    I was around a few different ski schools long enough to see many different baseline beginner-intermediate progressions.

    Good instructors can teach a direct-to-parallel progression. It's a totally different learning curve. My elder child skied in a clean, open parallel at 3. Yes, I think she had more fun at 4 skiing...

    I'll jump in and point out that formula is fine if that's where you end up. The anti-formula crowd can get pretty toxic and pseudo-science-y. By all means, use a lactation consultant and give nursing...

    Can anyone suggest a good ski that will handle both park and competition mogul duty for an 8 year old? Even better if you have one for sale in a 130-ish length.

  6. FS: two tickets to Goose at Red Butte Garden

    I've got two extra tickets for the show tonight, 9/20, at Red Butte.

  7. WTB: rear wheel. 27.5", non-boost spacing

    Who's got a wheel to sell me? I roached my old wheel today.

    Cheap, SLC-area pickup strongly preferred. Full wheelset considered if it's blingy and cheap.

    Thanks!
