The five untracked runs the other day here at JH was better than 50 runs down honeymoon waltz at camelwack QFT! The 3 untracked runs down Razor's on this year's powder day are better than a 50 run day down anything at Cameltoe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only work because I need money for life. Work to live not live to work..I do get a nice burst of adrenaline from successfully upselling customers. I'm too scared of outliving my savings... Probably get laid off or force retired before I'm ready to retire. Edited January 30, 2018 by indiggio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary as fuck to keep buying/holding all though that period, but it all worked out in the end. Are you an indexer? How do the bases of your skis look? Any white/grey areas, near the edges? If so a good waxing is in order before you ski Stowe. Yes, I prefer index funds since I'm not a stock picker. Haven't experienced a significant correction yet but I know it's (probably) inevitable. I'll look at my bases and see if I should wax, though I'm too cheap to pay a shop $25 or whatever to do it and I don't have wax or a waxing iron.

Even Enjorales said in his TR that it's comparable to other black runs he's done so far. I bet Cliffhanger was just as good as Razors or Challenge on that Wednesday powder day.

rummy Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 That's the big question, and I don't think I have a good answer for it yet as there are a lot of variables. The longer I stay employed, the more I can tax-shelter money, so there's that factor. Sooner the better of course.Time > $$$Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any days do you have on them? Have they been sharpened. I shouldn't talk because both my pairs of skis have only been waxed and sharpened once so far this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it ever works out logistically, I'll be happy to do yours for nothing. I live near where 22 and 33 intersect in Bethlehem Township and I should ne at CBK most Fridays. If you want to hang in the basement with my asshole cat I can show you how to do everything yourself and lend you some tools/wax/etc. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 17 days on them and made over 400 runs on them without a wax or tune up. I think they're probably good for another 1,000 runs at least. 43 minutes ago, SallyCat said: @saltyantSeriously, I like waxing and deburring/sharpening skis.
