    I have a powder question

    Sounds like you should take a lesson.You'll find it makes a big difference. At least don't hand out bad advice to others.

    Aspen

    If you buy in advance online the price is about $76 per day. You have the choice of three great mountains Snowmass, Ajax and Highlands. Buttermilk is filled with park and pipes. On a powder day don't fight the locals at Highlands go to Snowmass where you can ski pow all day long because most of...

    Whose been screwed by Anon.ymous or h3oproduction???

    Just curious what the judgment was for? If you had a contract that spelled out $2 for every disc sold but he didn't sell any but a couple of hundred, how do you end up with thousands?

    I have a powder question

    no..you don't lean back slightly, minimally or any other way.All leaning back will do is tire you out because you'll be unnecessarily using your quads.

    Fat skis

    You list your home mountain as Stratton. Not exactly home to great powder skiing. You should look for a ski with a waist around 80. You dont need wider than that even for deep snow( I've been dropped out of a helicopter before with old skinny GS skis and had a great time) and a ski with that...

    SHIN BANG

    Shin bang is a bit of a misnomer. It is not caused by the shin impacting the cuff of the boot but rather caused by the muscle being stretched. It is then tender and any pressure against it hurts like crazy. The muscle gets stretched by being in the back seat. I'm going to assume you have...
