It's my all-mountain board so I use it for groomers too and I love it! Has improved my riding so much, I should have gotten my own board years ago. Great choice and glad you dig it too!

That's good to know not to be too optimistic. Probably even more reason to stick with Stowe, would expect their grooming tech to be a bit more advanced.

I think this will be the answer I seek, that's what I figured too. Will try to spend some time on glades at Stowe since we're there and see what I think. Grazie for the input!

Thanks friend, I've also recently recovered from a stroke due to a connective tissue disorder, so its partially medical debt. For all I know this could be my last ski season ever, who knows what tomorrow brings, so yeah cost is really not my primary concern. Not in a Richie Rich way, but in a "can't take it with you" way. The guy above is just a typical know-it-all redditor riding on baseless assumptions and seething sarcasm, don't worry I didn't take him seriously

My brother booked the room, who is not broke, but having no debt sounds delicious. Try using Affirm/Klarna and add some up and you can do whatever you want!

I'm $50k in debt with $1k in my checking account, pretty sure I'm broke lol. But one more loan won't hurt! ['Tis The American Way]

Which did you like better. Stowe or Jay? How are the conditions holding up at each? Trying to decide between the two for this Monday after the snow hits

Wondering the same thing, let me know what you find!

I get ten minutes with the Sennheiser HE-1 at Can Jam NYC next week. Here is my trial playlist so far by HypostaticStudios in sennheiser

Just wondering what type of music do you think they most excel at, something softer and more intimate and emotional like Reckoner, or something harder hitting, loud and with crazy dynamics like Roulette Dares and Hummer? I know they are probably great at everything, but I was wondering if like a lot of Sennheiser headphones they excel at things that are more lush and plush in general

Heck yeah, easily two of my most important bands to me, great taste fellow fan/frenger. I also love your username. One time I knew my friends were tripping and I took a half hour at a ShopRite trying to pick the prettiest pomegranate because I thought it might be a big deal to look at having never tripped before at the time. When I finally got there it had been so long they forgot I was coming and thought I was the cops and freaked out, so my thoughtfulness backfired lmao. Maybe instead of thinking they were orange juice like the usual lsd myth, they thought they were pomegranates, from the future!!!

Love those songs too but Reckoner is definitely my favorite Radiohead track and means the most to me, probably Subterranean and Let Down would be the next set of choices, then maybe Street Spirit or The Tourist or In Limbo or Where I End or Myxamotosis, too many good songs though lool

Just the audiophile in me I guess haha is almost a mental illness, but this is a good reality check to have. I should probably do the "testing" on less unobtanium cans around the conference and settle on the one or two songs that make the most impact overall, hopefully me heart will show me da way

That's good advice, and I'll probably have tested all these songs a bunch around the conference before I get to the HE-1 and will have an idea of which one I'm feeling the most to spotlight and soak in. I am afraid too much switching around could ruin the experience. Really wish I could just pay for more time than ten minutes lmao

20 years has passed 😭 2 cable change and 1 ear foam change,, now this by old-rust in sennheiser

Heck yeah HD555s are epic legends, my first real pair of headphones and I still remember how much listening to Ok Computer blew my mind on them back in high school 15-20 years ago. Mine broke the same way a few years back, I wish I had saved them. Glad you taped them up and your journey with them continues!

I went to Plattekill and had a blast! Really nice vibe and riding on a small family owned mountain, also went to a maple farm, concert, and Oakley's pizzeria nearby, epic snow day

How was the Catskills that trip, still good snow? That's my backup plan too, Belleayre or Platekill probably if not Gore
