If the bitch says Santa Cruz it must be the shit! Being from La Selva Beach, Santa Cruz was a big ass city! It was us rural folks that knew what good shit was and supplied.
I still just use my hands! Yes, for that too when needed!
Not this specific one, but I just got an airbrush and all the accessories, along with a vinyl plotter. Gonna go ham and start taking painting gear more seriously.

I'm stoked to see what you can do to helmets! A wizard van for your head would be sweet

X100 V. Never had a nice digital camera before and I'm kinda over film. And after reviewing a lot of my photos it's clear I can deal with a lack of zooming. All the ones I like are at a really similar focal length, and almost always between 24-35mm equivalent.

That's a beautiful camera. You'll have fun with that
DeebieSkeebiestecnicas fully dialed. these things are perfect now and feel so much more responsive and alive. and ya they look cool as shit mounted on mach1s .
ok I know I sound like a total noob but what exactly do booster straps do? I know they wrap around the cuff of the boot liner and somehow make it more comfortable??

They link your calf to your boot even tighter. Since it’s elastic, you can get a super snug fit that works with your leg muscles, as opposed to the static strap or most boots. All this leads to way better power transfer into your skis and way more control.
From my understanding, the elastic band patent is expiring soon and most boot manufacturers will be incorporating first-party “booster straps” into all performance OEM boots launching in the next couple years. If the boot mfrs are going to this tech, you know it’s legit

The argyle strap attracts potential mates. It is extremely important that you make sure it dangles outside the bottom of your pants.
...oh yeah and it is a drastic upgrade over the stock strap of most boots.
anders_athanks! I have a pair of unmounted 112 and 122 here :o
but kinda holding on mounting as Im considering putting either grifons, jester, or duke PT pro.. or pivot + cast or just pivots...
duke PT toe is kingpin(/alpinist toe, soo yeah and the skis are fairly light
Sooooo the 102’s are lightttt. But the jester pros being full metal are heavy... so overall the skis themselves are kinda heavy. With that being said, the mount at team is pretty far forward. I can easily butter the noses, but I’m having trouble getting on the tails.
I want to get the 112’s and throw some pt12’s on them and use those as a touring/deeper days ski.

Ha ha. Do you know what a heavy ski is like? I mean, you gotta' have a chair lift with extra power!

Oh absolutely! I have some 2015 Bent Chetlers in a 185 with Atomic STH2 WTR 16’s (I believe they’re metal) and those babies weigh at least 8lbs a ski. But they cruise through crud and variable terrain like nobody’s business.

Yea, I think the few pairs of Atomics I have with plates and race binders are at least 10 lbs per ski!
Puts some lead in my light ass!
No.Quarter
Never been mounted, in great condition other than some UV discoloration. Hopefully gonna find some cheap bindings to put on em and rip some bumps
Oh shit! You are going to ski those and not want to ride anything else!ahahaha I had a very similar pair back in the late 80’s early 90’s then bought some K2 Extremes in 93.
anders_a4ks are more ks! will it still have your voice on slowmo tripp out feature?
I hope so! Ha ha! It's going to be a learning curve. New menu to negotiate.
Should be a great video cam.
In the crash, the lens of my HF G-30 was broken from the camera, and now it's just barely hanging on. For sure moisture going to get in there. I will try to use it though until I get the G60.
Bought this same one! Stoked to take it to Idaho/Wyoming this upcoming weekend. I have been really impressed so far with how easy it has made snapping quick, quality shots.

Yeah I've had all sorts of cameras but never a modern digital camera, especially off this sort. I'm excited for it.
