Wait you're saying you would RATHER ski the 108 in the afternoon of a tracked out powder day???? grotesque

just spent two days in a tlt7 performance and quite enjoying it. got em for $200 with two days on em soooo hard to complain but my thoughts on fit are - i have a 110mm forefoot and sixth toe that...

Always love your attention to detail, Thom

Crazy though! Protests are unsinkable for most ppl, while I've found Quixotes and GPO's more willing to submarine on me than bibbys, bgs, etc.... I'd say...

Sorry bout the injury

Whoops. But still stoked on these pantaloons. Thanks micol and wrg

Appreciate all of the input.

Just making sure I wasn’t missing anything about Corvallis. Obviously HR and Bend are a completely different story. I went to school in Portland and skied all four...

Can you elaborate on the ‘activities’? Spoiled as I’m used to driving 15 minutes to a backcountry ski trailhead and 5 mins to a bougie grocery store

My wife has a professional opportunity in Corvallis. Any reason to take the loaded gun away from my head?

I have a transferrable skill set and I'm sure I can find a job. Right now, though, I ski...

1 lounger por favor - thanks for putting this together

Big time! What’s better than a couple laps of consistent blower for 2500 feet? Consistent blower when you’re expecting dust on crust

Out the door now for more

Last weekend I got to the top of a moderately trafficked backcountry run outside of mammoth for our third lap. Guy and his buddy say ‘can we follow your tracks?’

After a fair bit of conversation...

I picked up the mountain hardware polartec alpha vest (kor strata, I think??) for super cheap this year. I wear it with a merino baselayer or thin sun hoody for early morning skinning. Down to about...

I had a pair of bd poles with a rubber grippy down below the handle for sidehilling. I HATED the way it felt in my hand, so wrapped athletic tape (same as hockey tape or bat tape) around it. It was...

Doebedoe- stoked for ya. I’d take seriously the training for downhills and keep in mind that skiing MAY give you an advantage in handling eccentric loads. I am also not a racer but can run downs...

Fool - that would be my go to if the biggest work event of the year weren’t that weekend.

I've done this. September is a totally doable time frame for a 50k. Second the uphill athlete book - lays out training basics nicely.


FWIW - I'm planning to ramp to a 50 miler around that time...

my wife bought a food dehydrator that goes to 175. suuuper temp stable, cost like $100. Haven't used it to heat liners but have cooked leather gloves and the like so far

They had staff skiing 10 end of day yesterday but it never opened - also thought that was odd. Yeah ridge was closed but the terrain directly beneath it was open. Hadn’t experienced that before but...

Waiting for a buddy at the trailhead this morning and reminiscing yesterday. Freshies all day at the wood. Skied pretty darn bottomless except over cliffs. Not many photos as we skied bell to bell...

I wouldn’t bet on it jorion. Looks like about 2 feet at foothill when coming down Carson pass yesterday. Looked at it and though ehhhhh almost but probably not? And I definitely err on the side of...

not a huge deal at all. in the same motion that one would release or retract the brakes, you turn the heel 180. Turns super easy, doesn't turn when you don't want it to. You can do it while ripping...

when this weds-thurs storm disappears on tuesday, blame vail. having to reserve weekdays is like actively jinxing that shit every time someone books one

I beg to differ. The voyager does NOT ski like a kingpin or any other binding with an alpine style heel. I have about 14 days on voyagers, probably 40 on kingpins, and two on a friend's tectons.

I think you’d like the bmt’s, Thom. Traditional mount, can be driven but also quite loose. A style that gets along with gpo’s transfers quite directly.

yyyup I'm touring on bmt 122's - they definitely are another level of float compared to gpo's and the like in the bc. they make days where avalanche terrain is not in the plan fun by how well they...

If the determining factor is pin insertion depth into the fitting, a binding with elasticity in the heel won't change whether you should set the depth at 4mm or decrease by a mm because of the spur...

Bobcat- at that size no reason not to go 190 inbounds - super easy to throw around. If I want to rage I want a dw rather than wc108


Sent from my iPhone using TGR Forums

yup - on the line you can still ski directionally just fine. if it's for pow, -1 will let you drive the tips a bit more though for your size it's gonna want a more neutral stance in soft anyway
