AtomicSkier Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 My *only* apprehension about doing this is my Atomic race skis. If it's SL, I'll snag a pair of Racetigers so I can mount PX15's on them. I just don't feel safe with the pre-releases I've had on them. Anyone want to buy a pair of WC SL:12s? Quote

AtomicSkier Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 just do it on your pe's LOL, my PE's are noodles now. Discipline would make all the difference. If it's GS, I *could* ski my Mantra's, but if I'm going to race, I'm going to do it right, just the way I roll. I'm there to win Quote
mbike-ski Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Posted December 17, 2010 j-style can give a better description of the sets i'm sure but it was a slalom in the past, some nights set looser/modified but certainly much closer to sl than gs this year on razor's who knows Quote

My race suit hasn't been worn in a while...hmmm. If you need me, count me in. I'll figure out the ski situation. Quote
toast21602 Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 I'm kinda excited for this... I don't really have any skis to use though. I'll figure it out. Quote
AtomicSkier Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 I'm awaiting JS's opinion on radius requirements. I know he bought an 18m for use with Nastar/tighter then 24m sets. Mbike...was it single slalom breakaways, or where they flagged when you raced last time? Quote
toast21602 Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 Wait mike is making this sound laid back and you are doing all this race talk. I just want to ski hard, hit some gates,and drink some beers... Quote
mbike-ski Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Posted December 17, 2010 cool, were in! they were single breakaways - i remember cuz the first race was the first time i had ever run a set like that and had no idea how to block - my face and shoulder did not work very well Wait mike is making this sound laid back and you are doing all this race talk. I just want to ski hard, hit some gates,and drink some beers... thats what its all about! Quote
AtomicSkier Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 cool, were in! they were single breakaways - i remember cuz the first race was the first time i had ever run a set like that and had no idea how to block - my face and shoulder did not work very well Nothing like mowing down slalom gates. The best way to ski slalom is to be stuck in a traffic jam on the way to the mountain, get really pissed, and just fckin mow 'em down. Johnny should be an olympic slalom skier by now But I do enjoy slalom. I always second guess myself on flushes though. I raced an SL at Mountain Creek with a triple flush to the finish line. WTF. And no...we're there to win. Everyone must wear their speed suits! Quote
Johnny Law Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 If it's on Razor's, my guess is that they'll set below the first headwall, and run down to the real finish line. My race suit hasn't been worn in a while...hmmm. If you need me, count me in. I'll figure out the ski situation. I have a pair of 170something rc4's if you need them. I'd say they are in between a gs and sl ski so perfect for most beer league stuff. Quote
mbike-ski Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Posted December 17, 2010 team paskiadride.com '11 jstyle ajeff switch toast nasty glenn mbike 1 more roster spot open, mr law? Quote

Johnny Law Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 1 more roster spot open, mr law? I would but my wife works most Mondays late, I would hate to commit and then leave you guys hanging. Quote
toast21602 Posted December 17, 2010 Report Posted December 17, 2010 john you still have snowblades, right? those should make quick enough turns. nah but i'll look for a pair of bigfoots Quote
