That looks like a great place to ski, but I wasn't overly impressed with skiing. Intermediate mostly, IMO. :D Hey lowangle, I am happy you won't get the chance to see my video of me skiing my skinny Europa 99 tonight with my headlamp as I am not even close to be an intermediate tele skier :lol: But...

So another 120" later, it is still snowing. It was complete white out today. just to see where we were going, I had to use glacier mountaineering skills by waving my pole in front (really needed to tie some neon yarn to it). Took almost 2 hours to break 3 miles of trail...wooo! My trusty Asnes FT62...

My son has a pair of Rossignol Sprayer 178 cn and he he is looking to change them. Does anyone have experience with those skis? I could, maybe, use them for resort when the snow conditions are not that good for my Rabbs. Just thinking...

Well, I just had a nice day with the FT62 in its natural habitat, rolling terrain and soft snow. What a pleasure, what a dream! Perfect mix of K&G and downhill control. Would love to see a waxless version too! (I know I'm not the only one asking for this!) Hey Woods- Cool to get a report from you o...

I LIKE YOUR HERRINGBONES :-) Reminds me of skiing with my dad as a kid in upstate NY. not that it matters, but do you have skins? Thanks for the compliment... was it a compliment :?: :P I do have skins that I try to use as little as possible. I can only manage a few turns in the many little slopes ...

The cure is to drown them in skis, so many skis they lose track. Then, you become a broker of sorts and skis go in and skis go out and no one can keep track anymore The thing is that they only go in for now... I put up my Rabbs for sale twice just to change my mind twice because the first time I pu...

but probably for the best as my wife would probably kill me if I bought anything else this winter. How many of us on this Forum are actually scared by their wife/husband/etc...? From my scientific observation (Ben will be proud that I look at that from a scientific perspective... sorry Johnny :lol:...
