Ultimate Ski/Snowboard Interest thread!!!

Send some of that fresh dust my way. Tired of park days because everything is skied out.

 

i'll see what i can do. i'll be skiing over there thursday-tuesday. wouldn't mind some good colorado snow

 

Great powder pics!!

 

We here in the PNW have been getting CRUSHED with new snow!

And not the usual wet/sloppy crap we usually get. Cold, light, puffy snow. I went to Alpental (near Seattle) yesterday and did not have a single run (inbounds!) where I didn't have long, untracked runs.

Stevens Pass resort got 32" yesterday and last night. Crystal Mountain is getting clobbered and even Summit at Snoqualmie, which usually sucks, has received over 2 feet in the last week.

Sitting in the bar afterwards watching everyone walk in covered head-to-toe with the biggest shit-eating grins on their faces is the best feeling in the world.

 

I'm smiling just thinking about it.

 

just waiting on a new home. should get skis tomorrow and mounted friday

 

looks like we got 8" last night and lake effect dumping as we speak. I'm putting on the magic underwear and heading up for a morning of freshies!

 

got the new full rocker for 2012 today. getting mounted tomorrow and should see first action saturday. hopefully we get some new snow to test them out in.

 

Hell yeah man those things are tight had those on my skis until today......


when i got a brand new set of Line Sir Francis Bacons and Duke Markers!!!!!

and new boots Dalbello Il Moro T's

 

Nice dude, checked those out at SIA, the Gypsies right?

 

yes sir. i've skied the 180 and these are the 190's. looking forward to skiing them. i really like the keeper. it's my favorite ski i've been on in the last ten years. as much fun on the groomers as in the pow

 

Right on, hopefully I get a chance to try out the Shaman's soon, the Cali rep would not stop talking those up, soooo much sidecut for 110 underfoot.

 

the shamans are fun and a lot of people rave about them but they haven't been right for my usual habits. i'm a much bigger fan of the keepers and always rode the nomad's before this year. i'm not sure what i'm going to go for next year. this year i'm using 189 keeper every day and using 181 nomad for ski base. based on how i like the gypsy in the 190 vs the 180 will affect my quiver for next year. i think i'll get a keeper 178 for inbounds/trees as the 189 is a little long for anything but untracked trees.

for next year i'm thinking about picking up 2 more pairs of AT bindings and running a 5 pair quiver vs 3...

Gypsy 180 & 190
Keeper 178 & 189
Nomad 181

 

Same set up I have. Fun ski but a little too short and soft for me. Kinda wish I went with the prophet 115s.

 

If you haven't seen this......you must see it....take an hour and watch it, it will change your life

Are you sure those arent water SKI's

 

FYI, epic day today. 2 feet of new snow, skis cleared at 9am. Bluebird deep freshies all day. Unemployment rocks.

It's been a pretty awesome start to the month of March up here. A couple of pics from Thursday.
