    that ep was nutty!!!! the ride along with stig in the king of the hammers rig was nuts, going 20MPH or more down that trail, i think he even drifted some of the corners ha ha ha

    I always wonder how real the races are though because they have so many angles of both racers, working in the industry i know how many things get staged and Im assuming some of it is staged bigtime!!! That show always has such great camera work

    Ive got a buddy who films for the show, and he says 90% is not staged. they are always surprised how close the races are.

    wow, thats shocking. how many camera ops are set up to shoot the races? unless they are just setting up camera rigs and then only manning a couple of them thats nuts. Heli rigs as well if i remember right on some of the following shots. such a great show by the way!!!

    He's not kidding. When I found this place I thought all I was going to do to my truck was put tires on it. Now I have spent so much money on it so far and I only got it in February. I love it though. I probably would have pissed away the money if I didn't have something to do with it. Or saved it...:eek:

    you could have pissed away all your money by giving it to me!!!! for mods of course

    thanks for all the boot recommendations guys, looks like i have to try on salamon, DC, and 32.

    Ride, K2, and Burton are almost out of the question, i had the K2 Darko's and they sucked. had the Burton Imperial's last season and made my feet go numb with odd pressure points, and Ride boots are made by K2 and will have similar problems. Sucks because I love my ride board, my k2 board, and wont buy anything but ride bindings.

    If you don't like a stiff boot, then you probably won't like DC. I've got bad ankles and they work really well for my needs. The biggest problem I've seen with DC's is that people way overtighten them when they have the boa cable system, and then their feet get real cold because they cut off their own circulation. Just a note if you try em on.

    Might be my issue with my burtons. I have a tendency to tight the liner up super tight cuz I hate my ankles moving in there.

    I have a pair of Salamon BOA's that I got last year. They totally changed my riding experience. Very comfortable and I was able to ride the entire day without any discomfort. Like Rockgecko, I was using some DC's and they are crazy stiff and painful. I made the mistake of overtightening my BOA's when I first got them but I learned not to do that really quickly! ;)

    Right now I'm looking to buy a new board. Sold my Burton Sherlock last year and I think I'm going to get the Never Summer Heritage board. Demo'ed several boards at the end of the season and the Never Summer was the best by far! Still looking for a new helmet that I can put some audio into that can take a beating and has decent ventilation so I don't cook my noggin.
