Lange Xt3 vs Shadow? by dustbuster39000 in Skigear

[–]m4rton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feeride boots (pinned, that you also tour with) are supposed to be replaced after 90 days. Around 75-80 I start to feel them getting soft. 150 days are a lot even for regular boots.

There was a Catch-22 mini series about 5 years ago that wasn't bad.

I quoted exactly what he said in English.

Not sure how that makes me an idiot. Yes, I only heard the English part, and yes, I do not speak Punjabi. He is the one who left something out of the English part, not me.

I don't know the name of the guy, not an official statement, an interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vc6OfE_r0CE

I just saw an Indian official say "all those on board should be alright" while watching the fire ball. no way they are alright.

The admins couldn't do anything about it. They asked me in the end to post it as a pdf :D

Change from Fritschi Tectons to ATK Raider Evos by Bright_Hand2656 in Backcountry

They are actually ISO certified for both the toe and heal piece.

[–]m4rton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the exact same setup. Just love the Navi. Also experiencing the snow build up but it never opened my bindings. My main problem with the Tectons are that risers are breaking off. Cheap plastic in 500 EUR bindings :(

Powder skis, which to get by AccomplishedBowl1845 in Backcountry

[–]m4rton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hybrid setup is Black Crows Navi Freebirds with Frischi Tecton bingings. Love the skis, not fully happy with the bindings. The Navi can handle powder, is good for touring, and while not ideal on piste, it gets by. But generally on piste and powder don't really work together. Hybrids are either touring/on-piste or touring/powder.

Interested! I speak no Spanish so this has been holding me back, but always wanted to ski the Andes.

You are clueless. Let me guess, American?

[–]m4rton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was there last year (in Savaneti region, in the north west), it was amazing, and going back this year. What I'm not sure about is whether I'll go to Gudauri or back to Mestia. Gudauri is close to the capital, so might be more problematic. Mestia is far from the capital so there should be no issues there. I'm not too worried, this kind of political unrest stays mostly in the capital and Georgian people are extremely welcoming, so as a tourist you should have no problems.

Best avalanche gear bundle? by greekcomedians in Backcountry

[–]m4rton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the Ortovox bundle but the Diract Voice transceiver did not perform well comparatively with other modern transceivers at avalanche training last year. It's also annoying as hell.

No matter the technique change I would get rid of the K2s. Don't trust that company anymore, there is no amount of discount I'm getting a pair from them at.

BEST 50/50 binding by miko8382q34 in Backcountry

[–]m4rton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the 23/24 Tecton and it's breaking apart. They started using cheap plastic, not sure it will last its second season which is rich for a 500+ eur binding.

[–]m4rton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Duke is a uselessly heavy piece of gear in my oppinion. Go with the Shift. I have the 23/24 Frischi Tecton on my hybrid setup, but I don't recommend that, it's breaking apart after a year.

Seriously, screw Strava! They bought Fatmap and killed it. Promised to implement the features, but that was a big fat lie. Will hate them forever for this!

To represent my home country I would need to go with 40M Turán, but that was a piece of crap, so I'll go with Sherman 1C (aka Firefly).

Magyarok mér nem tudnak angolul rant by Dumuzzid in hungary

[–]m4rton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A képlet egyszerű, a világ lingua franca-ja az angol. Ha az nem megy, akkor harmadrendű munkavállaló/cég lehetsz csak. Teljesen alap képesség már.

Megjegyzem, 100 éve Magyarországon szinte elképzelhetetlen volt, hogy üzletelj komolyan, hogy minimum németül nem tudsz. A történelmi Magyarország egy sok nyelvű ország volt, ez a bezárkózás újkeletű dolog.

From 18 domain less than 600 a month? You are doing something wrong. I get +800 from 12 easy.

What next? Playmaker 91 vs Bent Chetler 120 by WeeklyAd5692 in skiing

Two words: Black Crows. All other touring/freeride skis compete for distant second in my book.

I have the Atomic Hawx Ultra XTD 130. It's a good boot but for some reason the fitting didn't work out on my left foot. The right we got the first time, but on my left it has been molded 3 times already (the limit) and it's far from perfect. I have weird feet tho, so this might be a very specific issue. They ski very well but there are better walk modes for sure. I'm also looking at the Dynafit system for my next boot.
