A few years ago I arrived at Solitude and was getting out of my truck and noticed my friend digger, jr. and his wife parked nearby. A car full of snowboarders noticed their boards and said, "I think those are Skwalls," I snickered but explained him the difference when I pulled out my Coiler Nirvana.

After my 2 hour drive to Snowbasin which normally takes an hour last Monday, waiting in the line for a shuttle from the parking lot I made some some small talk with a young man behind me. He looked me over and saw my Arbor A-Frame with Salomon Caliber bindings with a mild carving stance and asked, "How old are you?" "I'm 59." He replied, "I hope I will be riding at 59 too!"

That is a very good question. I purchased this from a fellow member. I have only put a few rides on it. Stiff camber as I am around the 200 lbs. range P.S. There is one interested party ahead of you.

The 2nd Board kit from the Monster has been sold. digger jr. asked me question that I did not pick up on initially. "Is that a protective sticker on the Monster?" The picture showing the scratch in the middle of the top sheet I peeled back a little. There is a bright, shiny new top sheet underneath. Debating whether to remove it or not? Thoughts? I only had a handful of rides on it. I like to rotate my boards.

digger, was there a top sheet protector?

No, but my Kemper Apex does. I'm riding it in my picture on a slushy pow day at Snowbird. Riding Salomon Malamute boots with stiff Salomon bindings and Palmer Risers.

Like my name says "Why drop a knee, when you can drop the body?" But, seriously, I enjoy watching a good telemark skier.

Slabber, next time let's try Sundance during the day. I will take you to the backside. CB let's meet before the end of the year. I think Snowbird will be open till the 4th of July.

I have a pair of receivers I will send you if you pay shipping.

Ouch! Had similar experience at Snowbird for a Company Ski day. On first run, started to lay down a few turns in flat light then hit a patch of ice and slid until the nose grabbed and cork-screwed me around. Had an ankle injury, minor but enough to end my day. I feel ya!

What did you think of Sundance?

I had that happen to me at Sugarbush in Vermont. Sent there on a business trip and my board didn't. Received call at 6 a.m. that they found it. Showed up at hotel at 3 p.m. I would have driven to get it.

Senators Fan?

My Gold Passes fell through. Monday good for you? When you drive up the canyon approximately 2 miles the entrance is on the left and if you blink you might miss it. There are two parking lots accessing both lifts. Lower for Outlaw and Upper for Jake's.

I'd say I have a Tom Burt Avalanche set up for powder. A little soft for me. Inviting all Utah Carvers to visit Sundance these Weeknights! Night Riding! Lay down these trenches!

I have a Coiler Monster 182? Swoard 175? (Sorry edited this)

I have a Donek Incline 181 set up with Stiff Soft Boots. Oh wait can I post my Nirvana here?
