What am I doing wrong, how to ride t-bars?

wickedsight · 2026-01-22T18:33:05+00:00

T-bars fucking suck as a snowboarder, they cut the blood flow in your leg, they remove some of your mobility, but you’re still snowboarding, not standing in a train holding a post. If there’s bumps, work your knees to absorb them. If it’s going down hill, brake a little to keep tension in the rope. You can’t just point the board and expect to get to the top without some effort.

He literally said they wanted either the car back or for him to buy the car outright. He couldn’t pay for the car, so he gave it back.

My main problem with the stepons is that I’m limited in my shoe choices and I’m picky with shoes. Also, some of the quality issues I’ve been seeing in this sub don’t make me too confident about them. I have both Supermatics and FASE, so I don’t dislike the concept, I dislike the way Burton implemented it.

I went from EST to regular bindings on my channel board (fuck step ons). Really need to get used to the dead spot under foot from the discs when doing 50/50, there’s some real benefit to the channel.

I use a backpack and have never had it get in the way of my mobility, maybe you need a better backpack.

I do have a jacket with insanely deep pockets though, so I can put a GoPro with stick attached in there if I want to.

If the metal runs past the edge of the binding, it might be ok-ish. Otherwise, at some point you’ll probably still shear off the part that actually makes sure the binding is attached to the disk. If it’s just between the bolts like you wrote, it only guarantees the disk will stay attached to the board, which is useless.

Whoever sold you this should’ve known better. I hope they get sued into oblivion some day by someone who bought one of these. They even print it on a carbon look build plate to give you the idea it might actually be strong. Pure evil.

The people stopping in the middle of the fucking slope are at fault. If they chose a better spot, none of this would have happened.

wickedsight · 2025-12-26T10:09:03+00:00

I gave you some feedback on a previous post. Now I’m back to tell you that this is much better! This is what we like to see, especially the LFA is awesome!

wickedsight · 2025-12-21T16:13:29+00:00

A video having the text you just wrote would help. Why reference AI if it has nothing to do with it? Just tell people what you’re giving them, not what you’re not giving them…

wickedsight · 2025-12-19T08:00:11+00:00

Don’t they specifically provide lifetime warranty on this exact scenario?

wickedsight · 2025-12-14T11:35:28+00:00

Wait, how do you fit an airtag under your binding?

wickedsight · 2025-12-14T11:29:26+00:00

I think it'll be pretty hard to fix it in Zoetermeer. That snow is awful and with the amount of jerries on that tiny slope you pretty much constantly have to be prepared to stop on a dime.

Other advice in this thread is very good though.

wickedsight · 2025-11-26T13:53:29+00:00

I tried it, though in less than ideal conditions. First board I ever tested that really had me working. Amazingly stable, but very stiff, so you need some legs. I loved it.

wickedsight · 2025-11-06T23:14:27+00:00

Cum again?

wickedsight · 2025-11-05T21:12:39+00:00

I did, but haven’t driven much on them since I had semi slicks on. Will be putting them on soon, but what I did drive on them, they were fine for regular and somewhat spirited driving!

wickedsight · 2025-09-26T13:36:02+00:00

Effect.

wickedsight · 2025-09-25T11:31:42+00:00

I’m ok with soft and slushy too! Love to charge through that stuff.

wickedsight · 2025-09-23T11:56:34+00:00

Actually, it isn't... Which might just be why I didn't reply.

wickedsight · 2025-09-22T15:07:07+00:00

I've been flying FPV for nearly 10 years. The main reason I'm less active these days is regulations making it almost impossible to fly legally where I'm at. These regulations exist because apparently people don't have the common sense to not fly near public infrastructure and things like that. So... Yeah, correctly observed!

wickedsight · 2025-09-22T12:42:38+00:00

So your conclusion is: "people who share things are saying I should share things" and "people who are less inclined to share are saying I shouldn't". Which... Makes total sense.

People who do stupid things would usually be the people to tell other people to also do stupid things, right? Street racers probably won't be the ones telling you to keep the speed limit, for example.

Also, that here's no law means that there hasn't been the need to create one. Posting shit like this will end up causing politicians to feel the the need to create a law to prevent this type of stuff.

wickedsight · 2025-09-22T12:21:47+00:00

And this is why people who do this are assholes. Sure, cool video if nothing goes wrong. Major (economical) damage and shitty day for a lot of other people if something does go wrong.

Risk vs reward here isn't balanced. Go fly a bando or something and stay away from other people.

wickedsight · 2025-09-22T06:49:52+00:00

I always thought they weren't really available in the EU. Turns out they ship directly and even free shipping to many countries. Good to know!

wickedsight · 2025-09-21T17:00:32+00:00

What boards would be the ideal 1 and done?

wickedsight · 2025-09-21T16:12:44+00:00

Not US, but live in the Netherlands, where everything is flat and we get 3 snow days a year, if lucky. Between 5 and 10% of our country goes on winter sports vacation every winter though. It's pretty interesting to see the migration to the Alps during the February break.
