    lets face it, if your not thik skinned and dont like bacon, this aint the place for you ...

    I like how we are all from different professions and life skills, as a result somebody can always come up with the facts, while others make me laugh alot ...

    its like a 1stop shop for me ... snowboard, ski , sled ... my life is complete ...
    We, the RATBAGGERS, formally axcept our duty is to trigger avalaches on all skiers ...

    We had EC'ers seeing Tahoe storms and dropping everything to get there - and reporting it real time.

    Summit reports showing how real and how close a web-based community could get.


    Ridiculous "remember it your whole life" level hilarity from guys like phunk and Rev and bad roo.

    MD9/GT40 photo sets that pushed stoke back before iPhones and go pros made it too easy.

    It was a really cool place.

    I went away for a few years and came back to something really different.

    Most of what made it great back then is gone. That'll prove itself out by the bitchy responses to what I'm saying here.

    It's too bad. A lot of you newer guys really missed out.

    Now I just come around to sell gear. Still the best place to do that.

    +1, absolutely

    I haven't met anyone through this place and very rarely PM, but when I do it has always been worth it.

    Is there a better place to hang while at work for dentists of a certain age?

    oh, and I have a serious unrequited crush on KQ for I think ten years or so - lol! I don't think I am the only one

    There is one person here who rarely posts anymore that I despise from my time at TT. It's not you riser! hahahahahahahahahahaha

    ice is half right thow that people have been bitching about it forever. or likely forever, I'm not as old as him, he probably remembers complaints about the wheel and all the havoc it was bringing.

    Its just the characters from the ski hill bar, the ski store, a chair lift, that place in the woods where we smoke left hand cigarettes all rolled together which is really just wasting time in a pleasant way ... don't take it too seriously

    As I remember it I do a run with buddy, he rips pretty good so we kept skiing till last chair, then we go to the bar for beers where we start swapping lies and BS, at some point there is a 10 sec of silence and we simultaneously exclaim ... your XXX-er-/ your garyfromterrace

    Made the transfer from lurker to more full time poster thanks to this being part of my day job somehow and have enjoyed it immensely. Have had great buying and selling experiences and met many mags in the real world. A truly great community and one that supports each other in real ways when not bitching about trivial things. Have gained much from advice of all kinds here and love the commentary on all sorts of shit I suck at, from carpentry to stock tips to whatever. Also tye one on buys me a drink very time I see him even though I'm the one tht owes him

    He never did, he just knew it felt good when he put ice on it, and a legend was born.

    I still don't get how you have the better part of 22k posts. You really are a fucking loser.

    No. You just run your mouth, and have no reason to.

    Keep up the good work though! You are obviously killing it at life.

    And yes. Every forum is full of pathetic "old" members who bitch about "how good things used to be". When in fact you have been here 2 years longer than I, and it's the same as it was 5 years ago IMO. However, I don't spend near as much time here as you, so there's that.

    It's just the internet. Calm yourself.
