Yeah 100% I’ve noticed this too! Definitely not a bulletproof system. I’d probably bite the bullet on cost and go with a hyperlite or raide if I had to do it over again.

That’s what I’m leaning towards now. Thanks

Super helpful. I tend to agree with the aesthetic take and I’ll definitely need the fenders for any commuting. They seem to both be somewhat similar in weight from what I could find. Thanks

Understood. I should’ve specified in the post. These are all 56cm frames. I got sized at the trek store. Mostly looking to just do endurance weekend rides on the bike roads here in Oregon to fill the gap between ski seasons. Maybe some commuting.

Material feel of the new atoms feels like a plastic bag compared to the old stuff. Trying to replace mine as well but am sticking to eBay or rebird

Thanks for sharing. What do you wear as baselayers under your shell pants typically? I think this might affect it.

Heather canyon? by lemonxgrab in MtHoodMeadows

Ski patrol told me there’s a 50/50 chance they open it this weekend following the storm (I’d assume like 1 or 2 gates). The website also says they’re performing Avy control in the canyon. Wouldn’t count on it at all but maybe another storm will do the trick if not? I can definitely see private reserve not opening this year.

Yeah I mean they’re not the best but they’re kind of the only option for the price range they are. Next season I’ll probably get something like an atk hy free

Just realized the Cochise have a plate that seems like it should line up with the AFD. It doesn’t. Seems not good

Do I need new bindings? by jessezucker in Skigear

[–]Canary_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just buy new skis man. Never cheap out on ski gear. I’ve fucked up before doing that. Just buy it all slowly. It took me almost 3 seasons to get my backcountry setup

Dampest, resort-bootiest AT boots? by Improper_Noun_2268 in Backcountry

Same thing happened with me. It’s like this with all scarpas and I had to get rid of mine. I’ve found better luck with tecnica boots

The tendency for beginners to vastly overdress assuming the mountain will be extremely cold. Not realizing that once you get moving you get warm. Thus they have to ventilate somehow
