Maggettes, what are you skiing on this season?

[bklyn]

no offense but how much do you girls weigh?

i ski 160 Xscreams w/ naxo prinzess (5'4",125lbs)

haven't skied a 170+ since the skinnies

Srlsy ladies.......why won't you post your height and weight when mentioning what skis you ride?? The guys do it, and it helps others when picking skis. Your weight and height is just as important as your skiing ability when it comes to choosing your skis.

Why are you still asking the question?

Between your first post and your second there were 4 responses with what you were asking for. How much more do you need? In an 11 month old thread, do you really expect everyone to respond again? Or go back and edit in these details?

You got the nice answer from Girlski. It wasn't the point of the thread. Our responses are not rooted in sensitivity about our bodies, you're getting JONGed because you insist on asking your question again after it has been answered for you. Every single person who responded with details is taller and heavier than you.

...Ashley is asking the questions in this thread and having been skiing since I could walk I can hang with the best of em...

Good for you. Post some stoke JONG, all the other maggettes have.

Getting this back on track...I don't know why I never posted to this thread last season. I won't be adding to my quiver this season. I'm happy with what I've got, but the Salomons are starting to wear out.

167 K2 Phat Luv with Naxos (the green model, it's a few years old now)
165 Salomon Scream 8W (everyday ski)
168 Salomon Equipe 10 3V race (rock/iciest East Coast days)

I plan to demo a lot this season. There are a lot of new and innovative designs out there now.

[altagirl]

while i understand most people feel this way we do not. we love to do EVERYTHING together. no shit, we like each other that much. we even think alike so that is why we do not log in and log out. all i have to say about that.

Okay, that's nauseating. And my husband is Mr. Altagirl, for Christ's sake.

if it is important to know who is speaking you can always ask.

NO ONE is going to expect that there are two people sharing a user name. I had no idea that was the case and I'm probably here as much as anyone. There's an easy method of us understanding who posted what - you get your own user name.

i think it is so fing funny that i got so many panties in a bunch asking how much us girls weigh

Well, get over it. Even if you had all that info, unless you've seen the maggettes in question ski in person, know their style and ability, where they ski, what they use each ski in their quiver for, what their body type/build is, etc. - it's just a bunch of numbers. If you're looking for a height/weight ski size chart, go find one. If you are wondering if you should be on the same ski as Bklyn, you should go ski with her and then you'll know. I've skied with many, if not most of the women who posted here, and just knowing what they're on is useful. (Though not nearly as useful as knowing what types of skis and lengths I know from experience that I like personally). Knowing height/weight/ski/ski length of random people is honestly fairly useless info.

Not to mention, this is an old thread and it's pages of info that's now probably out of date. I haven't even bothered to search back and see what I posted last year or how accurate it is.

But anyway, this year I'm on:

185 Praxis
183 Gotamas
178 Hippy Stinx (tele)
175 i.M.88
174 Phat Luvs (touring - though I'm planning to sell those, put the touring bindings on the 167's in hopes that kick turns will be easier with the shorty skis and my knees will like that better.)
160 SX-9 (which hopefully will not see any use at all this year, unlike last year where a cheap pair of ice skates in the shape of skis came in handy.)

And yes, I'm bigger than you.

Dude you make me laugh. So I am feeling totally out of touch here...Praxxis??? How come I have no clue what this ski is yet all you girls do?

[schindlerpiste]

This year, Ms. Schindler is riding:
167 Phat Luv w/ NX21
168 AX4 w/ P12
165 M:EX w/ Neox 412, and
161 5***** w/ iPT motion markers

Bklyn: If you're in UT this year and want to try out a pair of 179 Brohemouths w/ NX21, give me a shout out.

[baxter]

179 soft bro
179 medium brom
169 seth vicious
155 volkl race tiger sl
178 volkl race tiger gs
(maybe ARGs?)

[altagirl]

Basically lightweight Spatulas - that had a pre-order deal for like $400. And in addition to the lighter weight, they come in several lengths and graphics to choose from. Yay!

From Praxisskis.com:

Continuous Curves Rocker: The rocker has no flat spots. Instead it flows from a greater curve in the tip to a lesser curve in the mid and tail sections of the ski. This adds to the skis variable turn radius and allows the ski to dive out of a turn with a variety of projection.

Reverse side cut: Consistent reverse side cut for a smooth variable turn radius. Minimal taper in the tip keeps the tips on the surface and allows for easier traversing.

Bullet proof 9mm UHMW sidewall construction with a poplar and ash wood core

360 degree 2.2 mm edge. Thick and durable sintered bases.

The flex pattern has a solid oversized underfoot platform with short plush section in the tail and a softer tip. The tail makes the ski more forgiving and the softer tip makes the ski want to surface in powder when pressured.

Choice from 5 different graphics will be available on 07/08 models.

Available in 3 Sizes

175cm 117,121,111

185cm 124,136,131

195cm 124,136,131

My newest (I love these skis!):
175 Movement Black Roses mounted with freeride+ (Touring; all mountain)

Others:
173 Volkl explosiv CMH with 912 (Shredding pow)
160 Rossies ViperX (Ripping on groomers)

How about... bigger than you?
How about... stronger than you?
I'm an amazon. A Zulu Princess.
Bigger titties, bigger ass, bigger thighs, bigger biceps... bigger skis!

This year I'm getting a 185 praxxxxxis. I might also get some 179 phat bros, just because I want them.

Some of these women are amazing skiers and if you do not know what to buy for yourself... you are not in their league. Do not compare yourself to Girlski, Kellie, SheRa, AltaGirl, Cloudpeak, Mtnbikerskierchic, Fineline, Monique, Lynx. Fuck name dropping. Do not compare yourself to US, any of us! Our personal choices are beyond your ken.

For the guys who are shopping for your woman, sister, mother; describe her and her ability, and I'm sure that someone who is similar to her will step up and make some suggestions. If the woman you are shopping for is a beginner, or intermediate, knowing our height and weight will not help you at all.

You are my new hero, oh yes.

That sounds waaaaaay cool.

Maybe I'll trade in the spats one of these days. I want to hear how the skiing is on these first.

Bklyn and AG - I love you guys.

But anyway, this year I'm on:

185 Praxis
183 Gotamas
178 Hippy Stinx (tele)
175 i.M.88
174 Phat Luvs (touring - though I'm planning to sell those, put the touring bindings on the 167's in hopes that kick turns will be easier with the shorty skis and my knees will like that better.)
160 SX-9 (which hopefully will not see any use at all this year, unlike last year where a cheap pair of ice skates in the shape of skis came in handy.)

AG - You may actually see a pretty big difference in kick-turns, etc with a shorter ski. I went from a 174 K2 Dawn Patrol to a 170 Verdict at the end of last season for touring and I was shocked at the difference. Weight and pure skin-to-snow surface area probably had more to do with it than anything, but I was amazed how much easier it was to whip those Verdicts around a tight switchback. I thought the 170's would be a little short for me, but they've been great. I'm not much of a powerhouse skier though, especially in the backcountry. It's all about cadillac powder, baby.

I didn't know you tele'd! I just started learning last year and I hope I have time to improve this year. Have you ever done a clinic up at Alta? I was considering it this year...

Yeah, I don't tele all that much, but I did a semi-private lesson at Alta once (group lessons where there ended up being 2 people), and a 2 day clinic at Snowbird - like 3 years ago? I'm halfway decent on consistent snow and I suck in crud/crust/ice patches/etc. But let me know when you want to tele and I'll bust out the gear and go with you! It's fun to play around with anyway.

This thread is dripping with testoterone.

C'est le Bronx

[PNWbrit]

Estrogen kicks testosterone's butt.

It's just testosterone is usually too stupid to notice.

[philippeR]

C'est le Bronx

Awesome french colloquialism.
I'm owned.

(And will now retire to the men's club)

[Sluff]

189 Seth Pistols

Oh oh oh! Can I get in on this?

[altagirl]

Oh oh oh! Can I get in on this?

I was just thinking that. We'll have our own girls tele day!

[erica_z]

This season I'm on:

167 K2 Mt. Baker / salomon bindings (alpine)
167 K2 Mt. Baker / fritschi explorers (randonee)
179 Bro supa-softs for the untracked pow

152 Burton Raven for when I knuckledrag

looking to get some 169 Bro stiffs sometime this season as well. I looked hard at the K2 Coomba, but the SAC deal for the 2nd pair of Bakers was too good to pass up.

[tradygirl]

Oh oh oh! Can I get in on this?

Heck yes! I think with three of us on tele gear we could be classified as "a hazard to the safety and health of the resort".

[altachic]

I was just thinking that. We'll have our own girls tele day!

Don't make me start teleing.....I love hanging out with the girls but I don't tele!

[utsnowgirl]

Heck yes! I think with three of us on tele gear we could be classified as "a hazard to the safety and health of the resort".

For sure!

I don't really ski much at all, but I always have a good time flopping around the hill on tele gear!

[GoNads]

Figured I might as well post a photo...

[AsheanMT]

i should let it rest, but i have to reply......

Good for you. Post some stoke JONG, all the other maggettes have.

i have done this. got a really wonderful poll going on if i was a girl, guy or transsexual. spent last year knocked up so only played on mellow tours.

Okay, that's nauseating. And my husband is Mr. Altagirl, for Christ's sake.

don't mind making you sick. people spend lifetimes and don't find what we have. a bff

Knowing height/weight/ski/ski length of random people is honestly fairly useless info.

i think its cool that physics doesn't apply to you

i will close my posts (ash) with for everyone

i will meet anyone on the hill, especially if you buy the heli
