I've got some 110(?)mm Aattack brakes that I'd trade for 95s; calipers say 108-110 depending on where you measure the width. PM if interested. They're not new but totally functional. Just too wide...

Yeah, most Scarpas have low instep heights. That's why they work for me. Atomic, Fischer, Head, Technica all have too much volume for my duck feet

Google link worked for me...not picky about colors for my 2X baselayers but 1 of each or whichever color you have more of.

That ain't going to be enough to make a difference...call me anchor-boy

You don't look at the trees, you look at the gaps.

Dick punch and 3 laps for you.

Amazing pics Hank. MRG on a weekday is one of the best ski experiences there is...anywhere.



My dad and rich brother both live full time at WV. I don't ski with them because, well, WV sucks...

Fuck yeah!

I wouldn't get too judgemental if you've never met VT-free IRL...trending toward sounding like NJ Dave



For me, it's the trees. I was on 185's, 184's and 183's but they were a bitch in some of...

In for 2X base layer.

Like buttah, I am a total phanboi for Elan now...off my love for Liberty V92 because the 2021 R96 I picked up (with the prototype topsheets) from someone on here is so much more versatile. Loved...

This is a steal deal...somebody buy these so I won't

I've seen more fights or near fights in the 4 times I've skied at Mt. Snow than any other place I've skied in 50+ years...with the exception of maybe my only day at Huntah. Lotta rage pent up in...

I ski them inbounds. Not as stiff as a Redster WC 130 but plenty stiff for me. I had the original Freedoms and I could fold those things in half...almost felt like I was droppin knees. The RS is...

Nice!

So I don't have to buy a fancy biking jersey to ride in this group of hooligans?

He needs to hire Jimmy McGill as his lawyer.

Picked up the Checkpoint ALR5 today. Guy had it on order and then found one in stock so bought the in-stock bike. Only reason the shop had it on the floor. Going to be a fun summer.

Great advice...thnx. Heading to the local shop tomorrow (I did confirm today that they haven't sold it already).

Trek Checkpoint ALR5 comes with 40mm tires.... Will give er a go on the stock...

I am...you got any brakes narrower to trade?

Ha! Instead doing work for work today, I spent most of the day on pinkbike. Found 4 good candidates but nothing perfect. Actually found a Trek Checkpoint ALR5 at a local shop in Manchester, NH. ...

Southern Greens may recover first...the Thursday night/Friday event looks like 6-8" right now but NWS noting that, like previous storms, this one could push further northward delivering even more.

Used to road bike when I lived in Germany because people there respect cyclists. Haven't ridden in 3 decades because people here are complete idiots when they get...

^Ha! Seeds indeed

Badass

If you can't figger out how to get the umlaut over the vowels, you need to add the "e"

My most challenging mount your own fucking skis project.

Have a pair of 2021 Elan Ripstick 96s that check every block for me here in Vermont. Great to tour on, great in the inbounds trees,...

No, not all skiers...entitled fucks that happen to ski.

Here at Magic, I have noted about 95% of the people complying with the mask mandate in line without having to be reminded. The repeat...

Seems like there's a few FS and WTB threads here so I thought I would put this here rather than over in Gear Swap which is almost exclusively ski gear right now.

Used to road bike when I lived in...

Fingers crossed for a nice refresh tonight into tomorrow. Still skiing great but we haven't gotten any appreciable snow for a week. Steep natural snow trails are showing some wear in the usual...

Thanks J...I'll PM when my plans firm up.

PM sent

Oof...I won't post pics of one of the off-the-map glades at Magic yesterday. It will be featured in an upcoming add as Stefan from Red Vault was in there filming DoWork and Jeff with a G. Let's...

For those that think it's only worth hitting Magic on a pow day, you're really missing out on the best conditions in a decade here. Skied trees and bumps all day. Skied things faster than I'm...

^Thread killer

Yes

I dunno...

Can't remember the mag that I dealt with but he had 2 different sized feet and bought 2 pairs of Scarpa Mobes - different sizes. His left foot was the bigger and my right foot was the...

Had a pass at Lab for 6 years. Great little hill and great family that owns it. Great trees over on lookers left of the ridge. I used to lap that chair for hours. I know exactly where your pics are...

Another tour in SoVT for us on Sunday 1-31-2021....very similar to last Saturday's (same locale). Temps near zero at the start but no breeze and bright sun made it more than bearable.

Nobody had...

Heh...saw the Rev live at the Taos Mesa Brewery a coupla years back. Rowdy crowd for sure.

Scarpa blowing out past season inventory. For example, 2019 F1 boots in 26, 26.5, and 27.5 are $490.

Happy hunting

True story...I've been in to 3 different bootfitters in SoVT and they all know his footbeds. PJ will tell you the truth...like the time I took in some too small Scarpas and he said, "I can get your...

Solid work to both Gs!

I can't believe I sold those skis to Laps. Was just mentioning to Mrs. MNIAW how much I regret selling those but at least they're being used for what they are best at and...

Shipping notice received! Woot!

LOL funny. Perfect timing



MMP calls me an obtuse asshole all the time to my face.

Stuart does a nice job with the podcasts and his blog is worth subscribing to as well. Search for the Storm Skiing Journal.


Read the blog post Harv. Welcome back and glad you beat the virus....

Any pics of the Merrells?

PM sent!

Thnx ISBD!

Kokomas, I'll PM you

As a former helicopter pilot, I can tell you that weird noises are a big cause for concern...
