    Astounding. To paraphrase HillB quoting MR. JOHN DEERE, "WE KNIFED THE PHUCKING PLACE" Today was probably one of the best days of the year for me, I have finally gotten over the trepidation i was feeling for most of December. Riding my 8rw has opened up a new world for me, transitions are mindless, I think about turning, and it just happens. I see a serious garage sale in my future, enough with the Doneks taking up space in my board rack. Our sizeable crew, consisting of Carvin' Marvin, Ice, 007, Inky, Katie, Lance, Kneel and his son Quinn, Sandy, OddJob and myself laid waste to huge swaths of the mountain today. Working counterclockwise from west to east, we destroyed the practice field, Turtle creek, Roulette, Mambo, and Richards. We left our mark on Spillway as well, but it was firm enough withstand the furious onslaught of our largest, most aggressive and determined riders. I'll take another shot at it next week. I think the entire crew was left with a combination of wind and sunburnt teeth from the permagrins we all had by the time we were finished. It Was An Awesome Day filled with off the Charts Riding Mario
  3. Same as carving, I just moderate my inputs, its been a while since I've seen a real (12"+) pow day
  4. I would love to meet and ride with you, but I don't get back from montucky until the 12th, and I have to return to the adult/responsible world for the remainder of the time you are out here. Enjoy the 'boat, and colorado, I haven't looked back or second guessed my escape over 30 years ago Mario

  6. bigger guys can shear the support ears off of intec, which puts all of the load on the pins, which are not designed to carry any load other than holding your boot to the binding. stick with the fintecs

    Water heater issues. Part should be here early today. May or may not be related to the cold. Pos rheem water heater, didn’t work when I first put it in 2 months ago, broke again 2 weeks later, and now again 1.5 months later. Don’t buy Home Depot crap, get your home stuff from a real, reputable supplier The good news is we have running water, it's just a tad on the chilly side mario

    8:30 at chets dream. I'm going up Saturday due to familial commitments. There should be a decent amount of the crew out
  12. I love my 8Rw. Took it out on day one and haven't looked back. Only other board I've been on this season is my SF. Hit some wind burnished manmade the other day and it stayed hooked up despite me riding my lazy Colorado hero snow style. Crazy how a board that sounds as loud as a thirst does can hold a edge as well as it does, even with bad technique Mario

    disjointed hi everybody, big a$$ crew out today, Coach ink, Dustin, Kneel, 007, fng justin and lisa, odd job, ice, slopestar, ms. katie , sandy and my sorry a$$. Unfortunately, a bit more carnage than usual today, with 007 getting taken out in the liftline(WTF????!!!!) and coach Ink face splatting, resulting in a nice shiner. I am still operating with a low grade feeling of impending doom, though the additional terrain did take some pressure off. Rhetorical question, what is the point of pointing it? Got strafed on Roulette, as well as home run, I wish more people would embrace the experience and the joy of vestibular motion, it would certainly make the slopes feel a lot safer. I wish for a speedy recovery for Inky and Hillary. We ended up broken up into smaller groups due to all the aforementioned carnage, with the Jersey boys, Kneel and I spending a lot of time together Still riding the bondage pant topsheet 8rw, and loving it. hit some 2x firm on a heallie, and still managed to hold it despite riding mostly colorado hero for the last 25+ years. Thirsts are AMAZING!!! Thanks Mark, you seriously have your $hit together with your builds Mario
  14. it looked like he was going to run out of realestate on one of those 2 turns...
  15. I need a bad dad beat down to get out of my head from my incident on our last run together. $hit is looking pretty Bleak for you goons. Hope you get some snow from the monster heading your way, the luv got whopping 1.5" out of it Say hi to tank for me
  16. I saw the radair/winterstick up close on Sunday, it sure is purdy, but most importantly, it turns!!!!
  17. With jackasses around it doesn't matter. I'm a big guy, dressed in ski patrol colors, and still got tagged from behind a few weeks ago. Dumbasses gunna dumbass Mario

    Impending Doom. Physically,I really did luck out when Zachery from eastern ohio hit me 2 weeks ago. Mentally, not so much. I made some good turns, put together a few, but never got comfortable and confident enough to really open things up. For me, it was kind of a "meh" day. We hit mambo for a few, Roulette, and Richards. Snow was good on all, we avoided spillway, which is still a little narrow and lumpy Those having a much better day than I, in no particular order, were 007, Ice, Odd Job, SVR, Slopestar, and Ms Katie. Impressive riding by all. Hoping that this next storm drops a little further south, and supplements the snowmaking, giving us a few more options. See you Sunday, Mario
  19. Good plan b. AI cannot turn a wrench under a sink. I wish more of our youngsters would consider the trades. I started in construction as a way to finance my education, I found that I was much better suited to building in the real world than in the abstract of civil engineering. I still use all of the trig I learned, and pass it on to anyone who will stay around as I proselytize about the awesomeness of carpentry. I am saddened by the fact that there are very few youth coming in, and that the encyclopedic amount of knowledge I have gleaned from the crusty old timers that both mentored, and tormented me will leave with me when I hang up my occidental tool belt in a few years. Sorry for the partial derailment here, gawdzira touched on something that has been bothering me for the last decade or so Mario

    Yo Lci!!

    It was a good one on Sunday, though i was feeling a bit tentative after my encounter with Zachery from eastern Ohio. I think my neck was more tired from 6 checks than my legs were. Thanks for picking up my slack Lance!
