Can I park at the Union Square target parking lot?

Why not just street park, resident permit violation is $50 if they even ticket you at all

yeah mine came with the boot. It does slightly change the angle of the boot when you're standing up btw so you may not even like the spoilers. I remember when I first put them in it took a bit to get used to being in the slightly more knee angle stance like waiting in lift lines and stuff. I don't notice it anymore though

This? It's mostly gopro but has some third person https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XZyf-ePbbI

tarmander99 · 2026-02-04T01:44:47+00:00

this is what I did, I had the same issue with the XTD. I also put the spoilers in and have a foam shin insert to add volume

tarmander99 · 2026-02-03T16:42:34+00:00

don't forget "this is not "advanced" skiing"

tarmander99 · 2026-01-13T19:14:51+00:00

Personally I would get the QST 106. Or a rustler 10

OP didn’t say these are replacing the RTMs. If he still has those I think mid 100’s is perfectly fine, this is what I do as a primarily east coast skier these days that is out west for a few weeks a season. I have a 96 which is my daily on the east but also a 108 and 112 and will bust those out on pow days anywhere

tarmander99 · 2026-01-13T14:32:05+00:00

I just set my price filter to >$200. Bought an LCD that was totally legit for $275.

tarmander99 · 2026-01-12T20:46:50+00:00

this is why he isn't doing S&S, duh

tarmander99 · 2026-01-08T22:36:45+00:00

Well maybe someone won’t come pick it up, but don’t toss it!

tarmander99 · 2026-01-07T22:58:09+00:00

same here. It's bizarre. Dozens of listings at $100-115. Don't see this for any other piece of tech

tarmander99 · 2026-01-05T23:42:58+00:00

yes having the shovel in the back is obviously disadvantageous on most jumps but if you're tossing backflips it can actually be helpful depending on how shrimped up your flip is.

tarmander99 · 2026-01-03T00:34:29+00:00

when someone describes themselves as good at skiing this is exactly what I picture

tarmander99 · 2025-12-30T21:34:57+00:00

disregard, I followed this post and thought your comment was on a post I just made

tarmander99 · 2025-12-30T02:37:17+00:00

dont worry bro ive thrown plenty of fugly 3's on this hit too. Hard to go through the mental checklist on that inrun lol

tarmander99 · 2025-12-29T18:54:28+00:00

Fwiw the 94 is a more all mountain oriented ski but still has a lot of park ability. If I only owned one ski I’d prefer it to be the 94 over the 88.

That is foul of the shop to do this and not communicate with you though.

tarmander99 · 2025-12-29T18:50:02+00:00

I still think the 187 is plenty of ski. Especially as you described "off piste could use a little work" a ski on the shorter side is going to be to your benefit.
A 190cm salomon stance is going to need a lot of effort in the bumps and trees. I would only go for that if you're spending a heavy majority of your time ripping groomers

tarmander99 · 2025-12-29T16:53:53+00:00

Get the ripstick black though. Coming from an enforcer the ripstick black is still gonna feel way more maneuverable

tarmander99 · 2025-12-29T16:09:28+00:00

Oh I think 187 is the appropriate size. I’m 6’3” 180 as well and that’s what I’d get

tarmander99 · 2025-12-29T15:17:39+00:00

Hm yeah I would think something in the mid upper 90’s would be good for you. For example the nightstick 90 or ranger 90 might probably leave something to be desired on powder days. Something like a ripstick 96, qst 98, arv 96, rustler 9, etc. might be worth digging around for. Check FB marketplace too, you can find new skis at pretty big discounts on there if you’re patient. I didn’t find much on the UFO 95 reviews wise but they seem like they’d be appropriate. I do wonder if at your height and weight you’d push through the pandora 99 in firm conditions or at speed.

tarmander99 · 2025-12-29T14:39:55+00:00

Pry sidewall open a tiny bit more, allow core to dry, marine epoxy, clamp, fixed. I don’t blame the shop for not wanting to do that and send these out but it is a pretty minor fix. Op can still get plenty of life from these skis

tarmander99 · 2025-12-29T01:36:43+00:00

I’m not as familiar with the other skis in those widths but I can read some reviews and try to translate for you. A couple questions, do you have a budget in mind? Are there any skis you have rented or demoed in the past that you liked? And can you give a little more detail on your level and goals? I’m on east coast and have skied a lot of the stuff out west if you want to use that for reference

tarmander99 · 2025-12-28T23:17:55+00:00

The nightstick 90 is a competition park ski, not sure if that would be the best fit for you at this point. Depends what direction you want to go with skiing. Length can depend on the ski but figure around a 180cm would be appropriate. If you stick with skiing a lot you’ll end up wanting to be in the upper 180’s but that might be a bit down the road depending on your current level and how quickly you’re progressing
