    Dates and kissing???

    How many of you push for a kiss on the first date? Or do you wait or... (I bet I get 5 comments explaining how I should pee in their butt, thanks NS 15 year olds)... Anyway, what vibe should you go for? I am asking for a friend.

    M searching F/M/Cat/Other-Taos Ski Valley

    Yo yo, looking for someone(s) to ski with. I enjoy lapping West Basin, High Line Ridge, or Kachina. Happy to play ski Ninja and hoping for a few folks to do the same... Also, I am the best skier on the mountain and fully live by the game of GNAR.

    Suggestions for a big mountain in bad snow ski

    I am 5’ 9” and about 155 pounds. I am looking for a big mountain ski that can handle crap snow. I am looking for a ski to handle icy/crusty conditions on fairly steep terrain at speed.

    How do you prepare for FWQ events?

    I am interested in competing in a FWQ 2* event. How do folks prepare for this? My current approach is to ski similar runs to the event venue in the morning and then work on tricks in the park in the afternoon. I try to pick various lines and ski them continuously as well as pick small drops and...
