Slow Eddie Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Turned 33 in June. Physical Therapist / Bicycle Mechanic. I can think of three others (one of whom is a member, two others who may lurk) who are within either side of me be 1 year and are variously sales reps (pharmaceuticals and outdoor hardgoods/softgoods) and a luthier/furniture craftsman. You have to be a little bit of a geek to love hardbooting, and it doesn't hurt to have enough income to afford the hardgoods. Like others have mentioned, most of the equipment available (and desired by the majority of the participants) is at the high end of the quality scale compared to other sporting endeavors.

ncermak Posted October 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 34...construction safety officer as for the geek factor. I also think that it is a lot easier for us cube farmers to be online more frequently... any of you guys "Prarie dog" or "Crop dust?"

Tommy D Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 any of you guys "Prarie dog" or "Crop dust?" Ha! "Prarie dog!" My cube has both a ceiling, and a door. No windows, except for my OS. No prarie dogging for me in my 2nd floor cave; I come out of hibernation @4 every day I spend in the office. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tahoetrencher Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I'm 43. Highest Achievement: Living next to a resort for 22 yrs. Biggest Smile: Delivering life-time ego shots on a dedicated race-stik in the bottomless POW-trees to jibbin' 18 yr olds. First carving plank: Gnu RaceRoom "aerospace composite slope tool" ca. 1988? Anybody else still have their Carribous with ski bladder and duct tape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slow Eddie Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 First carving plank: Gnu RaceRoom "aerospace composite slope tool" ca. 1988? Anybody else still have their Carribous with ski bladder and duct tape? Oh, those Gnu bindings with the pre-"Kelly Tongue" tongues. Mmm. And don't forget the Hypercarve, epitome of all things Gnu. When I got my first pair of hard boots, I bought replacement (i.e. non-ski-boot) liners for my Sorels, and I still use them for shoveling snow and driving to the hill. Those things just won't die.

Jon Dahl Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Your as likely to find my legs sticking out of the hood of a car as from under one. At 48 I'm a grey on tray and proud of it, too. And the quiver pales in comparison to the big red shiny box. I could invest 16 times as much in the quiver as I have now in boards/bindings etc. and still be behind the curve! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
