Re: Is wildsnow.com defunct now?

4 years ago, I almost sold this place. There was an official offer on the table. A very tempting, and very attractive offer I must say. BIG guys, big bucks. Several thousands of dollars to buy the whole Telemark Talk forum. Cash. But I knew exactly what it meant. That would have been the end of this...

Re: The Future!

Oh just one last thing... A lot of you also wrote to me about all the stuff that is going on behind the curtains. Thank you for forwarding me all that stuff, but please in the future, forward it to the moderators. As I said, I'm totally fed up with that and I don't even want to hear about any of tha...

The Future!

My personal plea is for post/edit limits and more bi-lateral time outs. it does make things difficult. Personal attacks take two to tango and to see one side punished is tacit endorsement of one point of view. Dear friend, Thank you for your suggestions. They sure will be taken into consideration. ...

Re: What happened?

Aw crap, there’s the neighbor, letting his yappy little dog out to bark at every little sound. Guess, I’ll go enjoy that cold one inside. Very nice analogy, thanks for sharing! And congratulations on your wise reaction. (Really, I mean it...!) But to complete the analogy.... I wonder... Why didn't ...

Re: Update from the XCD Knights

This forum is pretty inclusive Seriously, as you may have noticed, it would be hard to find a more inclusive and more open-minded place than here on the internet. There are a lot of XC skiers and ATers here, and they are all welcome as you have seen. Even snowboarders and alpine skiers are welcome ...

Re: Xplore on Ice?

My Question is, how much edge control does this system enable? Would I be in trouble if I came across an Icy section of trail. I'm also a bit concerned about hiking in them and how that will effect the Pin mechanism. There is a lot to say about Xplore, but honestly, I would say that edge control is...

The College captures the first patent for asphalt skis.

I could not find a patent number.
Awesome! And exactly what I had in mind back then!

Re: Manney, and similar…

Unfortunately if we don't react to Manney he'll dominate the forum with bad info. The only bad info here so far is your fucking batshit crazy claims about me. Nothing else. I much prefer the truth than the imagined disinformation bullshit you are spreading around and recommending to the newbies her...
