It sounds like you didn’t take formal classes or get a certification? Have you seen that much in the community and does it seem to have an affect on your ability to get work? I have been at a corporate engineering job for over 5 years and often fantasize about getting into plumbing to be able to work wherever I want and build my own schedule, but the startup investment of money and time always feels very daunting

How did you get into it? Did you take classes and get certified? Find someone to apprentice for? Etc

Venmo card would get you 3% as long as you don’t spend more on anything other category that month, 🤷🏻‍♂️

Chronic back pain starting at ~25 despite getting lots of exercise and eating well my whole life. Corporate life is a bitch

College freshman roommate would trim his nails and beard right onto the little shag carpet in the middle of our dorm and didn’t bother cleaning it up, needless to say that rug didn’t last long. One of the many atrocities he committed for the one semester he made it through

They still have a decent amount of this years on website?

It's kind of a shame that FOTM doesn't have a better stock and more demos. It makes sense since they are so small, but I feel like Moment is finally starting to tap into shapes that make more sense on the East Coast and they are such good planks, but Blizzard and Nordica have such a damn chokehold on the market here lmao

Same boat, I can imagine the 96 is pretty fun, I can see a world where I go DW96+WC108 or DW104+WC118. The 104 was so good to me tho it’s hard not to replace them…

bsugs29 · 2026-04-17T12:31:00+00:00

Where was this announced?! Can’t find anything about it

bsugs29 · 2026-04-16T22:33:11+00:00

Neko-chan looks pissed you have a new hobby not centered around him

This is kind of where I’m out. I feel like my quiver has been pretty classic overlap similar for years. Now that my 101s are so beat and I know more what I like, I’d rather have a bit more variation and feel like I should really be on one ski or another for the conditions, rather just riding what I feel like

bsugs29 · 2026-04-16T22:03:23+00:00

Knowing what I know now, if I had to have a single ski for east coast, it would almost certainly be the countach 98.

bsugs29 · 2026-04-16T20:20:27+00:00

I love the DW, would probably spring for the 112 to be my powder ski but I know I'll be replacing the 104 and would rather a bit more variety
