    Anybody selling a rail near milwaukee?

    Located in Milwaukee, willing to drive 2-4 hours to pickup. Preferably a rail that I could just plop down and it would be pretty stable, but at the end of the day I won't judge too hard.

    Gloves that won't get destroyed by tow rope?

    I went through like 3 pairs of gloves that season from my park's fucking tow rope. I'm looking at dropping some cash on a pair by Wells Lamont and idiotproofing them with duct tape. Any other brands that are pretty good at not getting eaten away?

    Perks of longer skis?

    got a pair of ARV 86's last season that are a bit short for my size, on purpose. i sort of prefer shorter skis because i feel like i have more control over them, as there is less length and weight to maneuver. however i saw a ton of guys in the park rocking really long vishnus and other brands...

    What constitutes a ski being beat?

    I’ve only had my ARV 86’s for one season but I’ve roughed them up a lot. Damn near every other day was spent on icy groomers or the park. The edges are pretty dull from rails and I’ve mutilated the top sheet just from general wear and such. Should I just wait for something like delamination/core...

    Would using a mouthguard be a good idea?

    This fucking thread is burned in my head, I'm terrified of that happening to me. I dislocate my shoulder almost daily and have broken a few bones but this seems horrible.

    Yes I know I’m retarded no I don’t want skiermans input. I took this girl on a date to teach her how to ski and when we were returning her rentals I set my skis on a rack outside, forgetting about them.

    My park's tow rope is eating up my gloves so I'm discerning putting duct tape on them, but I don't want to perma-fuck them. Has anyone done this? I used the searchbar and saw a lot of people recommend it but never have said they have done it. Thanks.
