  6. Vote on direction of next year's SES

    in Carving Central

    I think it's just great the way it is.

    I have a suggestion for the T shirt issue. How about just making different Bomber designs available on one of the shirt sites such as Cafe Press? Bomber wouldn't have to mess with them at all after set up and can add different shirt styles and designs whenever. The customer can order when and what they want without Bomber having to ship or have an inventory.

    Riding together is what it's all about and there are always people I wish I had gotten to have a few runs with, I leave the event always wanting to come back for more.

    The white board is a great idea and as far as clininics go they are perfect. I like the informal nature of them and if you can turn and stop you are welcome to participate in a clinic that you are interested in.

    James wants to bring a label maker and slap name tags on everyones helmet , but I won't let him:smashfrea

    Did anyone come home from SES with a cold/flu this year?

    Last year I thought I brought my death home with me. I had recovered enough to be at work on my appointed day, Thursday. This year all is well and we didn't bring anything except a little melancholy that the event is over. Jason B your music for the video is just a bit sad you know!

    It's not just kids that can be mean and rude. I got head butted and pole jabbed on the lift at Snowmass by a skier without one word of "oh sorry". Snowmass seemed to have hoards of people trying to see how close they could get to the front of you also, getting to the front makes them the downhill skier and any hit would at that point would be your fault and not theirs.

  15. Why do you want to ride blacks?

    I swear I don't mean this in a critical way...but it sure seems that everyone who rides blacks seems to think there's no more improvement they can make on a blue...that perhaps their technique has gotten so extraordinarily advanced that the only thing to do is go to steeper slopes. That true?

    Another thing to consider is that after you spend a little time on the steeper runs you actually feel more relaxed on the blues. Even if your not riding blacks all that well, your perspective changes and you might be more willing push your boundries a bit on terrain that feels safer.

  21. Quiver Security??

    If at all possible I carry my board with me, it goes into the restroom at Mt. Rose everytime. The only time it needs to be locked (Dakine retractable) is on vacation but even then I wish it could just stay with me. I feel even better if it's locked inside the car and hidden too, which is probably silly, but it would be devastating if someone took it.

    Klasson, Which was made by a guy named steve I think who was from Canada I just remember him showing up Stratton and doing well in the speed events. IF I remember right he made his own boards.

    Steve Klasson owned the Wave Rave shop in Mammoth. I don't know if he still does. He competed in big mountain riding events. That shop used to carry carving gear and we always made it a point to go there. I first demod there before buying a Nitro Scorpion at another shop in Mammoth. That was the prettiest board ever.
