LASTRRUN Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Sep 18, 2001 Posts: 827 Location:	Posted: Jan 08, 2003 - 10:44 PM GMT yes Hart honeycombs. partically correct on Head/Durafibers. However Head did not market burafiber name. They wer called Head xr1s. What color were they? Graves were made in Newburyport MA.[addsig] __________ lastrun

LASTRRUN Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Sep 18, 2001 Posts: 827 Location:	Posted: Jan 08, 2003 - 11:17 PM GMT Graves made blue skis and some kind of red. Beats me on Hansons. They were horrible boots. Didnt they use wax to alledgely mold the boot to your foot?[addsig] __________ lastrun

Davev Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Oct 20, 2001 Posts: 1495 Location:	Posted: Jan 08, 2003 - 11:20 PM GMT Correctomundo, Hanson used to inject hot wax while you had the boots on - before they went to the flowpacks - once that wax broke into jagged pieces they were most comfortable - I remember the reddish Graves, not the blue ones tho [addsig]

LASTRRUN Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Sep 18, 2001 Posts: 827 Location:	Posted: Jan 08, 2003 - 11:25 PM GMT Those of us from the area would be insulted if people thought Newburyport was in NH[addsig] __________ lastrun

The later ones (WITH GRAVES IN BIG LETTERS) were the duller red finish. Theres a guy in Newburyport with a fence made out of them[addsig] __________ lastrun
