What part of MI?
Maybe we can hook up.

I'm hoping to head down to the 'ville for a Saturday ride soon.

Sturgis, Mi on Klinger Lake
 
Lookin good man, the barrel roll is awesome. On the back flip I'd say arch your back inwards more, it looks like you might possibly be even trying to tuck like you would while doing a standing flip. The tucking does help for barrel rolls but I'm pretty sure it doesn't for back flips on a ski. Kepp up the good work!!! :biggthumpup:

Maybe, but I think the 5mil Lamey helped some too, and the total loss, and the Full Specs, etc.

Did you think it was that much more nose up with the Lip Ripper plate Darin?

Yes, and I did my Wammer plate when I got back and rode it yesterday, big difference.

Can a mere mortal request dimensions, Darrin, Geek, P - diddy? I have a spare Wam plate to carve up.

TIA,

From the Tech FAQ (which Michael950 pointed me to), anywhere from 2-3 inches from flush, out to almost the edge of the flat area. Take a peak at that thread or my recent one from Saturday where I posted pics.

Thanks for the quick response Darrin and JP. I found the threads you guided me to also, they are most informative. Now, which do you guys think better the short plate with the D cut or the Lenzi (with the sharp pieces) extended plate with D cut? And why?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Thanks again.
