I donated the rest of what I listed above or traded for some good credit at REI - googles I still have tho. $5 plus $10 shipping? I hate to donate these as I think they will never be bought and used....

It's an amazing place if you can ignore the rich people politics and let the mountains talk instead. It's easily one of the best ski mountains in North America (when it snows) and nearby there are many jaw dropping BC and sidecountry lines. Summer is a real good time too for biking, hiking, 4x4, camping...

Good to hear x-rays are negative. I've slammed my knee on my ski or binding a couple times (and prolly everyone has too?) and it REALLY fucking hurts. One time I could barely walk afterwards....

Weird, I consider my 3 year old Hot Shot a great ski to push hard in variable conditions and I love how it carves and holds and edge. It's a BM charger in my book when it's hardpack, but I don't ski it if it's 6" deep (or deeper) and smooth underneath. If it's choppy under 1-6" of new snow...

I'm hitting Snowbird tomorrow morning if anyone wants to do some laps or say hi - DM me.

Gajin, sorry, I meant it must be a technique issue since his edges are sharp. I agree with you, no amount of (my own) mere mortal carving technique can overcome ice with a dull edge. And when I can't carve sketch ice with sharp edges I resort to windshield wiper turns which is technique too - often...

[muted reborn]

it's a technique and ego issue, sorry.

As a Snowbasin skier I'm pretty jealous of the skiing quality in the Alta video. You all might think it looks grim - but it looks pretty good from my perspective.
