That terrain is super dreamy man- wow!
I love your laces.
Serious stylish customization going on there.
Your comments on the Quest Core are smart. If one finds a great cheap touring boot- cheap to replace!

Åsnes 1922, thanks for your responses. You sold me on a longer FT 62, however that purchase is a few years down the road. I really enjoy the FT 62 I currently ski. I will I need to put much more wear on that set. I just can’t replace something that works so well. You may need to request a commissio...

Maybe a fixed-length pole is the answer to finding 160cm. I generally stick with long fixed-length poles all the time, usually 155cm. Using them on the downhills doesn't cause problems for me.

So here’s my story... Welcome Stephen!! And thank you so much for sharing your ski story with us! Please do continue to share your ski story with us! I just like the feel of lighter equipment. I can truly relate to this- more and more actually. I am sure that if I had true mountains in my backyard ...

THIS IS SO COOL.

Getting buried alive!!!!!!
Over 40cm of heavy wet snow down already and it is STILL coming down!!!!
