I've got no beef with you Rod. You're a positive contributor here. GT is the guy who needs a new joke.

[quote="Rodbelan" You sound like some sort of Sarah Pailin of skiing! [/quote] LOL :) OK GT, woods asked for advise, he agreed with what I said and had been thinking the same thing and says he will be working on it next season. It sounds like you're the one sticking their nose where it doe...

Hey GT how many people agree with your views on telemark skiing? Zero, nobody, if I'm wrong and you agree with GT let us know. It seems your only motivation for posting is to piss people off and since I can't tell you in person to shut the fuck up I hope Johnny bans you. We've put up with your negat...

My Merrils from the mid to late 80s fit like they are marked in US sizing.

Good for you for still getting out there. Your stance is good as far as fore and aft, and it seems to be working ...

It looks like you had a great time, and that's what matters. Plus you got to revisit a special place from your past, it sounds like it was money well spent. I never knew you had such deep roots over there.
