It's a catch-22. FDA requires expensive drug classification testing that includes animal tests. Rest of the world only requires cosmetic testing which is cheap and many prohibit animal testing, so...

I've mostly converted to Japanese/Korean sunscreens for my face. They seem to be way more comfortable and easier on the skin. Skin Aqua is the brand I typically go with.

Not sure how to do quotes with the current issues.

I got a refund they offered a remount but I passed. I'm in rural mountain Colorado about, close to a small mountain that the fr dimes are perfect...

Should've mounted my own fucking skis...

I just got a pair of new one eighty fr dimes. I don't have a four point one bit or tap and was feeling lazy so took them to a shop. Marshal put on the ski,...

Love that 50/50 layup is the same weight as many brands resort layup

I switched from smith to glade for helmet and googles last year, quality and function has been great.

Kc I saw you're selling you am100s in another thread. What are you thoughts behind that decision?

"The tip and tail shapes are revised from semi-circle to snub-nosed, both as an aesthetic choice in keeping with the rest of the lineup and to support increased performance in soft snow."

I've...

I used sportrx inserrs on smith iox for a few years until my prescription changed and my goggles died. They're good for what they are but limit peripheral and fog easier than no insert. Better than...

These look a lot like the old 4frnt turbo in terms of dimensions weight and profile, which was a ski I really liked during low tide days in CO.

Back on the topic of weight, I'm trying to decide between a 180 or 186 for reserving/once they're back in stock. Skis I have experience with: 184 wildcat 108 which I wish was a bit more stable, I...

Due to previous mount conflicts I have ASYM's currently at +1, I wouldn't recommend it compared to on the line. Knowing how on the line felt +1 forces me to be a little more aware of my balance and a...

The slackline incident was a 4 year old in littleton. Nothing to do with the girl from Boulder the Phish paid tribute to....

I skis the bgs (asym 184) as my pow skis and wc108(184) as my dd. The first couple runs on the bg it took me a bit to figure them out but it's more about having your turn take advantage of the res...

Is the Raven too wide?

He has 154 MVP 94s in stock https://www.praxisskis.com/skis/discount-skis/mvp-94-154-cm-2022-23/

Love the reckoner next to the m102.

How do you choose between the black ops, wildcat and deathwish?

Excited to see touring packs go through a similar evolution with cottage companies that backpacking packs have. I love my SWD backpacking pack with thick shoulder straps and ultra fabric.

The one...

I'd be interested in this too. I plan on getting them to make the morning resort laps more interesting/turnt vs my ravens. They seem they'd also be fun in low angle tight tree skiing.

If Chouinard sold the company for $3 billion he would've had to pay taxes on that income, makes sense, he still would've been up $2.3 billion. Now, sure he still has control of the company but he did...

What monitor are you using? All the 34 inch curved seem to be 1440 and ultrawide. 4k non ultrawide seem to go from 32 to 43.

There's multiple other brands with sowing quality as good or better than Senchi. Superior Fleece has orders open most Mondays. FarpointeOG has regular drops and will do custom orders. Ive been trying...

I had got 3/4 alpha pants made by https://www.farpointeog.com/ the fit/cut feels a bit homemade vs something from norona but they've been working great. 90 weight outside with 60 alpha on the inside...

Added the booster. I'll be testing them out this weekend. The few things I noticed flexing is the strap tilts the loop and pulls to the topbas seen in the 2nd picture. Also the inner...

This is the problem with living in Breck. 50 minutes to be where you want to ski. If you're in a time crunch it's faster driving 30 minutes to a basin.

Get the goats. I have a wildcat 108 as my daily so pretty similar to an artis. They do not even come close to skiing fresh powder or resort chop the way Goats do. Goats are so much easier to...

Has anyone with this boot tried replacing the power strap with a cam strap. I just personally hate dealing with velcro in the field. I'm debating ordering the Hoji Free strap and swapping that out. I...

The WNDR vital comes in a 155 length. My wife whose 5 ft has been liking it so far after only snowboarding the last 18 years.

If you have an unregistered email you can PM me I can send you a $40 off code. That's what they're currently offering for the "refer a friend program"

I mounted these and skied them 30+ days last season and never noticed the nipple until this thread. The texturing of the ski makes it really hard to notice in person. I get being against the old exit...

I haven't ski'd the PB&J, but the 108 Feels extremely agile and light. Personally I wouldn't want anything lighter or with less suspension. They make my Billy Goats and Armada park skis both feel...

I don't think this is a valid reason to be against any level of abstraction. I cannot read assembly and could not create a new kernel, but it doesn't concern me. I've found containers to be far...

As a reference I find my NanoAir too hot for touring unless it's below 5f, but the R1 tech perfect. I almost always have a 100 weight longsleeve wool base on and not a t-shirt though.

Why does this short gap in the trees keep getting used for a pole measuring contest? Is it supposed to be the east coast version of Corbets? I'm sure there's a better ski-off run out there.

The Tech is less insulated feeling than the standard R1, but has a solid amount of wind resistance.It's also just not as tight to the skin in general, and with a full zip I can open it up a bit more...

All my work is Azure, but these were my starting points. ...

It's a flash review of a prototype they road. They call out the hoji line is going for raven as a tour ski, hoji as a 50/50 in bound/resort and ren as the pow ski. I hope they keep the Raven light i...

Sorry just catching up on this thread:


She's stuck to snowboards since 15. Did try some kids race boots but did not enjoy them.



No punches, There were a couple pads added to the front of...

I find the guide on newschoolers addresses all these concerns well, and I've had a good number of inbounds days on the shift without any issues.
1. The manual is "correct" but as the newschoolers...

This is not even the worst product shown today. Elan is now making a folding ski:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RImPw0a38rU&feature=youtu.be

Here's the wifes small feet. As a note the app made her stand so wide compared to her height, I'm pretty sure she collapsed her instep.

Bootfitting makes no sense to me. I typically use Larry out of boulder and currently fit great into a pair of Lange RX 120 26.5s.

Kid-Kapow,
You previously had the Wildcat 108 as well right? How would you compare the MFree 108 to the Wildcat 108?

I have three 1inch long rips on the side of a coat from flying across some rocks. The rips did not make it through to the inner layer, so taping the outside and then sealing from the inside is not an...

I had this problem. The chat button was in the lower right, but did not appear when I was on keystoneresort.com and only appeared when i accessed the reservation site through epicpass.com.

StompIt tutorials would be the closet equivalent I can think of, but more targeted towards newschoolers than tgr style of skiing:

I have Ravens and I enjoy them in all back country conditions. They're super fun in low angle powder, which is most of my mid winter touring. They also handle spring conditions well enough. When I've...

I think this has more to do with what the market is demanding. What Cody considers a "short" tour is typical of over half the people looking for a touring binding. I'd say a large majority of people...

This is awesome. Are any of them going to be in Summit or any other Mountain town, or all on the Front Range?
