Thanks guys! I also always use a waterproofer too, so that is perfect. My main concern was that I would be paying for the name Spyder, not a quality product. I think that with this jacket it is a little of both and will wait until summer to buy

Yeah, but not in the color I want. I've looked. Thanks.

Is it crazy to spend $675.00 for a Spyder Jacket. It is time for a new one and the Spyder Vail jacket is the one I want. Any comments or product reviews appreciated. Thanks. Spyder Vail jacket

Well, we are going, for better or for worse. See you at 7:15.

OK, I am so torn. How was it today, really? And don't worry about park conditions, I don't go in there if I can help it. Thanks.

We are possibly going. It will depend on the weather. I wish we would postpone till next week, but who knows, the weather could suck then too. See you all in the A.M., maybe.

Sunday is going to suck too. I am out. Sorry, we don't have season passes and are not wasting the day or the money. Besides, I love my skis too much to subject them to the horror that the rain and high tems are bound to leave.

Who went and how was it? I am trying to justify going this weekend, even though I kinda know better. Help.

We are going to try to get up early and be there at 7:15. Sis in law and her boyriend will proabably join us around 8. Of course this all depends on the weather.

Plan for a giant snow storm 02/25/06. My ski birthday trip ends on the 24th and we are going clubbing in the city on the 25th. Since the weather and I do not get along, this means that there will be snow on the only day I can't ski and need clear roads. If I don't want snow (I know, I can't believe I typed that either) then I promise you that there will be snow and lots of it. Be warned.

We may go tommorow morning, Bob got done early. When you say ice, Skifreak, do you mean managable ice or break your neck ice?

Guys are hopeless. If you have dry boots and just want to deodorize sprinkle some Gold bond or Dr. Scholls powder and let them sit a few hours or overnight. When you are ready to wear them again dump out the powder and strap them on. VERY IMPORTANT- unless you want foot powder mashed potatoes in your boots don't powder when they are wet. You're welcome.

We is Bob and I. And no, I am not married for another 3 months. Although 7 years together is married to some people. Bob wasn't lying when he says he likes cats.

I wish I had gone early this morning!! We had a meetng with the accountant at noon and thought that we wouldn't make it back in time. After we were supposed to be painting, but the motorcycle called to Bob and he had to answer. No way am I riding today, maybe while he's out I'll run up to Blue or Bear Creek. Girls day out sounds great right about now anyway.

Damn, this thing is going to cost me alot of money. I really want to out ski Bob next year and the Skiers Edge may be my only chance, since he is a lazy bum when it comes to exercise and will never touch the thing. FYI, the Skiers Edge is a piece of equipment that simulates the motion of skiing and uses resistance bands to help you strengthen your ski muscles.

Dancer... Ballet not pole. Also, where can a cute blonde get herself a PASR sticker, hoodie, thong? Represent.

OK, the skiers edge... Has anyone tried it? If so what did you think? If not, would you buy one if they weren't like $1,000.00? I am thinking I may get one, but don't want to waste my money. I really want to be able to ski for more than 5 hours without significant thigh burn. Just to let you know, before I get tons of responses saying to do squats, lunges, etc, I have a slight disability and my muscle structure is different then a normal person's. I am also the CFO of a company, which means that I cannot skip out of work like all you ski bums and hit the slopes 7 days a week. Thanks for the imput.

I don't race yet, I am not good enough. Bob was always a skier, but I just started last year. In another life ( 10+ years ago) I was a boarder but I had to stop. I took a break from snowsports and went to college, but now I am back with a vengance. I am not really a speed freak and don't think I am competitive enought for racing though. My favorite skiing is steep trails with challenging conditions, bumps, berms and jumps. Maybe I'll do skier cross next year, who knows. I would actually really love to learn aerials. I used to be a dancer and I have some gymnastics training and think I could be very good with some practice. Private lessons anyone? Just kidding.

Is the course ready and open to the public in the morning before the race? I would love to ride it once or twice but I don't really want to race.

I AM A GIRL! Anyway thanks for the imput. I think we may do Belleayre and stay at the Roxbury. I looked at the mountain's website and the hotel website and both look pretty cool. I would say I am a mid level intermediate. I can ski blacks well, but not all day. It looks like Bellayare is mostly (50%) intermediate anyway. Thanks again.

He does, but if he doesn't stop posting that I am a guy he isn't going to get any for a while.

I wish work would blow up so I could ski all day. Also, to rub t in...Tretiak I can also clear the rght sde of the 1st jump and I totall suck.

OK guys I have another one for you. Who here has skied Plattekill or Belleayre and what did you think? My company has free tickets to both and Bob & I have a Friday off in February. I was going to do a poll to see which you liked but I thought it was asking for punishment. I can just hear it now.. "who did Sexkitten's poll?". No thanks, I don't need anymore "she's a guy" discussions. Thanks in advance.

When I say people who can't stop on double blacks shouldn't ski them that is me extremely frustrated at the people who ski and can't stop anywhere. Like you say Shadows, if you can't stop don't ski off of the bunny hill. I am just sore (in more ways than one) about the guy who decided I was the perfect person to hit to stop himself from tumbling the whole way down Challenge, TWICE. I have an ugly green bruise on my thigh, which totally sucks. Sorry, but I don't need help hurting myself, I do well enough on my own.

I am an intermediate skier and the blacks are often challenging for me. My one self imposed rule is that if I can't stop at any point on a trail then I don't belong there. I understand that you will never know if you can ski a trail until you try it, but if you can't stop on a green or blue then you have no business on the blacks. Why wreck someone else's run or hurt another skier so you can brag to your pals that you skied Challenge? This is the reason that I stay out of the park. I have no idea what I am doing and would totally be in the way. Oh well.
