thats pretty much it. I put sth on my hellbents this season for those reasons, but if I had a pair of FKS I totally would have used those, and Im sure still loved them. I dont think its a huge deal, just can be a pain in the ass to get back into if you come out. Other than that, FKS are great bindings. 185's + powder skis is a great setup if you want something burly.

haha no way bro i want to murder out my splices by buying that lens and i ski wachusett too. i live right down the road. but it is so poorly lit everywhere on that mountain but i still see fine with my fire iridium lenses at night so im thinking dark grey will be okay.

if you think i fire iridium works well at night you either have fucking eagle/cat night vision and you've never used anything better than a fire lens for nighttime conditions.

Would it work to center mount the ar7 because of the 60/40 sidewall thing?

These will only be used for park and mounted with fks 155's.

yes, that's probably where 50% of the people that purchase them will have them mounted.

Why no turntables on a pow ski?? Harder to get in, in pow? Narrower mounting pattern? Can you elaborate this?Oh and!!Looking for a Jacket that meets these criteria:ShellLonger cut (not saga xl long)Black(ish)Goretex or equalSlimmer fit, (non boxy) so it doesnt have all this extra fabric hanging about when wearing a backpack, ect.annyone?

Does anyone know the waist size for Sage in Medium, I know it says 46 cm, but I mean like in same sizing as regular pants. Like how they say 32, what is the Saga size like that?

saga pants are very adjustable.
someone with a 32 waist size could probably wear a M, L or XL by just tightening the velcro enough.

plus they have belt loops.

i has magical pants. they are ok, although i believe only 8K or so. 10/11 FD would probably be better quality-wise, even though i know big spence will dispute this.

Hey anyone happen to have pictures of themselves wearing medium or large Jiberish? Yes I know there's a size chart, but it'd be nice to see some pics of it on actual people.

I would avoid those pants like the plague. I think they are ugly as sin. Not knockin it, just giving you my opinion. If you like them that much then what I think shouldn't matter. If I were you I'd get some solid color pants

i don't mind that, because they're almost exactly like the old LDC Hotbox pants, (best pants of all time) i just hate the color scheme with a passion.

also i'm not a huge fan of Burton/Ronin outerwear as a whole for obvious reasons.

How does armada outerwear fit? Compared to for example oakley baggy fit/normal fit. And this is the tracer/destroyer combo, dont know if it fits differently than the other stuff.

Is the fit of this years LDC going to be the same as last years? I wanna get the jacket (not sure on orange or blue) in probably XL, is that the right size you think? I'm 6 ft 180 and I like my shit baggy but I dont want a dress like this years saga XL, which I personally think looks retarded.

I'm not certain that's even a 155, it doesn't look like it has the Race toe. But it's damn hard to say from the video.
