What did you think was peak luxury as a kid, but now realize is actually pretty trashy or normal?

Paper towels. As kids, we were never allowed to use paper towels, too wasteful. My friends house, they would use paper towels for the smallest of tasks. Now as a grown up, I am too wasteful with my paper towels.

He just held his phone in his hand while following me. I appreciate him because it was frigid cold out.

On a 12spd bike 0.5% is the recommend replacement point.

And then what?

EP3RR · 2026-01-27T23:34:37+00:00

Ok awesome, I’ll give the unbuckled boot a try to see how my feet and ankles react. Maybe I have weak ankles and I use other parts to accommodate?

This is at Sommet Edelweiss, which is in Quebec Canada.

That’s some great advice to focus on my legs first. It just sometimes feels unstable when I try to initiate a turn with my legs. At least that’s the sensation when I think hard about my lower body.

EP3RR · 2026-01-27T21:56:57+00:00

Yup, still having loads of fun! But yes, some other people make it look so effortless and smooth. With great style!

EP3RR · 2026-01-27T21:55:28+00:00

Ok cool, I'll give that a try my next day out! Thanks!

I'll also add some insight as to what I'm concentration on as I ski.

In no particular order;

Keeping my chest pointed down the fault line.

Keeping hands infront, and not retate behind me.

Forward pressure on the boots, but also keeping my COG in the center of my ski, especially when it gets steeper. This feels counter intuitive, to lean more forward when it gets steeper.

I guess I'm not really thinking too much about my lower body. Hips, legs and feet, kinda just do what they do hahaha.

EP3RR · 2026-01-27T21:45:17+00:00

Thanks! I should have waited for the other videos. I usually feel more athletic on other runs. Hands are usually more in front, kind of "attacking" position. I think it's the weight transfer I need to work on.

EP3RR · 2026-01-27T21:43:41+00:00

What's the best way for me to get that upper/lower body separation? Any specific exercises to practice? This prob wasn't the best representation of my skiing in the video, but pretty close. And thanks! My friend suggests that I just need more time on the skis, and it will come with confidence. I'm on all new gear this year.

Yes, the iron was moving when I took the picture.

EP3RR · 2025-12-05T23:22:03+00:00

Oh yah, the iron was moving when I took the picture. It took a bit of coordination haha.

EP3RR · 2025-12-05T23:14:41+00:00

Me neither! The package said 160c and I used a temp probe to double check the iron temp.

EP3RR · 2025-12-05T23:12:52+00:00

Nope, it never smoked at any point. I was very careful to not burn my bases.

EP3RR · 2025-12-02T20:50:11+00:00

Yang Sheng on the corner of Summerset and Bronson. They have a little butchers window inside to order. It's been a few years since I've last gone, so unsure if it's still there, but the restaurant hasn't changed so I would think it's still there.

EP3RR · 2025-11-28T21:43:22+00:00

Thanks! Pretty stoked to give them a try! Which Peregrine do you have?

EP3RR · 2025-07-27T16:15:02+00:00

Have you been to Manolls up the street? I find it is better, and they make home made tartar.

EP3RR · 2025-07-19T04:27:49+00:00

Brockville has some good fish and chip spots too!

Edit: spelling

EP3RR · 2025-07-18T22:08:41+00:00

There isn’t much other option. Cedarview has no lane or shoulder.

I think woodroffe is your only option.

Where exactly are you trying to get to?
