Re: Sbounds...leathers

Pathetic! Me! Had a few brews up on Little Mountain, boys were out ripping up the 5-7 inches of snow that kept skis on top but could be turned on easily. Teleking Telekid and Telewoods were destroying alll the snow as I had another brew. When I pulled out, I was baaad. I mean like a beginner. Poor t...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Good base yesterday with a wet surface. Skied over Dead Moose Pond and the skis didn't surface well on the water over the base. About two miles in camp was waterlogged with the tarp leaking and snow melting. We drifted down and some decent turns were had on a slow surface. Good workout and the Hardw...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Two days ago just before the rain hit Teleknob. 4-6 inches of pow on breakable crushable base. Bout 20-24 inches of base. and it was good. Easy rounded arcs and nothing but powder on the afore said slope. Felt great and hope Telekid gets out there after work. Think Teleking was up there today with a...

Re: I killed my Fischer Rebound Crown skis. What to replace them with?

Most of us have broken our Rebounds. Still have a set but they are beat. Use 109's wax with decent camber. They are 78-60-70 and the newer 82-60-70. They are fast, turn well and slice powder beautifully. Like the older model but both are decent. Rebounds are a good ski in most conditions. Bit slower...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Yesterday was an early ski in the AM. Just a workout and breaking branches off whips making for easier in and out. Bout a mile out I guess, and it was cool. First below zero ski of the year and it was good. Sun is getting stronger, and its power was evident when hitting my face. Telekid was heading ...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

Headed out to Dead Moose Pond, cruising. Broke here and there up to a gap with ledges and small cliffs on the North side. On the other side was a semi steep ridge with many openings between trees. 4-5 inches of powder on a crust that at times makes you aware that it could come apart. The e99s were e...

Re: Changes in Fischer lineup?

Been using Fischer's for a long time and will keep on doing so. But with throwaways, meaning nothing made in China. Bummer! TM

Re: Sbounds...leathers

1o in the Village and 20o up in the Hills. When in the Sun and out of the winds a pleasure. When not, not! In the forest all was quiet with a dull roar where the winds were hitting but not where I was. Cruised some hardwood zones and each had its own magic. Felt so good just cruising with a soft tur...

Re: Sbounds...leathers

3-4 inches of powder on hardpack with a crushable crust that we did NOT hit. Powder was really soft and floaty, on 4 inches. cruised into the Highlands early and it was cold. 12o and windy. Sun though and where the wind wasn't pleasant is the word. Headed out and got to Boots place and had some brew...
