Anytime I want a good laugh I turn on some old shows. One of my all time favorites is the The Andy Griffith Show due to it's clean humor that doesn't make you want to read a book and wash your eyes out after watching it. What old shows do you watch, and what do you enjoy about it?

I worked at a hotel last summer as a housekeeper (aka a maid) to pay for some new gear. I had to listen to some foreign lady yell at me all day for not getting all the pubic hairs off the bathroom floor. The hours sucked (I worked 6 12's), it was humiliating, and exhausting. Needless to say...

Just for those who don't know ESPN is giving snowboarding a turn at showing off their backcountry skills tomorrow at 5ET on ABC. Sammy Carlson took gold on Real Ski Backcountry back on September 14th. What are your predictions for Snowboarding?

I'm sure you all know what I mean. You just spent $400-$700 on some brand new skis and they look perfect. And within a week there are scrapes all over the topsheet's and sidewalls. The same goes for polls and boots. How do you mentally deal with this?

There is no denying that Walmart is a rather entertaining place to be at times. Here in MN we have plenty of them and I normally always come out laughing at something. We recently took a trip down to Mississippi and on our way back we stopped in Branson, Missouri (Highly recommend it). While we...

When it comes to reaching for the stars, most of my family never put much effort into it. College was never a priority due to the fact that they lived in the absolute middle of nowhere. However I do have an aunt that went to college and is now the benefits director of Medtronic which the largest...

Yeah I know there are a million threads on slacklining but I haven't found an answer to my question. I recently have been wanting to try something new and I figure the most economical thing would be slacklining. I do not really want to purchase more than I have to; so would I be fine to...

I have some residue from duck tape (Don't ask how it got on there) on one of the bases of my skis and some old wax that I would like to remove. I have heated it up with the iron, scraped it, brushed it, beat it with a hammer and I still haven't managed to get it completely off. Does anyone...

This year at Pebble Beach some poor soul paid over $34,000,000 for a Ferrari that cost $18,000 out of the factory and a mere $10,000 to produce. Meanwhile, I had to get a small malt a Culver's because the medium one was to expensive. Does this anger you as well?

Last year I had more close calls than all of my previous seasons combined. Most of these people are skiers/boarders on rentals who decide to have a picnic in the landing of the jumps or cut across a rail line without looking up hill. I had one incident last year where a little girl (Probably...

I know ski boots keep them rather firm but how much pressure do you guys put on your ankles when spinning on rails and off jumps? I got a class 2 sprain earlier this year and it hasn't healed like wonders. I have good fitting boots so that is not the issue but I do still feel it on my ankle...

I have spent my entire day running from shop to shop looking for some new boots for this year. In the end I like the SPK's for their fit and flex. the model was last years (2014) SPK 100's. The price at the shop however was $433 which included free heat molding, custom work, and guaranteed...

I am trying to be proactive this year and prevent injuries before they happen. I'm looking for some impact shorts but I am not interested in spending 120 on a pair of POC's. Does anyone have any recommendations on a good brand that is low profile yet effective. And also does anyone here wear...

So I was at the Lucas Oil Nationals yesterday watching some drag racing when this crash happened. I personally know the guy on the left lane (Don) and he fractured his Pelvis in the crash. The other guy walked away uninjured but both their cars were destroyed. Tell me this isnt one of the...

Ok this might just be a Midwest thing but I have noticed that ski patrol especially last year really enjoys taking their time to respond to a call. This is really apparent at the smaller hills. I can remember 3 separate incidences last year where I was honestly completely amazed at how slow...

I normally take a trip every year around mid Feb. Out of every place I have been I have most enjoyed the Yellowstone area for it's remoteness and simply awesome skiing and powder. This season however I want to try something new. I do not want a very busy resort nor one that is very tourist...

With most major resorts now days connected by well maintained and salted/sanded roads it is becoming less of a worry on how you are going to get to your destination. Most people can make the trip in front wheel drive city geared cars with no problem in a short and economical way. But even with...
