Lucky!

will the old hardware work with those plates???

Sick..... can't wait to see them online... time to buy my xmas gift!!

No it will not. Also I usually ride all the way out. With the new base plate being so narrow my boot is in the same location with the screw one in. The boots are 1 lbs lighter then last year. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by ynot on August 24, 2007)

proho, its completely new hardware. Doesn't go over the outer edge of the plate. You will need the new specific hardware.

Wats the main difference between the Zeus and the Answers? Trying to decide which to pickup once they are out. I can see the answers are cut a little lower, but thats the only obvious thing <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/493166.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR> <BR>(Message edited by fbricard on August 24, 2007)

answer has 3 holes on the top and is a little lower then the 4 holes on the Zues. Not sure other then that. I will check <BR> <BR>(Message edited by ynot on August 24, 2007)

things like this make getting slingshots tougher... i say it every time but its true! <BR> <BR>how is the ct hinge?

The heel cup is sweet. It actually pivots with the back so when you step in it pivots forward and locks you in. When you drop the hinge you are going nowhere. At least not unless you eat Sh_t then they are cake to get back into. The one piece rear peice is also real nice this year. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by ynot on August 24, 2007)

Difference of Zues and Answer besides height and number of lace holes are this. The Zues has a molded TPU piece that inserts into the tongue to make it stiffer. The Zues will also be available in open toe for you die hard's.

Rumor is the 08 slingshot will have standard binding mount holes as well as the 4 hole pattern of their boots.

Nick you are right about the slingshot bindings. Thats what im hearing at the shop I work at.

Tony... I am diggin the new setup... I look forward to getting on that same setup! time to retire the 06 marius!

Gordon The 08 is the best board I have ever ridden. I thought Trevor did a good job on the 06-07 But the 08 is sweet.

those boots are sick. When are they due out in shops. I may just have to get some of those since i will be getting rid of my 07 setup at seasons end. Do you know if the Marius Platty is going to be mostly black like the transcend platty? If so i am def gonna sell my 07 marius for one. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by wondermike on August 24, 2007)

No the Marius Platty is 99% Carbon Fiber Silver on the top with just a small logo on the side same colors as 2007. The new Faction is way sick. It is all black on top and the top is covered in a nylon type fabric mesh with a logo that looks like billet(sp?) Aluminum on the left side, in the middle. <BR> <BR>I here out by Oct <BR> <BR>(Message edited by dadthedriver on August 24, 2007)
