Opinion post: The current crisis makes me question my beliefs about firearm laws. I was raised in the Midwest and support guns. I think firearms are neat and target shooting is a lot of fun. Personally I feel safer with weapons, but I don't need to have them to feel safe. Martial arts can do...

Hello all, So yesterday at Arapahoe Basin (Saturday, 12/12/15) at around 3:30pm, I was skiing this pillow line-esque/somewhat cliffy (I hesitate to call it that since all the drops were like 5 feet or under) region off skiers right near Pallavinci. I don't know the exact run or how it exists or...

Alright, let me start out saying that I don't want to do this nor would I ever do this normally. But I am currently stuck without my winter set in CO looking to drive i70 and all I have on my WRX are some Sumitomo HTR Z3s. I need to get to a ski resort though, and I'm a driver for a few people...

Hi, So I got an epic local as a senior gift from my family for CU this year, and they gave me this printed out receipt thing and told me I'm supposed to take it to any Vail resort window and they'll take care of it. Most of my friends just did theirs online and got their actual passes in the...

Preferably one of the newer, 3-anttena, longer range (50m?) models.

I'm a college kid at CU. Where's the cheapest spot to mount a pair of skis there?

Alright, I have an '05 WRX sedan (not hatch, no OEM rails) that I'm trying to put a Yakima rack on. It uses the Q-Towers and horrendous Q-clip system. I cannot install the rack on my WRX without my window hitting the clip. It doesn't rub it much, but I cannot close or open the door without the...

These skis have been sold! This is probably one of the greatest skis I've ever owned. It's surprisingly nimble in everything, floats over EVERYTHING (I've tried falling forward in deep and they kept me up), and is the most stable ski I've owned. I drop WAY larger things on these skis just...

I'm needing to find a long range 434MHz antenna to receive images being transmitted from practically space to plug into an SDR. I can't seem to find an antenna. We are launching the payload that will transmit these images quite soon, so I need to find one fast. Help would be greatly, greatly...

Hello all! I recently had the honor of spending some savings (saved since I was a wee little lad) on a used 2005 Blue WRX. I'd like to get a second set of wheels so I can have a summer set and winter set. I'm curious if any of you know what the maximum wheel size (diameter? Width? Offset?) I...

Hello all! I have two Louise Plus Cards that our family won't use this year, and am curious if anyone would be interested in buying them (super discounted). These have three free days at Lake Louise, Revelstoke, Schweitzer and more. It does some other nifty things too...

Haha look at dat tail butter

You know, I have to be that guy and ask.....why is the rear-entry boot not popular any more? I had a pair when was little, and looking back they seem to make so much more sense than top-entry... For starters, the foot enters the boot more naturally, creating less stress and strain on the foot...

Got these a while back, but never used them. New, in the original box. Smith Phenom, Olive Huntsman frame with Ignitor mirrors. Pretty nice goggle. Has the goggle bag included. Asking $50, plus shipping. Bumps give +K! Here is a video of a cat in a shark costume riding a Roomba chasing a...

I searchbarred, I found the "sleeping in my car" thread hoping for help, but alas, none. And nothing else relevant. I'd like to start winter camping, coming in via ski tour(Jeffery's woot) and doing a night or two. I found a -40° mummy bag for $160, but was wondering if it's overkill. Is there...
