lemon: yes, you can use trekkers w/ dukes. i wouldn't recommend it though, since you'll have to get out of the bindings to switch modes. :eek:
chris knight: you don't get it. stack height is good for you. better angulation. and, since dukes are all freeride oriented, think about skinning in super deep pow. the stack height will make you tall enough so your head is actually above the snow so you can breathe. :nonono2:
we have snorkels for that, thankyouverymuch.Quote:

Personally, I don't like being clipped in so I just stick with flat soled skate shoes and powder straps.Quote:

Spats and cufflinks is what I am using, and risers.

tongue in cheek man, tongue in cheek :)Quote:

The real question should be can you telemark on Dukes if you use trekkers? And before anyone "jongs" me, "yes" I did search :confused:
^^^^^
No no. You're all confused. Alpine Trekkers are for Alpine skiing. You need the Telemark Trekkers to tele on the Dukes. Works better with a Derby though.

Who's the Jassbag now, eh?
I only trust reviewers named Bob. It's safer that way.
how will this settup match my purple Bogner?
Derby Flex and risers....!!!!
If I am taking a ski trip to south america do I have to switch which ski I mount the duke on in reverse?
Also, I heard a rumor that when I'm riding the park with dukes and trekkers, its impossible to rotate counterclockwise, can anyone confirm this?
Tanner Hall could, but I heard he died.Quote:

Yuuuulp. Thanks for the reassurance. :kissyface:Quote:

what's SAC? do they have a trekker/duke combo?
