    Yo Lci!!

    Serious dumpage happening in the mtns. NOW... Forget about carving and break out the powder tools !!!! Don Feed the addiction...
  2. Serious dumpage happening NOW. Between the A.M. report and 11:00 A.M. it snowed 6"+. Had to take the skwal off due to too much side boot drag !!! Tomorrow should be EPIC POW !!! I'm unsure about where to ride tomorrow. Depends on who got the goodies.... Don Feed the addiction...
  3. Lovey reported 6" but it was 1+ feet in many places. The Duret Monstre Mono ruled today !! People just don't ride the trees here. Run after run of my own tracks in the trees. It just doesn't get any bettah. First chair on 6 and first tracks on 5 or 6 runs before resorting to the trees. Not too cold, not much wind.... HUH ? Tomorrow should be good....

  4. Denver Craigslist under sporting goods, or tickets. Don Feed the addiction...
  5. if I was any better I'd be a set of twins. By the way there isn't any conceit in my family........................................ I GOT IT ALL :lol: There isn't any other Skwal riders around here so I guess I'm the best. All joking aside, I'd say average, at best. Especially when riding with the LCI, those guys ROCK, and leave me in the dust. Don Feed the addiction...

    Powder....

    Went to Vail today. LOTS of people.... tracked out early. Went with Scott Gordon, monoskier. Resorted to lesser degree slopes and trees. and more trees, and even MORE trees. AWSOME stuff. DEEP . Ya'll need to get some of this stuff !!!!! Don Feed the addiction...
  7. While riding my Volkl Monocarver, (skwal), yesterday, Twice people who were about to load with me refused thinking I had lost one of my skis and thus would crash on the top/get off. Both times they saw me at the top clipping in and then realized that it was one ski. Another time I had a lifty refuse to let me on with one ski. "you need to have both skis on to ride this lift". Even after showing him the front binding and how it worked he made me wait for his supervisor to ok me to ride the lift. Don Feed the addiction...
  8. I'm running around 3* toe lift on the front, no cant, and around 8* heel lift on the rear foot, no cant. Also 90*/90* angles. I'm in ski boots which don't have the forward lean that an alpine boot does. Don Feed the addiction...
  9. I thought you might like it, and, as I cautioned you, watch your speed !! At 8M SCR it has a speed limit. I'm ridin' a Volkl Monocarver with a 14.5M SCR. It's a metal board circa 2001 that I found new this year. I mounted Catec OS 2's on it and It will ride @ "Alpine" speeds. I love it !!! So if you really like the Skwall thing find one of those. I think it was the only "Metal" Skwall ever made. Just like todays metal alpine boards it's damp, tenacious and has the ability to scare you BAD. Don Feed the addiction...
  10. My new Powder Monoski works awsome in the Deep pow without wax. Nobody can keep up. On the green/blue runs most of the boarders have to take a foot out and skate. Even skiers have to pole thru while I just glide by. Cold snow No wax. As far as other times/snow conditions I seem to have the best luck with a Flouro based Cold temp wax for all conditions. Even in warm/slush I out glide my mono buddies who used warm or all temp. Base structure is very important to the glide ratio as well, Prolly more important than wax. I hot wax then buff it in then brush it to remove the wax from in the structure in the base. Don Feed the addiction...
  11. I'd be in for Wednesday. Don Feed the addiction...

    Yo Lci!!

    Jeff you looked like a new rider by the end of today. I'd say you jumped several levels today. Great job !!!! Ink you are an asset to the Carving community. Patience and invaluable knowlege. I think all of us have benifitted from riding with you. As for the rest of the LCI ....you guys all rock, and riding with you all has upped my game for sure. I just LOVE riding up the chair looking at the CARNAGE a few carvers can do to a run. Don Feed the addiction...
  20. Saint Patrick's day in Dublin Ireland. Wifes idea. Won't let me bring my gear. U.K. then Scotland, then Ireland. Don Feed the addiction...
  21. The Monoski community had a GOOD laugh over that one. It is very impractical. Especially when he designed the Mono Pant to go with it. It might work but..... but some things make you go...... WHY I'm all for "thinking outside the box", but on what planet ? Don Feed the addiction...

    Yo Lci!!

    I'll be @ Beaver Creek for the Talons Challange W/ a group of Monoskiers. Carve on brothers !!! Don Feed the addiction...

  24. I'm a good example of that. I ride Monoski or Skwal, (Volkl Monocarver)... The Lovey crew has made me feel very accepted. For me , as well as everyone here, it's ALL about the CARVE, and the general STOKE of ridin'. They all think I'm some kinda' freak.... It's good to know that all my hard work has finally been recognized. This is a rockin community and I'm glad to be a part of it. Thanks Guys... Don Feed the addiction...
