Is there an upper limit to width, underfoot, to which technique would be sacrificed to accomodate stance? I wonder about this 'cause the Made'N is (only) 108 mm, but the Prophet is already at 130! You'd start looking like a cowboy at high noon... the next steeze? -------- Demo days allow all...

Skinner skis are better on ice because the steel edges are closer to the centre of the boot and consequently more of your mass can be applied directly on the edge in a turn. The problem with fat skis is that in order to get a similar edge angle, you have to tip them over farther, which puts your...

Probably because he had to be straight for the comp - which he got 2nd place in. Tanner wants NORAM points so he can qualify for a US national pipe team to compete in upcoming FIS comps. Yep, you read that right!... -------- This is Whistler, I ended up getting my ass whooped by Jon - I fuckin'...

You said that you do a lot of rails. Don't get the Candides. The base repairs would be expensive because the material would require full base welds instead of simple p-tex drips. -------- This is Whistler, I ended up getting my ass whooped by Jon - I fuckin' hate that guy - he always wins. -...

Sidecut: 113/79/106 Length: 180 cm Radius: 21.25 m Denser core, stiffer, and less cambered than the 1080. Not as much pop off of jumps BUT a lot more rebound energy out of the tails so it switches edges quicker. Great balance on spins. Very stable at high speed - no chatter. Fastest twintip...

This may be just semantics but, I think FAR more riders were let go/released/not re-signed, than left on their own accord. It's clear to me that Salomon wants a COMPETITIVE Teneighty team. If you're not competing, hurt too often, etc. you're out. Exception being Candide who was considered too...

I find the S-LAB's the nicest riding of the bunch. Give them a try, they might reaffirm your faith in Salomon. Are you sure about the wood in the Cusson's? I'll dissect mine after I'm done with them to end the speculation. -------- This is Whistler, I ended up getting my ass whooped by Jon - I...

First, as a so-called "older" skier who rides twins, let me say: get over yourself. Did it ever occur to you that the skis might be good somewhere other than the park? For me, the key to twins is their versatility. I can CHOOSE to go into the park, slide rails, ski switch, hit jumps, pipe; or I...

OK, this same thing just happened to me. Jesus! NoPoles can you remove the METAREFRESH tag from the PostReplya.php4 file? I do not see the need for this here, as it is disruptive to replies more thoughtful than: ^word, you suck, etc. -------- This is Whistler, I ended up getting my ass whooped...

^ Go to a competent bootfitter to have that looked at. You could have too much pressure on the nerve on the top of your foot from the 2nd buckle. i.e. your arch may be too high for the boot you're wearing. -------- This is Whistler, I ended up getting my ass whooped by Jon - I fuckin' hate that...

Weed suppresses messages from the pre-frontal cortex. This is the part of the brain that predetermines risk and potential outcomes from decisions or actions. i.e. Remove its influence, and you remove fear, hesitation, and doubt. Tell me THAT's not performance-enhancing? -------- This is...
