certainly sounds like a theme.

i find these skins seriously lacking in glue stickiness right out of the bag. compare a pair of brand new voile skins to these and they are miles apart in stickiness (voile SUPER hard to pull apart and the g3 high traction sparks pull right apart).

i took the g3 spark high tractions out once here in the cascades…[Read more]

hey dan— that was us you ran into your first day at crystal. it was me (fitzie), johnny haze, and z-bone. sorry we didn’t get to connect later on. you guys headed up east pk and we went over to what we call ODB (old dudes bowl). glad you got some of the good stuff too.

baker rocked. wish we would have kicked it at the event more. got too…[Read more]

nice sessions!

were these your lines from one of those days? it looked like a party of three. i wanted to shred this zone on NYE but my partner wasn’t up for it. i’d like to get back conditions permitting– south facing i believe. quality is low as i only had my phone.

extreminator lines for sure. kudos to the climbing shredders. not my cup of tea however.

i’ll take 4000 vf of pow filled steep varied terrain (chutes, cliffs, pillows) over 4000 vf of jump turns every time. my gut check butterflies come a lot easier than being on that kind of exposure. yowzers.

and solo can be mucho fun!

ciao,

so here is what i think a splitboard is. it’s a snowboard that splits down the middle somehow and can become skis. from what you were saying it doesn’t sound like that…

true– however, it is only to ski up the mtn and shred down. it isn’t something that you can choose to ski down the mtn one day and board another…… hope that helps….

nut_case- there was a recent snowmobiler death from an avy. i believe that’s it so far this season in washington.

all of the usual online sites have been quiet w/r/t bc trip reports. that is a good sign that folks are refraining from heeding the powpow call. i’m forcing myself to stick to resorts while it is like that. although that is never…[Read more]

that utah snowpack sounds very similar to what we have in the pnw this year. i’m starting to hope for a pineapple express to come thru and settle some of this. i know i know, bite my tongue for wishing for one of those.

happy new year people of pow!

baker tour might be pretty sweet tomorrow (sunday 11-23)…..anyone going up that way?

nice & kind! i was getting some of the same over on kendall. i needed sleep so couldn’t make it out there for a departure that early. meant leaving the hacienda at 4am. Boohoohoo.

-mc

sup for sunday 3-30?

bumpin this beeotch again now that i’m in CO. Resort riding today but would love to get some of that recent dump in the bc.

i’m here all week so hit me up….

-mc

where is berthoud in relation to Frisco / Copper Mtn area? berthoud seems like a popular spot for touring and i’m flying out from seattle friday the 8th. staying for a week…..

bumpin since i’m a week out from heading to frisco (colorado that is)….

needs some sort of insulation too. my banana froze stiff this past weekend. my wife was stoked though.

nice & kind hooking up with you guys. looking forward to the next outing…

mr boba fett says i got to get me some of those snap / click poles. i’m over the current ones getting stuck extended. arghhh.

broform anyone?

-mc

i’ll drive up to baker tomorrow if you want to meet up…..

frisco colorado. stoke factor is high to be brining my split with me! have the new sparks mounted and ready too!!!

said trip inspired me to pick up some left hand milk stouts when i saw them in a store last night. name says it all. although, i’d heard of left hand cigarettes– but not left hand brews. tasty!!

-mc

guess i should mention that i do have the necessary avy gear and bc savvy. so i won’t be stopping above you on a descent or sniffing your arse while skinning…..
