Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 1, 2018 Report Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) Regular yard sale. Taught me to tighten my helmet strap as a helmet should not be ten feet away from you after a fall. I was done for the day after that one. Felt like Charlie Brown after a line drive. Edited March 1, 2018 by Ski2Live Live2Ski 1 Quote

Expand Guitar isn't a very aggressive skier and he's light. Yeah you're right SaltyPecker...The RTMs are the hot Jackson hole ski...even Olympic downhill gold medalist Tommy Moe skis the RTMs. Edit: STFU GSS it's march 1st not April 1st you wanker. 1 Quote

I find skiing fast to be a lot easier. The one low visibility day in Jackson hole was way more tiring because I couldn't let my skis run and was throwing them sideways a lot more. Expand Yeah, skiing faster is easier. I like turning my skis and working on technique, always room for improvement. Quote

If Salty clicked into any pair of skis, they'd be immediately denounced. I ski RTMs but for some reason I don't get the shit-stream of abuse that he gets even though I'm just as annoying and also stole a PASR's parking spot. #RTMs4lyfe 1 Quote

momskeeztoo Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 Why do you think they'll be closed for the season? They are supposed to get snow. Quote

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Expand At 5’9” and not an advanced skier, 170 actually isn’t a bad length. Except that I’m really fat. My current skis are 172 and I don’t feel like I miss any extra length. I wish weather had been nicer for demo day, I wanted to try some longer skis. Edit: I don’t know why the part about being fat is bigger than everything else. Appropriate tho Edited March 2, 2018 by enjoralas 1 Quote
