Re: DIY pattern base
That looks really interesting. I have Voile Charger BCs and I find them great going uphill. However the last couple years I have been doing a lot of resort skiing and the Charger BC pattern makes them glide really poorly (I can`t keep up with alpine skiing friends). I do like waxless for most non re...

Rottefella Tele Release Plates
Does anybody have any experience or know anything about Rottefella Telemark Release Plates I picked up a pair used a few weeks ago, I actually bought them because they came with a G3 Targa bindings in really nice shape at a price I couldnt even buy replacement cables and spring cartridges for. I had...

Re: Skis that the T4 will push around with little protest
The only boots I have used for all my skiing for the last couple years are T4s - I have used them so much that when I dragged them out this year I noticed they are looking pretty battle scarred. This year I am using Fischer E89 (actually for 3-4 years) for xc trails tracked or not (I know I look lik...

Re: Ski touring food
We have a dehydrator and do our own. We got into it when we were doing a lot of canoe trips. It is way cheaper than buying prepared meals and in my experience much better. You can make it to suit your preferences and portions. As Mike K said it lasts quite a while, but I find that if you want to kee...

Re: Mounting Vectors (Connyro, etc)
I don't have Vectors but I just mounted G3 targas on my Voile Chargers. I used the boot center mark that was on the ski after looking at many different opinions. It is a bit forward compared with my BD Kilowatts also with G3 Targa that I bought used mounted already. It is very similar to my Volkl Qa...

Re: New Voile XCD skis
I picked up some Voile Charger BCs at 191 cm on clearance in may and still havent mounted them. I am going to mount G3 Targas and plan to ski them in Scarpa T4s. I was thinking I might need more boot but I guess I will find out. I will try them at our little local hill in Manitoba (which normally ha...

Re: What do you do when you can't ski?
As soon as the skiing gets sketchy I start thinking about Mtn biking. Just ordered a new free hub body for my partner's xc bike (it is hard to find free hub bodies for 12mm thru axle and they seem very fragile). We don't have a local bike store within 500km (300 miles) (although we have 3 places tha...

Re: Plea to Americans!!!
I am always pleased when I see anyone else out human powered, good skier or bad, snowshoer or even the occasional hiker, as almost everyone is on a snow machine here. I am the only one around town with a fat bike so if a bike messed up the trail it was probably me (I make a big effort not to mess th...

Re: How much does your xcd rig weigh?
Hello, My first post on here. I thought the comment on comfort and weight of boots was interesting. I have always associated nordic boots with agony for my feet. I have very big very wide feet and nordic boots are normally never anything like wide enough. I have always just skied with boots that wer...
