Shadows

done it twice already. used to it. going to pick up the car tomorrow. has to get an alignment/title tranfser and then im OUT> maybe there friday, who knows i havent seen him around all week. he must be riding with all the pros

if i can get this car figured out he can chill with me. once i get all the paperwork done im out. should be gone by friday. in silverthorne by saturday

is he not having fun or what? kind of a shame i guess and justin, thats last year.

i didnt know atomic made K2

like jeff said earlier. finding comfortable ski boots is easy. you just lose performance. youll be fine if youve never skied before. people that need the performance are the ones that have trouble.

ill spend as much time as it takes. i want these to be good.

stopped by nestors real quick for 3 hours. boots feeling better now. got to get on some snow to see whats up. ive spent at least 15 hours now trying to get these dialed

as far as an employee standpoint, it seems like CB is at least a good place to work now. giving park crew some more freedom and voice is always a good thing.

yea i got my skis mounted there. cool kids and all, bit of a gaper shop though. High altitude is right next to it as well im sure nips goes there often hahaha

theyre staying at a hotel? or did you mean like its a condo development? frisco is cool.

yea i talked to kev about it for a little. his heel looks worse then mine actually. his is scary lookin. but yea, right on the back of the heel. i dont think a donut would help cause the pocket feels fine. i just feels in the wrong position.

sr. always seems super busy so i never asked him. he seems like more of the business side anyway. didnt even know he fitted boots

adam worked with me (i think). im going back sometime this week. it just sucks because when i was originally gettin fitted i was complaining about totally different pain points. they all went away and the boot broke in a little, but it broke in some other problems too

i have huge ankle bones. and a really skinny heel. so pretty much the entire back half of my foot is the problem. the insdes of my heel dont hurt. the outsides do - when you tweak your foot or roll your ankle to grab/grip rails it pushes your bone out you know it feel like the ankle bone pocket/support in the liner is in the wrong position

funny you say that jeff, i got alines in them already - $65 fitted at nestors. i have a super high arch and it collapses a TON. my arch is completely supported, it feels great. my problem is pressure points around the side ankle bones and lack of cushion/protection on the heel bone.. i havent had my boots on for a while so theyve healed up a little but my feet used to have blisters, corns, bruises etc. it hurts to put slippers on haha. these boot perform incredibly but just hurt my feet

summary: I'm going back to get my boots tweaked and/or possibly buy new boots. i feel like every season ive been on skis has been better then the last - but worse as well. locations have been gettin better obviously, tricks have been going ok every year. gettin better here and there. recently ive been coming to the conclusion that i can only progress to a certain point - and then all the new tricks and ideas stop flowing. had a 28.5 last season. got some money and this season got fitted to a 26.5. i can already feel a better connection and power transfer to my skis which is awesome - i also dont get nearly as much shin bang as i did last year. i can control the skis much better, but my foot feels like shit. i cant tweak my ankle/foot in the park without almost collapsing. cant work on grabs cause it hurts my foot, cant grip rails cause it hurts, cant sit on a chair very long cause it hurts, cant sit in a gondola very long cause it hurts etc... landing big switch any way other than perfect is asking to break my heel. theres a shit ton of pressure points.... the boot feels like im wrapped chain maille. i just want one season where my boots feel like plush sheep with kittens laying next to it on top of a shag rug with velvet tips. I ski some of the best parks in the world now but every time i go to the mountain i have no desire to slay shit cause i know if i try to push it, my feet will get so screwed up i wont be able to ski the next day. ive already been on a snowboard more this year then skis.

fo reeeel this weather blows. i came home for this........... HEAVY SNOW WILL DEVELOP MONDAY AFTERNOON... WHICH WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON. TOTAL SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS OF ONE TO TWO FEET ACROSS THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS... AND UP TO 3 FEET ACROSS THE EASTERN SAN JUAN MOUNTAINS...

it definitely hasnt been snowing everyday last week haha. we are supposed to be gettin some inches though. whos he staying with in frisco?

i just feel like if i were to move to whistler, pay rent, work two jobs, and try to ski it wouldnt work out at all. Its a SKI town. If you have to work all the time to ski one day a week, whats the point. cost of living is too much. it sucks even in summit county - finding a job (this late especially) is tough.

yea WTH?!?!?

same old story

whats he wearing? i didnt see him yesterday

i wouldnt say whistler is the best ski town. it would suck to try and live/work/and actually ski there. went to beaver creek for the first time the other day. that shit is insansley over yuppied. elevators/escelators to get up to the slopes. free cookies every day. waiters going around to every deck possible at the bases asking if you want something to drink. every single employee that works on mountain or in the village is hired as proffesional ass kissers. the terrain up there is awesome though.

a51 opened this weekend. still dope

what else is new
