I have a ROAM and am considering doing this to mine to get that 60fps rate on it.... Will let you know how it goes when I bite the bullet.
As far as I can tell, it's pretty straight forward to revert back to ROAM1 firmware if it doesn't work out....

Hello!
Looking to upgrade my old ContourHD POV camera to a ROAM2 for this coming season, as I'd like to keep filming stuff at 720p 60fps...
While surfing through the interwebs for reviews/info etc. I found some reports that the ROAM1 will install the ROAM2 Firmware (with a a tweek or 2), thus allowing it to record 60fps instead of just 30fps...
Anyone done this? I'd rather buy the ROAM1 as it's way cheaper!

Thing is, are you NAKED skiers/boarders. That's the big thing now.
Only on waist deep pow days! NECK on the other hand is a 'never-nude' like Tobias Funke, so goes full-monty except for his denim cut-offs...

It's always nicer to share the humiliation and stigma of being an avid fun-skier!
Yeah, but the fact that we do it tandem style does decrease the stigma somewhat though I think
I've got a feeling it's gonna be the next big thing!

Snowboarder, but, in the past few seasons I have been out on skis a couple of times...
I'd love to be proficient enough to backcountry ski... just can't pull myself away from the board long enough!
You forget to mention the fun skis you ride every other weekend
Shhhhhhhhhhh! Damnit!

Looks like I will be checking it out with a buddy tomorrow.
Well, that buddy is me and it was truly wild seeing that place again after having ridden there back in 2004/2005...
In fact, I didn't even remember the whole Plaza part! -How I could've forgotten that epic complex I have no idea...
The resort was pretty decent to ride back in the day. The terrain was varied, quite open, it all funneled down into one valley like Cortina so you couldn't get lost, and they had a backcountry gate that they would open if conditions allowed. The backcountry gate gave you access to a 15~20min ridge-line hike up to the peak above the resort, which in turn gave you 5~6 nice turns in a completely open bowl.
The crazy thing is that the last time I rode there, I spoke to the manager as I was unhappy that I'd paid full whack for lift tickets, and yet most of the big/longest pistes were closed; un-groomed and roped off. This was mid-season!? Conditions were good and the snow stable. I told him that it was bad business not having a huge ski-resort up and running 100%, as that's what us customers were paying for/expecting. I said that people will not bother to come all the way out here to ski if you don't make the effort. You'll go out of business! Anyway, he apologised, understood where we were coming from, but if we didn't like how the resort was run, we shouldn't return....
Next year they were closed!
