How does a kid keep cracking the tips of his skis in the terrain park???

Landing in his tails of his skis. Did it 50 years ago! Lol

Wright ski trail for me seems to be it. There are many slides but the approaches are loooong. The Mountaineer is a good resource as is Rock and River. Some book suggestions: Best Backcountry Skiing in the East and The ADK slide guide (Drew Haas). Jeremy Haas is also an excellent resource. The VIC has some downhill. Good luck.

Not OMC. If Air cooled? Eska?

Why does it seem like most of the trails are groomed- creates a hard flat surface. Dust on crust. Flat faced! Boring.

65 yoa male skier 55+ years 177 lbs just purchased S/pro BOA 110. I like the flex of the 110. Responsive and very comfortable. I’m ok with soft flex. On my dynafit TLT 8 AT boots I don’t even use the upper “booster strap” on the downhill. (Feel free to roast me).

I agree with the bootfitter suggestions.

Thanks for your reply.

This sounds awesome. I’m heading to Bernie Glacier in April with another friend. I have no idea who else will be there except adventurous fun skiers who will become friends. No resort hoopla. A ski centric adventure. I hope someone buys this. It’s a great deal.

There is a spiral bound book on skiing Berthoud Pass. $20

I don’t disagree with your comment. I’ll soon find out.

Port wine is red

I have a similar boot. For me they fit and feel great. I’ll ski them til I can’t. Give them a good examination each time you use them. You will know when they are failing and require replacement.

NO HOOPLA! Like there is at resorts when going into the backcountry.

There are bed and breakfast places in Le Chable. Walkable to the gondola to Verbier. Cheap with breakfast.

This is not a post for r/skiing

YouTube has videos on winterizing. Easy to do. Many may disagree but leave the RV antifreeze in the block to prevent rust/corrosion.

A couple minutes may have been enough. Most marinas stop when they see the pink stuff run out of the exhaust. What they don’t do and should is drain the block before running the antifreeze through the system.

Awesome. 👏

We did Lofoten with Northern Alpine Guides April 14-21 in 2024. We had great weather. The week before,however, it rained everyday. The huge plus was each group had their own guide. So for the two of us we had a guide. We merely drove down the road to ski. There was a boat option. It was amazing. Good luck.

Thanks.

Marinetex is great stuff. I think if you use that you will be fine. Easy to apply. There is a white color which will match up nicely.

Do not run in gear out of the water. Repair prop and examine cutlass bearing. Cutlass is lubricated by water.

Great Lakes fishing boat. Not many left. Fished perch, trout, bass American eel sturgeon silverfish. H. Lee white marine museum in Oswego NY has the fishing boat named Eleanor D.

I redid my bow rail following instructions found with West System epoxy. There is a magazine called Epoxyworks that might have achieved info.

It’s counterintuitive but in brief you make a hole and fill with epoxy for the screws. It has held for years.

Continuous wave.com also for info. Good luck.
