Not yet. The lights don't come on until I give the word.

In the Ray Tuthill days those lights would have been on and Vista full of snow on a cold morning like today.

Blue never opened in November during the Ray Tuthill days.  Skifreak are you gonna ski this winter?

Second the motion. Bought new goggles this year thinking they were fine but couldn’t lift them without my glasses getting hung up. A little trimming of the foam along the sides should work but I’m not 100% sure. I’ll bring my old ones just in case but it’s better to find glitches sooner rather than later.

I will be. The new boots feel a bit tight so I'm hoping they arent too painful until they break in.

I usually wear them around the house prior to going out the first time.
I'll buckle them down as tight as I can stand it, flex them a lot, walk around in them, sit at the computer, watch TV, etc. for a while.  Do this daily or so to help the process progress faster.

WJW the Speedmachines.  You looking to keep up with @GrilledSteezeSandwich?

Looks like they have some new fandangled fitment gizmo for molding the liner.
Did Blue mention that and/or have the kit to do it?

Wao, wearing them around the house sounds hardcore. I'll be so speedy I'll probably be passing Grilled Cheese and Atomic all day long on my Speed Machines. 

Idk what Blue does, as I bought them at Buckmans using part of the tent sale proceeds from my sold RTMs and $50 boots from Craigslist I used once. I understand Buckmans does some technique for molding the liner - I might have them do that after a few days skiing in them.
