    I'm curious as to how many Spatulas Shane may have broken himself. There are tales here and there of people destroying them, but damn if it will slow me down.

    I watched funken break his on a silly little drop at... hm.... Brighton, maybe. I was shocked they went so fast.
    It's idomatic, beatch.

    I now feel that the torch (flashlight) to bad_roo's noggin' was not at all my fault, as I previously suspected. Instead, I believe it was a cunning attempt at revenge on the part of all inanimate objects. For one shining moment, the objects came out on top.

    Sick and ashamed and happy (and either that or the browncloud made me do it),

    I broke my tip turning into a rock wall at Snowbasin. Didn't really surprise me. This left a whole in the side of my tip. I would assume too much water got in and thus about a year later the topsheet delammed.

    If Shane and Huckasoreass can ski and huck with confidence on Spatulas, I kind of have the feeling I can as well.

    I'm sure that by now everyone knows how much I love my Spats. And I bought a spare pair....just in case.

    Mine broke on day 3, cracked core right in the corner of the tail. I believe it was from a 10ft rock that I dropped with speed and fell in the 25ft range, landed pretty hard, but not that hard. I was totally bumped. Luckily it's still skiable for the moment, but i bought a backup single.

    I think K2 should give a pair of pontoons with anyone with a legitamently broken spat, they'd get customers for life and the pontoons would sell even hotter. Though, those of us with broken spats are the pontoon market.
    Go Sharks.
