You tried DHL??

Dammm! That's a Hot Ride! Don't have any fears about Karen or the board being in Russia...... I bought a board form Karen and he is legit and my board arrived as fast as a domestic shipment and was professionally wrapped with the utmost care! Top notch seller and all around good guy! Buy with confidence

This Is The Way................... Carving god and 2 time Olympian Mark Fawcett has spoken ~

So sorry to hear of your ills BB! Hope you are on the recovery end real soon!! Were relatively unscathed by covid up here in the White Mtns. of northern NH..... but I have my fears as VT ski areas have basically closed to out of staters unless they can prove a negative covid test AND 7 days quarantine at the ticket window!.....which most of those people can't afford to sit idle for a week just to go skiing for a weekend, so I fear most of those people will probably end up skiing/riding here in NH VT gets more than twice the out of state skiers/riders compared to NH .....now that scares me

I ponied up for a set of Intuition Power Wraps today and got them molded and out on the hill for a couple of runs. Wow! Instant Relief and more forward flex!! Guess add me to the Wrap Convert list

These guys always Bring It! Great riding, great scenery, great tunes and great filming!!!

Yep - molded and No heel movement during riding. Comfortable except for the jarring stiffness. Uh!...that sounds like some real Voodoo s--- lowrider! but the problem is not shin splint pressure...it's their Too Damned Stiff and every bump on this manmade crap snow sends jarring vibrations through my legs. Even with the top two buckle set on the loosest setting it's a jarring ride!

.......and details Scully! We need details! How'd you get to demo a Thirst? Was Mark at Crystal with a bunch of demo's? What's the specs/waist of this XC you bought? You demo any other Thirst models? How's the ride? What binding and boots you using on this board?

I have Intuition Power Tongue liners in my Deluxxe Track 425's and in this early season middle of the trail only grooming and nothing but man made firm snow they are killing my shins and calves from the jarring non flex ride over crusty death marbles! I acquired them last year and they took some getting used too but I thought they were very responsive and sort of comfortable, but that was in late season soft natural snow conditions with full edge to edge grooming. Anybody else experienced this?? I'm going to put the stock liners back in my 425's for tomorrows outing and see if it's any more enjoyable!

Good info and update on F2! I'd admit being skeptical of f2 brand as of late and specifically Speedster model not being a legit carving stick.....glad to hear they are still a source to be reckoned with!

Photos Please......

Scully it look's like you got the place all to your self! Enjoy your sole notoriety!

Hit the Powder Highway and don't look back! https://www.powderhighway.com/

1st dibs! PM sent Aw crap! I just noticed this is a Goofy build

Our Mtns. aren't even open yet here in NH......but my major concern at the moment is Vermont is telling it's ski areas to ask for proof that customers have adhered to Vts. travel restrictions guidelines (14 day quarantine and a negative covid test) to get on their Mtns.....which will make their ski areas off limits to 99% of out of stater's that usually come to Vt. Vt get's more total skier visits than NH and more out of state ski visitors than NH, like 60% of Vts. total number of visits are out of stater's! That definitely adds to the Packed ski areas being Covid Spreaders Possibility When Those Additional People Decide To Come To NH ....or Maine or whatever ski area they end up at. Ugg!

Happy Thanksgiving from the White Mtns. of New Hampshire Yes.so thankful this year for the roof above me, the family besides me and the food in front of me! The view from our backyard of Mt. Lafayette and Cannon Mtn. Ski area Peace ~

I'll play ~

Thanks for posting Turn of Mind Dave! Looks like the main rider is cranking on a Korua Escalator Split Plus which comes in 152, 157 and 162.......if you can find one! Did anybody identify the boots and bindings??

lol Love my Thor SG1 Super Gloves...........just now needing replacing after 5 years of Patting the Dog ~ Interesting background in your photos Dred .......you just had to show off your fancy spancy vacuum, did'nt ya.

Ditto! Geez! If it was a 160 X 20 waist it would Be Gone! ....but somebody buy this before my resistance wanes!

Also curious..........

Slap some Plates on that and let er rip! That's a great board! but even more responsive in hardboots! Ditto here! I ride hardboots with TD3 SW SI's plates on all my boards, for all conditions. I run two hardboot setups. One with softer flex Deeluxe Trac 225's for my pow setup on a Moss PQ60 and for hard charging I run Deeluxe 425pro on my K168, Swoard Dual 168 and Coiler EC SS 174 .......

Here's the 20/21 Moss Snowstick lineup. Looks like quite a few models are sold out....but I imagine the US dealers have em, like Backcountry.com, Evo.com and Gear West Ski & Bike http://www.mosssnowstick.com/2020-2021
