Best booty score... Wendy Spurlin. August 1997, she told me to meet her at her house at midnight. Sometimes bartending is a really good job.

Hey Chad nice pic! Send me an email and let me know what you've been up to.

Last week I scored a 22cm BD turbo express screw that some one bailed on. I did have to leave a nut at a rap station though.
I also got a cold. The screw is better.

WTF are you spraying for? Check the Silverton thread... even that is so two fronts ago.

not exactly something to brag about. -
I have to enter my name and password every time I logon even if I select the 'remember password' box. Also it keeps forgetting which threads I have viewed. Is anyone else having these problems or is my account j@cked?

I don't shit where I sleep
If you are using that cliche as an analogy for dating at work then you equate dating with shit and work with sleep...
My advice, seek help.
I'm joking. I wouldn't date anyone that you work directly with on a day to day basis. You open yourself up to a whole host of legal actions in addition to the emotional stress.

I don't think you'll find an exact answer to when you should replace your cramPONs. I would say if you notice a degredation in performance then get some new ones. It's totally up to you to make the call. IMO.

In another thread, Lummox said
there is ice in the 'etc' state of coloradoAnd he's right. You just have to look hard for stuff that isn't beat up already. You could possibly even find 800+feet of climbing.

Hey TLG, do you really think chris is gonna let me use his skis?!?
Any way, I've never had a problem with my dynas but I've never ridden naxos or fitschis, so I can't really compare them. I spent 12 years on a snowboard with snow shoes in my pack for cryin out loud so all of this stuff seems complicated to my simple mind.
I'm definitly keeping my old set up (except the boots). It works great for spring conditions and I can actually get crampons for the skis. The new fat boyz are for hitting Red Mountain #1 powder (ASAP, oh yeah!!!), a few hut trips this winter and most likely less than 10 days on piste.
I'm still leaning towards dynas, but I really appriciate everyones' comments. They are giving me a lot to think about before dropping the $$$.

I've never seen any hordes in AT stuff on-piste. I have seen hordes of gapers standing-around under big risers and in the middle of steep groomers though.
I any event, good point about the dynafits. I just expected the freerides to have more of a contact area to hold the binding down since they weigh so much more.

The boots are sold!

The ODB is dead.

You can get a flight from London to Zurich for about $100 and then climb in the Alps. I heard that there is good climbing there.
-
So I was all set thinking that I would go for a set of freerides on my new boards because they are 'beefy-er' than my trusty dynafits. I was checking out a pair on a friend of mine's skis and now I don't think so at all.
First off, I'm not sure that the locking mechanism that keeps the binding in alpine mode is all that sturdy. there are only two little tabs (I think they're even plastic)that keep it locked down.
Secondly, there seemed to be a milimeter or more of side-to-side play in the same part of the binding when it was locked down. That's not good.
I was hesitating on puting dynafits on my new boards because they are pretty fat and I thought that a sturdier binding would be appropriate, but I think overall the dynafits are just as sturdy as the freerides and are almost 3.5 lbs. lighter
Has anyone had similar problems with their freerides and managed to fix them?
Any problems with dynafits?

The horror... THE HORROR!!!

Sorry, these shells fit mondo size 27 - 28.5 thats 9 to 10.5 US sizes with different liners. The liner that is in them now is for 28.5(10.5). I wear a US size 11 shoe normally and these boots were a pretty good fit if a little snug.

These boots have one season on them. They are great for ski mountaineering. Super light for ski boots. I got a deal on some new Garmonts so I am selling these.
New ones sell for over $425. I ask $200 OBO. If I don't get any takers in a week I will probably list them on elame.
They have Thermofit liners and they've only been baked once. They should be good for two more fits.
