a little update. I have now probably 4 days or so in slackcountry / backcountry and few days in resort on powder day. I want to update my mounting point (recall, I installed demo bindings on my...

Thank you everyone on this thread! It was very useful. I bought mine last May to replace my old backcountry K2 Missdirected. Installed Atomic Backland right on the line. Skied them two days. First...

so time flies. Yesterday was first powder day. Took them to resort, first hour was untouched snow of course and then progressively moving towards the rope and then out of the bounds.

Everything...

already happy. impressive. plus I put it on the scale. 1800 gr for a ski.

oops, wanted to edit one word in my post and instead it got deleted.. Retyping...
Q for you Pescado enthusiasts. I have read all your reviews and you convinced me - I just got a Pescado and Atomic...

just got my Line Pescado today. with atomic backland. Pescado is as big as Pontoon, but weights 1 kilo less, 3600 gr on my scale. Plus from what I read on TGF in other threads its perfect for low...

well, I dont care about speed. Esp. in BC. In fact the slower the better. Smearing at close to zero speed in full control is a special pleasure. To understand it one needs to live long enough :)

"i've never been on pow boards but they are undeniably monsters. if you want a ski that can handle the resort duties you described and tour just as well" - monsters is OK, I would just say that my...

stealurface - praxis, yes, the guy 2 km away from me is selling Praxis Powderboards with Marker Shizo (so I can find my mounting point before changing to backland/G3, and actually try it with lift...

AEV - no regrets. I still have four as I describe in my too verbose post. It is just my reference point. After skiing it 10 years ago for my first day I came to the car and cried because I realised...

stealurface - you helped me! Thank you!

solved. search revealed it ended in Tech Talk Forum, which makes sense (but it is not under Ski main forum, which doesn't). Anyways, thank you everyone who helped me!

looks like somebody helped me and I am almost there. The New Thread button came alive, I posted a new thread (yesterday), the brief message appeared saying something about "moderator approval"... and...

Hi this is my first post. This my story and Q.
Next winter i'll be 67. I am intermediate ski, still hoping to ski better.

I am a big fan of Obsethed. I have 3 pairs in different degree of wear....

am I asking too much, but can somebody PM to deepsouthmafia and ask him to kindly grant a permission for me to ask a Q???

thank you. But this is a catch 22. Where is PM button or link????

BTW, the system restricts me even when I reply to my own Q. No quotation, some errors about "forbidden" words. Weird...

oh, how didn't I think about Searching, such a bright new idea. Of course I did!
My question is about Poon2oon, Hellbent, Obsethed.

there seems to be no new button? I just joined the forum, want to ask a Q, for that I have to start a thread, but how
