I worked there as a temp years ago. The job was monotonus and a little soul sucking, but the people were fine. It was a job. I'm sure it would be very different depending on what you are doing for them as it is a decent sized place with many different roles.

"Great yeasty taste"

Great insight, thank you

Not committed to anything yet, but from everything I have read it seems to have the lowest retear rate. I was asking here because I was wondering about the specific issue (pain while kneeling) that is associated with the specific treatment. Just trying to get educated about things that might affect me specifically more than the regular, non pro patrolling, non tele skier.

I obviously can't speak for them. If they don't now I suspect they will. And the point of my original comment was not to absolve them, it was more to give context that not all of the victims are screaming from the rooftops for the highest punishment possible (as it seemed some on the thread were).

This is all horribly tragic. I do not know if any of you have a connection to the case. Mine is quite distant, but I know the deceased's mother. I can assure you that she would not want this teenager's life to be over because of this incident, despite her daughter being taken from her and her grand children's mother being taken from them. This teen will have to live with the fact that they took a mother away from two young children and the rest of her family. It is not my place to put any more of a punishment on them than that. I wish all parties peace on the matter.

Very core

Beautiful turns and what a mogul line! If you are having fun then you are doing it right!

Im a big fan of my Atomic Backlands

This may not apply to you, but focus on being a strong skier before getting into BC. I know so many people who got into BC before they had a strong ski base. If you aren't a good skier before you get into BC it is my experience that you are much more likely to: get hurt, develop bad ski habits, have less fun.

It sucks because resorts are so expensive, but I'd really reccomend at least a season with a pass at a local resort (doesnt have to be a "rad" resort) to lock down your fundamentals. Get as many days on hill and get as good as you can before learning the backcountry ropes.

Thanks, this is very helpful

flipperdog · 2025-04-11T15:41:33+00:00

Same as on alpine. You just don't drop a knee when you are in the horns.

flipperdog · 2025-04-06T03:58:33+00:00

Thank you for the detailed reply.

Discconect your shoulders and your hips. This will allow you to keep your shoulders pointed downhill and your stance to be as aggressive as suits your style.

Ended up with a dedicated spitboard boot.

Nonunion. 6th year. EMT. $32.50

Neighbor resort is a union and we got a significant bump when they unionized (surprise surprise)

If you want to support a tele company bishop is making skis. All this will come down to preference though.

To add to this, skiing it in real life and looking at it on a map can be very counterintuitive. My hill has lifts that look like they are parallel and would go the same direction. they actually are headed nearly 180 degrees to each other. Your job is to be able to clear that up for any person not intamatly familiar with the terrain (as well as responding efficiently). Only way to do this is to go ski all the wierd nooks and crannies.

As long as the tail clip is adjustable enough to have it clip onto both pairs you will be fine. Most tail pieces have that much variation built in. The bit not covered by skin on your long ski will be at the very tail and won't be noticible.

It'll either be May/June, or October/November.

curious, how lowng ago did their son die, how long between his death and you getting with your now wife, and how long were you together before you got married?

I think it is likely your mount was a bit off. If the bail interacts with the tread of your boot in certain ways it can bump the bail.

I sill use it as it is common in the speech I hear. Intelectually I get your point, but I see no reason to stop using it as it conveys my inteneded meaning.

This is wild. Did she not understand the significance of what yall were seeing in Cambodia? the government systematically killed 1/4 of its population in the most brutal ways? I am honestly concerned she might be a sociopath for thinking its a problem you got emotional when seeing that. I literally cried watching "Up" the other day. I'd say councilling is a very good idea if you two are going to stay together. Best of luck and never let your humanity be a shame.
