I'm really not into purposely exposing myself and testing my immune response against the covids. If covids is around, there is a good chance it is floating in the air at the local bar and grill. 95%...

Thanks for the offer. I went with the 148 Mantra after sleeping on it. Already have some S7's to mount on them. I think 153 is probably too much ski at the moment.

Yes they are. That is what I am thinking as well.

If the vaccines induced 5G cock vibrations they could save the world.

In real life most people I know barely had side effects. On this board it seems like the other way around.

There is a huge difference between my old Brahma 88's and last years 82's. I think it is a apples to oranges comparison. I really need to get on a new pair of 88's. Also I need to get my 82's tuned...

A good way to tell the parents that take the covids seriously and the ones who pretend they do but are just greenwashing. Watch their kids.

Yeah I dunno. Would depend on the price point and the line. The line has certainly caused me to take very limited laps the last couple times I was out. I like to ski with my little girl...so no...

Never even heard of it. The Swix CH wax I use is hard as a rock, the warmer temps a little better but you still basically have to brush them off. Scraper can only do so much. Buy a scraper sharpener.

There is a risk to kids under 12...but it doesn't seem to be more substantial than say the flu. In fact the numbers lined up just like the flu...with the flu taking a bi.

Long term implications...

Agreed.

All of it needs more nuance. Stay home! Don't travel! Mmmmkay. That is an easy message but we know we can do lots of things safely with simple mitigation. The nuance is where we get lost...

I think they are inferring that social isolation for kids is inherently dangerous or comes with its own set of dangers?
