With permission, I have taken this idea from another cult. I think it would be great here.

This is a thread to post what you are totally stoked on. Share with us your happiness.  :)

The Quiver pic is incomplete. Missing are ARGs w/916s, Pistols w/912tis and Atuas w/x17s (my bros, as are the Legend Pros and Viciouses). The Thugs will be gone before the beginning of the season and the ARGs might be gone soon after that too (depending on how sweet the Great Scotts turn out to be)

The only graphical issue there is that once it's laid onto the ski the on3p speech bubble gets cut off a bit. Don't know if that can be remedied for the next batch... either way, the graphics all came out really really well (mine look amazing), and the skis feel pretty solid. I'm going to ride the fuck out of mine and see how they hold up.They are testers, after all.

Adjusted the head angle on my Jekyll (adjustable fram geometry between 72 and 69 degrees).

Backed that fucker all the way out to the 69, and she rips up the descents with so much more confidence. Downside is it seems the pedals bottom out on all the rocks here a lot more often during the climbs, but I think my shock is low on pressure, and I cannot find my shock pump. Oh noes.

Meatheads > Level 1

The Meatheads get me way more stoked to ski. I used to love Level 1, but I think I'm starting to get burnt out on them.

Slackening your head angle probably dropped the BB.  Personally, I love having lower bikes because they corner way better and are a lot more fun to ride (for me).  You just gotta be a little more concious of where your pedals are or you'll get rocked.  Oh yeah, slack HA's are where it's at--my bikes are sitting at ~67.5 and 64.

Yeah, the BB is lower, but the shock is definitely sagging down around the 50% mark. I'm going to need to get down to the LBS and buy a pump.

(Unless anyone here has a spare they'll sell for way cheap)

Bike kills it much better though now. Rips through rough stuff way better and is a shit ton more stable at speed. It was nearly twitchy before and got sketched out through some tricky terrain too.

we always get in trouble for that during patrol requal training with the AEDs. Theres also the razor (for the patient, not the back of the person being tested) and the wipes (again for the patient, not the brow of the person being tested) to play with

There's a small river by my house that I've been fishing quite a bit since I was ten or so, the fishing there is usually pretty good for 10-14" rainbows and browns.  But last night I pulled out the biggest rainbow I have ever seen in there;  19" of sexy, wriggling fish!  It was awesome, and felt even better knowing I got it with a fly I had tied (quite skillfully!)

I migggght might might have a day or two where I drive up to White River Junction, in which case I'll let you know cause it's not far away at all from you.

I'm kinda not sure if I'm actually going to get the break in my schedule I'm expecting though so I really don't know though.

Man, I wish this serving position had come earlier. But it's good its here now. I made $170 tonight. It's Thursday. I made $120 on Monday night. I have yet to do a full weekend. But jeez, they're busy 5 days a week now. This is so good. I've never felt so comfortable money wise, even with snowboarding. I am a happy duck.
