I'm wanting an all-ride board, deciding between size 160 or 163....
im 190-195lbs, 6ft tall, 12 boot size... intermediate freeride, beginner freestyle
Would it be easier to land jumps and do ollies with a shorter or longer snowboard?
shorter because there is less weight and resistance.
Reply:shorter. because they are lighter and more flexibal and will help you spin faster, and also enable you to get more pop when ollie off a jump.
Reply:shorter all the way!
Reply:shorter. shorter boards are more controllable and can spins easier in the air, but longer ones are more stable and stay up better is pow. for freestyle you want more control and to able to spin, so go shorter. i actually suggest something shorter than your range listed. i suggest a 156 at the very shortest and then like a 161 to max out. you also want a more flexible board for park so look into that. if you want all mountain. do like 158 through 163 and look for a board with mid range flex

What size Nitro MFM Bandera snowboard is right for me?
What size Nitro MFM Bandera snowboard is right for me?I am 6'1" and weigh 160lbs. My boot size is 11.
I am looking at the Nitro MFM Bandera snowboard and don't know if I should go with the 157 or 159 length (or something shorter) and whether I need the wide or non-wide. It seems that with my stats I might be able to choose any one of these options, but which is going to be optimal? I think non-wide is better, but I don't know if my boot will fit. I also don't know if a longer or shorter board is best. I mostly ride groomed runs and not deep snow.

Well, you don't need a wide board, you'll be fine there. But I would go with the 157, because you won't be riding in deep snow. It'll be easy to handle and turn.
Reply:I'm sorry to disagree with the previous answer, but you should absolutely look for a board with AT LEAST 25cm in waist width. It's not that your boots won't "fit". It's just that those size 11 dogs will drag on sharp turns or chunky snow otherwise. Additionally, you'll lose some toe/heel response since they will sticking out over the edges rather than being flush.
Your weight actually qualifies you for a shorter board, however. The whole school of thought on board length has changed over the years due to the popularity of park and pipe riding. Hell, I remember when we used to buy boards that reached our chins standing up.
A wide 157 will definitely float you in the fluffy stuff but keep you responsive in the park.
Oh! Also make sure you find the right amount of flex and camber in the board you want. Flex is obvious (how stiff the board is). Camber relates to "pop". Lay the board on a flat surface and look underneath. The less contact the middle of the board makes with the floor, the more camber you have. So, when you're riding and you start to lift into a jump, the board will spring more.
OK, I'm at work but I could write a ton more. Hope this helps. And pickup Transworld Snowboarding's 2007 Buyer's Guide.
Reply:Yes, the width is most important. I suggest at least 25 cm waist width. The 159 is the better choice.

A response for those who replied about my 13 year old daughter?
I have talked to her. The police have talked to her. Im not sure if you are all in the US, but I am in Canada and I have looked for boot camp. Her and her 3 friends stole my van for a joy ride a few weeks ago while I was sleeping and you know what the cops said...because there was no damage and they brought it back I cant press charged. She is going to drug and alcohol counselling, but she lies there. Home schooling...that would mean that one of us would have to quit our jobs and financially that isnt realistic. She wouldnt do the homework at home anyway. She is totally defiant. I am hoping that someone who has been through something similiar can let me know what they did. I have done everything I can except send her to foster care. Serious answers only please....I am truly reaching out to anyone who can lend some advice.
A response for those who replied about my 13 year old daughter?
I answered your other question. Sending your child away only proves in their eyes one thing you didn't want them and don't love them. by doing as i suggested in the first response it would prove that you do love them and they will get the hint fast when they are cut off of the contributors i speak from experience my 12 year old started that this year and i acted on it as soon as i found out that although she chose to be defiant her friends helped to peer pressure her decision uggg i just read what other had to say THIS IS NOT THE RESULT OF POOR PARENTING IT IS THE RESULT OF ONE CHILD'S DECISION AND THE PEER PRESSURE OF FRIENDS i have 3 other children that i treat the same and they all have come out well its just the one child that has the problem which i dealt with and so can the person who asked the question. making a parent feel bad doesn't help the situation some children are more daring then others which has nothing to do with what the parents do or don't do for them
Reply:WTF. I'm 13 and that's crazy. My mom would kill me if I stole her car. lol.
Im homeschooled. only my dad works. We make it out fine, try boot camp she deserves it.
Reply:I am Canadian as well. I have to suggest the "Tough Love Program". There is also a program called "Portage" in New Brunswick. What about sending her to military style school like King's Edgehill in Nova Scotia?
Reply:Hi, Please take Rene's advice. It sounds like you all are incredibly stressed, and the situation is getting worse. I can not imagine you will be able to work this out amongst yourselves at this point.
Don't pay any attention to anyone who says you were a bad parent, they do not know you or your daughter and what the situation is like there. You obviously care for her very much because you are on Yahoo trying to get any help that you can. Kudos to you!
I'll be praying for you!- dd
Reply:I work in a behavior modification program with 9th and 10th graders. We have kids as young as 6th grade (I just don't interact with them). Most of these kids have done the same things your daughter has--AND WORSE!
First, take her and your whole family to see a counselor. It's not just her problem or your problem, it's the entire family's problem. Maybe she needs medication, maybe she doesn't...that's up to the counselor. At the very least, you all will gain insight in how to cope with her behaviors and the proper responses to it from attending family counseling sessions. She will also learn that you are serious about wanting her to change not only for herself, but for the good of the whole family!
Next, find a behavior modification program. No, not a bootcamp!! Bootcamps are ineffective and have closed in my state. BMPs work because the kids come in and are given the choice to change and work their way out. They have to set goals and reach them. They have a strict set of expectations they have to adhere to and they are enforced with consequences. They are taught that their actions always have consequences. That might be a lesson she hasn't learned yet.
Make sure you back up everything the counselor and the folks at the BMP say. Too often, I see parents who bring their kids in and they expect us to fix them and raise them. When we need backup, we get the same old "song and dance" from the parents..."I'm too busy to attend a meeting with you", or "Not my child!" or worse--we never hear back from them after leaving multiple messages about their child and their behaviors.
It is not an inpatient program. Our program is an alternative high school program and the kids are home each night. We send home reports each week to the parents for their signatures and acknowledgements. We drug test (both alcohol and illegal substances) regularly and steps are taken if they have a positive test to get them into a drug avoidance program. We also teach them the same high school subjects they were taking in their mainstream school. I would hope you have something like this program in Canada. It's very effective and puts the responsibility for behavior where it should be--in your child's lap!
You definitely need help!! Your daughter is out of control, so take control and get her the help she needs and get the help you need.
Good Luck to you!!

Reply:i have a half sister. she is the same way. unfortunatly my dad lost her. she didnt die but she is nolonger part of the family. she lives in a different state, only calls on holidays, and dosnt even no i am 13. she still thinks i am 3 years old. i am sorry. but why dont u try an all girls bording school or a cathlic school and make sure u drop her off at school and make shur that there is a person with her all the time to make sure that she stays in school
Reply:i do home school and i totally hate it u can't hang out with other people your own age here.
i hate school my mum taught me this year and well we fought all the time.
Reply:Home schooling is a good idea, you dont have to make it permanent, but make her think it is, talk to her principal and ask if you could remove her from her classes but have all her work picked up by you or someone.. you don't have to quit your job, say you trust her to stay home alone..Take away all privilages.No Phone, computer, games, friends, nothing. Make a list of chores that have to be done daily like laundry and cleaning(mop, weep,dust, organize daily...make sure to keep up with it). After about 2 weeks, let her go out once with her friends, and maybe after a while allow a 15minute phone conversation a day, after chores are done that is. Be creative with it. after about 6 week let her go back to normal school, and you should see a change. I''m letting you know I am only 18, but I am studying adolescent psychology and have a 4.0 GPA. Hope I helped
Reply:Sounds kind of like how my friends were I was never that bad though. I just had a bad mouth on me, truant, and lied to my parents all the time, but this wasn't at 13 more like 14,15. I was late I guess. I grew out of it thank goodness. I had emotional problems that triggered everything I did, I was severely depressed, etc. the list goes on for me I was eventually hospitalized for my actions because my parents weren't watching me closely enough.
For you I'm wishing you all the luck you can get, I see the 13 year olds now and wonder how bad I must have been. Have you tried taking her to a psychologist like someone said above? Maybe things in her life are making her act out, while most likely it could just be peer pressure at her age and the normal 13 year old stage. Can she not just switch schools, or maybe a private school to get into a different crowd? At one point my parents tried this but in our area nothing was close enough and there work didn't allow it so I don't know your situation. Maybe try to spend one on one time together doing only girl things? It might create a better bond between you two and see if she'll open up to you since most girls at that age are really closed off to there parents.
Whatever you do don't give up, and stay strong! My mom has always said that the teen years were the hardest, she's already raised 2 boys but she said raising a girl was the hardest :)
Reply:I would get the child in to a Dr. Psychologist. Medication for calming her if deemed necessary. Sometimes foster care is good but, it isn`t a route any of us like. I personally don`t want a child to go there unless they are in harms way. Sometimes a different location helps. Sometimes the neighborhood is the problem. Sometimes it is the friends of the child. Going to a boot camp may be difficult on all. It does change a child totally. I`m not happy for what they did in boot camp, I have no clue as to what they did to them. My grandchild came back changed but, I wonder if it was for the better. He listens well. However, he didn`t come back able to hug or get close to as he was before it. He came back distant. Yes, he is slowly came back to kisses and hugs for family. Yet, you can feel the distance. I know we all change in time. The boot camp, I still have my questions about. What did they do to my boy? Why is he so changed? I don`t know. He won`t speak about it. Except they yelled at him alot. Screamed in his face. In his ears.( they knew he just got tubes in his ears) They made him break. Whatever they did.. I can`t say it was good. He always listened at home. His trouble was the school, %26amp; a teacher. The other trouble was me listening to Sally Jesse Rapheal. I told him when angry to draw. Like she said to. He did, and that is what got him in trouble. I pray you find help for your child. I can`t tell you what to do. Here we got a tutor to come in to tutor him for a while. One parent/grandparent had to be home during the hours. Times were hard. He`s almost 18 now back in school doing well for the most part. A decent young man. However, he always was a good kid. He is on medication to calm him, anger management. If he wasn`t in school, I don`t think he would have needed it. However, with peer pressure, we had to do something. Lexapro is what he takes. Good Luck.
Reply:Just tell her that she needs to straighten out or else your going to kick her out and tell her your not joking, if she still behaves like this really do kick her out or send her to live with someone she does listen to.
Reply:foster care the only thing left you migth not want to but you have to. its for her own good or send her away to a family of yours....
Reply:Don't quit your job and certainly don't home school. That's even more of an escape route for her to take advantage of. Here is my thoughts. Take everything away from her.I MEAN EVERYTHING. Take her to school and pick her up, rework your schedule and find someone to stay with her until you get off work. (i mean she acts like a convict, then treat her like one). In the mean time, I would do a search online for ALL GIRLS CATHOLIC SCHOOL. They dont mess around in there. See if you can afford it and consider it. This may be the last chance you have to keep her on the right road. You're the parent, so REMEMBER: TOUGH LOVE HURTS
Reply:simple logic. she is doing it because she's in the stage where she reached the level of not worrying because food and shelter, education , friendship and love is already satisfied(Heirarachy of Needs). congratulations she is now a very secured person ready on the next level to make a serious relationship to an opposite sex. but with a lack of wisdom and experience kind.
it's a normal reaction if family life is in very fast phase.
you got to slow down the process. cut the love, cut the education or food or shelter. depending on how she reacts. make her insecure at her age. show her you are still have an authority over her. by law and by blood
i know this sound harsh. its a real way of looking it into.
she is a living body it will adjust in order to survive and protect her life
understand what you'll decide, fear is a mental form of release out of incomplete information.
don't waste your money in counselling. they 're doing it out of money. i bet it just a temporary solution. you know better than those books, you have more expereience to your daughter than anybody else do it out of love. share it just to her.

Reply:Well, I have to be a little tough and say that is the result of poor parenting. You have spoiled her with a lack of discipline and inadvertantly taught her that the world revolves around her. You've got to toughen up, provide discipline when she does these things, and serious discipline. Nothing will change if you don't change something. But the real problem here is that because you haven't provided meaningful discipline to this point, it's very difficult to do an about-face...but that's what you have to do. You have control over her, you just have to seize it. Call the police when she doesn't comply. Spank her butt good, and let her know if she wants to call the authorities, she should be prepared to leave with the authorities when they come, (I'm not sure on the laws in Canada).
Reply:all girls boarding school
Reply:its called DISCIPLINE, something you obviously have never given her as a young child. she does something really wrong you smack her, she talks back to you, you stick a bar of soap in her mouth to wash out the filthy language. smack her, smack her, smack her again, and dont let her out of the house outside school hours. then humiliate her by picking her up from in front of the school, honking the horn and calling her name LOUDLY in front of the other students. then offer her the choice to change and you will stop doing this. simple isnt it
Reply:I would so love to help cause it seems rough on you %26amp; I understand cause you %26amp; your husband can't keep control on both so I don't know though cause my 14 year old cousin has the same problem except she licks girls pu**y %26amp; all kinds of other nasty stuff.
My aunt locks her up in her room,takes her phone n computer, then she comes in a lil bit later talks to her %26amp; then repeats the same thing over n over.
Finally she stopped!
Hope this works if you try it,god bless %26amp; happy late new year!

Reply:its called DISCIPLINE, something you obviously have never given her as a young child. she does something really wrong you smack her, she talks back to you, you stick a bar of soap in her mouth to wash out the filthy language. smack her, smack her, smack her again, and dont let her out of the house outside school hours. then humiliate her by picking her up from in front of the school, honking the horn and calling her name LOUDLY in front of the other students. then offer her the choice to change and you will stop doing this. simple isnt it
Reply:I would so love to help cause it seems rough on you %26amp; I understand cause you %26amp; your husband can't keep control on both so I don't know though cause my 14 year old cousin has the same problem except she licks girls pu**y %26amp; all kinds of other nasty stuff.
My aunt locks her up in her room,takes her phone n computer, then she comes in a lil bit later talks to her %26amp; then repeats the same thing over n over.
Finally she stopped!
Hope this works if you try it,god bless %26amp; happy late new year!

Snowboard size? Where to buy? I'm in socal and will ride BigBear/snowsummit the most with Mammoth occasionally
I have a bunch of friends at work that have been snowboarding for a little over 5 years. I am going with them to Big Bear by the end of next month and need as much help as possible. First off I need to know what size to go with length and width? I'm 6'0 190-200. Any particular model to go with? Whats the difference between cheap bindings and high dollar bindings? They just hold you to the board so whats the difference? Boots suggestions? I went to skidazzle last year and saw alot of sales should I rent my first time or just buy right away at skidazzle? What does it cost to rent the basics bindings, boots and a board? Any good reading I can look at online? What are some top snowboard online suppliers?
Sorry for the million questions I just like to be as informed as possible.
Thanks everyone!!!
Snowboard size? Where to buy? I'm in socal and will ride BigBear/snowsummit the most with Mammoth occasionally
wow, lots of questions. so does everyone thats new. your friends havent made suggestions? Judging by your size and height your probly gonna wanna be on a board thats 160cm. some where in that area altho it might be a bit tuff for a beginner. cheap binding Vs good bindings... tru both hold you to board but HOW WELL? cheap might break. i would say rent or borrow first few times so you can find out what you like and dont. Renting used to cost about 50 dollars.
Reply:Go shopping for this stuff with your friends because they will know what to get for you if they have been snowboarding this long. It's harder to tell just by knowing your height. Get a board that is about up to your chin but maybe a little shorter for you because you are so tall. When you first start out you dont need an expensive board. And the high price bindings are just preferences that some people like. Get a cheap pair now and then get a more expensive pair that will fit what you like once you are good at snowboarding.

Can you wear this to ride.....?
Can you wear beeches with jodhpur boots and half chaps?
Can you wear this to ride.....?
You CAN although why you'd want you I've no clue. Chaps are more often used when you'll be riding through scrub and don't want your pants to snag on something. The most practical thing to wear would be either jeans or breeches depending on what's more comfortable, some boots with a little heel for gripping on the stirrup. You might want gloves and a hat, depending on the weather, condition of the reins and how often your horse likes to jerk his/her head and pull the reins tight.
Reply:I often wear my half chaps when riding. They are really comfortable and durable. They are not allowed in the competition arena, unless they are proper gaiters and match the colour of the short boot well.
The garter strap is a strap which is attached to the back of long leather boots, fastens around the top of the calf, and is correct dress when wearing hunt boots. I think you mean the 'stirrup strap' that passes under your foot. I always cut them off if I buy Jodhpurs with those horrid things attached! You can buy elasticated straps, with a clip at each end, that hold your jodhpurs neatly over your boots, but these are usually only ever used in competition...
Reply:yer but it is better if u wear the right things
Reply:That's totally fine. I've ridden in breeches, paddock boots, and half-chaps before. Half-chaps aren't just for keeping your legs clean and unscathed in the brush. They help provide better grip against the saddle, especially over fences for the lower leg has a natural inclination to slide backward. So go for it.
Reply:that would be very uncomfortable. I wouldn't suggest it. you can get cheap elastic clips to keep the breaches on or Robinson's has a sale on horse wear. hope this helped.
Reply:you can ride in anything you want to. i ride in shorts and flip flops in the summer.

My son's motorcycle won't start!! (70cc pocket bike)?
It was hard to start, so I thought maybe it needed a new spark plug, so I took the old one out and went around town looking for a new plug. Nobody could find one that matched the old plug, so I looked online and ordered a plug from a pocket bike online dealer and put it in the pocket bike. It still was very hard to start, so I put the old plug back in and when I put the boot back on the plug, I guess I didn’t put it on all the way, so it was just sitting on top on the plug, but not pushed down all the way. It fired right up and it ran very well, even thought the boot wasn’t on the spark plug all the way. So he continued to ride it. Now when I went to start the bike for him this past weekend, I couldn’t get it started. The electric starter would not work. There is votage coming from the battery to the starting solenoid, but no voltage coming out. When you push the push button starter, nothing happens, no noise or anything. What might be wrong? Change the solenoid? Also......
My son's motorcycle won't start!! (70cc pocket bike)?
First check any fuses. This may be why there is no power getting to the solenoid.
The spark plug boot problem sounds like the spark plug wire needs to be replaced. But it could be a coil problem as well.
Replace the fuse (if bad), recharge the battery, and see if it will crank with the electric starter.
If not, then check the wiring leading to the electric starter motor. Best test is to remove the starter motor and hook it directly to a battery. If it runs, then there is a problem somewhere in the wiring on the bike.
If the starter runs after fuse check and battery recharge, then check the spark plug cable first. If a new cable does not solve the problem, then check the wiring to the coil, then the coil itself.
Reply:I have said it before and I will say it again, you get what you pay for!!!!
Plus this whole pocket bike craze is just lame. You ask questions here, in a motorcycle forum about a toy!!!!
Go figure....
Reply:You might try to clean the spark plug with paint thinner. It may just not be gettin the fire it needs, due to dirt and gunk. That is the only thing I can think of, right now. Rock On!
Reply:Battery maybe low, charge it then see what happens. It isnt starting because not enough electricity is getting to the spark plug to create an adequate spark for ignition. Replace the battery and charge it fully if needed, if that doesnt work then check the cable that leads to the spark plug, it needs to be tight.
The only other thing is that you should turn the throttle very slightly to allow some fuel into the engine, that will help it switch on though too much will flood the engine.
Reply:You buy junk, you get junk. As a rider, I have no respect for those things. Buy a real bike. EDIT: In my area those types of "scooter" have been made illegal. Dangerous on the roads and difficult to spot by other vehicles. For your son's safety, don't get it fixed, even if you can find someone that will try to fix it.
Reply:Check manual on spec's for spark plug gap.
You may have a burned spark plug wire and it may be arking on the engine instead of gettin to the plug.
Silanoid could be burned out. Also check silanoid fuse. Make sure all connection's are clean.
