Eboot Posted February 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 In the lift line at MCC a carver points at a skier in front of them and says to his carve buddy: “what are those?” 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st_lupo Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 We had a regional slalom (ski) race at the local hill today and I wound up talking with a couple of the racers. Got the comment that they were shocked that a snowboard could carve turns as cleanly as I was doing today. I also heard from my wife (who was catching up with a bunch of the coaches) that one of the out of towners was asking about the snowboarder that was carving up a storm on the mountain today. A local coach replied, "Oh yeah, him. He's one of the only snowboarders here that can ski" (said with a fair amount of irony, I'm certain since I haven't been on skis in over 30 years). K162 FTW!!! 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be too young to know (or has selective memory) that the first "shaped" skis were inspired by carving snowboards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
