Re: I'm done.
But if you want to go back to the very beginning, it’s when Lowangle Al was admonished for being rude to Stephen after his injury. Didn’t know they were an item att. That’s when the dog pile started. This is where it last left off… https://www.telemarktalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=5950&start=70#p610...

Re: I'm done.
Well lookie here - Manney's got a thread going that's got some importance to himself. It'd be a real shame if something happened to it: say, something like it got derailed or sent off-topic. And this is what started it. Just sayin. Tried to do something productive…. Not giving these assholes any qu...

Re: I had no idea you could go downhill on XC skis...video proof
Yeah, right. The same guy whose “Current job is to take my recreation as serious as I did my past employment.”, who enjoys “BC with a focus on downhill perfection”? Not seeing the alignment here with a guy whose policy is to avoid any level of meaningful exertion by walking on skis. Nobody should c...

Re: Trail grooming
It is that time of year when I clear our the brush along my favorite backwoods trails. In our area, that mostly means using longhandled loppers to cut out the beech whips. I try to cut down to the ground surface and not leave “pungie” sticks that would trip me up later. Also, I trim back branches a...

Re: I had no idea you could go downhill on XC skis...video proof
It’s not just the speed… it’s the lamentably low level of ambition that accompanies it… along with the constant questioning of others abilities and pushback on gear choices. It’s the whole package… one of your crew. So a retired guy goes out skiing with his wife for a fun ski at a leisurely pace an...

Re: I had no idea you could go downhill on XC skis...video proof
You can walk in snowshoes at 3.5 mph. Doesn't really affect your argument or point much, but this would require a very specific snow condition. In general, snowshoeing will be much slower than walking on dry, firm ground. You're right, though, 4mph skiing on flat is certainly not something to aspir...

Re: Military Ski Master List (w/ Photos)
More data being posted soon. Ugly data, containing filthy facts from ski manufacturers etc. Scandalous photos showing troops on skis, doing things in the snow that are unnatural to @connyro… like sliding, turning etc. Young skiers showing off their young bodies in disgusting displays of athletic ab...

Re: I'm done.
Bothers other ppl… enough to quit. Me? Not so much. Find it amusing… in different ways. Not terribly clever though. If you were smarter, it would at least be interesting.
