Re: Satchel’s Neophyte Nordic Backcountry Adventure Thread
Yeah this season has been sketchy and spotty here in Michigan as well. Do you have a nearby Alpine ski area that makes snow? When the fields and woods are barren it is an alternative. Yeah man, it’s a bummer all around. :-/ I do have some alpine areas nearby, but I’m unfortunately rarely in a posit...

Re: Olympic Snowboarding
Yeah man I got my quadrennial snowboarding viewing session in the other night and I was glad I did! Clutch is exactly what that was. I wonder how the boarder is doing who crashed out. The Japanese rider who put up a score to one-up Shaun White late in the game was fun to watch also. And Scotty James...

Re: Who's filed a tail notch into their skis?
ha sawzall! no problem getting the groove made. I guess what I meant was in the skimo tipclip department...a few years ago when I last looked at it you had to give Dynafit something like $60 just for the set of skimo tipclips which are just a rubber piece shaped like a short rope with a knot in the ...

Re: Who's filed a tail notch into their skis?
Yes that "ski-on skin rip" makes me envious...so much quicker/more skiing!! It's kind of the main problem with any skin without tail clips. Those are user friendly grips for skin removal. But with the notch style, this problem is solved in the best possible way! I should look this up on youtube. I '...

Re: Racing setup advice....
This is such a cool idea. I just realized that our youngest has one remaining race season before he goes off to college and my wife and I could mount Tele on some GS race race boards and hit the beer league with an all Tele team. That would be sweet!

Tail clips seem unnecessary for the type of skiing I've done, but that may not cover every type of skiing.
But ya gotta have tip clips. I'd be interested in filing a skimo style tip slot in a related project.
