Pre-Season STOKE Thread!!!

[AtomicSkier]

the unofficial week is 1/30-2/6. It'll probably change 50 times before then, though. I'd be glad to grab some beers anytime. I still have your cell #, so I'll give you a shout soon.

 

yes that is the unofficial week. It may change more then 50 times before we book.

Bubba's BBQ....AngryHugo is and all of us are AlpenHof fans..for some German food and bier..

 

....and attractive women with big bubble butts. The Mangy Moose is cool, too. It's nice to alternate between the two.

Never had knee issues, injury, surgery..............yet. Opting for the 22 Designs Axl tele binding instead after researching the various products, but they're hard to find on line for a good price. Picked up a pair of Garmont Ener G tele boots used once for $300. Other than the telebindings, I'm pretty much done for gear.

yeah the xxl is rather burly. if i remember correctly, bottom end of the DIN range is at 12. i ride my park skis at 10 and have never had issues with prerelease/non-release even hitting bigger stuff out west, so i'd be a bit scared to run something that beefy, but if you're skiing stuff that's definite no-fall type terrain where you don't want the remote chance of your ski coming off, then that's your binding.

Loveland started making snow today!

[Dan-]

Looking at the extended forecast for killington. Yeah i know they don't mean shit, but temps the first week of october look damn close for them to be able to blow snow. It's coming.

[RootDKJ]

6-10 day temperature prediction.

 

The 8-10 day looks even better.

Thats huge stoke... They've put alot of snow down in the past 2 nights... I wonder what the high temps are there? I know they are considerable lower than what most of the weather agencies report... I would say they have about a 3rd of the snow they want... With all that traffic the first couple weeks they need a deep base... Can't wait for that snowmaking to spread eastward... Looks like most of the weather I have seen for the northeast shows the temps trending down with the seasonal averages... Soon...

[AngryHugo]

It's snowing in Breckenridge:

WHYY is running a membership drive, they played a Jeff Beck tribute show to Les Paul earlier this evening which was great. One of the packages was 2 tix to the show with a meet n greet. I was downstairs looking thru my vinyl and decided "There and Back" needs to get inked with his autograph.

[mbike-ski]

very cool - i love the keswick. I try to catch a few shows a year there, last was levon helm and the wood bros

[Mixilplix]

The Keswick doesn't have it listed on there site yet and Ticketmaster doesn't even have it listed. I've seen it on some other sites though......The astounding Mr. Beck always puts on a great show...This one especially since it's a show/tour to promote the DVD for the Les Paul tribute show.

[Mixilplix]

Just ordered some Jeff Beck tix...Got them through WHYY for a fund donation...Thanks Moe!!!!!!!

[Mixilplix]

You got the wrong Beck.

Nice. Last Keswick show for me was Johnny Cash. It's been a while.

March 25? Should be tits if he plays some of his stuff. I hope it isn't a full blown Les Paul tribute, not that there's anything wrong with that, but I gotta hear him play a few of my faves. Perfect day would be a foot or more of fresh spring blower the nite before at Blue, ski all day, and head for for the show!
