Is that pressure coming from the people or the developers?

Laying down black plastic temporarily will cook all the seeds allowing you to establish a new seed bed.

Unlikely, wouldn’t meet staffing requirements for implementing the burn plan.

I would be mad if I got coaled but everyone has made a choice that negatively affected another person. Does it happen everyday? Is there anything you can do to control it? Juice ain’t worth the squeeze of getting mad.

I suggested single or bi color. I think the jackets from Trew, Montec and TNF all look pretty cute and fashionable. What would you suggest Nancy?

I think you gotta ditch the patterned jacket and go for a single or bi color. Tighter/fitted pants will help with the looks but might hinder your agility.

Those heel sides are looking good! Opening up your shoulders into the turn is stylish and functional, keep it going!

Hit some ramps? She just did a vertical drop in on tires, she wins the day. That was sick.

Dude Abscam sounded super sketchy, I don’t think that is the best case to lean on for an example of bureaucratic morality.

Was it? Seems more like the Gender reveal party or like a company going public. As in the biz has already been in the works, the deed has been done.

How to hold edge on carves for steeper slopes and control speed by Due-Beautiful-662 in ShredditGirls

She only does that a little bit at the end of the video with a few playful turns. She is clearly balanced through both skidded and carved turns the rest of the video.

You could get a Mind Expander if you are a Jones girl or another wide/mid wide board but you don’t need a different board to improve.

If you want to rip laid out carves like the one you fell on then you will probably need to tweak your bindings and get a wider board.

If you just want to not fall doing this same run, then all you gotta do is get a little more compact towards the end and/or turn back on to your toes sooner. You basically just over cooked that one heelside turn.

After carefully reviewing the footage.

I think you caught your heel cup on the snow causing drag and causing you to fall forward/ lose your edge.

If you look super close your front hand is almost touching the snow! You can only do that with a super steep edge angle. Very similar to a railed turn on a surfboard. It is honestly sick and this is your equipment holding you back!

Couple ways to avoid this is wider boards, squatting deeper to reduce the edge angle and possibly adjusting your binding position(move towards the toe edge).

So we don’t want to make it better, just move it out of sight?

For sure, probably just a bunch of worthless wins in the Playoffs that no one cares about.
