I ended up going with Aspen Total Automotive for $100+ tax. Aspen Tire and Detail said $120

My older Lofoten pro bibs (2017?) are pretty shredded at the cuff. The actual cuff material is pretty thick, but not a lot of extra backing behind that. BUT I'm in a medium (6', 170) that fit long on...

I wouldn't say I'm full-XC but I like to ride fast and on leaner tires. I started running a Ground Control T7 2.35 as my rear on my Izzo last year, with a Dissector 2.4 up front. I'm riding mostly...

Buddy of mine is a Salomon athlete and got a pair in February. He basically said they’re good combo of the 118 and Blank, but more towards the 118. He does rip upright and centered though

It’s super solid and Gary’s been great to work with. I started talking to him in 2018 or 2019 about one, but then the school didn’t want to drop $14k at that time. Now we need it and it’s pretty...

Nearest installer is always in Eagle/Avon and quotes $200 to install.

I’ve bought like 10 sets from Tire rack over the years. Used to pay under $100 installed at shops that are now quoting $150+...

Dont think I can get out today, but hopefully some laps this weekend. This afternoon/evening will be a full full slush fest!

Anyone have a shop in the valley that doesn't rip you off for...

We've had a Lolo 4-bike rack here at the school for a few years and it's been great. I just purchased another to go on on the back of this sweet new hauler:

Massive massive positive vibes coming your way!!!

My wife went from a 21/22 178cm Atris Birdie to the 22/23 178 Atris and besides the new shape, doesn't seem to feel a difference. Those two are slightly different skis, but prior to the 22/23 "new"...

What? Over?
Did you say 'over'?
Nothing is over until we decide it is!
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Hell no!..

The official debut wasn’t until this afternoon/evening. Some chucklehead at Forbes posted it too early and then they had to retract

I think it is, but you feel the 110 waist and the longer radius+torsional stiffness compared to the Atris. Wasn’t totally my jam, coming from
a few hundred days on the Atris, but it wasn’t that much...

I'm trying to help a buddy sell his late 80's Skamper 080S that's been sitting on blocks for a decade+. It looks pretty rough from the pics, but I'd aim to clean it up cosmetically. I'm not sure if...

New 4Runner got leaked a little early today by a Forbes post. Official Toyota debut is this afternoon. Nothing radical but I can't say I love the look

The Bowl just opened at 10:20. Solid 3-4”+ refresh up in DT and above. Had to bail to go meet the fam at Ajax but the bowl should be good (and cold) all day today. Lots of variable wind effect...

Scored a good one this morning: I rolled into Highlands around 9:30 after two weeks off skis and managed to walk up to the Bowl as they dropped the gate with no one else in sight. It was gusting to...

Noted, thank you. Damp, for this category, is probably the wrong term. Maybe just more planted and predictable, adding in some metal versus just fiberglass on the Camox. I’ve been Bonafide/M6 curious...

Looking at a 186 Rustler 9 to replace my 186 Camox that I've decided to move on from. The Camox has been fun but it's not composed enough when pushed in bumps/chop. I don't think a Mantra or similar...

That's sweet and funny - I grew up in Edmonds and my family is still there. Had a good friend who drove a Red 850-T5 that we loved to rally around in HS. He's still in Edmonds and bought his parents...

I run a 2-bike RockyMounts on a 2” receiver I installed on our Alltrack. A 4-bike rack wouldn’t be totally ideal off pavement, but the clearance should be about the same as your Allroad

Acura TSX wagon was out there for a while, but no AWD and not super luxurious compared to a high-trim Subaru.

I had an LL Bean Outback and the Alltrack that we have now matches that level of...

Pretty standard outcome for Spring Break, but that’s life. Not too bad down here

Im hearing that Ajax was off the charts and a ghost town. Damn

He’s been stacking vert the last few seasons up in PNW and now BC. I think mostly because there’s more accessible, season-long touring and steep skiing available compared to CO. But maybe also to get...

Looks pretty good boys; jealous!

Same same. We were right on the finish line and the swing in emotions amongst the crowd was real. Dude is champion and made .50 sec disappear out of nowhere on the bottom of the course

The 5.3 4x4 is rated at 22mpg highway with RUG, which tops GX, 4R and all other full-size competitors besides €€€ diesels. We are still GX shopping because of the size and the lack of miles I plan to...

Tim at Ptex up in Billings was selling the 181 for $575 as part of his close out sale in GS a few weeks back. Worth an ask

Sick! I saw his stories and thought that was you/ a mag. Ross is the man!

Late is well into double digits
Damaged is low double digits
Wrong item is single digits

We order 10-20 items a month. Get a lot of refunds and credits for all this shit. My wife just got a $70...

Pretty freaking stupid, but I guess that’s what he was going for??

I ended up grabbing some Nikwax Tech wash for $5.47 shipped. Wash yer gear!

Bump. Ended up picking up some 193cm Racetiger GS r27m with mint 997 Drivers on them. Skied them this week (my first time on a "race" ski) and damn were they fun. Super super fun and not demanding....

Last seen on Highway 82 heading from Glenwood Springs towards Aspen.

I kept pace with it upvalley in a 77 passenger Freightliner bus… so the inline 4 may or may not be struggling to hit that...

Damn, that's almost as LIT as this tricked out 20y/o Corolla I saw this week. All the style and swagger of an autobauhn cruiser or Neuspeed parking lot queen, but with the...

We took a lap down Ozone and it was good. Groomers were very fun on my first new ski in a decade. Didn’t ski off-piste besides the Bowl but fun day all around

Sweet, yeah we hit up Boat Tow on Friday with friends in town. Decent food and decent prices

Totally agree with this. Our boys ski a lot and continue to blow us away with their competency and motivation for skiing, but it’s really more about being outside and doing “something” each day.

Just had to ski faster, right?!

Groomers were fun yesterday up high; great turns down Copper at 2pm, which is rare. But off-piste was refrozen crud in a lot of places all day. Highlands today,...

I mean... at least in my neck of the woods we have clowns DDing a $700k SF90 with a Thule box on top to go skiing, so this kinda silliness would seem up his alley.

We have something similar here at Highlands that SkiCo started this year. $2,500 for up to 10 people for early access to the Bowl. SkiCo has at least owned it and publicized it, unlike what appears...

I might try. I managed a VX lap with the boys a few weeks ago and still made my bus route by 9:45

100%. (and a super on his way out)

No more delays, only real snow days that are warranted. I drive a school bus every day in all conditions. The “safety” argument for delayed starts is massively...

1”….

Full-on GenZ/Millennial cringe. The sag is real.

The assimilation into the Aztek life continues. And to think the fanbois didn't see this coming...
