jared 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I'll tell you what I'm planning to buy now so you dont have to say "jesus you didnt buy a xxxx those things are the crappiest xxxxs around" after I have made the purchace. Mammut Barryvox Tranceiver Orthovox 320cm probe (or life link composate probe/pole with an extender or 2) BCAccess Alpine treckers Ascension skins (not sure which ones yet) all this stuff x2 one set for the wife. There is a chance she might be getting some LBF's if we can find some cheap enough. any thoughts/warnings/comments What are you getting this year? Link to post Share on other sites
amandanism 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 im getting some bindings. im half thinking i might get some flows. but im not really sure yet. im not sure how compatible 32 boots are with flows. 32 boots seem pretty chunky in comparison to the space the flows offer.

snowboard_freak 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Amandanism - sfg had some 32 boots. They were ok in the Flows after we shaved some of the extra rubber off. Howvever, her boots leaked. She had wet feet the whole time we were in Japan. Not fun. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 So in fact, they weren't really OK with the Flows after all. Au contraire, they were an expensive disaster. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I also have a pair of 32's. They did not go so well with my Flows plus they were too small. I used them twice. They now reside in my spare room. Anyone want to buy a pair of 32 boots? Link to post Share on other sites
snowboard_freak 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Well they were actually Ocean. Once the rubber was trimmed a bit they fit in the bindings well. Trimming the rubber away had nothing to do with them leaking. It was just on the sides of the heels and wouldn't have played any role in keeping water out. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 lbfs are a great all round ski the short pair or pocket rocket 165s would be fine. my wife is about 48 kgs and 160cms and they are fine. Link to post Share on other sites

I need to buy boots this year (last years are still slowly digesting - c'mon it's leather and rubber). Unfortunately it looks like I will need to buy them in Japan as the Fargos I am hoping will fit well aren't yet out on the shelves. I'll also be picking up some bindings.
