How is this done?

I have set a user name for the forum. When I log in to my profile it shows that user name, but I can't use that user name to login, and it doesn't display in the forums.

I had the same problem. It was a real nightmare. I had to PM rontele to sort it.

I'm looking forward to the photos of your mum you JONG

**LandLockedPirate** · 01-19-2017, 11:15 PM

Finally made an account after years of just poaching y'alls knowledge via the interwebs. I'm the best mediocre skier on any mountain.

I suspect I won't post very much because honestly I'm not sure what I could contribute that someone else couldn't say better, but I guess I'll make an effort now.

**Monoteleskier** · 01-23-2017, 01:55 PM

First post, I'm here for the Oregon and PNW threads.

That's a pretty funny username, just sayin'.

**Monoteleskier** · 01-23-2017, 02:15 PM

Thanks dude, I thought of it while I was skinning on a splitboard.

**Wise Guy** · 01-23-2017, 10:45 PM

Had an account years ago, but forgot email password and such. So I guess it is round 2 for an account. Without sounding like a tinder account, I ski White Pass mostly. I Tele ski, even though I know that no one cares. but since I Tele I must tell you that I do (thats the way we work

). Ok in all seriousness if your at White Pass and want to ride ninja lines in the trees and tour to get away from the crowds let me know.

**Lederhosen** · 01-27-2017, 12:35 PM

Long-time lurker. Older dude, who's been lucky to have skied in many places around the world. Lived in Europe most of the past 20 years, but recently moved back to the states (Los Alamos, NM).

Hi. I'm new here. Been skiing since 2012 mostly out east so probably intermediate. Can ski single blacks and blues and some doubles back east. Im 6'2 220 lbs and ski a rossignok experience 83 back east. Am going to powder mountain Utah mid February for 8 days. Was there last year and loved it. I rented the dps wailers 112 from them but it's like 70 per day. So this year was thinking of buying a slightly used or new pair. What do u guys recommend ? I was leaning toward the lotus but didn't want to get something too wide. Are carbon bindings worth it ? Is it a better skiing experience w them ? Also would be cool to get something I can also use back east but that performs equally well on powder.

Dps wailer 112 brand new w salomon bindings 184 cm

Dps lotus 120 slightly used w dynafit vertical carbon bindings 178 cm

Dps wailer 99 w salomon bindings slightly used 189 cm

Thank you very much !!!!

I recommend you show us some tits. Your girlfriend, wife, or sister please.

And buy yourself some Rossignol soul 7's. They are the pinnacle of design and performance. This year's even have hd branding on them. You'll be amazed at how well they ski everything. Not only that, they will have you fighting off strange pussy all night because women will throw themselves at you after seeing your skills on the mountain. They practically ski the steeps for you.

Now, tits or gtfo, JONG!

**TBS** · 01-29-2017, 09:09 PM

^^^Excellent advice although you neglected to mention TECH TALK JONG

**Fatwalnut** · 01-30-2017, 02:57 PM

First post, I'm here to chill, hopefully learn a few things, and also to buy stuff. Thanks for having me
