  4. It was most excellent! The tall one was posthole ing badly thru the mid section of the mountain so we took longer than last time. The ride down was sublime tho. dropped into the 5 4 line and then followed your tracks thru the trees into lower tony. I dropped upper corkscrew from there which was deep and creamy smooth. Great run!
  5. I am working on getting a for sure partner for a 10 am start. on my cell 2535420
  6. tuesday morning would work if its still worth doing john. let me know today sometime and I will get packed up and ready to go.
  7. I read somewhere that you have to have a 75% kill every year if you want to reduce coyote populations. They breed like rabbits and like rabbits they breed more when the population is under pressure. The article stated that anything less than 75% kill would actually increase their numbers. My years of hunting them seem to bear that out. you can't get rid of them better to enjoy them.
  8. I assume you refer to the wolf killing of a woman recently in alaska. The local natives took to the air en masse and killed over 50 wolves and brought the carcasses to the local biologist for confirmation that none were rabid. The local media blasted the rabies assumption immediately. They were confirmed to be free of rabies and not habituated to humans although that is an elusive term. Wolves in general will not feed on anything that mom didnt teach them to kill. The one exception to that rule , as described by a russian wolf biologist, is that they do learn to take new prey but very slowly. The idea is that they will watch a new prey for as long as three years before attempting to attack it. The key to preventing humans from becoming an item on the menu is outdoor behavior that a wolf would find threatening. Basically if we act like the big predators we are they will leave us alone. IF we begin to think and act like prey we are in danger of becoming a viable prey option for them. A friend of mine is working currently on a rig very close to where this all happened and the biologist is also a friend of his. I heard about this incident long before the newspapers did. relative risk from coyotes and dogs is no doubt proportional to the relative numbers of each species in contact with humans.

    M-Flex?

    can the hydraulic dampener be that much more efficient than say a metal board? lots weight.

    M-Flex?

    And I thought my set up was heavy! looks cool but not sure the weight gain is a fair trade off.
  11. depends on the report I guess! early would be better but not if its froze hard:lurk:
  12. what time this afternoon john? I might be able to squeeze it in. I could definitely go saturday. 253 5420:biggthump
  13. I think I have a NOS 3800 in a Dynastar I could be talked out of. $200 shipped IT has been mounted with bindings but doesnt have any days on the mtn as of yet.
  14. mine are stiff between the feet and the tail and quite soft in the nose.
  15. SPiderTech kinesiotape. hamstring spider would amaze you check it out
  16. +1:biggthump Great board! the first run osins were weak. this particular model was fine. I have several of them and ride them hard at 275# they hold up fine. seal the crack with super glue (it flows into the cracks easier than epoxy ) and it will be fine. If it is a longitudinal delam and you feel it flex laterally when cutting hard then go with a riser plate that spreads your weight to the edges better. keep riding it they arent making any more of these beauties!
  17. I have a madd BX in that range all carbon model no butterfly
  18. :lol:http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6365781/:lol::lol:
  19. oh its his alright!:lol: we were riding with dual traffic cones all weekend! very Flamboyant!
