Re: Changes in Fischer lineup?

Been using Fischer's for a long time and will keep on doing so. But with throwaways, meaning nothing made in China. Bummer! TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

1o in the Village and 20o up in the Hills. When in the Sun and out of the winds a pleasure. When not, not! In the forest all was quiet with a dull roar where the winds were hitting but not where I was. Cruised some hardwood zones and each had its own magic. Felt so good just cruising with a soft tur...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

3-4 inches of powder on hardpack with a crushable crust that we did NOT hit. Powder was really soft and floaty, on 4 inches. cruised into the Highlands early and it was cold. 12o and windy. Sun though and where the wind wasn't pleasant is the word. Headed out and got to Boots place and had some brew...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Hey Rock! Miss you up here! Hope to do a decent ski from the end of the Highlands down to the main road. The upper part looking North was outstanding. Need some powder and if we get what you are saying might do it this weekend. Thinking Teleking is over in Maine on that tour where the tour masters p...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Scored one inch of powder and the cruising was good. Will hit some down today and see if the skis can handle those conditions on the down. Teleknob is our training hill with every kind of skiing a Hardwood Forest can provide. TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

from breakable crushable crust to glazed over crust with it turning into faster than Hockey ice. It ain't good! Headed out but turned around and ripped whips alongside the zone below Teleknob. Waiting for powder! TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Drifted into a zone that i hadn't skied in a decade. Avoiding whips was the ticket and if missed a price was paid. Only heard ravens out there and the ice falling off trees and snaping branches. Came across a wicked beaver lodge, had to be the queen's lodge. So Gonz. Good ski even though the whips w...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Headed up to Telecamp and it was good. Trees were covered and bowed to ice and very white powder fused to it. Everything being bent made for limited vision. Looking up was a deep to lite blue with the sun twinkling off it. Breakable, crushed crust with @ an inch or two of powder. Some places it was ...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Low expectations but headed to the Highlands anyway. Breakable, crushable, binding grabbing snow. Very grey but figured Dead Moose Pond would be a decent short cruise. Waxed up the older version of 109's, (78-60-700 and they instantly made the trip better. Tiny up then a slow angle ski down and coul...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Wagh! bad as I thought. Headed up with Teleking and Telekid. Purple wax was decent. Got to where thw up picked up and is moderately steep with lots of steep hardwood skiing. I did the easy part and departed the other two for low angle down below. They appeared a half hour after I got Back and had st...
