Originally posted by 318isbmw View PostI've tried that before and never had good success. Now I've got an actual iron and it's been working much better. I found the regular iron's holes in the bottom make it so it doesn't push the liquid as easily, so you've got spots where it pushes and others where it doesn't. A snowboard iron is a lot more predictable.Originally posted by Hugo Stiglitz View PostJust about all my friends use standard clothing irons, even my shop told me I don't need a snowboard-specific iron.

I actually went out and bought a scraper and wax Wednesday night to give it a shot as we went to the mountain today. Between my room mates and I, we had three irons and I didn't see a waxing iron anywhere in town, so we went ahead and used our shittiest clothing iron. It seemed to work pretty well, but I just ran in to an issue with not being able to turn the iron to a low enough heat. It seemed as though I was vaporizing the wax when I went to flatten/spread it. I think that that probably has more to do with the shit quality iron than the fact that it is for clothes. And it ended up working out just fine anyways. So I certainly wouldn't bother going out and buying an iron for waxing.
Speaking of going to the mountain yesterday...
Originally posted by TwoJ's View PostAlso just bought the mounts for this bad boy. And it has been dumping snow this week in the mountains, so I think the room mate and I will take the day off tomorrow and hit it hard.
For the last jump with my right foot forward, I went way too hard, got off balance right off the bat and came down pretty hard on my left shoulder and whipped my head in to the ground. I popped my shoulder out (it comes out pretty easily from an old rugby injury) and knocked myself out cold. My room mate was behind me and couldn't see the back of the jump... so he hit it and saw me laying there while he was in mid-air. It spooked him and caused him to over rotate (so he says... he probably would have crashed if I weren't there). He put his hand down and broke two metacarpals in his left hand.
So we basically got 1.5 runs in yesterday morning before we had to leave for the ER. They at least gave us each a free day pass since we had already used one day from our 8-day powder passes.
I am sore as fuck this morning. I'm lucky I don't have to do any manual labor at my job or I would be screwed today.Last edited by TwoJ's; 02-01-2013, 05:37 AM.
