lil nipples, studs, diamonds made by Bakooda, Da Kine and others. Unobtrusive, hardly noticable traction where it is needed w/o some big honkin rubber thang messin with your boards topsheet. I rock those, or none at all by butting my back foot up against the rear binder..

dont get anything from 'demon' when i hot waxed my board i noticed that 1 of the studs wasnt where i placed it... i tried to move it and it pretty much slid on my board. the heat from the iron heated up the adhesive and made it loose.. i ended up pulling it off..

Hey bro, just a heads up here.. If you can feel heat from the Iron on the topsheet and it caused one of the studs to fall off, you are using WAY TO MUCH HEAT ON YOUR BASE FROM THE IRON!!

This could damage your boards base and or cause delamination.

Keep the Iron moving at a pace that melts the wax as you move it , but it sounds like you are using too much heat and or leting the iron stay in one place to long

If you can feel heat from the iron on the topsheet?? danger Will Robinson..!! no good :confused:

I have to disagree. Snow sticking during certain conditions to the board on the top and trying to clean it all off, even if done foot still slips on the top of the board. Pushing it against the binding might be adequate at best getting off the lift but turning to go a ways on a flat start to the beginning of the slope I prefer a stomp pad for traction to control the board a little more.

I got a new board this season and was contemplating putting one on but I loved the way it looked so much I tried going my first day without it. By just pushing my foot up against my binding I was totally fine, I definitely wont be putting a pad on this board.

I don't do much maneuvering outside of my binding. I usually get off the lift, bend over and strap my boot in and take off down the hill. I don't stop or turn unless someone falls in front of me. I don't know what the lift exits will be like out here in Oregon, but I hope the hill isn't too far from the exit. :D
