I forgot to mention this in the lot last weekend, I don't remember if it was Saturday or Sunday but was on the SS6P passing chute just as @Johnny Law was sending it over the headwall, wish I had a camera to capture his colors against the bluebird sky and half moon behind him but the image is seared into my brain

I'd probably do an evening sesh if they offered it, that was fun back in the day until Mattie stepped in and started yelling at everybody

Speaking of BMDI anyone had the fresh sausage lately? It used to come as a smashed link no casing but the other day it was a cased link. They were busy so I didn’t bother questioning and it was good, just wondering if it changed or they messed up my order

Great few pre-work runs, stayed on the groomers 'cept for a run through the ditch which was a hoot with some nice soft piles On the drive up the mountain was a crazy rose color, pic not able to capture the color. Just after I took this I glanced in the rearview to see a brilliant shaft of light behind me, mesmerizing, but decided better keep my eyes on the road. Didn't think too much about it but on one the lift rides another guy mentioned he saw the same thing. Apparently a light pillar or light slant, seen some cool phenoms the last few weeks

A few weeks ago in the lot there was talk about a bear creek slalom nastar night? They still runnin'it? (Goes to the googs) Unclear...chat bot and google say yes and come up with a page but I couldn;t link to it from the website...

people are slobs and just don't give a shit, I've seen others and have had words with people telling them to pick up their garbage in both the lift lines and parking lot

Some years back Blue used to have an annual Bikercross race that I would watch every year. The one year it was snowing pretty good and coming back down the mountain a jeep in font of me slides out and takes out the pole the same way at the curve just uphill from there. I "Oh fuck'd" it around and went back up and watched 2 more poles come down in the rearview, what a day of absolute mayhem!

yea and I'm sure the mechanism required to keep the brake disengaged in tour mode while your lifting your boot would be somewhat fiddly. Now youve got me curious, I'll have to check out those radicals Most tele binding don't have brakes either except for a few and some NTN's for the same reason. edit: don't need brakes if your bindings don't release lol
-
"can" being the operative word, my guess in real world applications the difference apples to apples is negligible source AI ?!
-
hmm never really thought about it, do most touring bindings not have brakes?
-
Nice, you get Indy this year? If so let me know if you want do a Shawnee uphill one afternoon
-
that's the beauty of it, you get to nibble around the perimeter to make buccee heads!

Looks like it worked really well, feels like it’s in the right spot too ! We’ll see next time out

Yea I talked to him about it the other day, since its just the one spot I just heated heated up the one area for 15 minutes with Mrs snobunski’s blow dryer (sshhh 😉) if it doesnt work I’ll heat up the whole shell they are supposedly mold able shells. Too bad JD and mugsy aren’t still at blue 😒

So the new boots are good except for one hot spot on the tumor that must’ve grown into the old boots Not sure where to go locally for a punch decided to try a diy, $30 and a C clamp later I am set to give it a go Marked The spot and heated those puppies up and clamped ‘em, will pet you know how it works out
