Re: Canadian Ski Marathon 2023 and.. more

I think that will make for a very good tour next year. I did enjoy the beginning and end segments of the second day, but the middle... a mix of untracked snowmobile trails and walking on roads was not the highlight of the event. I haven't booked anything yet, but the current plan is to head back an...

Re: Canadian Ski Marathon 2023 and.. more

@spopepro Basically you did 97 miles in two days in the Quebec countryside? Sounds pretty rugged to me. My legs would have definitely been toasty by Colorado! I’m not saying I would have made it, hats off to you. Hopefully @Nitram Tocrut will pipe in, I’d like to hear how an old farmer did. I spent...

Knee problems : How I solved it...

I know there is other threads on knee problems but I thought I would start a new thread as I have never seen a thread on knee KG. I will be short and sweet... last summer I was consulting an orthopedist for serious knee problems that were not only impeding my skiing but my life in general. I was adv...

Re: FS: 7tm Tour & Power Tour bindings

Selling two pairs of 7tm bindings. They are great telemark touring bindings. They each have a free-pivot function, which allows you to quickly switch to zero-resistance touring mode. It really makes a big difference on tours, and I also enjoy using it for getting across flats as well! Selling for $...

Nothing says "overrated and underperforming" like Asnes.
@mikesee Out of curiosity I would like to know which Asnes skis you skied so we are not tempted to buy them. That would be a constructive and helpful comment.

Re: Xplore on Ice?

Who would do such a thing.... Maybe people expert in this art… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clickbait I seriously don’t know but I have recently watched the movie « Ghosted » and there was numerous mention of the expression « get a room » to the 2 main characters… I think that would be a good sugg...

It's up to you but this thread is derailing like many others lateky If we let Manney dominate threads like he did as the grim surfer, I feel sorry for anyone lookin...

Re: Weigh In

I've heard it said before that a ski doesn't care how tall you are, just how much you weigh. In the same spirit... When I bought my MT51 from Norseman in Calgary they specifically asked for my weight and they choose the ski more adapted to it. Each pair of skis are not born equal so if a specialize...
