Re: Sbounds...leathers

14 inches with every branch and limb holding @ 6-8 inches. White world with lite powder on top and heavier stuff down below. Great stuff! My trip was a mile in on a very easy main logging road. Saw telekings track and he went up on a ridge and scored some wonderful turns even if I didn't see them. I...

Headed up to the Highlands and headed South and broke out to Dead Moose Pond. generally there was a foot of really good snow. Had about 10 inches of blue on with a longer section of green.

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Decent low angle 6-7 inches of heavy on the bottom and light on the top powder. Good for conditioning. Will hit the Highlands for some easy logging road skiing with 4-5 hundred verts. Good start. TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

last couple of days been skiing my back yard with @ 4 inches. Didn't even get any grass leavings which shows how heavy the snow is. Felt great making those rounded turns. Sunday hunting ends and off we go to the highlands. TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Thanks, Fisheater! I like taking pictures but setting them up on a site is a nonstarter. TM

Re: Does nordic camber make a difference in deep snow?

In order to go up you need wax, bones or something to cruise. On the down you want breakaway speed to initiate anything you do. Double camber allows the ski to "cruise" efficiently. In other words, less drag as the camber allows the glide part of the ski to fly. My two cents! TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Really nice sun rise this morning. Other day while watching Boots long drive bounding along an undulating fairway a dark shadow flew over the trees behind us and swooped down and followed the contours and "beaked the ball" and the black apparition flew off with a golf ball in its mouth. Man, it's gr...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Three inches of wet snow which allowed for some easy turns in October. Like that!. Wonder if Teleking shot some over at his house. Suspect he did. Yeah. Telekid might have done some too. Will see! TM
