We see it the other way here in Eastern Canada: Everything is cheaper in the states! Yep, beer is about half the price of what we pay here. Gas is about 30-40% cheaper. That's why we cross the border every week...! We've been doing so every week for almost 10 years and they still bug us with the fre...

Exactly. Science never proves anything. But theosophy does. I truly believe the rock is alive. I don't see any difference between me and a rock, we are both the same, as important. That's why I try not to break rocks. That's why I don't eat animals. But being alive or conscious doesn't mean "real". ...

Boot rack!!! AhahahAhahahahaahaha!
How come I didn't think of it?!?

Ok, I think this is gonna be my new obsession. I'll try to forget about XCD, music and girls. From now on, I will be rack-obsessed. Rack for this, rack for that... Racks! Racks! Racks!

I see socks as the very last step in the whole chain. Your very last chance of fine-tuning the control between you and the skis. I cannot say much on the matter since none of my boots fit me. So I basically use socks as shims. I have to use one very specific pair of socks for each of my boots. Somet...

Oh! You're back!

So how were the movies? Anything worth watching?

Alright, it's not perfect, I won't win the coolest ski room contest, but that will be it for this year..! Time to fix the roof now...!

Ahahahah! Yeah, free is always fun...! We don't always realize it, but the best things in this stupid world are free... I used to wake up at 3am to go do the tracks on the 4-wheeler for our local XC center... The wife would come at 5am to "test" the tracks... There's something very cool about skiing...

Interesting, very interesting thread. Great information CIMA! Great vid Marcin! We have a tele exercise here that looks like what this cool curly guy is doing. It really helps for certain people to get the idea of the tele turn. We, tele instructors, use it regularly here in Canada. I remember when ...

Living in a small ski town, I know that a lot of local kids will never be able to afford skiing. Of course they all dream about snowboarding, but turning them into XC could be really cool. Gear is cheap, and you can go anywhere for free. You can start skiing straight from your house in town and go o...
