monodude Posted November 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Total blizzard today. Wind, snow in copious amounts. Life is good. The runs that are open are well covered. Off trail...Be carefull. Stumps, branches, rocks, you know the drill. Didn't keep me out of the trees totally though.

monodude Posted November 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Yes the Mono is my weapon of choice. My favorite is a Rossignal Throttle mounted Mono with Salomon bindings. It's approx. 1" wider then carving mono's in a 170-180 range. I made 5/8" risers for more boot clearance. It is also a little stiffer than most mono's. I weigh around 215#. Anyway the snow on main runs has been carve fantastic. The only issue is the crowds. The first 4 or 5 runs are great using the whole run for full on carves then the people make it a little less carve friendly. By 11:00 am it's too crowded for big carves. Don Feed the addiction...
