Where are these dopes? Maybe they just want to ski inbounds and occassionally go out, so the duke is a good product for them. Too obvious? Just because you and yeti apparently ski totally for image, doesn't mean everyone else does. Don't project your thoughts onto everyone else.Quote:

Hows that?
and you know as well as I do that a hell of a lot of people loved snowboarding in the 90s because it was so trendy and so much easier to progress at than skiing straight skis.
Hell - I tour mainly because I can't ski icy bumps anymore. Honest - I suck at it. I used to be pretty good, but then I got old. I'd much rather go ski some easy bc powder (in Silver Fork) when the inbounds get skied out. I just bought some Dukes a month ago too.
As long as this thread has mutated into a discussion of who's more deserving, I say all real skiers have to go back to Silvretta 404s and mountaineering boots or Ramer RATs with heavy alpine boots. That'd separate the posers from the real men. Too bad Yeti has my RATs
Skiski - untwist those panties already. Turn that frown upside down! :( < :)
Do you like long walks on the beach?Quote:

yeah re: RATS...
this is my big season to tour or not ski.
this is it. the only skiing I get here is fucking gay ass touring, I'm going to do it because it's skiing and I love to ski, but it's going to be like getting head from the prison shemale because if you're in prison it isn't gay.
I'm in this prison, and I'm going to pretend that touring here isn't lame. I'm going to be missing the lifts every single fucking step.
Well, I'm 40.Quote:

I'm taking my viagra now, just in case this thread goes that way.
This post is one of the many things about this thread that doesn't suck, er.........Quote:

No. 404s were horrible. Pures are cheating. Do you like Piña coladas? And getting caught in the rain?Quote:

I'm going to mail in for a bandana and a "no devil" button, then get really pissed when I get a return to sender.
I'm working way too much lately on shit that doesn't really interest me, so I'd rather do this :cussing:. To boot, I have not even put on skis this year (except to go to bars and impress chicks with by old school non-touring mode telemark bindings). So, once again, :cussing:Quote:

1. Yeti is a tourist who skis only steep stuff under the lifts to impress other tourist, who will hopefully mistake him for a local
2. Trackhead can't ski at all.
3. Straightchuter is a commie
4. you are a dick, and are apparently a lot older I would have guessed.
5. Only fags are in favor of a lift in silver fork. (I don't mean gay fags. I mean "look at me" fags like the guys who ride loud motorcycles on south park)
6. Skifishguy is apparently a huge pothead
7. I'm a dick too.
Fair enough?
but now those people love fat skis, so i can go back to being the quiet, pudgy kid no one talks to. maybe this fat ski trend will play out for Patrick though.Quote:

jer prefers fat sticks.
Guilty as charged.
Jesus, God. You homos really need to get some fucking snow down there. I'm going to get fat on all this buttery popcorn.
which is why i was careful to make sure I was putting down "look at me" fags and not gay fags by associating them with people who want a lift in silver fork. i may be a dick, but I;m not a bigot.Quote:

Last time I skied Solitude it cost $5. Can't remember the icy bumps.
I found these

feathers, today. Found some more buried under 10", resting onna crust.
It wasn't Solitude and it wasn't Silver Fork but...
Oh yeah,
this, again. Cadillacs Out West. I call it ski touring, not x country but uh... I'm over 50.
:the_finge
That last one didn't do it?
It's on TV, just like hockey. Still called ski touring.
:the_finge
an area with some great terrain, but a lot of slogging to get out of it.Quote:

only 2 comments (well maybe 3) to add from skimming the last 2 pages
1. i wouldn't want to fall with Yeti hot on my tail
2. yeti would definintely "break" the trail for you hackhead
3. if yeti actually starts touring this year, look the fuck out come mid to late season when we actually do get some snow ...
... please just stick to slapping the puck around J and leave us tight turners some snow :biggrin: ;)
