Yeah the 27 in the peak was too short and the 28 had wayyy to much space even in the shop. Maybe I could have gotten it to work with a thick liner and some bontex but not going to go that route when...

What comparable boot exists to the skorps by the way? The shop had me a try a zero g peak which felt lighter but also not really in the same class? The new Dynafit ridge boot maybe?

I caved and bought version 2s locally paying full price plus sales tax.the la Sportiva importer here will fix the version 1s, so once I get these punched and the V1s fixed, all will once again be...

I've broken the version one tongues twice. The first time I blame on skiing in the cold, the second time was totally related to inattention and carelessness getting in and out of the boots.

I've gotten a broken pair myself. Anyone have experience swapping the tongues themselves?

I'm sure it's a useful metric if one is used to communicating wind conditions in that way, I just have only ever hear it used regularly in the tetons. Does anywhere else use wind run (thanks for the...

Does anywhere use "miles of wind" as a metric besides the tetons?

I end up locking them out if I'm really kicking steps in on steeper, icy slopes but honestly never even think about it anymore for general touring

Only one catastrophic failure over hundreds and hundreds of days with several sets of bindings. My favorite characteristics of the bindings include the low ramp and the ability to skin...

Oh as if I needed another existential crisis in my life. let me lose sleep tonight debating if I should size up to a 28 or not and send you a pm. I'm in Europe, but can sort out shipping to the US.

Well I've come full circle since starting this thread and have developed another crack in the tongues of my V1s which might signal the end of their usable life span. Super happy with them after...

Oh, duh! Thank you, sir

I guess I'm shitty at math and/or spatial visualization, but this conundrum seems to be causing me more anguish than it should.

I have a pair of old blizzard peacemakers with pivots which need a...

Lol at the link to the "pdf" with their "extensive data." I wonder just how infected with propaganda my phone is after downloading that

Yes, need to remember early registration this week.

I couldn't really get into Reunions either.

Any word on how it's holding up?

Heading home end of the month and would love a few summer turns

Agreed. Really like that approach and the language they used.

Wow. Outstanding work and documentation

I'm seeing great deals on the 185 104. Is this one fun enough on piste for a fuck around ski for a small resort, or should I keep looking for a 96?

Lee's gotten beauty days today and yesterday!

Shout if you get an extra day after the boat Was out of town for the weekend but have an extra sled in LYB

Once AI takes over most computer-based work, I wonder what impacts we'll see in other labor markets like the trades

Yeah I'm 6'1" 170 lbs and wonder if they're too short. Might just give em a try though. Thanks for the reply!

Thinking about the 96 in a 184. How're you liking that model?

Wow, love the paper edition but never checked it out online. Thanks for that, HMS!

Great list, thanks. I'm in euroland which makes scalping old cheap skis troublesome, but i do appreciate the offer!

Perhaps Jeff 102s are the ticket?!

If other old men wanted a "park ski" for cruising resort laps in hard snow but also threatening to occasionally hit flat boxes and the very smallest jumps in the park what would we look for?

Line...

Word. Emailed a couple shots and if nothing will try the warranty route. Worst case is to just buy a sale pair, otherwise been happy with the bindings for three years so can't really complain

Hope you made it until you were home, jtran!

I managed to continue ignoring the issue beyond posting about it (shocker!), and today managed to snap the torx screw holding the tower onto the...

Ok, i laughed!

We're likely a week out from him texting dick pics anyway.

Hold onto the jersey. I'm stoked (years later) to have favre/ packers shit from growing up.

It's weird for sure. I was SO Into Rodgers earlier on, but felt like something broke in that NFC...

I'll second the 85 UL being a nice, predictable ski for the weight. I prefer progressively mounted skis, am skiing these on the line and am not experiencing any notable issues in anything but...

Agreed. Great writing, really enjoyed that. Thanks!

I'm in the same boat. This season seemed to drag. From an entertainment perspective, it's time to move on.

Good to hear! How so?

I am actually in Davos for the weekend and next week working unless there's a day that can't be missed (maybe Monday). Great snow quality today with marginal visibility and cautious skiing since I'm...

Still the gold standard.

Is the 100" storm segment from Team 13 floating around as well?

Still looks like a "dump" for Davos by my admittedly low standards coming from a polar desert...

I ski in skorpius size 27,5 (my normal size) in a cold climate. Or it at least used to be cold. I do think these are cold boot, i have never had issues with Cold feet touring, but i do get a bit cold...

Race coaches in grip walk boots that won't ski other bindings?

I'm in p18s at 11 strictly for durability. Have broken multiple baseplates, however.

But what about a Honda Fit (Jazz here in Europe) vs a used Ioniq? That's my dilemma at the moment. The only thing holding me back is the more limited range on ioniqs at our price point (the 28kwh...

Coming into Davos mid-next week.

I'm happy to drink beers on sunny decks, but I hope for your guyses ski season, glacier health, and water availability that a big storm materializes!

For a minute there it almost looked like i needed to think about packing goggles.

One of the best weeks of my life living up there, a total dream world. Enjoy!

Nice. Ryounkaku?

I do like the measurements Friflyt posts with set back and such, but they definitely have a bias towards easy to ski, friendly skis. I always thought K2 was a preferred Friflyt brand (maybe due to...

But it might change the fatality rate.
