soubriquet 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Fair enough. Stable, fun and easy skiing. Yes. However, it's not the stoke I'm looking for. Just my personal opinion. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 cheers beanie! Haven't seen you on here in a while. How's the study going? Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Soub skiing isnt about just skiing perfect snow. Skiing is about way more than that. I dont quit once the powder is gone. Sking corn trees is surreal. They arent always good and the days they are you are lucky to get them. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 huh that really makes me want to post some summer stoke But for those of you that enjoy it Here is a bit of what I did ski Started in the upper right I've been up to lots. Been busy so have not been on the net so much other than email and keeping my blog up to date. I've graduated and am moving up to the northwest corner of BC for a teaching gig in a tiny little 500 person village. I'm super stoked to experience the north Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I'm not trying to rain on your parade toque. Don't get pissed with me. 20 metres vert of dirty corn doesn't float my boat. Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Sorry about that. Not trying to be offensive at all. Sincerely. Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Here's my latest stoke. The entry. Here's the line. Impressive eh? Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 No worries Soub. Nice skis and line. Ride it switch into the living room The general lack of excitment and imagination for the pursuit of the endless season has kept me away over the past year. And I guess the fact that I don't live there anymore... Just a local peak in my hometown FT When are you back in Canada? Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 well, skiing late spring and summer snow ain't my bag, but i'm glad to see that people are still enjoying it. as long as you are having fun, that's all that matters in my books it's easy to start a pissing contest about how good the snow is and how epic the terrain was (i do it all the time). at the risk of sounding incredibly naff, the best skier is the one having the most fun. it's cool being out in marginal conditions and seeing someone whizz past with a massive grin on their face Link to post Share on other sites

miller 1 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Anyone use the dipotres (or whatever they are called - magnifying filters?!) on a lens? I heard it is a cheap way to "get macro", though obviously not as good as a lens and light issues come into play. Link to post Share on other sites
i9i 0 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I have a Nikon D40x and use one of those 'filters' to get some closeups. It works well when there is lots of light, though I would imagine a proper macro lens would be fun to have. My budget doesn't stretch that far though unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites
