    New skis or not?

    Last years skis' funds came a lot from Santa... not all obviously, but it took the stress off the overall price... the grandparents also threw soem money my way at the christmas time.... This year's skis were helped pay for by the sale of last years, but 80% of the funds came from my...

    New skis or not?

    I actuially already wear my boots pritty snug because I suffer from the curse of the chicken legs (skinny ancles... very skinny). I can be an agressive skiier at times though; I say that because I prefer big airs over tiny rails and stuff (so I'm really working it). I did enjoy the skis...

    New skis or not?

    I ment moreso regarding to turning as the difference between the stiff and soft. I find with my Skogans under turning, they want to break loose, where as I see a lot of the softer skis flexing and holding their own and don't want to spring back straight again (causing you to slip out). Also...

    06 Salomon 1080 boots

    I think I'll pass on the foot surgery idea. Though interesting, I'd rather have uncomfortable feet (it's also wee-wee wee-wee gross!) The $7-800 range too is another BIG hurdle. Granted they will fit my feet nicely, I've been using custom footbeds to try and cheat by cradeling my foot closer...

    06 Salomon 1080 boots

    Dan you're the man! That helps tremendously; thanks. I was speaking with the girl at Tremblant, and well, between her accent and my staring at her (she was quite the attractive lady) I only got so much. I think I'm going to go for it deifnarely. I thought about getting this years, but...

    New skis or not?

    Well last year being the first year twintipping I got the 03/04 K2 PE's (with rossy P110's) I bought the PE's because they were stiff, and what I was told was that stiff skis were good. Ihey were great, but this year I was looking for somehting more park specific. For this past season I was...

    06 Salomon 1080 boots

    I was looking through the catalogue, and it appears that there is a honeycomb type thing happening on the side of the boots. Theres also 2 models it looks liek of the 1080 boot (unless I read it wrong). Infact, the little instruction booklet on some of the later production 04/05 botts has a...

    Some sick little rippers ~ VIDEO ~

    I'd like to start off by saying this was shot entirely on a $250 photo camera in less than 2 hours because my batteries were dyeing, and edited using microsoft movie maker (garbage program). As well, it's the first video I've ever put together, but I think it came out pritty decent...

    Line Reactors (last reactor post?)

    All that I can say is anyone who's seen me fall at Dagmar over the course of the winter knows these bindings are tough shit. I've full on smashed these things on box's, ice, people, myself, you name it, and I've hit it. So far other than a scuff on one of them and my binding self-adjusting...

    holy shit

    I'm 5'9, 123 lbs, and i rode 159 PE's last year, and this it's 158 skogan sprang's..... I wouldn't go longer than this based on your height (since im 5'9') and this is the length im riding. As well, it will probably be harder to muscle the longer sticks around w/ your light weight (thankfully...

    Public Enemy's & bumps

    I suppose it all depends on your defination of bump. My little mounds of snow from snowboarders or whatever, you just float right over them. I havent had a chance to get them in deep stuff so piles of drift I can't speak for. Or maybe you mean mogules, in which this case, you're talking a...
