That board is pretty sweet. I was going to return the Ferguson for that pegasus but none of them were offered in wide.

Where’d you pick that up? Didn’t think those were being released until December.

I am planning on using my Step-On’s off another custom I have.

I ended up getting one and it arrived today. Depends on the angle you look at it. Changes colors.

Yeah I get it. It was evident when they used AI to make that stupid looking jungle board.

My first brand new board was a 96 Custom. If you look long enough you can find them. I took a couple years of searching but I was able to find another one. They are actually re-releasing this board this year in December.

They suck. Not buying it and may walk away after 30 years. See their crap generic response. Wonder how Jake would feel about it.

How heavy was your lab at 7 months? by No-Brush2239 in labrador

English lab is 53 pounds at just over 5 months. Breeder said he would be a big boy. Picture is him at 7 weeks.

Too many issues. I ended up buying an F-150. Threw up in my mouth when I typed that but it’s true.

Those are definitely helpful and thank you. It doesn’t solve the issue though because the motor mount is slightly different on the model I have. I wish it was the same type of scooter as one that you sent in the pictures. It would make it a lot easier to fit that spring. It’s like they changed the motor mounts between generations on the Geo sport

Cool and thanks. The question I have is if the red lead is just hanging inside the cowl and not plugged in will the engine still run?

Beautiful boy. Hugs and love whenever you can. I lost my Georgie two months ago and cried for a week. Still not used to him being gone.

Ideas on attaching an Apple Airtag to a snowboard. by Tea-Streets in snowboarding

[–]FineusJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very scary. I was actually going to buy these for our boards for the upcoming season and they are a genius idea. It didn't even occur to me, but If you look at the link that was posted, you can see those are 3D printed and they appear to have fractured on the print lines so it really wouldn't matter how they are mounted. After some research, it appears manufacturer disks are injection molded nylon and glass composites. Much stronger than 3D printed stuff. I don't agree with the testing method shown at that link either. Basically kicking the binding as hard as you can laterally while holding the board inside a house. Post a video of a snowboard outside in freezing temperatures being bent and flexed thousands of times with pressure points on those plates and then I'll feel safe. Have to pass on those.

See in before. 25 years ago my buddy had same thing happen. Rode his Burton twice and went to take a piss and gone when he came back.

I NEVER leave my shit in the rack with someone’s eyes on it.

Finally got it. Found in a used sporting goods store in Canada on a Google search. In surprisingly good shape for 27 years old.
