    School me on tech toes and binding compatibility

    Please educate me on the ins and outs of bindings and boot compatibility. I'm planning to mount up some shifts in the next couple of months and was researching tech toe inserts for my current boots, Salomon Quest Max 120, which I may or may not replace. Do I understand correctly that running...

    Multi-resort passes Ikon, Epic, Mountain Collective

    Am I the only one that likes having multiple options on a pass that's reasonably priced? Perhaps it's because I grew up skiing Tahoe and all the hills are crowded on midwinter weekends and holidays? I was on the Epic pass last season and am happy to give that up because Heavenly blows and...

    What's the deadest forum you belong to or lurk on?

    It's super slow around here. I used to frequent a diesel VW forum that was so dead sometimes there would be days between posts.

    Weight thread?

    Any use for a weight thread here at NS? I know there's one on tgr but I don't use that site much and the cross over even in touring skis probably isn't that great. I weighed my new skis 2017 4FRNT Kye 110, now the Uptrack Col just for fun and: 2017 4FRNT Kye 110 181cm = 1886g and 1928g, stated...

    These:https://www.evo.com/outlet/alpine-ski-boots/salomon-ghost I don't need these, cover actual shipping costs, offer trade? Slice of pizza? I could use an old pair of goggles that aren't huge. **This thread was edited on Feb 8th 2018 at 3:12:51pm

    Any Denver area people familiar with foothill ski life?

    http://shop.foothillsskilife.com/ I'm interested in buying a helmet from that site. It's not alarmingly scammish but more just amatuerish, I'm wondering if it's legit. I'll probably call or email and gauge what kind of response I get but wondering if anyone here know what's up. Also had some...

    Attack 13 adjustability

    I'm getting around to mounting my skis and at the same time thinking about sizing down a shell size on my boots from 26 to 25, bsl 306 to ~296. If I were to mount the Attack 13 so they're adjusted out completely would I have enough room to adjust down a shell size?

    For those of us who don't live within walking distance of a lift, what do you drive to the mountain? Or probably more appropriate to this forum what does mom drive when she takes you to the ski hill? I have a 2017 Tacoma double cab "work truck" with a bed top mount for the yakima skybox 12 for...
