  1. Didn't do anything to them...just put them on my ski...laced the front one down as much as I could and left a little room for movement on my back one and then skied. It went really well. And I'm talking about the 2012 Talons...they are different than the hardshells with the fogman system --those are called the Stealth. They have this cool little achilles tendon holder thing inside the boots and are like a cross over between a hardshell and a rubber. They lace up the foot and a separate lace up the front of the leg. They don't have that hinge tech stuff on them though. I'm trying to find a pic and can't find one. I'll take one of my ski and post in a bit. I really like them. :)
  2. Just my two-cents...I havent tried t-factor yet but just jumped on a pair of 2012 Connelly talons and am in love. They are so comfortable and I have so much more control. I feel really connected to my ski---especially laterally. They are stiff side-to-side without losing any of the forward/back movement i like with my rubber bindings. I highly recommend them. I switched from 2004 animals to 2010 ones last year and it took me a few sets to adjust. My first set on the Connellys I skied my best I had skied all year...
  3. Thanks Than :) We will have to coordinate some other time. Where are you based? I'll be all over the place between now and November...You can also shoot me an email I love this kind of discussions! (krista.m.rogers (@) gmail )
  4. Thanks Jody! That means a lot. Monica and Stephen both skied great. 180 was awesome! It wasn't really the way I wanted to go out my last year in W1 (yikes!) but happy to be in one piece (sort of...) Can't wait to see Monica fly next year. It was an awesome tournament and so well-run... Thanks to all who helped!
