Same…I’ve had such a long stretch of barely spending any money and I think it’s gonna end soon. Since ski season I’ve bought like three t shirts and socks.

Plus, new skis are always fun. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Text me. I’ll go with I'm not sure if you'd be going that direction for anything, but if you get to that light at Jonas and 115 (CVS) and turn north 115, it's clear as day. Like 1oclock position. The top is the (I think) southernmost point of Sierra view development. Map isn't recent enough, but the gray marker top left Sierra view.

momskeeztoo Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 I’ve really treated myself this year. New skis, bindings, goggles. Snagged a pair of Goretex ski pants on Backcountry for $178! I’m thinking maybe new boots, as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barb Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) Is that a split board or just a graphic line down the middle? nvm don’t see any clips at nose or tail answered my own question. Edited October 1, 2023 by Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprogram4 Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Not sure if I should say anything to Ride or Fed Ex…new board came and there was water in the packaging causing rust on the edges. Most of it was able to wipe off but still some marks left. Frustrating to open the box and see this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Law Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Gummy stone or half a run in the sand and it will be gone. Hate when stuff shows up like that but like 10 mins in the right environment and there is some rust on the edges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never cared much about rust as it’s gone after a run, but seeing it on a brand new board freaked me out 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s interesting learning about different materials. I’ve watched a lot of coal mining videos…they even make carbon fiber stickers for cars.
