Yes, just a break from routine. I still want to do big carves but I don't want to always HAVE to be carving. Some days I will definitely still use the Coiler but other days I may just want to carve some runs and not other runs.
Thanks all for the imput! I chatted with someone at a shop today and they are recommending the Gnu Ladies Choice in size 148.5. Seems tiny - I may have to go up to the 151.5 or 153.5 (I'm not sure what is with the ".5"s.) For boots the Ride Hera and bindings Burton Escade or Lexa. No decision made yet!
I still love my hard boot setup with my Coiler but if I were to also get a soft boot set up what would people recommend for a woman? I have heard that the Lib Tech boards have great edge hold and that Roxy is the lady version. Appreciate thoughts. Thanks!
I am willing to sell the bindings separately. Please email me at patricelala@yahoo.com to let me know how much you are offering to pay and to discuss further.
Thank you!

January 5-8 might be tough because of being off from work earlier that week. I'll make it work for whenever you plan it because last year was so much fun and how often do you get to go up on the 6 pack with all lady carvers? And have a wonderful dinner at Cheri & Shaggy's place?

Parking at Snowdon allows you to quickly get on the Snowdon Quad (a.k.a. "The Couch" as it is a sloooow chair). Snowdon has some great carving trails. If you go to the K1 base parking lot you go to the end furthest away from the gondola. If I want to go into a lodge to put my boots on then I'll park on the K1 side of the lot. But if I was in a trailer and was parking at the Skyship gondola then it is easy enough to get to any part of the mountain.
We are heading up to Killington tonight and will be out on the hill on Friday (March 4) and Saturday (March 5). If you are going to be there too please let me know - channel 11-33 or cell 203.362.8183.
