would help me ride like Temple or Cannon.

I've ridden the Kill Switch and the Singular and both were meh. Couldn't wait to get off them both. Oh, I did like the Surfari though, but would only like it for freeriding and no sidehits. But since sidehits are awesome I would never get one.
