I'm most stoked that Canfield is building bikes again and supporting a localish to me brand. But also on a versatile, modern geo, steel hardtail. It'll be a backup bike for me, might dabble in...

Jeezus Bob, glad you made it out of that one. I was a little ahead of you today. Don’t worry, I’ll be at the Bird to this year, look forward to catching some runs with ya!

My time from GMD to...

I’m sure you’re right. Pathetic.

I haven’t had a pass in LCC the last two years. I went back because I missed it. Now I’m having buyer’s remorse.

The road situation has really gone to shit...

Three people have done it. Fucksticks. Hope they got big tickets.

I’m moving along pretty well now. There’s another bus of the eastbound lane near the powerhouse.

Word per UDOT is I80 eastbound is closed. Good luck Man.




I left Alta around 3 and still haven’t got stick rock not at 615. At a standstill again. JFC

Damn that IS a nightmare. Hope the little guy’s ok.

Good to hear they’re opening up the road. Another UDOT truck just went by going down.

Fuuuuuuuuuck.

Yep. Sheriff and ambulance just went by headed down hill.

Got to Alta at 1. One Collins, three Wildcats, no lines. Poor vis but the snow was good enough that it didn’t really matter. Brought the big nice skis out and did not regret it. 3:40 now and I’m...

Black friday oops!

Looks lot Snowbowl’s expecting 40-50 inches over the next couple days. Git some!

Anyone have any input on whether or not driver style (flat AFD) toe baseplates are swappable with spheric style (weird dual AFD)? All of my 916s have spheric toe AFDs and they kinda suck. They're...

Vegas has some good mountain biking too, about as good St. George IMO, bootleg canyon at Boulder City and some other canyon to the west. Bootleg has a lot gnarly DH trails and shuttles run on...

Snowbowl just got two feet and opened for business today. They can get a lot of snow from southern track storms if the pattern sets up. I know there’s some really good side country terrain but not...

Definitely, he’s the best in town by a lot. Fastest turnaround to. And you can pre schedule on his website.

I made a bending jig out of some galvanized pipe. Rockered a pair of OG Powder Plus with it, and a heat gun. That ski has two sheets of metal pretty much tip to tail. Also used the "reef on it...

Ah damn. Dude was just overflowing, like he was too much for this life.

RIP Tate...

Go-Ride in SLC were running a good deal on Reynolds TR wheels this summer but this is better.

Blacklabel Enduro 28i with i9 torch hubs, Sapim C-Xray spokes.

29- 1750g: $1200

They're also contributing to Olillo's (Snapperhead/Marquette Backcountry Skis) non-profit that connects students with investors to bring products to market.

These are all good things but yeah,...

Nothing to add on the ride but I decided to try the SQ Labs saddles this summer. Generally don't have complaints about saddles on the MTB *except* long fire road climbs would always result in numb...

Dangit, missed this! Already got some this year. Good on ya for doing this 542!

He sells 200-400 pairs/year and turns a profit.

This isn’t about shopping, it’s about a big corporate entity trying to intimidate and destroy small businesses.

Glad you think you’re so smart...

2nd the freeriders, mine are old but too wide for my taste. Giro makes a wide in most of their shoes. The normal ones are narrow though so their wide might nit be *that* wide. The Jacket w and...

This is beyond shitty on the part of backcountry.com. I won't be buying anything from them for the foreseeable future.

It's BLOWING UP my facebook feed right now, like every other post. ...

Ha, true!

Also, def get him a better helmet for next year!

I'd size down. You can make a small boot bigger but you can't make a big boot smaller. Dream Liners are available in three volumes, do you know which you have?

Damn that's a gnarly helmet break! And losing five hours, I did that last year, pretty bad. Glad he doesn't have other injuries too. AC tell Dan to heal up! Good on ya for taking care of his...

Sick build!

How tall are you and what size frame?

Those Speciale 8s do look sweet, might be ticket for my next set.

Looks like MX8s are $130ish these days while the Speciale 8s are $125. I guess I got lucky when I got my MX8s for $85. It was a...

You can check to see if the springs have worn into the pins they k
Lever against. That’ll reduce the spring tension a bit. I remedied it by pushing the pin out enough to rotate it 180 degrees. I...

Meh, don't see what all the fuss is about.

I use whatever width Stan's tape I have lying around, or they have at the shop. Never edge to edge or up the sidewall, though I can see the advantage of...

Totally, had to snub Lacondeguy and give him my people’s choice vote.

Also, I’m an idiot. Totally failed to register the “2020” part of the title. Oh well.

Hightower?

I’d like to see a new Switchblade. Longer, lower, slacker.

Was wondering about that. Is it common for these guys? I guess it could help keep the tire on in theory but obviously didn’t help here. Hella pressure to based on how big it blew up.

Scored well all things considered.

Almost forgot. ZINK! Dude, crushing.

Yeah that was high stakes.

Glad to see Nell finish. That hip case’ll hurt his score. Dang his tire’s flat!

Oh Man. He left it all on the hill for sure. The exposure on that recovery!

He gets my fan fav vote.

So you’ll have a vertically mounted shock?

Keep up the good work, can’t wait to see it.

That’s sick, nice work!

Was it just too much headache to build and tune or does it not ride as well as you’d like?

Me too.

Lacondeguy, over stoked. Not really surprising I guess. He’s such an animal, hope he’s good for another run.

Man Reeder last a lot for that little case. Podium run otherwise.

Do...

The score! Fuck yeah!

That was sick. Brendog!

I mean that was kinda rhetorical but yeah. Kid still kinda came out of nowhere, 29 years old! Sweet!

Semenuk, Man. So tech and smooth.

He nailed it.

Who is Emil Johansson??? Nice run!

Aw man, Zink.

Agree on Brendog’s line, would love to see him win.

Looks calm now.

Let’s do this!

RAMPAGE!

MUCH EXCITE!

Hope they get it rolling soon so I can get a ride in after. Riders and lines are looking so dialed this year!

Deal!

Course my Firebird still does it for me too.

The shock is built by them, custom valved to your weight and style. Can prolly get whatever fork you want? They spec a lot of Magura for their team riders.

Cool company. Father/Son outfit,...

Ancillotti Scarab EVO 29.

Handmade Italian aluminum. You have to go to Italy to get it in person. You ride with them, pick your geometry and measurements, they tune the house built shock for you.
