Nice to see some turns being had here in VT; well done Laps and Ayo.

I was fitted for new boots yesterday at Alpine Options and was quite happy to see ample white stuff along the peaks. Won't be long now......

I'm looking for sell a pair of 185 full carbon DPS Casiar 95s with 2 sets of holes and a pair of Salomon Guardian bindings in decent shape, both for cheap. Local pick up around Barre/Montpelier. PM more for info and/or pics.

C’mon Benny… you’re smarter than that. Skis are cheap but Content is priceless, especially to your sponsor.

Have fun and remind everybody at the resort what a good skier you are!

"Skis are cheap"

Holy shit. So upper crust TGR.

**singlecross** · 11-05-2021, 08:44 AM

“to your sponsor”

Don’t cherry-pick quotes out of context to bait a hobby argument. You’re still smarter than that.

New? Nope, they're prob 4 years old, still in good shape.

Hate? Nope, they're light, snappy skis, great for frontside days. Full carbon means they'll feel like that for many years.

I hardly use them and figured I would pass along a good deal on a fancy set of skis.

Carry on.

You would think Bunz had watched a Candise edit before? I am sure that he loves his skis and uses plety of mint ones to film.

Heard from Goniff and opening day is indeed a Gong Show. Pictures at 11, for sure.

**Benny Profane** · 11-05-2021, 09:50 AM

There is only one Candide. That was not Candide. But he wanabee Candide.

Way to get out there and get after it! I'll be living a bit vicariously through you guys the next few years. The kid is now a squirt in hockey which means as the coach/parent of the team, I'll be living the hockey life in the front seat driving all over the state.

The light pollution here was a bit of a pain. Especially the 3 million candlepower lit up cross shining in my face. I don't know how long that thing has been up at the end of a small peninsula just out of view to the left but it is rather obnoxiously bright Wide view with light pollution washing out the aurora...

You’ll love the hockey dad/coach years. I missed skiing but the payoff was worth the loss of ski days.

Amazing pics of the AB

I should’ve snapped a pic when I left work yesterday of the dude with skis/boots on his pack leaving Lot C and heading up. We’ve had guns blowing on Tote for two days now. Not sure it’s exactly ready, but he was.

Fire in the hole!!

This was the best part of day two. Skied down the man made and it was downright dangerously grabby. 3 double ejects resulted in a long walk down. Bike season is back in full swing!
