    Looks like I'll be getting to know you all a bit better...

    Picture was taken friday night, about 10 minutes after it happened. My friends decided taking pictures was more important than helping me get some asprin and make a sling.

    Looks like I'll be getting to know you all a bit better...

    Sorry for making you read yet ANOTHER injury thread, but I figured that some of you might get some sort of satisfaction from my pain. So, for your viewing pleasure, I present to you, rubber-arm! Broke both the bones in my forearm, the radius and the something, sorry I'm not an MD. I fucked...

    Spinning while on boxes

    The box in question is a 1 foot wide sheet of HDPE in the backyard on a wooden frame, so probably not enough to flatten the ski's camber.

    10th mountain division?

    My dad has like 3 pairs of Swiss Army skis or something with locking free heel bindings. Not sure why he got so many, but he got them for like $40 each in some army surplus catalogue.

    Spinning while on boxes

    My question isn't about spinning on, like a 270, it's about spinning while sliding on/over boxes. Anyways, I've had some trouble with it, andwas wondering if camber had anything to do with it? If you think about it, your tips and tails hanging off the edges of the box are lower than the part...

    Too much speed on Flat Downs?

    I was up at Sugarbush yesterday, and in their little rail park they had a flat-down rail I was trying, with a really short flat, and then a fairly steep down. Anyways, everytime I hit it, I'd go too fast over the flat, and accidentally gap the whole down, which was actually kind of fun once I...

    Alkky.....jesus christ buddy, can't we just drop it? I mean honestly. Now it's assumed that I suck because I didn't like your precious park on one particular day? I was already informed that the park had been neglected a little because of the boardercup thing, and that's all I was wondering...

    Whiteface

    I never insulted the jumps, just said they had nothing between a 3 footer and like a 30 something. Can't you just accept that I didn't have the best ski day of my life on Friday, and was just wondering if it's always like that, or I just picked the wrong day? Why is it assumed that I'm...

    Whiteface

    Alright, excuse me, but I beleive I was entirely reasonable with my posts. I wasn't saying the whole mountain sucked and nobody should go there. I realize it's more fun if you know where you're going, and as someone pointed out the reason the rails were mostly gone was because of the World Cup...

    Whiteface

    Alright, that would explain the lack of rails, I was looking forward to the DFD and 34' battleship though. And I'll admit that me not being able to find some decent glades was probably due to it being one of my first times their, I'm just used to Smuggs where openings to glades are blatantly...

    Best goggles other than crowbars

    I got mine at SolsticeSupply.com Great guy there. I ordered some soldiers, which had gone out of stock, so he said he'd ship me any goggle, even at a higher price, for what I'd already paid. The package made it from like Utah to my doorstep in like 2 days too.

    Can't quite get 270 on

    Thanks for the help, I finally started fully commiting, and throwing my head all the way around is what really did it. I can get the rotation almost perfect and consistently now, but I've got to work on my sliding unnatural, because almost every time I slide out a couple feet after I land.

    Fujatives, Public Enemies or Line Anthems?

    Anthems are the way to go. Also, with center mount, go a good deal longer than usual. I'm 5'6" 120, and had the hardest time deciding between 161 and 171. I got the 171, and can't imagine that I even considered going any smaller, they feel perfect. The ONLY time I regret the extra length is...

    Alright, YES I searchbarred, but couldn't find anything like this. Second of all, this is NOT intended as a rant, but just to let people know. I was up at Whiteface with a friend Friday, and with no clouds in the sky, and actually pretty warm, the weather was geat. Unfortunately, the skiing...

    Can't quite get 270 on

    Damn I feel retarded, I meant to say it's a foot WIDE, it's actually 12 feet long. Still kindof short for some stuff, but lpenty long enough for this. Thanks for the advice, good thing aobut backyard setups is you can just keep beating yourself up on them all day long.

    Can't quite get 270 on

    YES, I did searchbar it, but most of the results were about 270 off or whether they're easier on rails or boxes, and stuff like that. Anyways, we built a foot long box, and I started trying 270's on today. My first hit was just an ugly failure, but after that, about 15 times in a row I would...

    Empire has outrageous prices

    This is why I make half my own shirts. 5 bright colored plain T-shirts for $4 each, plus about 2 dollars worth of paint each, plus my airbrush and home made stencils, = dope shirts for $6 each.
