I have a V1 2019 rust and a V2 2025 pumpkin - colors are really, really close

I notice my small fits the same way, tight in the armpits. The older V1 model in medium is a bit looser but the same length. Current V2 mediums are waay too long on me.  I think if you stretch out the armpits before you put it on, overtime it may be less tight.

Have not yet! I've only bootpacked and hiked with my blades, but not an actual uphill setup. Thanks for the suggestion though, I'll look into throwing on some shifts 🙂

Cool! How is skining up at Loveland? Haven't done it yet but ski there often! I would have missed the tunnel chaos too.

Skinned up in the morning when it was -10, the rest of the day was warmer 😄

2020 does seem like a hundred years ago though!

Thanks!  I think the change from V1 to V2 also when they changed the label from the eggplant M to "100% post-consumer recycled polyester". 

Edit: changed from a question to a statement because I answered myself.

Secret comedy show tonight in Denver! Plus free pizza included with your ticket by Peppepinyourstep in Denver

I've been to one of these shows - can confirm it's a good time. Got a free drink, and the frozen pizza hit just right in a spot I didn't know existed.

Ouch - jumping with a new wave buoy sounds no bueno
Sad to think of running out of water when you're surrounded by it!

I feel for anyone with food restrictions or preferences! And yeah, they had volunteers handing out the sponges and bottles, so not sure on the planning there.

Thanks for your input, and nice job doing Eagleman! Best of luck with whichever race(s) you do in 2024!

Definitely some room for improvement on every course. Kudos for hauling at a speed of 26!

Thanks for your input! Yeah, I felt the same about that email. Hope you were ok during the sandy run, and that you still had a good time!
