While it may be too early to start the new thread, it's never too early to keep your avy mindset tuned up.

^^ It took me a minute to understand your reference. Fuck no, you are NOT starting the 2020 thread. Previous suggestion recanted.
All right, it's done. It's November now. This needs to happen...
New thread...
https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...IC-SCHMANDEMIC!
So howsabout "The Official 20/21 Tahoe Ski Snowboard Thread. Plus Discussion of Sierra vs Sierras Terminology or Why Powdork Left TGR"
If I start the thread I would be obligated to call it "Unofficial" instead of Official...

Good shops in Reno for a mount/tune that would make an ex-racer happy?
There are only 3 shops in Reno:Quote:

But I know a lotta race folks who have switched to Smooth Rides (again, Truckee) they also do a great job and cater to racers.
I have had tunes done at Start Haus ($$$) and Smooth Rides and both have been solid...
I have no experience with the Reno shops, though my former co-worker who owns Snow Wind is meticulous in regards to his own gear, so can only assume he would give a meticulous tune to his customers...
skis and more in Truckee--but Google says temporarily closed
smooth rides web site says temporarily closed for covid.
