almost everydayfatties
Posted: Mon Feb 02, 2009 8:14 pm
I've been out about 14 days on the everydayfatties now.
they are great for everything except ice!!
Due to the lack of snow here this year we have lots of (uncharacteristic) ICE
Carving on the groomers they work great but when it gets really hard they tend to skip (chatter?) when hard on edge.
Pretty sure its a combination of torsional flex, binding flex, boot flex, and old knees.
They are 107 under foot after all, and my knees are still the original 1963 model.
I took the elan M777's out last sunday and they didn't fair much better (slightly less chatter)
I'm still calling them everydayfatties but this year it seems they are not "perfect" everyday.
