Haha, you live around here? I used to race there.

As he says, sack it up. Haha, the guy is such a character.

I keep trying to grow a beard for this reason, but I can't stand the itchyness and start shaving before I remember I'm trying to grow a beard and have to finish. I'm going to have to write a reminder on my bathroom mirror.

You ought to be the 181's. You are probably only going to be skiing on about 175 edge with a pair on 181 twin tips. I'm 6' and 150lbs and I have some 181's in the mail with my name on em.

While I don't know this for sure, but I imagine they were wise enough to take a risk when first helping these companies out. Props to them if so. They were smart enough too to make sure they keep them.

Not sure if it'd take. I mean pain to some extent is half the fun. Like you take some good spills while trying something new, and when you nail it, it makes it all that much more worth. Sort of stupid macho talk, but then again its true in the back of your head.

That'd be killer. I plan on taking friday off and hopefully having my new skis mounted up then. If I plan it right maybe I could get some sweet first tracks.

Good objective review, I approve.

The first year they made skis, not too durable. I've heard that they have really stepped the quality though.

Put this up maybe 5 days sooner and I would have taken them off your hands in a heart beat. I've got some skis in the mail right now.

Cheap old racer trick that might help you a little. Take some duck tape and put it over that area in front of your toe buckels where the plastic overlaps meets the tow shell area of the boot. Air and water can actally get in through there, especially if the rubber has worn down.

Actually when you get your skis ground it takes off both base and edge.... Otherwise your base would be higher off the ground then the edge. Have a shop base grind you skis. Should only cost 20 bucks for a good job. Don't sand with a belt sander, it will "seal" your bases (get too hot) and they...

Another idea, that would be a little bit more doable, and perhaps be a launching ground to yours, would be to have NS days at various mts. See the faces behind the names, maybe have like a BBQ set up at the bottom of the mtn and get some companies to give away some swag.

I find that if I look at the feature from higher up on the hill it looks bigger then it really is and it spooks you some. Look at it from the side and keep that picture in your head. Often you eat it just because you get spooked and don't commit.

Skier chics tend to be a little bigger, which is a nice departure from the ethiopian girls you typically see in there.

Use your better judegement. But life is for the living. When I'd dead, I wouldn't wish to hold anyone back.

I'll be sending good vibes his way.

Burts Bees is where it is at. Rumor has it that the chap-stic brand stuff temporarily relieves your lips but when it wears off leaves your lips drier, making you dependent on it. Burts supposably doesn't do it.

I'm guessing your asking if when your flexing a ski at the shop, if it'll feel as stiff as when your riding it. A binding should stiffen the ski up some, but then again when you have a binding on it, your gonna be on it, exerting your weight, which is more then you can exert with your arm on...

Volkl Karma's and Head Mojo 80's will be names you hear alot. These are stiff skis which means they will have better edge hold when carving.
