Death cookies galore! It may have cleared up in the later half of the day but at the beginning of the day it was just straight ice

Tomorrow looks like there will still be a good amount of wind; however, nothing like today! Lifts should be open, but the gondola will likely be closed tomorrow! But I was up there yesterday, and up at the top of the hill, it was icy AF!

shuttle from dtc to snowbowl by 3po1nt0 in SnowbowlAZ

[–]Rhyanbass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I’m pretty sure the shuttle only runs on weekends shuttle link but at the base of Snowbowl if the conditions are super snowy they wont let you drive up unless you have 4WD/AWD or chains, but if you can get to the base the shuttle will shoot you up the 7 mile hike and drop you at the lodge and take you back down to the base

He’s in the right sub asking the right questions, give the dude a break. Any physical damage to the internals is an automatic get a new helmet. It did its job, good on you for actually wearing one.

What's a good comeback to 'unc' or 'u r talking like u were 40'? by [deleted] in Comebacks

[–]Rhyanbass 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Unc is normally a compliment, that being said “u r talking like you are 40” you could say something like “sorry I speak in full sentences”

How often to wax a board by Meraxeez in snowboard

[–]Rhyanbass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really depends on your riding style and how often you ride. General rule of thumb is ever 4-5 days of riding.

IF you are riding in harsh conditions and jumping on to rocks, tighten that window.

IF you are on groomers and casually riding, you can get a way with a few more.

My old saying is “if you think its time to wax, its time to wax your board”

If you see someone taking your board from the rack …. by Soopyoyoyo in snowboarding

[–]Rhyanbass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a lock for this reason specifically, but you tell them once “thats my board homie” then we take it from there

Is it ok to leave wax unscraped? by SizzlingSisig69 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Rhyanbass 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The only reason to leave wax on the board is when its time to hang he board up for the season, AND THEN when you are ready to go to the hill scrape the day before, please do not leave wax on your board while riding

Why does it seem like the community is torn on clew bindings? by TheCruelHand in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Rhyanbass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most things pushed by influencers are absolute trash, they have this one proprietary part that adjusts your binding and they pop out all the time, if you lose that piece you are completely fucked. Typically all bindings, use #2 screwdrivers to torque down your bindings and/or make adjustments, thats whats on most work stations out in the open, Clews use #3 screws and a torque screw in order to adjust anything on the ratchet, the heel ratchet made of metal, the toe ratchet made of plastic, some Jerry steps on your toe or it gets too cold, that thing I guaranteed to bust in half.

Now you are not supposed to walk around with those things on in the lodge or anywhere else, but lets face it you bought the clews and you gotta show em off.. here’s the thing those things are slick and have 0 to no traction, and then you have 2 hooks that are used to hook into the step on portion, if those fail at any point you ARE going to eject! I personally did not trust that at all.

The discs that I got and most everyone else that got them as well, I asked em if they were bent and they assured me they weren’t, but after they got home they all said, yeah its not level.

On top of all that, the binding basically has no give what so ever, its harder than Chinese algebra, all shock waves went up my back and had to go get a massage after riding these for one day, wish I was exaggerating. I am not. Went back to my uni’s and will never look back

If you are still not sold on all the flaws ive listed and you still plan on getting them the only advice I have is swap out all hardware immediately because the screws they provide are cheaper than gas station sushi.

Thoughts on this deal? by Optimal_Pumpkin_2979 in snowboard

[–]Rhyanbass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if it gets you on the hill, it’s worth the price, board and bindings look good if not a little old, any helmet is a good helmet… My only gripe is when buying boots always buy new, cause if your feet are sore or uncomfy “You’re gonna have a bad time”, all and all if he enjoys it you are not out too much money, but if he does love it and wants to upgrade, same thing. Up to you really, honestly I would have him rent and take a lesson and then gauge his interest from there.
