  1. I switched to getting up with both palms down. This helps keep the ski away from the handle
  2. The pan is 45deg/sec My calculations indicate it needs 60-67deg/sec pan. Specs also indicate a tracking distance of 2-30feet. Would need a 60foot tracking distance to film 15off. Specs are close though.
  3. No binding is completely safe. I was on RS-1s then Stradas until I hit the 3 ball and severely strained my left/rear ankle. Always kept the laces snug but not tight. Front foot came out rear foot didn't. When the ski rolled it rolled it my ankle. I've been on Reflex front with r-style rear for two years and have had no foot/leg injuries but it could still happen.
  4. I have extras. We don't use them anymore. Not sure what they would cost to ship from SC to Orlando. I'll check how many I have and get back to you.
  5. @MattP I tried all 3 of those with no luck.
  6. Thanks John. Why was I not able to post the picture?
  7. file:///C:/MSOffice%20Data/Pictures/handle%20guard.jpg
  8. Trying to post a picture but can't get it to work
  9. Springs should be replaced every 2-3 years
  10. @MISkier its 0.0625 thick, 1/16". The heading is right the tech specs are wrong. I'll try to remember to take some pictures today. I've made about 5 of them and given away material for another 4 or 5. I have yet to have a hole pull through.
  11. Order a piece of this and make 8 of them for $5.26 http://www.grainger.com/product/22JL63?cm_mmc=EMT-_-OpenOrder-_-WillCall-_-SKU&RIID=131706586&GID=&mid=OpenOrders_WillCall Works great. Very strong
  12. 68' V-type. With my Reflex front boot I found that I could position it at 30 1/8 of 29 7/8. Back was way better. I'm not finished setting up my fin but currently 6.869, 2.490, 0.728
  13. Most slalom boxes are 10x8. That difference seems small but I have found that 10x10 vs 10x8 makes a big difference in price.
  14. @gmut The easy answer is yes. I actually use an EZ fin tool and measure to the very back of the ski but I initially determine the difference between the two points. I found the difference on my V-Type to be 0.1 On the Vapor the difference is 0.080
