I found looking at the guy's other auctions more interesting I have $155,000 to spend on a crane, that would rock!

That's awesome... I think the best part of the pic are the 2 girls in the background... You could have had em Ski, you coulda had em.

That red is just freggin painful
-
Ouch, don't like the red
-
I'm going to do the adult thing here and completely avoid the obvious jests.
-
Ouch, is it a general practice to wear a cup while racing?
-
Geez, I wanna ski

Let me preface this comment with the fact that I obviously don't know much about teaching kids how to ski. 1yr 4mo seems way early to me... most kids can't walk all that well and can barely talk if at all... I don't know, just seems like maybe wait another year Ski? Sib? when did you start the young'ens?
-
Where?!?!
-
Geez, I hope I'm in that kind of shape at 52... I'm 25 and don't know if I could do a 12 mile hike through the mountains... Answer me this... how do you leave a good, stable job and head west to start anew? If I could figure this out, you'd have a new neighbor!
-
That is awesome looking... Glad to see you're telling us where these things are now instead of saying "somewhere in paradise" 11.7 is a hell of a hike, lots of respect for that... wish I could be there and not here where it's nasty outside and won't stop raining

I'll be right back, I need to wipe the drool from my chin.

Welcome to the board sean! Well... Me being a skier can't give you the best information around, but I can tell you blue has built a pretty badass park in the past couple years, turning sidewinder into their "advanced" park, with a more beginner park (2 jumps, a couple boxes) down toward the bottom of the mountain. Really the only mountains in the area I go to are blue and cb, but I can say blue's parks are better. Nothing down here is going to compare to what you ski up there (maybe mountain creek but I dunno), but I'm sure you can find some fun somewhere! Edit: Just noticed you're a skier too I had lots of fun doing stuff at blue, but I'm not that advanced in the parks...

Blah blah blah, thanks coach!

I'm still on my 180 Fischer S500s from last year, still in my old crappy boots for now (new ones by the end of the summer)...
-
Good reason why my money has gone to blue this year.
-
My first thought would be to agree with you that this probably isn't happening. Knowing camelback, you would be hearing all kinds of stuff about their "improved park experience" already.... like when they beef up the snowmaking system and make it this huge pr thing. I guess anything worth spending money on is worth advertising the hell out of. So that's my guess Sorry that I don't have any real facts

Thanks for the help guys, lots of good ideas for the winter to come, and lots of shopping to do. Ski, he will be about 4 and a half during ski season. If I were to start him on the 80 cm skis, could I get more than a year out of a purchase? Just wondering if it would be more worthwhile to rent if I'm just going to be buying more next year. I need some new gear this year, so I'll shop for the kid too... should be fun to get him out there.

Hey all, I'm looking for some advice. I want to get my 4 year old nephew into skiing this year, and I have no clue the steps I should take (or the equipment). I've heard that getting them into lessons is a much better idea than trying to teach them yourselves. If anyone has any suggestions at all, or training gear you're looking to get rid of cheap, let me know! Thanks!
-
Yeah, that's how I do it... just make a T with your skates, works real well!
-
Ahh... I flew over the rockies yesterday (in vegas right now), and I was thinking there was a whole lot of snow... looked REEEEEEAL nice. I almost had to ask the pilot to pull over
-
Hell yeah man, that'd be nice... but driving wouldn't be bad either, just for a few turns.
-
Hey man, I would be in for a little road trip... hmmmm
-
Hehe sounds like a good ol' time. Anyone going for real?
