    Rental boots

    This is a very good point - I can pack the bare minimum I need to ride in my boot bag (helmet, boots, underlayers, goggles, pants and gloves) and wear my coat on the plane. That way, I can still ride if the airline loses my stuff. Note - I learned this the hard way when I had a trip ruined by...

    Identifying other Newschoolers

    Wow! Not only has my modest suggestion resulted an epic thread on each NS and TGR, we now have Mr. Bishop posting in the the Teton Gravity forums. This is very good, I think, in that it has fostered discussion between the groups - even if some of it has gotten a little heated. Regardless...

    Identifying other Newschoolers

    Absolutely - I think it is natural that it would evolve into a short and elegant call and response.

    Identifying other Newschoolers

    Right on Man - That was my other idea. I couldn't come up with a really good response to it, though.

    NS slang and definitions

    Can't forget "Safety Meeting" - Getting high. On that note, I participated in a rail jam on Saturday, and before the contest started the judges called for a "Safety Meeting" - but this actually involved a discussion on how not to get hurt. I was extremely disappointed.

    Mounting PX series without lifters

    Ear Ringing...fuck

    I have been playing music in bands since I was in high school and have had tinnitus since I was 17. It will always be there (key of C sharp, btw). At this point I am so used to it I don't even hear it unless there is discussion about hearing loss or damage. The lesson here is, however...

    The Race To 200 Inches!

    The mid-mountain measuring stake at Skibowl is 135 inches and it has been buried for two days while it continues to dump. That is about 4200 ft of elevation, btw. Sickness

    Looks like espn is going to shaft us out of those runs - but from the scores it doesn't look like it amounts to much.
