I have a feeling after I ride some b-squads tomorrow I'll be saying them...we'll see.
got clocked at 75 last year forerunning the mara/vara downhill at sugarloaf... granted i was in a speed suit and it was bulletproof ice, but that was through a turn, not even straightlining... I was on my 205 atomic super-g skis that fucking rip... the top guy that day was clocked at 81...
And location. I have no clue how fast I was going but one morning I was at the Basin and hit the mid section of the downhill when it was super buff 'roy. wow, scared myself in a big hurry.
I know you're in love with Snowbird and this event will forever stay there but it would be cool to hit up some of the groomers at Snowbasin and see how much farther the limits could be pushed. Methinks the Basin has more runs that are wide open. My $.02 (not trying to start another Bird v. "any resort" riot)
m103.
or any good hardwood vert lam ski with metal layers on top / below the core.
Stash-
GT and I have talked about doing that for some time now. I don't see why we can't do radar sessions at the Basin and the Bird this year.
Let's do it.
My Bandit XXXs seem pretty damn happy at speed.
Head 103's. Not 105's
How about sometime between March 10 and March 17 at Basin? April may be a bit late for Basin given the low snowfall this year. Also, that week may be the last time I'm in Utah for a while depending on where I end up getting a job... no more winter/spring break trips. :(
I think the DH might be a bit much... if you're really trying for speed it's great, but there isn't much room to scrub speed before heading off rollers, etc. Coyote Bowl is actually pretty good for getting speed up and it has a long flatish straight runout to recover on. Yea.
Edit: The NKOs are good for speed, though my bindings are starting to crap out.
mandatory equipment:
- helmets
- video cameras
- big clackin' balls
190 FFFs for sure
Love my '03 big daddies. 193, with the mounting plates, and before they softened them up. I think they'll do great at Auburn's 40m nordic jump this year too- tons of lift (grin)
BD's & Kastle 219 DH with D-Flex.
My votes have to go for:
201 Asteroids/DP's
198 G4's
190 W9.1FF/W105
192 777 (very under-rated ski)
193 Machete Hucksters. They become progressively more comfortable as speed increases, like standing on a plush carpet.
THIS IS ALL SUCH INSIGNIFICANT BANTER!
In Fact! (when do you actually ski "the fast stable" ski of your quiver?) "well now I do beacause ...well Im core" and some one asked ;)
