What is allen lam's v-cut? i understand its a modification of some sort but what is it? pics would be helpful :) and also does anyone have a link of the video of someone dunking in Fulltilts? i heard about it on their video and was curious. thanks.

P.S. I was kind of confused as to where to place this because it is my first post on NS. I think i'll make another thread for the Full Tilt dunk thing in Ski Gabber.

i just got new IL MOROs and they are out of this world. they come pre V-cut, but there are special inserts if you dont want the flexibility.

pretty much this is going to seperate freestyle from alpine skiing. finally, freestyle is born

see look, i even removed the white spoiler and it's still not a real v-cut. it doesn't really feel much different anyway. if you cut the cuff on a line that followed the chain, then you'd have a v-cut.

Thats kinda how i felt about his response as well. We need more people that want to do their own thing and come up with new ideas. Its not like he is forcing you to cut your boot. He likes it and maybe others will to. Step outside your comfort box.

It is very common to cut a v out of boots to soften them up, done in shops all over the world. Allen is simply taking it to the next step. Stop the hate. He likes them, you dont, they are HIS boots so fuck off.

Curious?

Are all of your boots modified in such a manner or is this just for the park? I get the extra flexibility would be advantageous on rails giving more freedom and pop-a-bility.

But surely you enjoy the stability and support ripping big mountain lines and huckin' cliffs with a fully intact boot, no? It must be wiggly when skiing aggressively even when you are accustomed to it...

What I am getting at is basically: these cannot be your only pair of boots.

Do you guys have a superpipe? Or is it one of those 18ft jobs?

I been working on park tricks with a telemark setup and I definately enjoyed the freedom of movement (like yourself) but in the pipe I found it way too sketchy, the near vertical walls demand something extra to pump through without landing backseat or frontseat and losing control, and not to mention looking the fool....

Do you have an edit of your pipe skills so I can reference it?

lol at everything in this thread.

But you still should have a disclaimer in any how-to video or write up on the internet. You normally always see one because this is America and people never take responsibility for themselves. If something happens, they look for anything and anyone to blame. It's fucking retarded, but it happens.
