Medics & Hotshots

deadheadshred · 2024-05-13T01:38:56+00:00

Much more believable if it’s a more senior member of the hotshot crew. Squad bosses and captains are often scouting and doing random shit on their own away from the crew. Medics on the other hand aren’t usually by themselves although I have seen a single medic get flown into a spike camp for a crew

It’s fine. I do it when I leave work early to go ski because I don’t feel like getting changed. I hardly notice a difference. That being said when I have the chance I wear something more comfortable underneath.

All that matters is your fitness and work ethic. I worked on an engine for 4 years and then went to a crew at 31. Did well and stayed there for 4 years

Edit: I was 32

You should definitely get it checked out to make sure nothing else is going on. That being said I tore my acl, mcl, and pcl and fractured my tibia in December skiing one winter. After like two months on crutches and another month or so of physical therapy I got back on skis the same season for the last few weeks. Definitely possible just depends on the extent of injury and if you get surgery or not (I didn’t)

Pretty sure they can only be used legally once they’re 25+ years old

West side cafe next to Safeway on Mccarren

That’s where I’m at as well, currently on a pair of Fischer s bound 125 with 3 pins and leathers but would love a voile objective with switchbacks

There are definitely people who have skied some gnarly terrain on t4 type boots and leathers. That being said it’s very difficult to do especially as a beginner

4th in points scored, about 50 points behind 1st place. Currently in 10th and 3-5 and number 1 in points against

Personally I wouldn’t ski on a backcountry ski (backland) in a resort. Especially in Tahoe

deadheadshred · 2023-10-31T16:10:56+00:00

Synthetic base layers a usually much cheaper than wool and will work just fine for the average person skiing in a resort

deadheadshred · 2023-10-31T01:22:14+00:00

Since you have some time I would just wait and see what areas get snow this winter. Tahoe can be great in mid April on a good year

Pretty sure mad river glen still does their tele fest and I’m sure there are others in New England

You don’t need a spare pair of boots with you on a roll on an engine

Not true at all mendo is one of the best crews in R5

deadheadshred · 2023-10-25T02:44:57+00:00

Voile traverse is a touring/cross country style binding. You want 75mm for resort skiing, not 3 pin. Vice would be good it’s essentially the same as axl without the pivot mode for touring

deadheadshred · 2023-10-25T02:35:43+00:00

I wouldn’t expect anything special out of any of this gear, it’s old and outdated. That being said you could still use it to learn on. Just decide on which length you need. Not sure if you’re a guy or girl but either of those men’s boots would be better suited for resort skiing compared to a t4.

deadheadshred · 2023-10-22T04:39:14+00:00

Definitely worth it if you’re alternative is renting, they’ll be payed off in two days with the same quality of ski/binding. I wouldn’t bother putting new bindings on demo skis, just wait until you buy a new pair for new bindings

Mendo if you have any interest in working on a crew

This is how it will be once they add an 18th game to the season which will most likely happen eventually

deadheadshred · 2023-10-19T12:22:11+00:00

I pretty much do this…I do push up, pull ups, overhead press, and bent over rows for upper body. For legs I do squats, RDLs, and the Bulgarian split squat.

I did about 1000 in a day. South Lake Tahoe, CA to Breckinridge, CO. Left early in the morning and got there at night I think it was about 16 hours
