  2. I've never had anything stolen, partly because I ride in the Midwest, and nobody knows what the hell any of our equipment is. I've never heard of anything being stolen at my resort(hidden valley ski area), but people are pretty vigilant. any way, I ALWAYS lock my setup. Would you rather spend the 15 seconds to lock your board up every time, or shell out another $2000 for your setup?

  3. I broke the finger when I caught an edge during transition from one edge to the other in a NASTAR course and fell forwards over the nose of the board. If I hadn't put my hands out I would have planted my face into the packed snow of the course. When I'm free carving the vast majority of my falls are to one side or other when I lose the edge grip from poor technique.
    Consider yourself lucky! that's exactly how I broke my leg!:biggthump
  4. I picked up this coiler 160 slalom glass a few months ago with the intention of riding it, however that did not happen. It was given a professional race tune, then put into storage. Built in 2008, for a 160lb rider. 19cm waist. glass board asking $300, I'll split shipping. email me at drew.ellison1 at gmail.com if interested or you have any questions. post-11553-14184239353_thumb.jpg

  5. Last night at about midnight harmless(as known on bomber) was involved a crash on highway 70 somewhere in CO. He came over a hill and swerved to avoid a parked semi and hit the median head on. he is doing alright, despite being taken away in a stretcher. he has lots of bruises and a cut from the seat belt. he was on his way to usasa nationals. due to his injuries, he will not be able to ride the rest of this season. please keep him in your thoughts.

  7. dude, hope you're having fun! why aren't you out here in snowmass for nastar? you've missed 2 FEET of powder this week, chris klug, and some great racing. I wish hidden valley did this... with the 10" of snow they're getting today, they could easily be open into april.

  8. alright, first you need to understand how the guns work. assuming you are talking about fan guns:

    the outer nozzles are water only nozzles. there is one in the very middle of the gun, inside it. it runs air with a little bit of water. The air is the only reason you can make snow above -10f.

    now: draining the guns and hoses only results in <10 gallons of water. if the ice is on top of the snow, it is because water isn't getting "nuc-ed" with the air, and drifting.

    water draining from the piles drains down to ground level and then runs down hill.

  9. *dropping my board off to get tuned at the local shop yesterday*

    one worker to me: dude, thats awesome! I love old stuff like that!!

    me: yeah,(insert usual hardboot schpeel here)

    worker one to worker two as I'm walking away: Dude, I think a few pros still ride oxygens

    worker 2: nah, softies are much better than hardboots.

    worker 1, true, there much better for racing and groomers.

    I stopped for a second, about to correct them, but then I let them feel smart.

  10. I currently ride a 159 rossi shannon melhuse pro ride. I am looking at a 160 sl coiler built for a 160lb rider, but I am only 125lb, 5'6". I can run my rossi on a tight sl course, and run her down gs no problem. I came up with 11.4 for stiffness for my rossi, according to bruce's scale. the coiler would be used with TD2 si and blax boots. Would the coiler be to much for me handle:confused:
