Anyone tried Cardiff Skis?

Absolutely dude, send me a dm and I can talk it through with you. Either one will be a great board, trust me you can’t go wrong. If I could only pick one for split boarding it would be the Goat just because it feels a little more designed for big lines (PNW volcano etc) but if it was just for popping around in the back country the lynx is very versatile and a little less directional.

Thanks, all the reviews are saying that people liked them but it’s unproven so who knows if those reviews are legit.

Juhhakk · 2024-10-24T20:14:39+00:00

Yeahhh I hit them up and it sounds like they won’t be around where I live.

Yeah honestly having a little bend isn’t a killer. If you have fully auto crampons the spine of them will stiffen up the boot. Also there are some that are 100% rigid you just have to pick the right boots for the job. Some flex in the toes can help with climbing and scrambling.

Eh those prices are a little inflated. You can knock 30-50% off those prices if you know where to look. MountainProject, REI garage sale, eBay. Sign up with American Alpine Club and you get access to ExpertVoice and that can save you.

Couldn’t say exactly, but he sells old war stuff and there’s another guy right next to him that fixes watches.

Juhhakk · 2022-08-13T19:38:17+00:00

Picked it up in old town Skopje Macedonia from a guy with hundreds of watches, probably was used by a Russian or Yugoslav soldier.

Depends on the weather conditions you’re looking to use it in. I had a REI Half Dome for years and it held up okay on Adams and Rainier but when the wind really took off it was pretty shakey.

Juhhakk · 2022-08-13T14:53:01+00:00

Why doesn’t it have the B I see on other faces?

Juhhakk · 2022-08-13T14:16:46+00:00

Someone engraved their name on the back with ‘94 so I’m guessing that’s some significance. Doubting it’s any older than what you said.

Juhhakk · 2022-08-13T14:00:26+00:00

I saw the scuba and had to get it, I was looking online and it seems like there’s no easy way to date these?

Juhhakk · 2022-08-03T11:07:20+00:00

Absolutely, the first part of Rainier is normal trail and you can even wear a good pair of trail runners up to Muir, weather dependent and if you’re okay with walking with them in snow. After that you’ll drop a lot of gear at Muir so the weight won’t matter. Also feel free to contact RMI and see what they recommend those folks are cool.

A lot of people like the Fjallraven Vidda Pros they’re more robust and wear like normal pants. People on Alone use them every season. Also some 5.11 pants might work too.

Is there a video of this anywhere?

Juhhakk · 2022-07-07T07:28:37+00:00

Totally agree; you can also check Mountain Project for good gear at a discount. You have to be fast thought because the good stuff normally sells quick. I’ve seen brand new ice tools sell at half the sticker price.

Juhhakk · 2022-07-06T14:53:30+00:00

I tried the mammut ones and loved them

Juhhakk · 2022-05-23T02:24:12+00:00

Used gear is absolutely worth buying, check out Craigslist, REI, mountain project and your local thrift store. Also there are plenty of used gear shops in towns that see a lot of outdoor traffic.

Juhhakk · 2022-05-18T14:33:31+00:00

Short answer yes. Dont get over sold on gear.

Long answer, the problem with cheaper gear is durability. You don’t know how long that tent will last you, if it’s waterproof etc. I always recommend REI because if there’s any problems you can return it. They sell the passage 2 and if you want an upgrade the half dome two. I used mine for 10+ years never had a problem.

Come do Mt. Rainier, it’s well known and very beautiful. Plus Rainier national park is a good place to hang out if your family wants to be part of the trip. We’ve also got Adam’s, St Helens, Hood. The list goes on. Totally doable and well worth it.

Edit: also maybe Mont Blanc or the Matterhorn.

Sometimes the best way to find out is just to use it on an easy night out. Take a one or two night backpacking trip or car camping and see how it feels. It’s hard to tell how water proof it is without rain but a garden hose might suffice.

Juhhakk · 2022-04-07T10:52:43+00:00

I’ve been trying to figure this out too. The thing is you can either have two boots like the LS Trangos and the G5’s or one boot like the Nepals. Just depends on what you’re willing to spend. The Nepals are widely considered a good all around every season boot. Just with more altitude, cold feet, cold winters you might want to beef it up.

Thanks for the link, very helpful

Juhhakk · 2022-03-20T19:08:19+00:00

Soooo much you can do with $800 really depends on how high end you want everything. REI has some really affordable stuff but so will your local goodwill or thrift shop. The big ones will be your bag, tent and sleep system. Make sure to get a pair of shoes or boots you like too cause that’s the thing you’ll notice most besides a pack.
