yeh i'm not going to ski a big shute (next year though baby) - but wanna hike with everyone and do whatever everyone else is doing. will have a beacon by the end of today anyway, thanks. got the other stuff. waiting for next years skis, to put skins and touring bindings on. so just going to snowshoe with the public enemys this spring. i don't think i'm any more of a liability in the backcountry than anyone else who is planning to go out into the bc this weekend... i do however, get treated differently all the time, cause i'm a chick... which is boring me... and you know i can do it, and w

let's play baby!!!!

ok boys count me in, i'll just snowshoe it - if i cant borrow any touring gear from anyone.

yo boys, i'm up for it!!!!!!!!! emm anyone got any gear i can borrow... dont have trekkers or skins... don't think i can snowshoe it at the pace you are talking about. if it the weather is sweet, seriously i wanna go.

haha semi theft, good one... actually i didn't really steal it... emmm miles did, and i just accidently took it home with me.

you checked out will's hair yet??

haha right... i stole ONE glass... and i'm bringing it back. anyway, you have a LOT of wine glasses

FT - i stole a wine glass from your house last night how was your evening out?? i didnt go didnt go to the big nag with the crew last night, went to the onsen instead... after stealing a wine glass from your house

04/05 season i skied on the streetracer 8's (infact i'm selling them if anyone wants to make me an offer, they are in perfect condition) - had a great season on them, if high speed on-piste carving is what you are into. i would agree with FT, that they don't like straight lines at speed and are definitely too narrow underfoot to ski the pow - but if you wanna practise on-piste technique and various turns - they would be perfect, go for it! if you think you want to hit more terrain that just on-piste, go for an all mountain ski. good luck! PM me if you want some more info.

Slow - bring your skis girl!!!! See ya there!

thanks that's kind of what i was wondering, cheers captain stag

FT - "i guess im going to rappies tonite then. cause i can walk there in 10 minutes from school" sure you are not going to rapie??

i know i know - matsumoto san even said he got a call from australia about those skis. next time, please drag me to the shop ok.

mmmmm sounds good! ehh what night are you bbq-ing? saturday?

i will - just wondered if anyone on here had been to cardrona though. you going to rappies tonight??

hahahahaha

Anyone been riding at Cardrona in New Zealand??

toque - i'll be out in the spring - you said every weekend into june, right? you know i'm game... just need to sort out my gear. should have bagged the pocket rocket set up that you and FT kept talking about what are you doing on the hill this weekend?? or undecided as yet??

hey boyz, see you there! FT - are you making the roasted veggies again?? mmmmmmmmmmm!

looks awesome boys!

http://www.haglofs.jp/shopping/index.html ohhh yehh so they are!

Helli II retails at about 56,000 yen i think, Fusion is about 40,000 yen. Not the cheapest stuff, but totally amazing stuff. There are haglofs branches in Setagaya and Harajuku in Tokyo, and probably other places, and also H + Hakuba in Hakuba sells Haglofs. I dont know if the Japanese website has prices? Maybe not, but if you can get your hands on a catalogue, it has a pricelist.

Yehhh agreed, HAGLOFS stuff is the shit. The jacked FT is talking about (Fusion jacket) is totally waterproof, gore-tex, really really light shell, looks really really sweet too. I use the HAGLOFS Helli II jacket, slightly more expensive than the Fusion shell, has inner mesh lining, but still extremely light. Check out the website - www.haglofs.se - it's Swedish stuff... the Scandies know what they are doing too, i think it's gets quite cold there sometimes?

hey dudes, so nurses aside - where's the party at this weekend?? anyone partying?? c'mon FT, you know you wanna.....

yo dudes.... cool pics (FT - you look well rough, too much wine and fine dining while skiing i think???) i dumped tanner hall and went for the eskimo avatar.... ohhh my god, i hope it actaully works this time??
