Some of us remember teamdirt posting some very serious stoke back in the day...hot tubs - maybe at the bottom of big drops but I remember more clean stomps, personally.

You're not alone. Their QST topsheets have been blah for awhile. The bottoms look sick, though.Quote:

Zuzupopo has also published a bunch of snowboard brands' lineups for 2022, including LibTech, Gnu, Rome, Roxy and Allian.
I decided to go out on a limb and downsize my backlands/hawx to 26 to try and further reduce the forefoot volume. This is coming from a 27 backland carbon most recently, 28 alien RS before that (i measure a true 27.5). I had the 26 shells memory fit, and a big toe punch added on the hawx. On the first day in the backland, it still loosened a bit in the forefoot, so I decided to swap back in a protour liner with a supportive footbed. Feels like a good fit so far. I was using the same liner in the 27 backland, with the size reducer shim. Fit on the 26 w/o shim feels a lot like the 27 w/ shim. Overall, I'd say the downsize could be a good option for the low-volume crowd, but I still only have a few days on each boot.Quote:

How's the walk mode on the Quantum Free compared to the Asolo Factory and compared to the ZGTP?
Seems good walking around the showroom for a minute; I won't be able to ski it until next month at the earliest.Quote:

They were at first. They essentially made their own version of it after all the athletes were having so much more success on the white Rossi boots.Quote:
