If you want to understand where AI is at and where it is going in the next 30 years read his new book The Singularity is NEARER.

These peaked my interest too. From what I can tell they are Kastle's attempt to get good skiers on their brand at a lower price point. Kinda of a BMX with no metal, so easier and therefore cheaper to...

What you got left for how much $?

I've probably have 500 days on mine and have to tighten them as hard as I can to the point there is no give left, so they have basically become regular power straps. Thanks for the reminder to get...

Until Ikon and Mt. Collective BS survived on heavy marketing to the midwest and northeast. Those folks loved the thousands of acres of intermediate groomers and think flat light is a normal skiing...

Lived in MT when Big Sky opened and have skied it off and on through its history, including a few days last year. Have a friend who has owned a small condo there since the 1980's and I've been...

My wife and I have spent our lives living and traveling for skiing the Rockies and Canada. Since retiring 10 years ago, moving several times and spending every winter chasing the goods we have come...

Sorry for the Tech Interlude: Anybody know a boot fitter in Bend who has experience punching Pebax shell AT boot? Thanks, carry on!

My sentiments exactly! Just finished my 2nd day at Jackson Hole on my 188 AM R99s and am finding them more than adequate in places I never expected. Because of my size I tend to over ski them when...

Red Mt, Rossland, BC. $25 CAD (which is about $17.50 US) a night. No ammenities but very close to lodge for bathrooms, water and good WIFI. No reservation required, but you need a passport to cross...

The fastest distance between two points is a smooth line.

If you are skiing faster than everyone else no one can run into you, you can only run into them, therefore you are in control of the situation.

The info I have came through a member who describes his locker as a double, so maybe that explains the 100 number, but I don't know for sure. My info is second hand. I also know of families that...

Just heard there are only 45 Seven Summits Passes, and they are not a guaranteed next tram deal. They allow 35 people to cut the line each tram. If there are too many patrol, classes, etc ahead of...

Check out AI Trump talks about his E.D. on YouTube. The beauty is that if he publicly complains it will just cause milions of more people to see it.

Did not see another person top to bottom.

I want to buy some skis from a Bend Mag but need to sell mine first. Anyone interested in some 186 Nordica 94s see my listing in Ski Swap. Perfect tools for Mt.Bach's recurring solid surface. I will...

Trying to figure out how to wax for skiing the trees with one inch of breakable ice crust and large frozen clumps falling from the trees.

I've always said that once you stop learning new tricks you are nothing but an old dog.

Say "OK," then get out her old ski boots and make her try and put them on herself. That may end it right there.

No, I have not skied the 130 LV dual pivot, so I have no right to critisize it. Probably skis fantastic, but the description sounds like a lot of new (and undoubtedly expensive) tech to solve...

The sink in the men's room is really high so drunks that don't want to wait in line won't piss in it.

FWIW: They conquered shell deformation (Is that even a word?) 45 years ago with the the Raichcle Flexon, which is where I fell in love with progressive flex, and fortunately the Cabrio shell still...

It seems like this boot was designed in part to eliminate progressive flex, which is something I have always liked. A statement like "Turn initiation comes on very quickly" makes is sound like the...

If I understand the numbers correctly those are 186 cm, 101 waist and a 27.7 m turn radius. Stockli seems to have a real affinity for long radius sidecuts. My 192 cm 110 waisted TTs have a 30 meter...

You realize you've become completely invisible to college girls.

I'm 6'4" and recommend Booster Straps to help resolve boot inequities for tall people. They effectively make your boots taller while giving the cuffs a more even progressive flex.

Hey, who said I was talking about my wife?

That may be true, but generally neurosis does not age well.

It might have been under your radar but try 2nd. Avenue Sports. They have a stone grinder and the techs seem pretty knowlegeable

I was using the term in the more general sense of thick inconsistent snow, although I've often had to ski classic cut up tracked "crud" exiting high traffic bc areas. If you are just touring a light...

Regardless of the situation or your lame ass rationalizations, thinking you are entitled to as much as you want at the expense of everyone else is a long term life strategy for becoming a loser, a...

When the Zero G 105s first came out I flexed a pair in the shop and they seemed really stiff for my taste, but they may have mellowed them out a little by now. I like a ski with a wide tip and some...

There are a shitload of light AT skis that will not cut it for a 200+ lb person. I have also seen some light skis and boots that are overly stiff to try and compensate but none that reviewed well....

6' 4" and 225 lbs. who went as light as possible on skis and boots and regrets it. My current setup climbs great but skis like shit except in light snow. My advice is to make sure you get a ski that...

But my question is what's the reason for the need to shout that, small dick? Which I mean in the broadest psychologial sense.

Expensive watches make no sense from a strictly functional standpoint. Isn't the question really why are you wearing it? To make you feel better about yourself, to make other people feel a certain...

Tell me that picture was actually taken anywhere in Oregon.

WTF happened to beer? Every place stocks 50 kinds of IPA, 20 kinds of hard cider, and a dozen beers with fruit in them, but almost zero stout, bock, porter, or dark beer. It's the middle of October...

Looks like the scam price was designed to skirt the $10,000+ IRS reporting requirement for cash bank deposits or business receipts.

Actually, I grew up in Wisconsin when drunk driving was an accepted way of life,
but I believe they have swung the other way with rather strict DUI enforcement. NM on the other hand is still very...

"Drunk with guns - nobody is surprised. Welcome to NM, Mom, don't break down and fill up with gas whenever you can please."

Used to live in Durango where we got Albuquerque TV news...

Originally there were lots of jeep trails, old desert roads and slick rock for the rock crawlers and motorcycles, which the mountain bikers began to share with no real issues. The key was that none...

Yeah but your White Hot inset is polyurethane. In case emergency I can eat my vegetable based Pebax insert.

Even if Pebax sucks in ski boots I love it in my Ping putter.

I think this is a situation where you need to consider that "when you dance with the Devil you don't change the Devil, the Devil changes you."

I'm 6'5 and 225 and also use my 192 110TTs way more than I had ever thought I would. Got lots of other skis but something about the smooth cruise feel of these babies has ruined me for using...

Sorry, It just showed up in the "new e-books" section of my local library. Guess I should have checked the publishing date. Since it's about the near future none of the assumptions seemed out of...

Anyone interested in some cyberpunk syfi about our water future check out a new book called The Water Kinife.
