  1. They are Donek only now and yes, they do demos.
  2. "I'm never wrong. Once I thought I was wrong, but it turns out I was mistaken" :D
  3. I saw you twice, but was unable to flag you down.
  4. Both are good. Shon at BootPro Specializes in bootfitting and has a very good reputation in Ludlow. Gary at Startingate has no shortage of fans on BOL, as I'm sure you've seen. Either way I think you're safe.
  5. If you're the guy on the black Donek Axis/Axxess, then that was me.
  6. I would guess about 100 in Vt, at least 3 or 4 work at Okemo. my brother and 3 of my cousins ride HB as well. If he did, do you think anyone would buy them? I know I wouldn't. He obviously has no loyalty to the sport that he played a large part in creating.
  7. I find myself in SoVt everyday! I'll have to stop in and hit the gates sometime. Is that only on weekends? Hope to see you on the hill. If you see a lift supervisor on a yellow Donek, that's me.
  8. Stratton, Stowe, Jay. Killington sucks, only good thing about it is the bars/nightclubs. You can find a good bar at most mtns. anyway.
  9. Tuckered out is not open yet, but they started to work on it yesterday so maybe it will be open by next week.
  10. Nice to see you too Gleb, maybe next time. I did actually get out on my board later that morning, but didn't see you anywhere. By the way, one of those Proton riders was a friend of my cousin. Weatherwise, it's getting better. We had a nasty ice storm thursday night, with over an inch of ice in some places on the mountain. Rain late yesterday, froze overnight. After tomorrow temps should stay below freezing for over a week at least (according to the forecast). Maybe I will see you next week.
  11. 33 degrees this morning, the forecast was for ahigh of 28 today. That sucks!
  12. That's pretty much what I was getting at. OK, 2 sizes, not 3. My mistake. The point I was trying to make was to get the right size shell (not only length, but width also) and the liners can be customized even if they are not heat moldable.
  13. We bounce back pretty quick. Okemo's groomers are some of the best I've seen, and I have worked at more than a half dozen resorts in the last 20 years.
