I should try this. I had to yell a few times yesterday and then slowed down to a crawl. Then i needed to work a little to regain momentum

Good point. This earns camelback several dings from me. Its absurd putting nonskiers on a trail in large quantities.

Lol GSS is the nicest guy on here.

Yes I know but they should have built a bridge overhead by now. I could see a lawsuit there some day. Oh well ill have to go slow there i guess.

Im not debating, i just prefer to leave it to the experts.

Does anyone know why the installed the mountain coaster queue directly across a busy ski trail? What a stupid decision. Yesterday I was speeding down Rhod Glen and need momentum to get back to Stevenson Lift, but there was so many damn mountain coaster tourists lollygagging in the middle of the trail. I like Camelback but that whole setup is very stupid.

To me a binding must be on the indemnification list and tested peroidically by a shop. If those criteria are met then I'm good.

Yep that was the harshest flame I've received on here so far. I dont wish injury on anyone.

Ok

Road. I put on a lot of miles so even if i eat a lot i still seem to lose weight

Not elaborating on that topic anymore. Just needed to answer why i cant gain weight. Carry on blue related topics

Its fun seeing my name mentioned when I scroll through random threads. I must be having some impact. Whether thats good or bad...

King of Mountain - fastest time on a segment. One hill I attempted over 40 times and finally got the fastest time out of 300 universal attempts from like 30 people. So its a start. Pikes Peak annihilated me though.

Nah I am trying to lose weight so I can bike up hills faster. I hold 8 KOMs on Strava and need to defend them next year if necessary

Once I walked into a bar by my dorm and some guys were busting on me calling me "McMuffiin" because they thought I looked like McLoving or something. Then they busted me for asking the bartender for a 4 pack of beer when I guess they don't actually sell 4 packs.

Lol. Fake ID? I'm almost 30! Is this a McMuffin reference from that movie Superbad? People used to say I looked like McMuffin when I wore glasses.

Exactly. I doubt this will be my last pair of skis. I'll try them for a few seasons and also attend the demo sessions to try wider skis later in the year. But I really want a better ski for the rest of this season.

Good point. Since I don't care about my $200 Elans anymore I've gotten lazy and just started leaving them sitting out. But with the RTMs I'll be much more cautious. I know mountain management won't do anything if they're stolen, except maybe file a police report.

I should probably learn how to wax, and do it regularly. I moved across flat terrain with ease with the RTMs, whereas I struggle with my Elans.

Wow, that's mean. Ok.

This reminds me, how do you lock your skis up at Blue near the Challenge Express? I have two different types of ski locks and could not figure out what the hell you're supposed to do to lock your skis down there. Can't they install the regular SkiLock style for me so that it's easy? I had to leave my Elans outside unattended and unlocked when I went in to get a lift ticket, change my boots, and use the restroom.

I swear Ski2Live saw the same exact movie and was telling me about it on the lift on the day we had hot cocoa.

Yeah who knows. I regularly hit 47-49 mph, but sometimes the app shows straight lines when it loses the signal, so maybe that skews the speed calculation.

I think I'm carving correctly because my edges are digging into the snow. So maybe bindings could help, but I imagine at my skill level any benefit would be minuscule.

Yep same issue here. I go 50 mph and they're still way ahead of me. Maybe I can generate more speed on my RTMs but not enough to keep up with those guys.
