I've got a ton of days on my ON3P Jeronimos skiing all over NE in any condition imaginable with zero damage. Definitely recommend them. For comparison, the Blizzards I am skiing now are not holding...

EMS (Eastern Mountain Sports) has 20% off some beacons today.

Just because an older bike is slower does not make it safer.

Invest in good gear and make sure it's worn all the time. Helmet, boots, gloves, jacket, and pants. That means all the time. Every...

Good to know.

Did you buy them from a local shop or online?

Could you mount up a fine tip sharpie instead of the knife?

I have had a good experience with Pirelli Sottozero Serie II's on my FWD MINI Cooper.

Interesting method, might try that this season.

Checked them out at the shop today, with a calibrated hand flex they appear to be very similar in stiffness to the Bonafide.

Sold to Shin-to-Win. Thanks.

Thanks, and it's meant to be a sweet deal. I skied them, loved them, now it's time for someone else to experience these rocketships.

Thanks Phil, going to try and get a hold of the 187s and try them out.

Bindings are not for sale.

Good to know, thanks. What length did you ski?

Depending on the situation, you're both right. Pretty sure it Kabookie, http://www.blizzardsportusa.com/Products/Free-Mountain/0104-12-KABOOKIE-FLAT-BWN.html

Has anyone had a chance to hand flex or ski the Blizzard Kabookie to get a feel for the stiffness of the ski? Any comparisons to other ski flexes?

191cm ON3P Wrenegade, lightly used 12 days, built January 2010. Asking $275 plus shipping, OBO. Bindings not included, mounted once for a BSL of 320mm. Bases are in great condition, 1 spot of ptex...

Good thread, thanks for the info and pics.

I skied my Head Supershape Magnum this weekend and it was a blast. Avoided any terrain with icy bumps though.

+1 For Nordica Dobermann lace up liner. Tough liner with a wicked good heel fit, for me anyhow.

Why is everyone so down on plastic? I haven't had a plastic binding break on me so I don't know the pain. There are engineering resins out there that offer the durability and toughness of steel,...

Having the toe wings fixed and adjusting the height of the AFD is a stronger and better design IMO.

Do yourself a favor, skip the college part for now. Move out there, ski, work, then in two/four years when you actually know what you want to major in, go to college.

I am riding a pair of Cochise's and Jeronimo's this season and the Cochise's bases have taken more damage then the Jeronimo's. The Jeronimo's base is darn tough, showing less damage even though it...

Thanks for the food reccomendations, going to try the Local Folk place, skiing + burgers + beer = heaven. Hoping for good snow on Saturday.

I'm going to be up at Sugarbush for the weekend and looking for a dinner reccomendation. Already have eaten at Flatbread and the Hyde Away, what else is good? I like hoppy beer if that helps. Any...

Also, the tactile feel of all the controls in the MINI is much better than any Impreza/Outback. Most controls are nicely weighted and everything very well desgined and built. Worth a test drive,...

I have a MINI hatchback with winter tires and it does well. Have had a troublefree 15K miles so far. Getting 33mpg all while not being polite with the throttle and using a roof box on trips to the...

Blue Powder: Head Supershape Magnum from a few years back, stupid fast.
Small Powder and Playground: ON3P Jeronimo's, wish I had the longer version that came out this season.
Big Powder and Going...

Link also has nice photos of actual tire tread.

A recent test of winter tires.

Darling St. in Mission Hill should be on that hit list, apres ski at the Penguin.

Going to be at the Bush tomorrow on pair of ON3P Jermonimo's. Give me a shout if you're there.

I run into that surface finish problem all the time in my job. The vendor/machinist thinks they're doing you a favor by providing a better than asked for surface finish, when in actuality you need...

Looking forward to those as well, not much skiing in the East yet, though it'll be here before you know it. Just excited to kick things off soon.

Interested if they are still available.

Southwest is having an airfare sale.

I rode a pair of the 191 Wren's last season and they will pretty much do anything you want. They work best when you are really getting after it. If you are pedal to the metal on the Wren's you will...

french....

Interested in the 4 day plus 2.

Trackday Stoke. This is my 848 up at Loudon.

Tecnica Rival XS BSL 294 SZ 25 Womens. Used just a couple days and in very good condition. Asking $75.00 plus shipping.

Yes, and I'm not supposed to touch them, so come take them off my hands.

I am not attending UVM but the mistress is, therefore I'll be up there most of this winter. Feel free to hit me up to do some skiing or drinking.

I'm interested, PM me some more info when you have it.

Ahh crap. Didn't read until the end of the thread.

I like skis, send them to me please.

March timeframe, will have to do some more research on the weather conditions and the like.

I'm interested.

I have had their Alpine Light parka for 3 years, and it hasn't leaked any down and its used pretty much everyday in the winter. Nice and long in the arms which I like, I am 6'3". I also got the UL...
