AtomicSkier

my dad always jokes around how i picked the two most expensive things(well ones a sport, golf of course ). skiing and golf. but its what i enjoy, and i do pay for a decent amount of my equitment, pretty much split down the middle between my money / my parents. skiever forever, like you said ski999 had to be UNDERprivledged as a kid. There is a certain satisfaction in paying for paying part of your stuff. I mean i couldn't afford the more expensive parts of skiing (boots, skis, and for golf my clubs) but i'll always pay for things like poles, gloves, goggles. and im pretty sure skidude does too. but is it realistic for someone without a full time job to pay for things that are $400+? he talks out of his ass, cause hes jealous of the dude. i'd like to meet this guy. i'd like him to meet the front of my car, while hes at it.

Sib is one of the few people that I know that's happy just plain old skiing every day. Actually, if you recall, I have a vert fetish that means that "waiting my turn" whether it is to race or use some engineered park feature is not high on my list. I am trying to control that "rack up the vert" urge a bit by pushing myself off piste now and again, but I still make sure I have my "day" in before I start fooling around. control the urge! don't force yourself to get the most vert, just have fun off-piste...remember, its better to be off piste, then piste off (or piste on)

i dont know why they love yellow so much

well when atomic comes out with bindings that are electronic, you know its a good year....haha

or how about killing me? that was the closest call i've had on skis, besides the day w/ greg and ski999 when i mowed that girl down

everyone loves a pass to blue mountain

Yes, indeedy, they are great photos But, they always make me jealous me too, theyre amazing...

i assume you have laz-e-pass (ezpass) and never think about tolls, cause i dont either, but they've really jacked them up....a midcounty-lehigh valley is well over $2 now . Tell skidude i'll give him a lift in the M5 I plan to do some weeknight NASTAR this winter, because i ski at blue on the weekends

the better question, where IS skidude?

they need to blow snow over the plastic crap to cover it up....

now that was funny

i thought i read you didnt understand the word "give"

well how about you give me your pair of 9.16's?

ski, your a crazy nut, can i buy your GS:11's from you?

what type atomics? because my gs:9's are helluva lot lighter then my friends 1080s

ill drive skidude...you should see the new car my brother has, had it up 155 the other day going down to penn, the car was literally being sucked down to the ground . maybe skimom can come along too ima gunna get you partying when im down there

i like to think of it like driving a car. The light car needs less power, has better handling, and better reponse. The heavy car is numb, plows through anything, needs more power, and handling is not as sharp. I wouldn't think a heavier ski would make ya go any faster, maybe slightly cause your adding to your overall momentum. Ski999 said his GS:11's are amazingly fast, and they are a pretty light ski. For skiing hardpack you want the light ski for lightning fast transitions

thats closer to penn then cb is...ill go one wednesday night or whenever its at bear creek ill race you there, that'll be the true winner

putz, everyone has a limit

because i ski at blue

if skimom buys me a lift ticket, cause i sure as hell am not wasting money to goto camelback on the weekends, when jib greg and i could be at blue. so if she wants to race, pay for my lift ticket

They are more or less handled on a per-resort basis, with guidence from corporate. But the message boards are hosted by Snowboard.com (sorry, shameless plug). We have an agreement with Intrawest to host skiing and snowboarding message boards for all their websites. It's been very successful thus far. there is no need to plug snowboard.com here, there is a reason to plug PASR at snowboard.com

im all in we'll race at blue, since she "hates the snow conditions".... Ski999 knows i can make the turns, and i do recall greg saying "holy crap jeff, you were making tight slalom turns, and the kid next to you in a tuck couldn't pass you" you better watch out.

ill take on that old, i mean young women anyday. She's gotta make sure she doesn't break her hip skimom
