    Hoji & his cat like reflexes are amazing. I wonder if he ever bumps into them…

    all of hoji’s pow slaying and hucking is making want to get more air time again…like in the old days when ripping the village. i’m thinking about beefing up at least one set up with a shim under the heel of the boot when engaged in dynafit…to add support and maybe strength to the heel posts.

    you still keep thinking you know who I am…but you don’t.
    35 is true, but I am Salty beyond my years as my parents put me on skis waaay early and I got a head start on y’all.

    Can you confirm which Dynafit binding Hoji’s using? Or is it one of his personal mods?

    RandoSteve, I went back to skiing with my brakes (bent to fit my Lotus 120’s) in order to gain heal/post strength. The brake acts as a shim. I haven’t broken a post since.

    Titan Ultralights just arrived in the mail…

    negative LTD. i’m not even certain that he’s skiing on dynafit in all these clips.

    Thanks, RandoSteve. I’m trying to decide which new Dynafit binding to purchase… the TLT or the Radical. These bindings are for my new Lotus 120’s which will be used for JHMR sidecountry as well as skiing the Park and Pass. What’s the weight difference? What binding would you choose?

  14. randosteve says:

    radical ft-599g…vertical ft-530g…so 69g difference, or ~2.5oz.

    i would go radical ft because of the power-towers and wider mounting pattern. seems like a no brainer for a crossover binding.

    Thanks! I may stop by Skinny Skis in the upcoming weeks to mold liners in my new boots and check out the binders in person.

    Amazing skiing, but not sure he’s on dynafit bindings doing it. There are a couple of frames where you can see alpine style heel pieces, and I saw somewhere else that part of the shoot was at a cat ski place, then there are the helicopter, snowmobile shots.
    Am I really watching a vid trying to work out the bindings…

    He hits it awfully hard in Dynafits here: http://vimeo.com/31047821

    Unless that’s really footage of Randosteve!
