I have a pair of three pin hardwires mounted to Altai Koms and have found them to be a little overpowering when the spring tension gives a 4-6 mm gap as is recommended. So, today I experimented with them at lift served skiing (I hate taking fish scaled skis to the resort but it really is the best pl...

Sorry for second post. The Hardwire hooks are not compatible with the Cable or Traverse. The old Rottefella Riva hardwire cable will fit onto the Voile cable binding. What I meant is, does the cable fit on the hardwire binding. I have the hardwire on a pair of koms and wanted to put the cable on my...

Its pretty rare that i bring booze in the backcountry. I'm usualy just in such a hurry but I almost half to at the resort, which is where I am at a lot. Not my preference but I have 4 kids and it is what they want to do. Chairlifts give me anxiety, it's not the height, I just get very antsy when I'm...

Sorry if this has already been covered, I didnt find anything on a quick search. Is there any disadvantage to the traverse other than the cost? Also, is it possible to use the cable on the voile hardwire mount. Thanks!

I'm sure there's some kind of physics to...

That appears to be a pair of Merrell double leather tele boots with a Nordica or similar downhill boot liner inserted in place of the regular Merrell lower cut inner boots. I could be mistaken, but I also was selling beaucoup leather tele boots in the 80's and 90's, in Colorado, by the hundreds, an...

Just restored these thrift store merrell leather boots using nicwax's leather product and very pleased with how they ski. A couple of questions: 1. I'm trying to find info on year and product. They were made in Italy and from what I found on the merrell wiki page, it looks like they were bought out...
