this is somewhat terrifying... the grip he can still have following an event like last Wednesday. Also, it appears his followers suffer from his same inability to count and assess crowd size: “I,...

Props to Gunder, great seller. Stio jacket was shipped to me immediately, arrived in pristine condition as advertised. thanks!

thanks! I haven't skied an absurd amount of different skis in my life like many here, but I have to agree. it's a special ski!


They certainly opened my eyes up. I was on the Cornice chair at...

thanks. that's what I thought.

sending vibes and drinking a beer on your behalf. I hope your buddy manages ok and that you clear your next test.

Hot laps on Silver Fir with my two boys today, ski on zero lines, USDA Choice Cascade Mash Potatoes. Rain/snow transition about half way up the lift, but creeping further down the hill when we left...

not sure what your budget is, but I highly recommend Cascadia Wheels (formerly Indigenous Wheel co) out of Tacoma WA, but they ship. about $1200 gets you a sweet hand built carbon wheelset to your...

ooooo.... I take it you don't want to trade for two pair of primo cycling shoes that are (likely) not your size? heh heh

Similar to Toast's option... We used a couple of these in our class B during the winter. Nice to be able to just toss them in the oven and recharge. ...

Good condition! Not a lot of use as I had a hot spot on my ankle (a regular problem for me on shoes, boots). Great shoes,...

this is of no surprise to anyone, but Central was pretty crowded today. Beautiful out though!

holiday bump. treat yourself!

I generally despise "VIP" passes like this, and am in the group hissing, muttering under my breath. Mostly because I'm way too frugal to pay for them. My mom decided to treat my family of 4 plus her...

the succession talk cracks me up... down the middle? pretty sure the group of states on the pro-trump/anti mask side of the 'great succession' would be left with a shitty GDP and a lot of debt...

4frnt MSP 99? I spent awhile looking for a similar ski as you (go find the dad ski thread in techtalk). Had mine out for their first day today on super heavy wet pnw concrete at Central. They...

Exactly this happened on my first day at Snoq Summit/WA today. rain/snow coming down pretty hard, so super high humidity. I bought a few of the Turtle Fur double layer buffs discussed earlier in...

I wish you didnt live in Denver Smoova!

thanks ShoNuff and Supermoon! I'm also in the PNW. I think I've narrowed options down to the Planet Bike Cascadia ALX set.. I like the suggestion of the Oragamis as well for a quick solution when...
