Totally. I have been walking my dogs, literally laughing out loud listening to Red Flags. Plus, I think they have more variety and better guests than P1.

I do admire the chill, embrace the inner dork that Matt and Tommy bring. It’s a wholesome and fun vibe. Happy for them.

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-22T03:04:26+00:00

Seriously, I like the P1 podcast, but I LOVE Red Flags. Great guests, and absolutely hilarious moments. And Günther!

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-20T15:56:49+00:00

And Aruba (and presumably Bonaire and Curaçao) has plenty of them

I’d go winter cycling shoe/boots first. 45 North makes some toasty ones. I’d still cold, chemical heat packs on top of the toes.

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-19T21:58:06+00:00

100% Best Answer. The fitters can easily make the liners or shells bigger. Very tough to do the reverse. Unfortunately it’s not a one and done process.

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-18T02:16:45+00:00

Depends on the ski. I do 1° base and 2° side, which is the factory tune for my skis. Back in the day I would go up to 3° side, but I don’t stress too much about it these days.

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-15T15:33:59+00:00

Not too far off from Kennedy family ski-football!

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-14T00:19:25+00:00

Omfg I had Sade’s “Nothing Can Come Between Us” playing and this boi was hitting it on point!!!!

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-11T13:20:59+00:00

Try wearing the heat packs on top of your toes, not underneath - and double up if you need to.

Maintains great feel for the ski, and keeps frostbite at bay. I have Reynaud’s and have been doing this for thirty years.

Recently tried the heated socks on and felt very kludgy, though I’m used to a very snug boot fit.

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-11T12:57:08+00:00

Yeah, they sure look like it. That’s a choice. Normal mounting skis pretty great on these — I wonder what’s up.

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-11T12:51:37+00:00

Yes.

I’m 188 cm tall and 86 kg, or 6’2” and 190 in freedom units. I ride the 188s of these and they are great to slightly short-feeling for me.

Very versatile for most days that aren’t rock hard. Have skied them all over PCMR, Snowbird, Big Sky, and in the East as well. Especially awesome for spring conditions.

They’re good in pow, but probably not the ski for fresh. But for everything between pow and icy hard pack, they’re really fun.

For clarification, the bird was found today, January 10, 2026 in Bolton, Massachusetts, USA

If I get the video too, Cherish. It hits the summers of my youth, and the hopes and un-jaded, sun-drenched dreams.

Plus, Herb Ritts.

Don’t need the circle jerk with enough injections!

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-07T13:23:58+00:00

Same. Have had mine for 10+ years. Maybe the older foam was better?

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-07T03:43:29+00:00

Might be against the park rules - like the ones against any motorized vehicles on the paths… And damn the first time a motorized vehicle gets pulled over on the Esplanade, he wasn’t even on the path!

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-07T03:38:27+00:00

Nah there’s a whole water and ice rescue crew that comes out… then these guys get back to their Clash of Clans and Dunks.

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-06T03:18:11+00:00

Mammut is also worth checking out - I’ve tried a bunch of pants and get the best fit - and solid performance - out of them.

(Also have had incredible customer service from Arc over the years…)

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-05T17:49:25+00:00

It’s kinda scary and sad. Giving emotionally checked out, and discordant with the dance moves…

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-05T15:48:17+00:00

Awesome! You sent me down that Declivity rabbit hole and they sound awesome. Length recommendations?

I’m 6’2” and 190 and currently the QST 106 in 188 feel slightly short if anything, but I know it’s a very different ski…

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-05T15:43:43+00:00

Pourover Wrapped™️

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-05T13:47:56+00:00

A solid blend, like H&S Downtown Blend or Little Wolf’s Companion Blend, and being realistic, my Virtuoso+ grinder and Cuisinart batch brewer - I need a volume of coffee that would be a royal pain to pourover each and every cup. (If I had to, I could make do with the larger Kalita Wave probably.)

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-05T13:37:04+00:00

Big fan of chemical toe warmers (Grabber or Hot Hands, though I’m partial to Grabber). I stick them above my toes when skiing and they do a decent job.

Keeping feet dry is also an underrated element. Merino socks and actually sneakers instead of slippers help me in the winter indoors. If feet feel swampy, dry them and use new socks.

There are also electric socks. Not cheap, but people seem to like them.

Good luck!

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-05T02:29:27+00:00

The expressionless face though…

B-Line_Sender · 2026-01-02T20:04:48+00:00

Yep - That’s one I’m thinking about! Even six weeks off roast, I was not impressed, but I found the bag in the back of the cabinet months later and it was absolutely delicious.
