theprogram4 Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Senior year of high school the ski club took a trip to park city. We befriended a bus driver who bought everyone booze and cigarettes. One night driving through town we asked him to run over a stop sign and he actually did it. We all cheered as the bus drove away from the mangled stop sign. It layed on the side of the road the rest of the trip Edited March 1, 2021 by theprogram4 1 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toast21602 Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Salty did you check out any of the mining relics at PC? I think they are off of the Thaynes lift and bottom of Jupiter area.

The town lift is great for a quick lunch stop without having to pay on-mountain prices. Davanza's pizza is like right next to the lift, and used to do a pretty good deal for two slices and a drink with school ID. I assume you still keep your school ID in your wallet for such scenarios, right? 11 hours ago, saltyant said: I wonder what I should demo tomorrow??? This is just for fun just to see what I might buy some day, and to get a feel for some different skis. They say I get to demo 5 but I think 3 will be sufficient. Some ideas below: Nordica Enforcer 94 Volkl Kendos and/or Mantras Head Kore 93 Salomon QST (to be rad like @toast21602 I've learned so much theory about length, width, camber, rocker, material, side cut, turning radius. But I'll probably wind up picking the skis that look coolest. There's several different waist widths on the QST series. You don't want the QST Blank. 10 hours ago, AtomicSkier said: @saltyant whatever you do, demo the size closer to 180, not closer to 170s. Unless it's anything from the Rossi 7 series. Then just get the longest size possible. They're all too short. I've never felt so undergunned on a 195 in my life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
