Re: The OutlawX: the most hated Tele binding ever made?

The step-in has not been a problem for me with the Scott Voodoo boots. However, I do not have the brakes and have heard they increase step-in difficulty. Recommend you try without and see if ye olde leashes may be your answer.

Re: Alfa vs. Alpina sizing

Ok, thank you for that info. I am going to hold out until the end of the month when the site claims the larger sized womens models will be available. And, will update the thread with how it works out. I have had for several years now a pair of the waxable version of the Madshus Eon in 205cm and nnn-...

Looking for grip wax in bulk

My longer foot is 27.25cm and wondering 42 vs 43. I have very low volume feet, width right on the A/B line and alf...
