haha, takes one to know one.

Nope, popped my cherry with this one.



Maybe/maybe not on May at K. Even if I don't ski, the tailgating is worth the short trip. Hope to see you there.



Thnx R. Fit for my age mebbe...

^ sorry to hear about your injury. Heal as quickly as us old folk can.

I ended my season yesterday with a fall on the deck at Magic...dislocated shoulder.

I just proved what many of you that have met me already thought; I'm an idiot.

After a fun afternoon of near perfect corn at Magic (yesterday) I was walking into the lodge to de-boot. Was kicking...

Can't answer your question without pics to assess what "great shape" means to you.

I tried to sell a pair of 27.5 F1s (not LT) that were pretty minty for $275 and didn't get a single nibble. YMMV.

Maybe not pow but today was one of the best I've had in a long while at Magic. Everything was skiable.

When Lynchdog was Patrol Director at Magic, he always cleared Red Line. Jeff with a G deserves one every now and then.

Sold out lift tix but lost power after a couple of hours. Can't win.

I'm number 2 I guess. The last 3 buyers we've had (we move a fair bit) came to the Open Houses. 2 of the 3 came back after the Agent left to talk to us one-on-one. As always, YMMV.

Here at the base (of Magic) , it's pretty much like glue. Hopefully, it's drier up higher.

I would seriously think about getting at least a Base+ pass. Easy math: Base+ is $220 more than the Base. 1 day of skiing at Jackson = $210-ish. That gives you 4 more for $10.

Danno's suggestion...

Morning update from base o' Magic: Measured 18" of dense snow at about 8:30am. Still nuking outside. 1-2" per hour. Snow seems to be getting a bit lighter as the storm goes on. Tomorrow should be...

^If the storm pans out, it's going to be sketchy. Drive safe.

I always preferred Lab over Song when we lived in CNY. Lab had some great tree runs.

3" of fluff overnight at Magic and you would think it was a full-on powder day. Another sellout day. Makes Jeff with a G happy (skied a few runs with him and his son).

But it was sooooo good. ...

^ Had a similar issue in an unnamed (at least publicly) BC spot in SoVT a coupla years ago. I never venture into the BC alone. Luckily, my next door neighbor and frequent skiing partner let me go...

Used to drive between the Cuse and Smallbany every weekend for years...the snow ended right after you went over the hill just past Shoemaker (Shumaker?) headed eastbound. Really surprised nobody...

^ Berkshire East? Great little (not so little) hill.

Also wondering about this. Wal-Mart parking lots are widely known for camping in their lots. That's how my brother who is wealthy but cheap as fuck gets to Phoenix from CowHampshire 3-4 times/year.

My next door neighbor at Magic just reported a 29 minute lift line. Not surprised....

Get after it! Going to be one of those day where you do run out of time before you run out of leg (quoting...

I'm in Newport, RI for my BIL's 60th. You're welcome....

Dooood

I may have some connection with those sticks. So happy they're delivering the stoke.

For east coasters, Kendo 88s for $353 US. Only have 177s and 184s. I paid $100 more for them last week and I thought I got a deal....

Took me a minute....

Yes. The Attacks have +/- 20mm travel and these were mounted in the middle of the range for 310, so they should go as low as 290....

Should have posted these last week...I was blowing through...

****SOLD to teletech****
Thinning the herd a bit and these skis just aren't getting used much any more...realize these aren't typical TGR skis but for east coast groomer zooming, they're pretty...

Echoing Doremite's comments. I have both (L and M). If it's really cold, I need the space in the L to layer up but when it's above 20*, the M works great for me. I'm 6'0", 180-ish, 42L suit coat...

If you say so....I saw a price of $311 plus $26 for shipping and IME, Snowinn will have them in yur hot little hands in 3-4 days.

Can confirm, the gladezzz at Saddleback are tittayzzz (to quote djongo).

Might want to look at other places to sell. Folks on this forum know that the place to buy these is snowinn.com where they can be had for far less than your asking price. Yes it's in Europe but you...

One last bump for [some] new snow in the east. If nobody bites, I'll try again in the fall.

Not in the market but it's pretty easy to find out Patagonia models and year of manufacture:

I've got a pair of Atomic Redster WC130s in 27.5 (315mm bsl) that timberridge sold to me for a bowl of soup. No work done to them. Sidas liner. They don't get along with my Scarpa feet so happy to...

Yep, saw your listing...sadly, I need the 27.5/28.

Thanks to everybody that gave updates. Hard to resist that 20% off. Going to head up to my local bootfitting shop and see if they can get me that deal. Just have to decide between the 120 and 130...

I saw another angle and it looked like he got raked over the Lunch Rocks. Don't think he was buried.

Mrs. Single in action...she's a rippin' skier.

The correct answer is Ragged.

No, gladezzz.

Single is an awesome host and guide. Somehow, we got 4” of snow last night and the trees skied great this morning. Got a little sportier on the higher ungroomed trails but a great...

There's a guy here in SoVT that wanted to be a meteorologist (even majored in it at Plymouth State) but life got in the way. He has a YouTube channel (West River Weather Guy) and for point...

Bump for another EC storm that's likely going to fizzle....

^ Not sure if I'm more jealous of the number of pow days you're logging or your skills behind the lens. In either case, BRA-VO!

I have a bit and tap for the inserts you can borrow. I like using the tap even if the ski doesn't have metal in it...just makes it easier to thread the inserts in. I ski with Goniff a fair bit and...

TTT

160 views, no nibbles. Price police or make an offer.

Jumping in line...why you should sell to me:
1. Not a low post count JONG
2. Will be at Saddleback this coming weekend and willing to travel to meet up so no shipping hassles.
3. Will pay cash...

It got way worse after 9/11. I used to work for another branch of Homeland Security and had to travel along the south side of the St. Lawrence (in the Upstates) quite a bit. There was always an...

1.25 kg boots in your size...minty AF. 27.5 and 28 are the same boot from Scarpa. In fact, that year they only sold the half sizes....

Thinning the herd...I bought these boots in October 2019 and have only put 22 days on them. With the recent winters, there just hasn't been enough snow in SoVT to get into the BC. I have Scarpa...

Hard to beat Corbetts for selection and price but there's some great deals at The Last Hunt if the sizing works out.

I just ordered some Kendo 88s from Corbetts and it was $475 USD to my door. ...

Thanks. Thinking I might hit BMOM in Rumford on the way over so I'll probably just stay on 2. Ski a half day on the Indy Pass so I won't burn a whole day just driving.
