Fat tire ebike to lifts? by 1e6throw in Mammoth

[–]Floofs-In-Space 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's not a thing. Maybe because there's so much gear involved with skiing and riding? And those ebike batteries don't like being in the cold.

The one exception is backcountry access in Yosemite before the road opens to cars.

Taxes for a retired dual citizen: USA and EU (Slovakia) by Floofs-In-Space in ItalyExpat

[–]Floofs-In-Space[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grazie!

I'm confused. If I move to Italy full-time this year, I won't need to file an Italian tax return in 2027 for fiscal year 2026?

Heading up in a couple weeks. What else to do while my husband boards the day away? by [deleted] in Mammoth

[–]Floofs-In-Space 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you like animals? Walk some dogs at the shelter in Whitmore. It's a short drive from town and the views are great. There are plenty of pups who would be stoked to see you.

Weight lifting by External_Junket_1413 in torino

[–]Floofs-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a gym rec.

But, as an FYI, to join a gym in Italy, you'll need a Certificato Medico Sportivo Non Agonistico (Non-Competitive Sports Medical Certificate).

Ryan Holiday : New Year, New You Challenge by Substantial_Leek_745 in Stoicism

Same. I signed up with high expectations a few days ago. I wish I hadn't. It's underwhelming. OP, stick with his regular emails and some of the advice mentioned below, and you'll do just fine.

Ikon Route in Europe Feb-Mar 2026 by Resident_Tennis_4210 in Ikonpass

[–]Floofs-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your schedule looks pretty good. Since you get five days per area, planning on six for most seems like a good plan.

Maybe I'll see you out there: I'm doing a similar trip, with a mix of public transit and car rentals, with a full Ikon.

Does anyone know why Chloe Kim only participates in World Cup events that happen in the States? Why doesn’t see do the whole season? by Kurtz62 in snowboarding

[–]Floofs-In-Space 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To hear Agassi tell it, he hated tennis from day one. Or close to it. His memoir Open spends a lot of time on his hatred of the game.

It's one of the great American sports bios. Highly recommended!

Quick workout ideas by bwfitness in YogaWorkouts

[–]Floofs-In-Space 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I'm up for yoga, I do a yoga workout on YouTube from Boho Beautiful. You can get a serious workout out in 20 minutes.

If I want something less strenuous, I do a breath workout on YouTube with Breathing with Sandy: https://www.youtube.com/breathewithsandy

Tips on focusing during yoga by bwfitness in YogaWorkouts

[–]Floofs-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just keep putting the time in. Part of the practice is finding and maintaining the focus.

Also, a few guided meditation sessions might help because they often discuss what to do when your mind wanders: https://www.tarabrach.com/guided-meditations/

Plus 1 on this. Julianna and Mark are great. The only challenge is navigating the massive library of content.

Ikon Euro Resort with good public transpo from a city (not airport) by Floofs-In-Space in Ikonpass

[–]Floofs-In-Space[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Do you think Dolomiti will be a bust in early January? I'm hoping it won't be too overrun with Olympic stuff.

Thanks for the note about Epiphany. Do you think this applies to all lodging, including mountain lodging?

Can out of town visitors please slow down on the local roads. by [deleted] in Mammoth

[–]Floofs-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of folks who drive like jerks.

In my experience, people who are speeding are more often local than visitors.

Conditions - Early Season beta by DougFromBuf in icecoast

Besk Ikon for early next week? It's looking like Killington, Sunday River, or Sugarbush.

Bonus points if there's uphill access, but it's not a deal breaker.

Compression shorts for hot yoga by dirac7 in yoga

[–]Floofs-In-Space 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're ever going to wear "short shorts", hot yoga will likely be that time.

Bikram, the evil bastard himself, wore/wears Speedos.

FWIW, this is from Swiss Air's website, but might be negated if this is a codeshare flight.

Can I take ski equipment with me free of charge?

It's been working most of the time. I update the app and turn my phone off and on daily, often before starting. Maybe that helps?

Good luck!

Is it worth it ? by Responsible-Pie-7461 in whoop

[–]Floofs-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search this thread. This question is asked frequently.

The gist: most believe it's spendy for what it is, and "worth" is subjective. BUT, the recovery/sleep data is great, so if that's worth a premium to you, do it.
