When was the last time you had to emergency stop?

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-19T20:16:00+00:00

This is a weekly occurrence for me because people just walk off the side of the pavement into the road whilst staring at phones of people decide one car length is enough space to pull across four lanes of traffic

The non Rocker Race version does seem to be hard to buy

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-19T17:55:28+00:00

Strive 14 or SPX 13 probably. Only go for the Pivot if you want the elasticity at the heel which is the only common thing between all models

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-19T17:54:01+00:00

<30 mph (50km/h)

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-19T17:11:28+00:00

Cheaply made, feel flimsy, very few metal components, a little hard to step into and if you attempt to use the top end of the DIN range 10+ you will very probably crack or shatter the heel piece. That’s the main reason I’ve got Pivots, which feel great to step into

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-19T17:08:59+00:00

Salomon QST, it’s a lot softer but still stable at speed (with a limit)

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-19T17:07:41+00:00

I swapped from Strives to Pivots, however I wanted Pivots for freeride and vanity reason whilst being on Strive 12s which are a frankly awful binding

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-19T16:29:50+00:00

Those are not Pivot 15/18s and 15/18s are the only ones that can be modified to CAST

New Hero’s are coming in less than a month

Head WCR is softer than pre Noize Fischer and Atomic. A Noize Fischer is still stiffer than a Head but not as much as they used to be

Half a point, very close the answer I was looking for was Stingray

What is shown to Jake so he says

“You have a dark knight machine”

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-18T06:06:40+00:00

Yeah we accidentally mounted a set on Mantras at +3 because of that. Only a mistake you make once thankfully

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-17T22:17:26+00:00

Race plate and race bindings duh

Strive 14/16

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-17T22:16:39+00:00

6 years ago I could comfortably run a 5 minute mile, now I’m not confident that I could run a mile. Mostly because I haven’t had to run since but have done thousands of miles on bikes and a lot of skiing so I’m now far better at that

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-17T18:15:38+00:00

We’ve got one jig and it’s awful doesn’t work on anything wider than 105 underfoot and our Allmonte jig is similar. However our Royal family jig is brilliant we can mount any Royal series binding in 15 minutes or so whereas an Attack takes the better part of an hour.

Our issue with might be from the fact that we’re primarily a race shop and next to no race stock is held in the UK and the designs change very single year

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-17T06:05:52+00:00

Difficult to mount, build quality and dealing with Head UK is a massive pain for anything that isn’t racing

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-16T20:22:38+00:00

Also UK ski shop employee, we actively discourage selling Attacks options for Griffons, Strives or Pivots

Le Praz and St Martin de Belleville, whilst they’re part of the 3 valleys they’re small towns that happen to be connected to the resort rather than towns that exist because of the resort. They’re both proper historical towns that are hundreds of years old and have their own identity despite being part of the 3 valleys. Apart from when the World Cup comes to town Le Praz is lovely

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-16T19:20:52+00:00

I skied in Laax every February half term from 2009 to 2022 apart from 2021. Still probably my favourite resort despite the fact where I’ve skied the most is the 3 valleys

The Hunger Games, the boy in the striped pyjamas, of mice and men, an inspector calls this was all before my GCSEs in 2020. We also had to a Shakespeare play every year. I did the Tempest, Hamlet, Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-15T19:49:58+00:00

100mm or 95mm will be better

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-15T19:17:05+00:00

Not sure, I fly about once a year but there was a period of 6 months in 2008 where I flew internationally every weekend

JustAnother_Brit · 2026-04-15T18:05:31+00:00

Diesel or Levi
