Still remember the first on3p thread from a decade ago and finally pulled the trigger on a pair of Jeffrey 110s. Can't wait to get them out. Hoping they become the non-touring daily driver.

Got a slightly older pair, 2016 I believe. Would sell for cheap with or without intuition liners. Still in decent shape. If interested pm and I'll send over some pics.

4frnt customer service claims the raven is unchanged this year. Interested to see if that is the case, considering I have a pair coming in the mail and would rather not receive noodles.

I've loved my first few days on the ski (187s, 5'10'' 160) Easy to pop off small features, quick to turn, stable when you need to go fast in soft snow. A more playful renegade (my favorite ski...

Is the assumption that vibeveil is pure ski industry marketing non-sense? Or has anyone tried it out and found a tangible improvement in chatter reduction? I never felt that the Ren needed...

I mounted the blue 187s on the line (87.5 from tail) and I'm happy with the decision. Couldn't imagine going much forward or back either.

Will add a review after I get a few more days on them,...

Whis on the 19th, BC on the 26th via WBtwitter.

If you sell the 187 hojis I'd be interested...

bump.

Damn you.

Someone buy those renegades. Great deal.

How about those hoji's on the rack? Any interest moving them...

I love these skis. Against my better judgement I dragged them 5 hours into the backcountry for some decent snow this week. On the uphills I was definitely craving my set-up that is half as light,...

So I've played around with my set of these as well, albeit in a slightly different manner, but long story short, the tongues pop out easily for longer tours. Big improvement in forward range of...

so owl topsheets only?

waist deep, heavy pow... check.

got a slow start to the day, but certain areas on blackcomb were holding snow really well in the afternoon... very pleasantly surprised today.

for 186, original recommended mounting spot was 88 from tail, then it switched to 87 if you are touring a lot, some people went as far back as 86 if you prefer a more traditional mount. i went 87.5...

I don't find them hard to ski or overly demanding either, haven't felt like they are too stiff once. This is due to the quickness that full reverse camber provides, in my opinion. I also haven't...

anyone else find you kinda bounce out of landings in pow due to the reverse camber? Kinda fun sensation, but a tad of an adjustment.


edit: not that this was a smooth landing anyway......

makes sense, a cm or 2 back from my mount. i found it was good to keep the shins on tongues, but if i pushed to hard I thought they lost something. thus a slightly more neutral stance is working...

where did you mount them bird?

for the most part, but the rens are a bit more of a soft snow ski for me, so lhasas would win out on long dry spells. obviously, many people swear by the lhasa and ride them every day, fresh snow or...

Yep, I've got carbon 186 lhasas from a few years back now. great skis, super light touring set up, but i ended up not loving the pin tail/big tip combination. what i ended up finding with them, is...

well, first weekend on the 186 rens, mounted with dukes...

this was definitely the ski i wanted. I primarily ski the whistler area and I wanted a ski that would not get overpowered by heavy...

random bump of an old thread... anyone have the measurements of the screws for 1st gen dukes? picked up a pair on craigslist for cheap, but no screws. thanks.

welp, i just bought a pair of second gen rens because of this thread...

no surfing in vancouver... gotta head to tofino on the island, which is a doable, but long weekend.

plenty of options to get up to whistler from ubc, i assume its the same at sfu.

skin from lot, plenty of base for laps. was up there yesterday.

my -12 to -14 has always been fine in huts (waddington included) but it was pretty chilly in the tent a few weekends back. I'd say if you are planning on using your tent often, you won't regret...

vespas... dumb and dumber style.

Anyone have the story on this decker incident?

http://www.cnn.com/video/?hpt=hp_c3#/video/us/2012/05/13/dnt-seattle-skier-rescued.ctv

where are you located?

Rooting for Keegan. He played on my high school team, so now I can say I'm a state champion when I'm 10 over after 9 holes.

3 of us were in the trees up on Hollyburn last night as well. Probably about an hour back of steventy. Great snow everywhere from the random mid-day blizzard they must have got. Always nice to get...

usps>fedex>>>>ups

nice work curtis.

Completely agree on the route finding (my preferred route is to the right), but just curious if you've ever seen the main lines slide? I've never noticed debris, but if they ever ran to the bottom...

3dwhistler.com can help you get the lay of the land a bit.

whiskey.

don't bootpack in powder with the top latch undone completely. Thats the only way I've ever got snow in there and it was completely my own fault. I also normally just lock in to the binding, lean...

forecast looks like Tuesday could either build a hell of a base, or get awfully wet. Tons of precip on its way.

I was also thinking, a shallow snow pack often time makes people think, "oh this won't slide, not deep, etc." when in reality, not only can it slide, but it also is breaking up the snow pack. Before...

I just have a question for people familiar with the terrain where the slide occurred...

In the last photo, showing the location of the crown/chute/final location of jp, how much of that rock would...

Also of note on the avi related side of things... we didn't see any slides on sproatt yesterday, but it was snowing heavily and getting windloaded on the northern aspects. On the way out, in a safe...

hmm, rumors. do I need to mount my inbounds rock skis up tonight, or can I hold off til next week? I can't imagine this weekend would be in play.

That is fattwins place and it is apparently sold out. Spent a bit more than a month there last year and had a great time, met lots of great people. Would love to do it again in the future.

But...

The past couple years there has been easily accessible touring in late October/early November, so odds are you will be pretty solid. Unfortunately, you never really know until a few days before...

email was sent and quickly replied to, so thanks for that. Now decision time.

i swear the speed limit on parts of i90 is 75 or 80 around south dakota. Easily, the top 5% of drivers are going more than 6mph over, which would put them on this list.

Very true. I love mine, but a lot of people find the heel pocket way too big. For me that wasn't the case and they are plenty stiff enough, so I was happy. Very similar to a full tilt/flexon feel....

I would just note that if you find NZ expensive, you will find Canada (BC) very expensive. At least that has been my experience spending 6 months in christchurch and now 5+ years in british...
