Marcus.AI'm 99.999% sure that is not LJ and it is Tim McChesney and Lvl 1 made a mistake on their Instagram. Conspiracy. Everyone thought it was LJ. If you watch Less Tim McChesney has the same outerwear getup as in the Instagram clip. I'm very positive it is not LJ riding faction. Although that would be sick
This!
Small mistake from our friends at Level1, it's indeed Tim in this clip on the 2014/15 4.0s. Double backies for dayzzz
It's been a goal of mine for quite some time to design skis and I'm stoked to say that has finally come to fruition through working on a project w/ @metallica and @armadaskis // If your floating around SIA come come drop by Booth number 4350 and check out some of the work I've been doing over the past year. #SIA2015 A photo posted by Jøseph Tøney (@joseph_toney) on Jan 29, 2015 at 10:21am PST
scratchskier321can someone explain what that "walk to ride" new pivot toe piece is used for/how it works?
This answers it quite well:
WTR allows skiers to combine a superior level of performance downhill skiing and an excellent level of convenience and security when hiking (ISO Standard 9523). It establishes a norm for fitting rockered touring soles with certain binding setups.
Your typical FT, yeah... but no powerwrap! It appears to be that way on the few boots posted in the SIA gear preview, except the Descendant. I'd have to try it to see if I love it, but I will admit to being a powerwrap kind of a guy. The way you can take em and fold em around your calf like a cinnamon bun, just feels right.
yeahmonFull tilt is moving away from the raichle flexon with a new more krypton style boot
We shouldn't have doubted the man, anyone know why this change to basically they're whole brand of being the same best style since the 80's or whatever it was. Hasn't that all gone with this new style.
Also anyone have any details on this full tilt touring boot?

The only problem with power wrap is it has absolutely no heel pocket/ankle hold

Heel hold should be the function of a properly fitted boot, and insole. Not just a liner. I have rock solid heel hold in a 3 piece boot with a power wrap.

I agree to an extent.
I rode my Cochice's with the stock liner, which has a consider about of heel hold, and with an Intuition liner. There is a HUGE difference.
When I skiied in Full Tilts I always had heel lift issues, even after adding J bars and heel lifts to a properly fitting, 1.25 finger shell fit
Because of the new touring ski (Tallac, narrow and light version of the Governor) the Exit World get a more powder orientated shape. It gets triple camber flat rocker, so the same as the Ghost Train. Yes a true powder specific touring ski!
The Bibby goes back to its old shape and gets semi-cap construction.
Deathwish also gets semi-cap.
All the jiberish stuff in the video was looking really nice. Coats look super clean and think I heard they're gonna be making pants hyped on that if that's true.
Other then the Mesa print, I can firmly say after seeing the line that Saga wasn't thinking during the design process. A lot of the styles are nice, but I see many colorways and prints that scream wack to me. I'm sure it'll be a successful year for them however.
Haha I guess I wrote that weirdly. But I don't have their hoodie, I was just saying if I did I'd rather have a lot of discreet logos than 3 massive shitty logos.
