Who did I see at Gebhardt?

[Bishop]

Sniagrab, christy sports, boulder ski deals. Kinda all over. I should have my stuff tuned up I think, some of the bolts in my bindings are getting loose :-/ but since the board is newish, it only needs to be waxed. I haven't looked at the edges too close yet

Ben where'd you get your equipment? I work at a shop in Glendale if you guys need ski/board tunes or whatever.

Wow damn..... BUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTTTTT Steamboat is like 3 hours away.... Copper and WP and MJ are much closer

very very true. I'm about to get the student price pass...hopefully I can go enough to make it worth it.

I don't know if it's too late, but Steamboat does wiiiiicked student deals. For the last two years at least, just by showing proof of being a full time student got you six full days for $100.

I'm not sure if that was a CU-only deal, but I made great use of that.

Awesome... My cousin's living up there atm too so maybe I can hit him up for a place to crash while I board.

there are some real cool galde runs in steamboat and hardly anyone is up there

[Bishop]

I'm not partial to powder, but i'll ride it.... I'm a big fan of fast groomers and just riding a long time without having to slow down or stop or worry about other people, and I love riding glades, like in the trees as long as they're room.

[325ix]

Yeah it gets expensive after a while though. O need to try heated socks. Definitely try Steamboat if you liek powder and wide open tress

[Bishop]

I'm not big on parks, but a few friends are. Never been to Steamboat, but I should go sometime this year. I have the rocky mountain super pass, so unlimited copper, mary jane, winter park, and i think 6 days at steamboat. I did that last year, just put a foot warmer in each boot in the morning and it helped immensely.

I figured if there really is a difference over time it would save money over buying four foot heater pads a day! I dont spend a ton of time in the park though, more in the powder. Esspecially in Steamboat. You ever been there? It's the best powder i've been on in Colorado.

I have the same issue. It's one of the reasons I bought new boots and had them properly fitted this time (sucks I wasted money on having a lazy employee just put me in some boots a few years ago) and he said it should help / fix it. The Deltas also have kinda a pressure point on the top strap but the most recent model supposedly has a different strap and alleviates the stress. I might be looking into buying just the strap if I see the same issues this season. As for flow, I rode for 2 years in high school with a guy who LOVED em, I've never tried em though. I'd read a lot about em, I've heard good and bad. I'd imagine they're only really worth buying if you live in the park, and you need to take the board on and off a lot to hike.

I love my gloves! I wanna look at getting a burton ( I hate the brand but there boards are good, a little overplayed imo) blunt or clash or maybe a ride board of some sort and another bigger set of ride bindings. Have you tried any of the flow bindings. I have a problem with cutting off circulation to my feet and these supposedly help aleviate that.

lol those things are pretty sweet.... I haven't ridden Lib Tech before.... I've been riding a Morrow Radium for a few years, and when I was buying new boots, I asked the boot fitter if he suggested any boards, etc... Normal conversation... Ended with me buying a 1 or 2 year old Lib Tech demo board. Bottom is mint, and the top has a little wear, but the price was right ;)
