    I've noticed nor cal never pulls over for tint. Ours are pretty dark, not sure the number accociated with it but you can only see a shadow of the passengers.

    I don't think limo is reasonable. One of my friends had it and you couldn't see anything besides lights through it at night. No idea how he drove like that.

    I used ceramic, dont need to go as dark and never get pulled over. winshield is also tinted and you can feel no heat but cant tell its tinted. expensive as fuk but worth it until i got my first winshied chip a few weeks ago.

    Yes. But just carving when it's crowded. Not that hard-boot contrived douche carving though. Also some tuck knee and a little bit of hand dragging. If I had a ponytail, I would dip it in the powder on heel side turns. I'm old skool.

    You're so descriptive! I can see it now! Stoked.

    What's "hard booting"? I've never heard that term but somehow I feel like it applies to me. I'm kind of a jerk on the mountain I realized.

    I have 50% ceramic on the fronts. Light enough that LEO's don't look twice.

    You're not a hard booted. Hopefully not a snow plower...

    Hard booters

    Really only good for corduroy.

    The ponytail thing was an inside joke. Years ago, friends and I were heckling a spandex- clad hardbooter, with a pony tail, that was making some overly contrived turns. My buddy yelled, "dip the pony tail! In the snow!" The guy actually did it on a heel side turn.

    We were dicks back then. Sorry.

    Damn. That's some 80s shit right there. I don't think I've ever seen anything like that on the mountain and I've been riding for 15 years minus a year break or two. The dorkiest I've seen were step in bindings. Actually I think that's what jay had when we first started dating lol. Normal boots and bindings is like the first gift I gave. him I think lol.

    We don't bomb anymore, don't have the stamina anymore lol.

    20%. Never.

    But if you drive like a dick, stay with 35% or higher.

    Nice might have to pick that one up. My father in law is the king of fires. Makes one every night at their mountain place. He has more wood cut than he could ever burn, it's awesome.

    Same here and a wide Never Summer. Tricky in the trees but glides down the mountain. Too bad it will just sit in my garage this year as I doubt we will make it up.

    Whew, got my rear brake lines done. Went much easier this time than the fronts despite harder wrench accessibility, didn't even need vise grips. Springs and shocks next :thumbsup:
