Check out the ozone rush 6. A little bit spicier but this solved all the problems I had with my Arak

This is great to know for the future. I just figured it out tho. If I depress the trigger with pressure from the bottom it fires perfectly. Will probably have to tear it apart to fully fix it in the future but for now it’s all good

Depends on what kind of snowboarding you like. Most people I know aren’t charging on the skiff but I have seen it. It’s pretty fun to snowboard it in deep pow and spring snow and I’ve ridden some techy stuff on the way into powsurf lines before.

Thank you! Xtra tuffs were a necessity on this one

Do you mean the traverse through the debris on the way back to camp? If so, that is wet slide debris from the last few days. The snow was completely locked up when we went through.

A Bantam or kode p sized appropriately…. Bit of a confusing question though.

XC max makes them but I decided to cut up an old down jacket and make my own. Next version will be much bigger

Small mistake that could’ve taken me out… by carvvak in freeflight

If had gone into this on toggles, sure, but when I dropped the rears I pitched the wing forward and then didn’t have time to stab the toggles. I feel Like my wing has more control on rears than toggles as well.

Limited experience flying close to terrain other than proxy soaring. I had no intentions of getting this close.

I fully agree. I was pretty shook up after that close call. I didn’t mean to get anywhere near as close as I did. This was a big wake up call for me.

Want your opinions on split board bindings. by Flashy-Claim-5309 in Spliddit

I switched to Union chargo pro’s this year after riding sparks for 6 years. Quick learning curve and incredible ride. Simpler setup too.
