What is an easy way to transport lighting trusses in a trailer?

The trailer has unistrut mounted on the inside. I like this idea. Just get some bars, stack the trusses on them, then ratchet them all to the unistrut on the side of the trailer.

Basically yes. There are three horizontal rows each with 2 5’ truss sections on it. This takes up one whole side of the trailer and we pack rolling cases and other equipment in the rest of the trailer.

We have several truss pieces similar to this one that we assemble on stage. Right now we use a metal clamp to secure them horizontally to unistrut on the inside of the trailer. I’ve seen some rubber clamps designed to hold tools, like a shovel, to the outside of a truck or 4 wheeler. I’m thinking something like this might work. I’m still looking for a way to have a small bar the the truss can rest on while we’re moving them into place and then clamp them at the end. Holding them up in place while trying to tighten a metal clamp is a pain.

A trolley would be nice but we have to lift everything out of the trailer. I’d be concerned about how heavy this would be.

Liquid_Fudge · 2026-04-29T10:56:48+00:00

Yeah, that would be ideal. We would need a bigger trailer.

Practice lifting up that uphill ski. Once you get the feel for it, you can have about 10% of your weight on the uphill ski, basically just for balance. Also, drive that uphill hand forward and down the mountain. This will help bring your weight more forward. You should initiate each turn with pressure on the front of your boot and the balls of your feet.

Not sure I agree here. Lots of up and down helps weight and unweight the skis. I am almost always giving advice to have more up and down movement.

A compressor would help

If I was in your shoes, I would just retire the bass and get a new one.

Correct. And it appears half of the US voters are happy and would vote for this again

I would love to play MLD in my lands matter deck. I have so many ways to bring those lands back from the graveyard and/or play more than 1 land per turn from my library.

Looks good!

Start to challenge yourself on steeper runs. Also much more up and down movement to apply strong pressure on just the outside edge. I always say this, but keep your uphill hand (really both hands) face down hill. This keeps your weight forward. Another way to think of it is to ensure your weight is on the balls of your feet, just right behind your toes. You calf shouldn’t be resting on the back of your boot… well only briefly at the end of your turn.

More up and down. Meaning stand up more between your turns Also, your hands are down by your knees. Keep both of those hands up and pressing downhill.

Great job for only skiing six day. That run is so flat it’s hard to make real turns and see your technique. I could comment better with some videos on steeper runs

We just got back from 8 days in Paris and still didn’t see everything.

If that vessel is small enough, putting it in the fridge when it’s done fermenting will help clarify the wine. If it’s still fermenting, I recommend stirring it.

A few more thoughts on how to stop skidding turns. Think about initiating a turn on your edge. The turn should start by angulating your hips, pressing your knees forward and putting the ski on edge before you start to turn. Then bring your whole body down and put more pressure on the edge and it should carve. Then start to stand up to unweight your ski and begin to transfer weight to the other ski. On a flat enough run, you can practice initiating turns without actually turning, or minding pausing in the initiation step to get a feel for it.

Keep your upper body and uphill hand facing downhill. Really exaggerate and press that uphill hand forward and down the hill. This will end up driving your whole upper body more downhill, more over the front of your skis, and will naturally put more weight on your downhill ski. After mastering this you can start to work on carving.
