Replying to Forward flexing; Do I suck, or is it my equipment setup?
So...
I love butters. I really do. But I feel like i'm held back by my skis/bindings/dins/IDK. Every time I try to get a good press in, a REAALLY flexed out press, I can never seem to do it. I have tried just absolutely throwing my weight back and holding it, but I only get the skis about 6 inches off the ground.
Also, I can't learn nose butters for my life. You know, the ones that make you squirt a little bit of juice every time you see them? Yea, that's what I want to do, but ever time I try and put enough weight to get the type of flex, I either pop out of my bindings or just can't do it...
So NS, is my equipment at fault? Do I have shit skis for butters? Or is there something i'm missing here...
Reference tables:
Skis: Line Chronics 2014
Bindings: Tyrolia attack 13 (bindings set at like 8. I used a calc online and I put it a few above)
Boots: Full tilt booters (inb4 urmagurd u a fool telt newberr)
