in this thread you can ask questions you have about skiing that aren't big enough to make a thread about. ill start with: how long does it take for a windells edit to come out once the session ends?

or will next years saga be insulated, or just a shell?

it was just a t shirt from that summer sale thing. I got an email saying it was processed on Thursday (the day after I ordered it) so I figured everything was hunky Dory. I'm probably most curious because I'm used to tracking my stuff

Not really a big deal because I dig how they came out. But I attempted to dye my red tall tees black.

I used the recommended amount of water, two packages of black RIT dye and I let them soak for 5 hours, with consistent stirring. I took them out and hung them dry. I did it twice, following all the same things.

They still came out maroon? Why? I used 2 packages for 2 times for ONLY 2 tees. But y no black ):

whats the difference between a pretzel, switch up, and disaster?

Pretzel: changing direction on the rail (ex: 270 on pretzel 270 off)

Switch up: doing a 180 while on rail/box (ex: left foot forward to right foot forward)


Disaster: example: Gapping the flat part of a flat-down box, and landing on down.

More specifically, changing the direction you are spinning. So if you spin left for your 2 on, a pretzel 2 off would be a blind 2 - you'd spin to you right off the rail.

not necessarily a disaster is more any form of medium-large gap over something to rail or feature (excluding close in rails, thats a close in). its still a disater if there is a lip set back from a rail, a flat piece of ground then a down rail and you gap from the lip to the rail. same with jumping over a rail or medium-large piece of flat ground to a wallride.

Can someone help me find this edit: was a powder edit mostly filmed on GoPro by a liftie. Beginning shows him leaving his lifty shack, clicking in, and dropping the side of the liftie shack. Filmed somewhere in Utah, Alta maybe? +k for help

Anybody have a link to the edit (perhaps a level 1 trailer?) in which Tom Wallisch says something to the effect of, "270's are so 20[year]. I'm gonna bring 20[year+1] in with a bang." and then 450's onto an urban down rail through a small gate in the fence? Field in the background, I think.

I am almost certain he does not carry one.

But he still uses Salomon bindings since he carried that sponsor before he left to build up Armada. Maybe he still uses their boots as well? Check the edit of him in Turkey that was released not too long ago. If he is on their boot then there is your answer!
