yea.... the name of the game in skinning is, the larger the footprint the steeper the slope you can ascend.. so w/ only about 1/2 the ski actually making contact w/ the ground (and putting pressure on the skin -- which creates grip w/ the snow) you would struggle going up anything very steep
out of everyone that i've seen online, people selling on NS, TGR, are quality used shit,
also, the best store, store, would be Evogear, in the used gear section, they'll usually come w/ binders, you can sometimes find some sick deals
Yo, I'm looking ot help out my roomate who's a big fuckin dude, he's a football player, 6'5 240lbs. wants to start tearing it up... Anybody got anything that they'd like to sell for pretty cheap that's somewhat long?
I'm 6'2, and got the same pants beg. of last season, I have Lg, but prob. should've gotten xl, b/c i tend to sag em to get em how i like em... but crazy warm pants, look sick too
the dude is 5'10 145, JPs are a little big for your weight, you don't need that much underfoot, i'd say they'd be a little too big 4 you, being they only come in the one size,
i wanted these, but what he's looking for (450-500) is too much for the fact your getting w/o liners, used boots, w/o the warrantees, other tongue or sole insert, i dunno,
I fuckin absolutely HATE the 07 Fuji graphics, you should just get the 06 fujis b/c theyre only like 199 now, and are soooooo much better than invaiders.....invaiders suck asshole... and that is me being nice
yea, the big's tail is higher than the tip, so even if you are a little farther back, you can still ski switch fine, go into shit switch fine, and land switch anywhere but BC or in pow fine
