Went up a couple times and it is almost more dangerous than it is worth. OK, well not even almost, IT IS!Well, finally the forecast is calling for snow all week. YAY!
Thanks for checking in with us. From the specs you described, I think you should be good to go bro! Nice match.
Thanks for the review. I really like the fact that there are only two fittings. Makes it unique. Any pics?
Nice, which model do you have?
Why I ask is that typically, Western US, Alps and larger mountains will have more snow and therefore a softer surface, in which case I would opt for the 146 (larger board). Converse for the Eastern US and smaller mountains.
OK cool and where will you be riding mostly? (location)
So now you have size 8 women's boots?
Thanks for joining us here at frostyrider.com Tini85! I look forward to your posts.
I think getting a smaller board, either one, will help a lot. The Rossignol Myth is a nice looking board. What is your boot size? Maybe I can help you decide which of the two.
Is this guy Canadian? Ay?

Ok, we got the 10 ft Banshee Bungee as a present to each other for Christmas. I'm wondering if anyone else has tried this product. We tried it today, and I am kind of frustrated! The problems we had were- 1) I could not pull it back far enough for Trav to get any speed. I'm a girl so I'm not naturally as strong as most guys, so that could be part of it. 2) He could pull it back plenty far for me, but it was almost impossible to hand off to me with that amount of tension. It literally felt like it was going to yank my arms off when I did take off on it! We might switch it for the 20 foot model, has anyone had any experience with this product?http://www.bansheebungee.com
Looks cool. Maybe it will break in over time?
Lemme guess, still no snow eh?
Your setup looks fine man. If you are ofter on toeside and are too often catching the heelside edge and falling backwards then you have got a real problem that you have to workaround. The good news is that I do not have any reason to believe it is related to your equipment or the setup. That will save you $$! Yeah, magnetraction makes it a little grabbier, but you should be able to get used to it. Let's focus on technique. I think the biggest cause of this problem is bowing while in toeside stance. If you are bending at the waist then you are asking for trouble since it moves your balance around too much and creates too much movement and instability.I will re-post this from one of the other threads here:Here are some tips for how to take a perfect toeside stance:1) Take a natural stance on your board.

Slightly bend your knees and keep your back straight. Stay in alignment to your stance. Do not twist your body. Only turn your head to look in the direction of travel.2) Flex your ankles, lowering your knees and push your hips slowly forward.3) The board tipping should occur naturally. Do not force it. Do not do the “Michael Jackson”. Your stance over the toe edge should not put you off balance.On steep slopes, do not overdo the board angulation. That will only increase the possibility of toe drag which could be disastrous.
You think that could be it for you?
Pics are now attached tot his thread.
