Crew: BlueB - WCRM173 metal top, Maverick... , Scooby - WCRM 177 carbon, WCRM173W Saturday: Went early and organise the pass purchase for the group, yihaa more carvers next season on no limit Snow condition: Due to high moisture content the night before it was icy some section and crushty layer on most runs. Again the best was the Raven side. Clear up & stay most on 1st sun, with the Tanker Rocker 200LE. 3rd on it and lovin it this monster. Last run on lower trumpeter after the beer and chicken wing mey leg cudn't handle right before heading the carver out, I husted 4 of the bamboo poles :D on the deep soft slurpy...I know time to leave... Crucible doing great turn on his Coiler Race thru the mountanous choppy 1st Sun, I don't know where he get his legs. Hooplah was in tears he didn't have his "Maory" Tanker with him. Pierre looks great on the Never Summer, too bad his not on HB. Did some movie on Luka - wait report from BlueB. Saw Yoshii doing good carving on the new race board with crucible follow close by.

U lucky...I'm stuck RT

Wohoooo...FRESH POW and keep dumpin all day!!! Visibility early morning not great to non. Tried JJA for couple run , whack my side side face, my jaw sound like my chiro crack my spine when hit the slope . Move to RAVEN chair, haleluyah:ices_ange...fresh track, visibility great and no line up:biggthump Start 9AM all the way to 12PM on this side. Rome 173 great board, float under my 210 lbs, ride so well and it manuver tight turn when start to get choppy. It carved on steeper slope and it holds. Crew: xy9ine - Palmer Titanium 164(?), Ben - K2 156, Scooby - Rome 173, Tanker R200LE Ben & me stay at lodge for nice clam chow, burger & crappy poutine. By this time Tanker hasn't touch no snow we almost call off for the day when visibility clear up...continue 12.30 - 2.30PM. Tanker Rocker 200 Limited Edition, AWESOME board, rocker made this board turn tighter as if shorter board even as short as my 3800-169. Board just stay afloat on big chops hilly pow and choppy packed snow. This board saved me too many times. The rocker camber made the nose easy to tilt up, sometime I think nose tilt by it self, this way nose most of the time above the snow. I can concentrate to where I wanna go and the board just follow and deliver to destination. I almost can forget the crappy terrain under the board. When landed rigth in the centre on flat ground or on an angle the rocker camber absorbed nicely just like a leaf spring...At first I thought the board will be too flimsy but it change my opinion as soon as board slams to the ground, it stiffen when flattened...GREAT BOARD :biggthump Ben was following my track and he had a hard time, his comment : u looks so easy going thru those tracks... Pix: Ben on air at bottom Trumpeter RT(41)

Dang...that's awesome trailer . Can't wait for the full version. Cheers RT

Upss, bad "Uncle"...yeah I saw Luka rippin on Midway On the chair: I didn't notice at the beginning until I heard a couple on skiies sit behind me that having a high level volume conversation suddenly say/shout Whoaaaaa...(Really loud, honest:p) so I turn back to see what the... and I saw both are looking at Midway with the mouth open:rolleyes: (honest). Here what I saw: Luka just turn towards the chair with increasing speed and I can see he's widen his right feet and angulate and at the same time he bend his left knee and he carved!!!WOW!! To bad camera not in hand. I met Patrick in the lodge: Actually he recognise from my HB first.:rolleyes: What's cool, more beach boys turn in to Carvers:biggthump Good meeting u bud.

Which Winter Exhibition did u go... Thx RT

Over flow of snow, 150cm since Monday. Stop snowing in the morning. Hero soft corduroy, this time the groomers did a good job on every run. Too bad it clear up only for a few hours total. Then big dump came again at 1PM all the way till 10PM. Crew: BlueB, Cousin of Beagle, Scooby Toys: SG FR85T + PBP, Nidecker 167, Coiler PR179, PRIOR WCRM 173w & WCRM177, PRIOR 4WD169 PR179 stiff nose and too much pressure on it, nose wanted to dig in to soft corduroy. WCRM177 does differently and float with ease on its edge. The narrower waist on PRIOR also made it easier to switch. REPORT: PBP on SG will continue: Cheers RT(36)

Sorry to hear about yr injury, gd thing yr ok and the Coiler too :p I had to go thru twice... exactly one year apart minus 1day BTW your great neighbour must have a boring schedule ;) I have an idea: since our profile almost the same, why don't u send your new Coiler to me :D and I'll give u the free test ride reports, pixs & vid shots and return it when u are ready Heal well bud.

Memory Card: The availability in minutes left depends the image quality u set for recording, the higher less cap available. Get the High Capacity (HC) and the "read/writing" speed (Class = C), get at least the Class 4 or Class 6 = 10Mbs or Class 10 = 20Mbs or even higher. The faster the speed the less the camera stop for processing on continues shot/movie. http://camcorders.about.com/od/accessories/a/guide_to_SDHC_camcorder_cards.htm http://www.sdcard.org/developers/tech/speed_class/ What u have to concern if your laptop/pc can read HC memory card. Good luck and share the snow pixs/movie :rolleyes: RT

Here are the pixs :) RT
