Massive pressure ridges and troughs wracking the nation with weather anomolies!
And we're right in the bullseye of the precipitation! ...
The trough persists through at least the end of January, with no signs of the precipitation relenting! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20241117/c33512b79ed475c648428e17f87c7b4b.jpg

Those Shriffrin turns felt so good

As for me...
Weeeeelllll....
My ski instructor was kind of offbeat but very experienced. I wanted to learn more about the physics fundamentals, and our first lesson was triple point Shiffrin...
So you've got water under your edge experiencing a complex molecular force on a small molecular prism, so the Bernoulli's Principle could drive the pressure of the liquid water to a vaccum.
...
Water's triple point is 4.5 millimeters mercury (mm Hg) pressure and 0.0075°C. This is like having almost a perfect vacuum at barely above freezing point.
So! There is some mysterious, hotly...
Okay, so back to the Shriffrin no-friction conspiracy .
I've finished the book on the skiing triple point that Mikaela might have learned about at her private ski high school.
It explains that...

On that note, this baller positive affirmation banger is good too.
I like these, listening to it like 10x in a row is like gobbling pow from 7am-11am before work just to FEEL SOMETHING

Listening to cheesy positive affirmation songs, and then this absolute banger jam hit so hard:

No worries, I am pretty skeptical myself that it's his conspiracy theory, but that turn felt soo good lol, fun to speculate. I ordered the book on paperback to see what's up.

Wake up babe, new Shriffrin conspiracy theory just dropped ~
My ski instructor claims that Mikaela has mastered the lost art of skiing at water's triple point of 0.01°C and 611.66 Pa.
He says...
Skiing at the Triple Point is definitely a thinghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240330/ca27c3c4966328aab871f814260959ff.jpg

And yes, the Shriffrin turns gave me whole new perspective on pressure control, and so they were absolutely worth the lesson.
Skiing bumps transdimensionally was pretty dang fun too.
But I...
The other interesting thing was this concept of "hyperfluidity". He kind of stalks Mikaela Shiffrin because he has a conspiracy theory that she wins all her races because she knows something the...
The second hour of the lesson was Einstein's Relativity Theory.
We talked about inertial reference frames and how they change and how we anticipate and transition between them. Kind of like,...
I had my "advanced physics" ski lesson at Timberline, and it was great. $350 for 3 hours, and they go into the summer.
Seems like the rabbit hole of Newtonian Mechanics isn't really all that deep...

Hey Barbie babes, I just got back from Aspen, and everyone was wearing pink puffers?
Called it or whut? You heard it here first!...
Thanks for the pro tip! Yeah, all I really understand is that your body's force must balance out the ground's reaction force, and the inclination and angle of your ski makes you turn. But apparantly,...

Not much in Salem. I've had a little luck at Engelburg Antiks, but not much.
Play it Again Sports in Corvalis or Next Adventure Sandy might be your best bets.
