We used to live at Big sky and are headed back there this weekend to rip it up. My wife and I will be riding fri, sat, sun April 2, 3 & 4. Always looking for other carvers. Hoping to make turns with all of the great folks we havve met there. If you are going to be there give us a ring at 406-369-3212 and we can show you around the mountain or just carve it up. Robert and Lynn

Allie, one thing I have found is that most Alpine boards are set up for men who carry most of their weight in their chest. Women tend to carry more body weight in the rear. I simply mounted my wifes bindings about 1 inch a-head of center and that solved her problem with her GS boards (did not need to do so on her slalom set up).

Hi John, If you make it to Big Sky give us a shout and we'll show you the mountain. Big Sky finally got some snow w/about 10 inches in the last 24 hrs.

I have an old board of my wifes it is a 152cm Killer Loop with a set of oxygen step ins (do not require intec heels) this is an older set up but lots of life yet. $100 for both.

Big sky has everything you want except people on hardboots. A busy day has 5000 skiers and usually a daily tally of around 2500 people spread out over 3500 acres. With the new Lone peak pass you add Moonlight to the mix and you have huge terrain options.

Hi everyone, Big Blizzard this morning with about 6 inches overnight and another 3 this morning along with some wind. Anyway Lynn and I will be there on Sunday at 10:00 am at the ski check. Black coat,, red helmet anda 186 Coiler, Lynn will be in a greencoat, Grey helmut and a 164 hot blast. BTW just look for the only people on carving boards and it will be our group. Happy trenching. Robert and Lynn

FP Sold! Sold the FP 73 all the other boards are still available. Make an offer!
-
Chad, between the three of us we'll have you ripping heelside in no time! Tippy's Tumble and Silver Knife are the next progression. Look forward to riding. Kathy, I don't work for the resort anymore so I don't get any deals. Lots of folks park in the free skier lot w/ campers and as long as it isn't -20 like last weekend you should be fine. Robert
-
Lynn and I are planning on riding with you both on Sat and Sunday.It has been great! They have a new hi-speed on Southern Comfort which now makes ElDorado my fovorite ripper. Robert

Hi Jeff, I remember you and wish we had a chance to trench it up. I lived in Livingston for years (check out the side channel just below Depuis). I don't work for the Resort anymore so lost the good deals. If you want to come up and ride though just give me a shout. I too was bummed about Ambush but they are grooming a swath down Elk Park Meadow that is great. Robert P.S. Added a 17 3/4 inch Golden Trout to the wall last summer. LOL

Hi, My wife and I ride at Big Sky every weekend and would be happy to show any carvers on this site around the area. We have been riding here for about 8 years so know "where to trench". If you are headed this way give us a shout. Robert
-
Thanks! Thats a great board at a great price. My wife is only 5'2" and the 164 is her "Big Ride". If I didn't already have 3 boards in that length I'd be interested.
-
OK Bryan, Do you want to part with one of the 2 185"s you have?
-
Hi all, My wife is riding a Hot Blast 164 cm board built in 1998. This is a white board with min. graphics. If anyone has one of these sitting around that is in good shape I'd be very interested.
-
I wtb a 185 Identity. These boards were a cap constructed board made in whitefish Montana. I rode one a few years ago and have never seen another one. Anybody have one they don't use?
-
Hi Chad, My wife and I are riding the weekend of the 28th and 29th. Give me a shout and I'll give you a tour of the mountain
-
hey when I think about it I would really like that board. I'd offer you the Oxygen w/bindings and the Burton w/out the bindings. Would be happy to send pics if you are interested.
-
Sounds like a fun ride. I an looking for a bigger board and have an older Oxygen 164 GS board in great shape w/ a set of Burton Race plates I would be willing to trade. OR I would trade a 173 FP with Burton Race plates if you are interested :) I have a big open mountain waiting to be trenched! Robert

The Yellowstone is dropping has a slight green tint and the Salmon Flies are all the way to Yankee Jim Canyon. The time is now for some great dry fly fishing
-
My wife bought a used Hot Blast 164 this season. It is an almost all white board w. minimal graphics. She loves it and rides it great so I would like to by her a 2nd board if it is in excellent condition. Thanks Robert
-
decided to board to day and then get some fishin' in

Sounds like spring skiing here at Big Sky. We are about 10 minutes from the Gallatin River one of Montana's five blue Ribbon Streams. If any members want to combine carving in the morning with fishing in the afternoon let me know. Robert -
I am looking for new boots. Been riding BurtonFires and have been happy with them. Looking at the review section and can't find anything on the UPZ boots. They look like great boots. Any feedback from you all would be appreciated. It's tough since you can't just run down to the local shop and try on a variety of brands. Thanks, robert

Good Idea, My wife and I got married at the top of Lone Peak (11166 ft)at Big Sky, Montana on March 30th 1996. It was 15 degrees and about 10 inches of fresh powder. Right after the ceremony my new bride, myself and 70 of our closest friends proceeded to trash Liberty Bowl. BTW we still continue to trench it up together twice a week all season long.

Hi Kathy, My wife has some boards you can ride here at Big Sky. She is 5'2" and weighs 130. She rides a 164 Hot Blast and 156 Rossi . BTW I got you a reservation for Sat night the 19th. Robert
