  3. Saw this pic posted by an old friend in South Africa (mountains of Lesotho) - real artificial snow! 1 of 2 possible snow slopes in the country :? These are not the alps.
  4. It’s been too long, one of my favorite places
  5. Thanx edman Unfortunately this year’s bonus’s did not materialize - on hold for the moment. Still a short term goal but not for a while. When were you last there?

    Torn Meniscus

    I recently suffered a complex tear of my meniscus. I am currently exploring options after being advised by the orthopedic that I need orthoscopic surgery. Has anyone else suffered this and what have been the results from a hard carving perspective of either having or not having the surgery?
  12. MD you should post this in the Summer Carving - Minds in the water thread
  13. Buying it all seems seems a small price to pay for a set of fintecs and a boiler plate that you can select your self. ?
  14. Man! How steep are those takeoffs!!
  15. Looks like the longest is 164? Sorry missed the email Sean part!!
  16. Corey not sure if you like theatre but Manhattan offers great off and off-off Broadway shows for very little
  17. I have ordered an Angrry 160 from Bruce, also to be built over the summer. Not sure whether to go with the angry rose lady (availability not yet answered) or red lava. Original Graphic design is not one of my strengths.
  18. Just 1 or 2??? ? good luck with the new house. Busy indeed.

    Auctions?

    My personal opinion is that a big part of what makes this forum so special is the relationship that develops between people, and the trust that ensues. The current sale mechanism allows for a keen interest in following the classifieds but also a mellow interaction between potential buyers and seller. I feel that offering an auction takes a lot of the personal out of this, especially for people that are on budgets and may not be able to compete on price escalations. The seller potentially stands to make more but my sense is that everyone is both a buyer and seller at some point so this should wash out. my 0.02
  20. Time to start the 2019 new board porn thread?
  21. So the snow was no more leaving behind a hole and both active and promises of warmer activities were not filling it. The Forum however continued to provide some measure of continuity, and the long summer seemed ... ok. Then I ordered a new board and everything changed. I have not been so excited by a material purchase in the longest time. This purchase has bridged my season taking me forward mentally. The idea of discussing specs, finding a new binding and anticipation of delivery fills the future. Interesting. I think that for me this is the result of catering to a purely selfish activity that adds to my own life quality. Winter is coming!
