    Backyard setup is dry

    Backyard setup is dry because of the shit weather here in the Midwest. Just to entertain me, pick which one you'd hit first.

    I posted this in the wrong forum. Check this out!

    So I fucked up and put this in the wrong spot, if a moderator would like to fix it for me..... Turns out that I'm working on an old ski resort https://www.newschoolers.com/forum/thread/819322/What-are-the-odds-of-this--

    What are the odds of this!?

    This place that I've been working at along Lake Michigan is surrounded by dunes and extremely high elevations along the shoreline. I have been working here for over a month renovating a lakefront cottage. Every day when driving through these hills I think to myself " damn this place would make...

    Skiing with backpack on

    I am planning on doing a lot of videoing and photography this year and thinking about carrying some equipment in my day pack. A lot of times I ski with a backpack on, but only some pop/fireball and snacks in there. I am a little scared to break stuff! How many of you ski often with your pack on?

    First tune/wax

    So I bought some new Bdogs and I am mounting the binders next weekend. I normally do all of my own work to my skis because a friend owns the local ski shop. I am not planning on de-tuning them because this year will be barely any park until late season if any. My question is about waxing. I...

    Filming my boys this season-need advice

    Since I can't ski hard this season, I decided to try to film a lot of my kids mountain time. I am in serious need of help since the most filming I have ever done was with an iPhone ha! I'm not looking to spend an arm and a leg(still paying off this knee), but I will be cleared to ski groomers...

    Hook my son up with some Short/junior skis

    Looking for a deal on a set of planks that range from 145-155. He is a moderate skier but is progressing fast and just keeps growing! His current ones are too small. Hook up the future with a deal NS!

    Should I detune?

    I picked up a new set of B-dogs for this season and they are sitting in plastic still. I planned on detuning them underfoot but now I am second guessing it. I had acl and meniscus surgery this spring and am not sure just how much park skiing I will do my first season back, and realistically will...

    Best side release binding.

    Yes I've been through almost all of the sticky. After almost 2 weeks trying to figure out what bindings to slap on my new Bdogs, I am torn between some FKS/Look pivots and Marker griffons. I am coming back from a nasty ACL injury last winter and had to have reconstructive knee surgery...

    De-tune or not to de-tune new Bdogs.

    Got a new set of Bdogs for next year and I'm looking for some advice on where to de-tune, if any. I've been reading some pros and cons about both. These will be mainly pow skis and groomers/backcountry with the occasional box/rail. Like 80/20. I have a set of park skis for when I'm in the park...

    Reconstructive knee surgery yesterday.

    Well I finally went under the knife yesterday morning. The doc said that everything went good and my meniscus was in better shape than he expected. So after a new ACL and minor meniscus repair, I am at home doped out of my mind using the knee machine. Bought myself a new set of Armada Bdogs...

    Knee is out

    I was hitting the park hard at highlands today and ended up taking a nasty spill. It's the first time ever that I've heard bones actually pop/break. My right knee. Ski patrol checked it and said "no breaks, but more than likely torn". They wrapped it for me and I am now chillin in the bar...

    How about we actually let each other know where the haps are around here? Does anyone check this forum besides me. How often do you visit.

    Getting Older

    Starting take a lot longer to recover after a day in the park. While I enjoy skiing hard and hitting back country too, I'm not really sure how many more years I can keep doing it at this level. I'm 36 years old and can still hang with most of the young bucks in the park, but I'm sure I feel...

    Sessions crash pads

    Well during the offseason I scooped up some sessions crash pants. I had a stretched hip flexor last season from a crash with major impact to my left hip that had me out for 2 weeks, so I thought I'd give this a whirl. I had to have them custom tailored because the mens "small"(typically a...
