  1. Really sucks to have SES over. Just super to have the chance to meet and ride with everyone!

    During the 18 hr drive back to the flatlands I found my feet and legs doing tiny little heelside and toeside moves as I guided the car from lane to lane with the cruise control on. At one point I wondered why I wasn't changing lanes, pushed my toes harder and leaned a bit.... oh, right... steering wheel! :eek:

    Endless thanks to ALL the organizers and supporters.

  2. I think they should be banned from beaches. Obviously you can't be in control with your feet on separate boards. They'll be injuring surfers, and causing general mayhem. Not to mention, do we want skier types on our waves? :eplus2:

    Also, if your skis are too short they will bump up the waves and leave moguls. :freak3:

  3. Just demo'ed a FC 171 and 175 at SES. Liked the 175 better, but I think the 171 might be better suited to my home hill. Is your FCII metal or glass only?

    edit: in serious email exchanges with NickG regarding the Donek FC II

  4. I see sammy made a contact about the Donek FC three weeks ago and that Nick's last edit to his opening post was made 2 weeks ago. Donek was still showing available then.

    Is the Donek FCII still available? Interested. email sent.

  5. Yes, the north was not as heavily vested in slave ownership as the south... but the north was very instrumental in maintaining the institution of slavery. Many very large fortunes were made by 'respectable' northern businessmen owning and operating the ships which brought slaves over to the states. As the winds of change started to blow these businesses found ways to whitewash their fortunes and downplay their roles.

  6. Any ballroom dancing around Aspen during SES?

    My wife and I enjoy dancing and would like to know if there are any places in the area we might go while at SES. It would be great to have others join us as well! We are not 'Dancing with the Stars' types, but do enjoy Waltz, Foxtrot, Tango, Samba, Chacha, etc.

  7. After reading thru the SkES 11 thread I have come to realize I probably should change my handle here at BOL. Several discussed on SkES jump to mind right off the bat.

    MFG....mud flap guy

    TOP....turkey on plates

    PAC....personality as contraceptive

    Should this be a poll? I had always thought of myself as more of a JAKE, the 'life is good' guy... but I think it's time to take off the rose tinted glasses.

  8. For cryin' out loud, people! I just want to do something fun and you drag all this negativity into it. What's wrong? Not getting any? Get with Jake's program or go home! Jake doesn't want to be around you.

    Nice sidecut and no toe overhang. Today he's carving!
