This site seems to be working better than it was last week

I can log in again

uglym- Thanks for sharing the trip report and video. (nice WSP selection)

Harry- Hope you are doing better, and recover quickly!

Fernie started out rainy this morning and cooled off with some wind during the day to dry out some of the snow.

Fun day, overall

Wish I could be there, bummed I cannot make either the Troll for demo day or Lutsen for the gathering

This weekend forecast looks like spring like weather in northern WI, have fun all

Nice! PM forthcoming

Quote function is fried

TAFKALVS- No current Castle info I know of, but... a friend that lives in Fernie told me today the mountain has a great base, and past two days were spring conditions at...

I will be in Fernie with family and friends March 10 - 15, usually get a Castle visit while there.

Would enjoy meeting up with Fernie peeps if anyone is around

The artwork at the tip of that vehicle seems to suggest something

Skied at Cascade with Ima gapper this afternoon, sun came out and the snow was soft slush. Some mellow turns and a beer to close the day... perfect

Thanks, Ima

edit: oh yeah, Ima shared...

I think Jag2 is a TGR oldtimer and one of the Tyrol usual suspects

^^^ Damn, what the hell? This happened yesterday? I was there for a couple of hours and did not witness any commotion. Yesterday was sunny and warm, absolutely beautiful

Hey Ima- Let me know your eta for the Madison area Thursday. I might be able meet you at Devils Head or Cascade after 12:30pm. That said, my lack of mental fortitude prevents me from skiing more than...

I really appreciate the generous offers but I cannot make it this upcoming week... I have meetings on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday

Dammit! Going to miss the Lutsen gathering and demo day at Troll edit- that is not the post I quoted, replace the box fan already tried to quote naedward81 about demo day at Troll

Exchanging emails with ON3P I learned about flex regarding the veneer...

QuoteOne other quirk. With a wood veneer - like your 108s - to account for the stiffer flex the veneer adds to the ski,...

Metatarsal pad on custom orthotics was the solution to my Morton's neuroma. It was uncomfortable at first, but the person making the orthotics kept sanding the pad down, little by little, until it...

I've replaced the Smith Z-bend broken baskets from aluminum poles with some Swix baskets and ferrules.

Checked the Swix site today and didn't see the ferrules available but the baskets were.

Hey mang! Did your son make it to Mt Bohemia? If so, how were the conditions?

^^^ The extreme backcountry is fun as hell!

Buddy and I hit it the day after a fifteen inch dump with plenty of leftovers. Great pitch, some stuff to jump off and NO crowds. Ski down to the road...

Hey ugly$- Congrats to your racer! Kicking ass and taking names

Safe travels, have fun out west

I'm using a 191 Jeffrey 108 for almost every type of snow and they do very well in the conditions you're describing above. Also have a 190 Bibby for deeper days

The Jeffreys are heavy enough to...

Big day at Fernie ~40k...

Big day at Tyrol ~30 laps... ~9k

I was on autotrader last night looking at 2015 T6s. Those prices dropped dramatically since I bought my 2016 T5 in Jan 2022

stoopid timing

The dealer gave me a loaner for the three(!!!) weeks it took to replace the rings and various other items while in there. The car has been home for the past three weeks and it drives great, but the...

Thanks for your thoughts! The Black Ops sound great, I need to give them a try

Could you describe how you feel the BO 118 has greater versatility than the Wildcat/Bibby?

The Bibby I'm on feels pretty versatile, but I avoid bumps when I can. The thing I like best about the...

Do you have a shop near you that sells Rossignol FKS? I'd start there with a warranty claim

If I can figure out how to attach photos, I'll get you some Nordic Mountain love

I'm enjoying my 191 Jeffrey 108 mounted @ recommended. Had fun using them on very firm snow up to ~8" fresh on a soft base. Never had an opportunity to ski them in anything deeper

At that mount...

^^^ Agree with K1m ^^^

My Jeffrey 108 isn't a race ski, but it's fun as hell trying to dig into the ice and get down to the finish line faster than I did before

That mentality is most likely...

Same here! Burned through a few pairs of mittens before I bought those leather glove protectors

Big Deal used to feel like a big deal :smile:

Where are you located? I have a box for you if you're in southern WI

I've enjoyed using "Ta", instead of "Kind Regards" or "Best Regards"

Never tried the "Toodles", but maybe it's time to start
