 Poster: A snowHead
|
With Amplid UK not being forthcoming with a test pair of anti-dogma's, I am now looking elsewhere, namely AR6's in 176cm (major frustration after good initial feedback).
Anyone know a dealer selling them yet????? also, anyone tried them, or know where I can try them????
Cheers

Edmundh009, thanks for the info.
Can you ever have enough pairs of skis????
I would get them in resort but alas no bag space as my cute other half is taking her twins too, although may be able to commandeer Jarvski's space in his bag lol

I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you first as Neil is the man to talk to on price (he says with a wry smile)
Jarvski is Tom jarvis, long friend and fellow jibber, well trainee, who got a pair of Salomon X-Wave 8's back at the start of the year

SZK, I PM'd you a while back and had a chat about the boots. You suggested I spoke to CEM, which I did yesterday. Happy to take this to PM rather than to hijack this thread.

Hi Adam and all you other dudes, hope you dont mind me jumping in. Adam told me there was some AR6 chat on this forum and I fancied getting myself a piece of the action.
The PX 12 Jib is the same basic binding but has cool graphics, a soft and Green shock abosrbing pad under it and importantly, wider brakes.
By the way I hear it is snowing in colorado, fingers crossed for an awesome year!

Hey Neil,
Apparently there was 1 not known resort open 22nd Sept, according to Armada!
A farmer friend has long rance forecasts and its going to be a cold winter according to him.
Lets hope thats a good indication for lots of snow
How did you get on with mounting the PX12's?

I dont know whether I'd consider myself a jibber. I just seem to end up in the park when conditions are less than favourable. Really trying to impove on my riding switch so I can control my zero spins better. I like to spend some time on easy rails and boxes. I am spending a season in Canada this year so plan on impoving my park skills.
I have k2 seth vicious 179 (mounted +4, going to get em remounted at core).
Scott p3 178 (mounted 2cm forward of core).
I am 5'10" and 150lbs, I'm 22. I wonder Adam, why you didnt go with the 181cm Armada ar6. Alot of jibbers are on http://www.newschoolers.com but I think most of them are 15 years old. There is the odd thread on there that interests me though, especially when comparing park skis.
I think a ski resort called Brighton was first to open, but they closed straight after, publicity stunt really.

Dude, how can you be a "jibber" or a "park rat" if you don't have any steeze? If you're not tweaking your shizzle you don't belong in the park.

adam_button, your written English is far to good to be a proper jibber - consult newschoolers to pick up the proper lingo

WOOHOO! AR6's rock!
whats different from last year?
Well, up on the AR5's - theya re a bit stiffer, lots more pop coming off the ramps, edges look wider although it could just be me. They are lighter and the vertical sidewall is better.
That and Mr T graphics kick ass
To say I'm happy would be an understatement!
