no sour grapes here, just trying to wind up BP as he and Roosta are looking at a big storm coming into Tahoe tomorrow, to freshen up a great snow pack, and we are here surfin 1.5ft waves. Actually I really enjoyed being out in the water today despite the lack of waves

Because I don't have enough ski gear already (cough) I decided I needed a new jacket/pants/softshell (at 40% off! yeah!).

I don't recommend trying on all your new purchases at once in the middle of summer Also it's a bit depressing. All mothballed for winter now.

Been some talk on surfco about snowboarding looking 'unco' compared to skiing. I have to admit being a bit disappointed with the boardercross as a spectacle and actually thought the ski-cross looked better. And then after watching the downhill last night those skiers are unbelieveable ... so fast and on edge. Maybe after another couple of season boarding I could be tempted to give the twin planks a go

Yep my favourite too, I heart Mueller & Trice. "It's always snowing somewhere" was pretty cool too.

Can't wait for Jeremy Jones' "Deeper" out next season. Looks epic.

http://fresh.snowboardermag.com/videos/jeremy-jones-deeper-trailer/ [fresh.snowboardermag.com]

"I wanted to get back to solitude, adventure, and new descents,” Jeremy Jones said. “By hiking past boundaries set in place by helis and snowmobiles we were able to get into bigger mountains, away from people and back to first descents."

Skis are safer than a board in my opinion at high speed and on ice. You are perhaps safer at high speed on actual racing skis and racing boots due to the firm fit and edge grip/vibration damping of the skis. It only takes me 30-40 km cycling a week to have enough strength to handle race skis although I have never tried the down hill version.

So how many times do you tumble in a day then? Whats wrong with sideslipping as boarders do that too when they are on runs too tight and steep? I do not understand however why wedge turns are used so much when learning. The wedge turn gave me sore thighs on my second day so I applied the idea of skiing slightly uphill to let the mountain slow me down at the end of a turn.

the sideslipping i reffered to was from snowboarders cass
i have no problems with any skiers and was sticking up for you guys
How many times do i fall in a day? how longs a piece of string? park,pow or cruising? ive busted a collarbone,fractured the other,headbutted a tree and busted my back on a 3m cliff so id say not often but when i do its worthwhile.
now stop trying to read stuff into my posts that isnt there, i know plenty of skiers who rip it up and love ridng with them
