    The Basics

    Turpin, while we have your undivided attention, I'd like to pick your brain - in public. Can you cover the basics of body positioning for take offs, air and landing? Also can you just cover the basics of how to do spins w/ grabs? I know this sounds elementary, but it's really important.I...

    Salt is used all over the roads back east. Eats up your car and the road. But it really helps break down ice in places that never get warm. Interested to see how that works here. I'm thinking the salt will either wash off or just be used in wet snow (already melting).

    DOS media's Overlooked

    Hey guys, here's a few things I'd like to say about DOS Media: 1. Bentley started this movie this time last year at just 17 years old. 2. He and Cameron do all their own planning3. White balancing is easier than color correcting4. This is their first film5. Both of them are still in the learning...

    Still littered w/ errors? Damn... Looks like they're moving up a notch though. Art is clearly better and the content is improving. What about the web?

    A callout...

    The once-rampant name calling for like 30 consecutive posts is at an all-time low though. So even though there is more 'hate,' at least people are making a much more conscious effort to sound a little more intelligent. The Boone thread actually sounded like a heated conversation and fewer people...

    Hmmm. boone

    Can anyone back up this insurance thing? I'm very curious to know more. I've always wondered how companies asked their employees (athletes) to go destroy themselves all season w/out insurance. But then I think about the premiums and it hurts to imagine. I've never inquired to any other companies...

    I love how this thread keeps going. I still don't see the point of hating. I don't see what good it's doing.

    Icer air results

    ok, here's my take of the situation: 1. Icer took a serious risk putting this thing on after all their sponsors pulled out. But everyone got to see great skiers ski in downtown SAN FRANCISCO. Plus, you got to go to all the other parities and events in a great city w/ a bunch of your friends. I'm...

    Hmmm. boone

    The tasteful way to say you don't like a product w/out completely disrespecting someone you don't know. All your points are very valid and you managed to refrain hating.
