Buy some titanium heel plates so that your boots slide nice and make nice white sparks!! (see avatar). :YEAH

 

titanium is supposed to spark green..

 

Titanium is not supposed to spark green. It sparks bright white. My dad's been a machinist 30 years, I've worked with him 10 years, and we've never seen a green spark in our lives. Do you see my pic? Do those look green to you?

 

how do you have them attached to your shoes? also, wanna sell me some titanium skitch plates? my attempts to make them haven't been very succsessful, i made some outta steel but i have no idea how to hang them on my boot

 

They are attached to my shoes using rubber anchors They are serated rubber inserts; I drill them into my shoes and then drill the titaniun plates into those. That way I can take the plates off in about 10 seconds whenever I want and not have to deal with straps and all that stuff. At this time I only have HEEL plates available, and they are $70 plus $5 shipping. Soon I'll be exapanding to a full sole version so you could safely ski right off the back of the bike. IF you want to order or want mo info e-mail me at NemesisMFG@hotmail.com.

 

you stud..

 

cool, that was gonna be my other question cuz anybody can just nail a piece of steel to a boot, i just wanted something that came off when i wanted. i'll keep your name in my hat cuz i dont have any more money to spend this month, but i'll check back w/ you when i got some scratch
