i get cramps on the bridge of my foot when i snowboard and its really painful. it also happens when i walk in some shoes [ie etnies lo cut II] does anyone else get cramps in their legs/feet when they ski/board? i think i have a potassium deficiency or something.

it seems to die in here after 11:30pm surely there must be some nocturnal people out there?! maybe im the only sad ass person that stays up this late, and on the computer!

yeh i was thinking about flow bindings. but im skint so wont be making any purchases in the foreseeable future.

i guess any board will look fine with black bindings. get the one u think is nicest. how much do palmers sell for? this is my board, i think it would look pretty decent with red bindings against the black backdrop. and the asian feel.

and the top board is a chicks board right? what size do u take? because the biggest according to palmerusa.com is a 52. the second one [liberty?] comes in a 57 my feet are too big to ride a womens board :s

i dont really like the last one [at all] just personal preference. id go with the first one, and failing that, the second.

if u are going purely on designs... *steps into chick mode* i would get the top one. the colors are consistent and pretty similar, so getting bindings to match wont be very hard. the middle and bottom one seem too confusing and the design seems onesided (because it is) which means bindings might clash on one side and not the other. im sorry i sound like a right bimbo.

verbier, switzerland was rockin. plus they have a nice creperie in the town getting a crepe after a day on the slopes was delightful.

My knees are pretty bad from all the running I do... i use to run, and swim. now im i pretty avid basketball and soccer player. i did it playing basketball. it just sort of moved, and that moment i had never been in so much pain. and from then on somedays i wake up and have really bad pains on my left side, and im literally immobile.

not from snowboarding initially, but my hip gives me heaps of problems when i do ride and i have no idea whats up with it. i should probably get it checked out. but they will probably tell me to stop snowboarding.

im probably going to go once for 5 days in early december as that is all my time permits...and i have to study for mocks.

wow thats pretty decent. devun walsh too, wooooo! i didnt get to see the photos though. no idea why, just wouldnt load. probably because i dont have a mac or whatever. im really looking forward to hakuba now!

im usually on here all the time im on the computer, which is quite a bit at the moment due to the large amounts of work i have. i read more posts than i actually post on though.

i like u2 but not the new song

this place seems to go dead after 11:30...

wow, that looks really good.

You go to a product website to get info, not to look at pretty pictures of people doing stuff you're never gonna do. Are you listening, you ef-wits? haha i could not agree more. i dont really like how all the websites are strictly about the latest ie 02/03 season gear. doing research on older stuff is a pain in the arse.

i was in verbier a few years back and it was stellar. would definatley return. anyone boarded/skiied switzerland?

fries - "potato" fried in lard at maccas chips - potato chips u buy at the supermarket. although i normally call them by their respective name ie. pringles. wedges - wedges of potato

yes, practically every site now is flash. and a nightmare to navigate. mind u, university websites are even worse. i was put off a uni because there website was so damn un user friendly ( )

I could prolly do with some of them! thirty-two is strictly a snowboarding boot brand. www.thirtytwo.com they make some of the lightest boots on the market. i think they are a canadian company if i am correct.
