Can you embed photos from My Media, or is that only possible via the old galleries?
-

nice
muikaboshi - how did you embed the photo?
-
test
ok, i can still so it with the old gallery
-
Is there a way to make a pic display full sized in the post, as was possible before? (By copying a line of code from the gallery.)
Also, is it possible to embed videos in posts?
But yes, being able to add pics to posts directly is a big improvement.

Sorry David, it wasn't very funny. Certainly not worthy of a new thread and it's in my gallery anyway.
For what it's worth, I don't think they're particularly similar. I couldn't remember what the pepsi logo looked like till I checked it online after all this chatter. The photoshop (actually gimp) effort was mainly to see if I could figure out how to put a full-sized image into a thread, which I couldn't . I'll carry on trying with a different pic.

Makes me laugh this. It really doesn't look much like Pepsi at all.
I agree. Look at them side by side and you can see they're both completely different.

Or you could book a shuttle taxi (Chuo Taxi) to take you straight from the airport to Hakuba for about the same price as combined train and coach fares.

apparently not. He said contact the online shop in germany. lol
It's like they don't want to sell their stuff.

the sp fastec distributor said there's no XL sizes in japan. I'm wondering if that's really true.
-
me?? The pro rider in the video is wearing a traditional Japanese yukata robe.
Funny thing about Noz is the locals actually wander around the village wearing those things.

SJ - any way to delete this? I just added a video, the thread was created automatically. Didn't give me an option or anything.

Tubby, did you notice if they have XLs?
-
Looks good. I'll have a play around soon.
At first glance, has "date joined" info gone? It use to be under people's avatar with post count.
You're probably still tweaking this, but there seems to be a lot of lines under some people's avatar which unnecessarily stretches the height of short posts. If that makes sense...

Never Summer do Raptor X in 169cm with 26.9cm waist. Sounds like a good powder board for big feet.

What's Jindabyne?
MB, do you remember which shop in Tokyo? Was it a big chain (eg. Xebio, Alpen) or a specialist ski shop? -
who voted over 100? lol

I've been looking for SP Fastecs online and only found some pretty obscure sites selling them. My favorite online shop doesn't stock them. Can anyone recommend somewhere?

I've just ordered a Lib Tec Skunk Ape C2 BTX wide board from Backcountry.com. It's 172cm, waist 26.8cm. I'm 6'4", boot size US 12.5.
They do a 180cm but I think that would be cumbersome outside of powder. (I tried out a 180cm no-brand 2 seasons ago for a few days and obviously it was great on powder but unwieldy on groomed runs.)
My current board is a Ride 165cm, waist 27cm. Good board but I always felt for such a wide board it should have been a bit longer. Imagine riding a tray. If you're 6'5", 165cm will seem like nothing. My advice is go a few centimeters longer than you think you need (you can always saw off a bit if it's too much). And if you want to be able to carve without toe-drag in size 14s, you will need a very wide board.

Some natives might be offended by your reference to their diminutive stature, but I think it's spot on! -
Thanks MB, I hadn't heard of SP Fastecs. But you're saying even Fastecs are more difficult than regular bindings if you wipe out in deep powder? Is that because they're harder to take off?
That's another thing I heard about Flows - they're faster to put on but slower to take off.
-
I'm thinking of getting some. But I heard they might be more difficult to put on in powder then regular bindings. As riding pow is what I like to do most, that's a worry.
Anyone here got Flows? What do you think?
