Nice. I ended up picking up that splitboard that you commented on in the self xmas gift thread. I've only got 1 day on it so far but it's alot of fun and sure beats the hell out of snow shoes.

Not a Prior, although that would be my choice if money was no issue. I got a barely used Voile off of a guy on ebay, and he lived down on the south shore of tahoe so I was able to just drive down and pick it up.

I was going to cut one myself but I didn't have a board that was big enough so by the time I bought a board, the split kit and skins it would've been as much or more than what I paid for the voile board that came with everything.

It's tough, but that seems to me like a really ideal place to live. Great mtb'ing, not to far from the lake, don't have to deal with shoveling in the winter but it's a short drive to get to the snow.

well thats good to hear ya say that dfinn, since neither the wife, nor i have ever been out that way... she ll be working at beale AFB and i ll hook into something bike / snowboard related... much the same as i do here...

i get a fairly decent rental allowance for truckee - around 1500 p/month... but my plan is something cheapish and pocket the remainder... thats the plan anyway :)
