Impulse bought a pair of powder skis from a company a friend is starting up. He's worked out manufacturing to do some re-issues of classic, timeless, and revolutionary skis. Pretty stoked. Hey @SkaredShtles or @Nick did you catch wind of that at all?
Flock of robins in the back yard...
I did, and I was tempted to get a pair of groomer zoomers.
FWIW, this is @marshalolson venture, for which we all wish him much much success
I had not...
But:
- 48m radius @ 190cm
Oh yeah derp, forgot he posts here as well.I did, and I was tempted to get a pair of groomer zoomers.

I got the 190s, but with a text in to @marshalolson for his recommendation. Could might go for the doscientos but maybe overkill for my intended use. Who even knows.I had not...
But:
ETA: 190 is the *shortest* ski they offer? Well done, lads... well done, indeed!

I mean... with the profile of some of those models, the 202 would probably feel short.
I like the knife form factor a lot. The execution oozes quality. The only thing that bothers me is how stiff the blade is. Can't flip it open with one hand. I took it apart and relubed without much effect so i hope it needs breaking in and will get smoother with some use.
holy smokes I just saw this now on the news. NC monkeys, are you guys in a safe zone or what?
Developed a nasty migraine last night that lasted into the morning. Called into work and slept in. Felt good enough after lunch to service the rear diff on the car. Actual drain and fill holes. ThEy DoN't mAkE CaRs sO YoU cAn WoRk oN ThEm AnYmOre.
My studio is 3.8 miles from the fire. So I should be able to feel it if it goes boom. It was reported that they have 10 times the amount of ammonium nitrate as the Texas blast a few years ago. Probably not going to try to get any close up views though.
i saw a video of a lady fostering a beaver....cleaning out the tub because it clogged the drain....the noise they make is comical...

I've heard that from several sources. The break in takes a little bit, but once it's broken in they are smooth as glass. Looking forward to getting my hands on mine.
++vibes, man... get some ice on it.
also aloe and arnica

notice that it's missing a nut down by CoSprings, too
Well that didn't go well.
Grid start. 3rd beat her to the corner. On lap 2, she tried to take the inside on turn 1, got the door shut, hit from behind, spun #2, and in the melee, #4/5 pushed her into the wall. They normally correct placements, but I guess they didn't realize that she was beached, and the group had taken off before she got free. From last, she managed to claw back to 6th. She's super upset about it.
I've tried to wind her down. Explain that this is her first grid race, first really competitive position race, etc. She just can't get past 2nd > 6th.

At this point just cook the rest of the hand in the grease and eat the tasty results to dampen your tears.
Also ouch, don't do that.
With more pushups she wouldn't have been pushed out the way.Builds character.
It’s actually fine, just a bit of a shock to the system. No hot tub tonight, though!
Short skis suck. Long skis truck.I had not...

I still occasionally ride 185 and 195 cm snowboards in armpit deep pow, the feeling is not something I personally could convey with words.
more gooder
