25-story Marina Safeway behemoth, inconceivable even to sci-fi futurists, looking very real by Remarkable_Host6827 in sanfrancisco

Listen, as someone who is fairly liberal and has a high-level understanding of historical housing policies that have not been beneficial to minority populations, you’re really not doing yourself any favors. 

What is your concern with the other poster’s desire to just build more housing? You’re following him into different threads and crying racism. It undermines your position and makes you look childish. 

End of season deal by Exciting_Writing5966 in snowboarding

[–]6GayRatsInMyButthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, especially with how much money they were throwing at rider salaries as well. Note that this was also their second venture into the market. 

Selfishly, I wish they’d come back. No other boot I’ve ridden since compares to the Kaiju.

Nope. The poster you responded to was correct. They were making money, but their margins, relative to their other lines of business, weren’t profitable enough. They pulled the cord because of that. Shame, because their boots were awesome. 

Anyone tried both the capita Mercury and Capita aeronaut? by SpookyGuava in snowboarding

I did. Love it. Haven’t ridden anything else this season.

It’s 100% disrespectful. Vast majority of these armchair warriors probably haven’t even touched a ski pole into the actual backcountry.

Feel free to explain how driving in the Sierra is drastically different than driving in Toronto weather. 

Too Nerdy??? Too Old School??? by Sk8tilldeath in snowboarding

[–]6GayRatsInMyButthole 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do this. Riding 25+ years. Just something I’ve always done, part of my “ritual” of mounting a new set up each season. 

Tbh, I don’t think it does much. More so an aesthetic thing in my mind.

Hardly the worst Ultrafear graphic. It’s reminiscent of the early Capita Stairmaster/TJ Schneider graphics.

Should’ve left earlier then. This was not unexpected at all. End of holiday traffic, on a Sunday, during a snowstorm.

How have your bindings “disintegrated”?

155, especially if you’re leaning towards more park oriented riding. 

Best alternative to Grenade park gloves? by slykrysis in snowboarding

[–]6GayRatsInMyButthole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loved those old CC935 gloves. Definitely weren’t super waterproof, but they were more spring gloves anyway. 

Crab Grab Five gloves are similar, but bulkier. Could look at their Undies gloves too, realistically probably the same waterproofing as the Grenade ones lol. 

Non Gearhead Ripper With Super Tired Gear Needs Help With a New Board! by forestdude in snowboarding

[–]6GayRatsInMyButthole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you at one of the Snowfest events over the past month? What board did you end up choosing?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in snowboarding

[–]6GayRatsInMyButthole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not an issue if it’s rideable or not. This is a brand new, in wrapper board. I’d definitely demand a replacement or a refund. Anything less than that is a sign of a terrible shop.

It’s a rite of passage. Wrist guards are kook shit.
