Wide skis are good for the poke n hoes because the snow conditions are often variable and choppy. On non pow days in the Rockies I'm more comfortable on my mantras than at Blue on a normal day..funny but true.

Yes

6 pack only and not much standing around during night sessions. I'll be on the snow by 7

Atomic Jeff and matt edge will also be out.

I think that's the length of Atomic jeffs SL skis..he looks like a pinball going down lazy mile on those..quite a workout.

What are they 165s??? What skis would be good on a day like today? My shiros rocked last night in the spring snow..obviously not good in the bumps..my mantras are way better in the bumps since they're narrower and shorter

The snowmaking cannons are cranking out some of Carbon counties finest snow..operation blizzard 4.0 is in full affect.

He's hypercarving. That's what I do when the snow is right..sometimes I get so low I bootout..it's why I'm considering wearing body armor

Honestly I think K2 is the coolest sounding brand of skis because gosh K2 is the worlds second highest mountain.

And I'm a legendary freestyle rapper. The guns are on should be nice tomorrow night. Not to warm not to cold..just right. I call that mad goldilocks

He got work done at a podiatrist. Just the boots were probably half that amount.

Yeah skis aren't like buying a pair of pants at Kohls and realizing they're a little snug and returning them. They aren't refundable unless there's a defect and then you have to ship them to the manufacturer which is probably in Tahiti or china or Idaho or somewhere exotic

A lot of times if you demo a pair of skis they will use the demo price towards the purchase of a pair of new skis. Salty this will be you on the Volkyl RTM skis. Of all skis how did you come up with those as an option.

Salty does the $599 include binders? Look online and if you see a better price print it out that's your leverage. Aren't they last years model. Sometimes if you pay cash you can avoid paying sales tax which would save you $30 right there.

And remember I'm half owner of a tombstone company and offer a PASR discount.

You're welcome and anytime.

Wow just wow.

Maybe you'll beat the 2 hour and 8 minute drive of last week...

That's sweet that you are getting new skis this weekend. You should try to haggle for the Volkys

After 4-5 years your boots might end up losing enough plastic to affect binding performance if you are skiing 50 days a season but by then you'll need new boots anyway. They sell ski trax to clip into the bottom of your boots if that's a big deal to you. Atomic Jeff has custom boots that were like $1500 so he uses them..

You either get a locker or you put the bag back in your car. I think people mainly pot up in the lodge because they like to boot up in warmth, not because it's a pain to walk 100 yards in ski boots. For most skiers walking in ski boots is no big deal..heck some hike in them.

It's ok I'll let it slide...thanks SallyAnne!!

I think you skied both BC and Blue in the same day last season.

Traversing is going sideways..

I would just have my skis over one shoulder and my poles under my armpit and boots in other hand. Most boots have a little strap/handle at the top of the tongue.
