    We have a full on resurgence here in flagstaff with our new generation. It's pretty cool to see. This place has changed quite a bit but it's really fun to see the yoots getting after it.

    The Coleman factor? Cool about the Utes. What triggered the resurgence & interest?

    I got this framed poster as a birthday gift recently and really like it. I was disappointed to learn that teleski is French for rope toe and telepheriques are tram cars, and not a group of beautiful women who free heel ski in red tank tops.
    I’m less likely to go all the way to Megeve now.

    This is kinda a cross post from ON3P thread, but figured y'all telewackers would dig. Took out these puppies today.

    Anyone need an NTN rig?

    182 ON3P Woodsman 108 Outlaw X NTN
    Nice stable ride, a bit longer feeling than my 180 Ripstick106 and bashed through the chop quite nicely, holds a solid edge on firm. They've got a fresh tune and in excellent shape, 2 mounts. Could prolly rustle up some skins. I might list them on GS, when i get around to it. If you're looking to get into NTN this is a great starter rig.

    Tech Tonics, douche your box and holla! You got first dibs...

    Can anyone here give an opinion on how active the springs are on the 22Designs Lynx? I am trying to hunt down a setup for a ski buddy of mine and can’t seem to find Meidjo 3s anywhere, was hoping that the Lynx was maybe a good substitute.

    Yo I got Meidjo 2.1s i could sell. They ski the same as the 3.0. I weighed a bit too much and would get occasional pre-releases with the 2.1 toe though.. If your buddy weighs less than 165ish they should be good though.

    I’ve got the Lynx updated version (I think?). Springs are very active- almost a little too active for me. There’s apparently some mods I can make to the binding to improve the ski feel but I haven’t had time to fuck w them.

    That said if someone wants to buy some minty barely used Lynx, drop me a line. Will sell for pro price.

    I’m guessing they’re larges, but if not I’ll take them.

    I know you’re speaking for a friend when you say this and this is really your new firm day rig.
