This is the definition of, "Fucked around, and found out."

If you start slinging shit, you better be able to back it up with evidence.

Based on the federalpay website it looks like that bike slinging ski shop had 147k forgiven to retain 50 employees all while never shutting their doors and selling an, "assload of bike stuff."

Not...

Might as well go on a surf trip if your going to get the death penalty?

I've heard it best described as;
Women's Spring: Release Occasionally
Mens: Release Infrequently
Expert: Release "Never"

I run Expert Springs in my two pairs and have never released, even when...

Do. Not. Need.

I couldn't remember the name of that area since I only rode it last year once, but fully agree with this. This is a great spot if the weather makes Phil's unbearable.

Your memory of Horse Gulch is correct, Meadow Loop would probably be great but that road climb to get their is pretty off putting for most kids. Overend Park (Aka Test Tracks) is a better bet for...

Go AVS!!!!!

Dee Hubs put it well earlier in this thread. They love putting people to death in Texas for Murder 1.

Classic reddit comments there. BuT WHaT AbouT ThE FiRsT ResPondERS?>!>!?

Tore a big hole in my other bike shorts yesterday and this is a sign. Sending a PM now.

Feels like July down here right now. Highs in the 70s at 9318' and mid 90s in Durango. Crazy to me that lots of people are still skiing big classic spring descents up North. Sounds like the riding...

Hey look I see myself in one of those photos... lol.

We should talk about Deso in July my guy.

Forgot to pull mine... so thanks. and bump.

Skied all 5 pairs this year, just under 100 days.

55% of days on my Sickles
25% on my two touring sticks
15% on my pow sticks
5% on my old favorites

Pretty good. I think I'll buy more skis...

Whoever suggested the Thin Mint Pretzels... thank you. Fucking delicious

Just catching up on this story after following it closely for the first couple days.

How in the world did Armstrong manage to get on a plane to New York after being arrested for the class B...

I understand the desire to DIY this, but you're asking for a catastrophic failure if you don't use a connected Dynafit insert, even for uphill. The pressure you put on an insert doing even an icy...

As someone with fairly skinny heels (with bone spurs from skiing) and wide-ish forefoot I'll second the TX3s. The ability to change the lacing up to fit your foot/activity better is super important...

The Rossi Sender Squad could be a good choice too. We debated that ski in the Sickle thread a while back and at your size, weight, skier type it sounds like a great fit.

Since you'll be on the MFree 108 next season why not go with the Jeffery 118? That ski was a standout this year based on the reports in the ON3P thread.

Got out at A-Basin yesterday for the first time in 5/6 years. It was a nice capstone to a two week trip that had me traveling to Wisconsin in 90 degree heat w/70% humidity. So awesome to ride lifts...

Left Silverton on the 1st for a trip. By the time I get back on the 16th spring skiing season will already be over. Insanity how quickly things melted out down south. One month ago I was skiing over...

I also had this happen on a pair of ON3Ps, but I think it's fairly common for other brands too. I noticed while tuning them that I could kinda slide a razor blade a few millimeters between the inside...

You're not off base at all. The previously mentioned tx4 has a fairly average last that tends to fit most, while the TX Guide on the other hand has an ultra narrow last that works best with folks who...

As someone with a Runt in a 150mm Pike you will not be disappointed. Best upgrade I ever did to my bike.

Just wanted to see if anyone got a working discount code? Going to buy this week and would love to save a little cash.

If you end up wanting to split I would be interested in just the skis/skins.

Any Wasatch mags happen to buy a pair of size 28.5 Tecnica Zero G Pro tours off KSL yesterday (5/2)?

If you did (or know someone who did) please PM me. My boots were stolen by a roommate and I’m...

Oh my. Do want. So bad.

That's a pretty horrifying map honestly. It feel like early june in Silverton right now. I miss the classic spring in the high country.

Props to Laps for sending me his extra MTN EXP u-springs at no cost to me! Tried to throw him some cash for a 6 pack and he wouldn't even give me his venmo. Stand up mag right there.

This heat and dust in the San Juans is destroying the snow pack.

Depressing graph considering I'm in the middle of a move and then traveling the first week of May.

Want to second if anyone has a pair of Caylor's they are trying to sell. I'm interested.

These are what I use too. They really kick ass. Breathable, but keep the wind and snow out easily. I use them for the uphill on most winter tours and put something warmer on for the down. During the...

I was curious about the Meridian vs the Sickle. Doesn't sound like they ski very similarly at all. I'd still be curious to try the touring version of that ski at some point.

I've been on my...

Unreal winds in Silverton right now. Maybe 3-5" of dense stuff in town when I got back an hour ago. Hopefully the wind will do some work up at the mountain and make closing weekend excellent.

Double post

After reading the last page this is the only thing I can think of. How is the Sickle anything like the Katana 108? It seems to me that the only thing remotely similar about the skis is the flat...

Maybe buddy misplaced/broke his binding bridge and is trying to save face by telling you that's how he always does it? Maybe I'm being to kind by even suggesting that, pulling a customers binding for...

As someone who currently daily drives the 186 Sickle finding a modern comparable is a difficult task. It really does make any turn you want. Such an enjoyable ski in almost every condition and speed....

If you're just trying to crush out laps with your buds the unguided terrain is more than enough, getting a guide this time of year is worth it if you're trying to get into more interesting terrain....

PM sent on the Jeffs.

Props to rocca for a quick and easy sale on some MTN Binders. Shipped next day and arrived as described!

Bunch of new stuff on the Factory Finds.

The Trash Can 186 Jeff 102s are pretty enticing for $899

That is a scary picture. Perfectly captures the issues most of the state is currently dealing with.

I'm really considering them to replace my current daily driver touring set up. You and I have both touted the awesomeness of the Steeple series in the ON3P thread and my old 102s are mounted with...

From the CAIC:

"Preliminary: At around 3:00 PM on March 17, 2022, a solo backcountry snowboarder was caught, buried, and killed in an avalanche south of Trout Lake, about five miles southwest of...

If the buyer isn't interested in the Expert U spring I'd throw you some cash for them.

Thanks

What was the weight on these? $300 + ship seems like a great deal.
