I have arms like an orangutan and they don't like to bend much. I am a windmill mounted on skis. Force my arms to bend and keep hands at waist height, or just keep on wilding out?

try and keep ur arms at least below shoulder height and let the arms kinda do their thing but don’t exaggerate it. that’s at least what i feel like i do

my arms naturally don't move very much. I thank the pretzel man every day for my gift
The course in Italy is unlikely to be refurbished/finished in time for Luge/Bobsled etc. There were talks a couple years ago of St Moritz and a couple others hosting these but they decided to stick with Italy. If it falls through and isn't ready these are going down in Lake Placid.
Went out twice this week, at 25 I’m starting to get older and the knees have started to stiffen up from all the abuse , that being said, I view it that I have a few more years that I can ski park. I had a fun day and really got my feet back under me. Felt good to do some tricks again
Goretex_VidalKnowing my nieces and nephews will never experience skating a puck miles around our town’s lake with all your cousins and friends is a huge bummer.
I'm treally hoping that this week the lakes will freeze. Isn't supposed to get over 32 degrees in CT and in the teens at night. Might have some solid pond hockey next saturday.
Flipping through the Freeskiers Mag Buyers guide and it's literally just "The coolest gear for Tech Bros from Boulder/The Bay area to make you look like you're a good skier"
You’ve got plenty of years, maybe decades left of skiing park. Take care of your body.

Same exactly heel as the sth2 on the strive 16. Click is sound is identical. Absolutely nothing different in that sense between my sth2’s and strives. Can argue about the toes.
So you’re telling me the place I go to skate after work, snobahn centennial, has an indoor jump to a bag? Not just those lame carpet fake snow treadmills on an angle?? 👀

If you see a large ginger man with a lush beard and a crazy receding hairline just know he’s the goat
hi_vis360Salomon loves to make something good and then once it catches on take it away
I have a theory. I have both STH 16 WTRs and STH2 16s. My older pair of STHs are pushing 8 years old. I think Salomon made such a reliable binding in terms of durability and performance that they probably weren't selling as many as they though because it's just so damn good and wasn't breaking plus also having to go up against pivots which are now the "Cool Skier" binding so they scrapped it in order to sell more stuff. Me and a coworker were talking about this yesterday.

It’s the same thing with the new pivots, planned obsolescence

Place looks cool, the Thornton location is also nuts, and they allow bikes.
I am a closish to the centennial spot, definitely gonna try to hit that ramp now.
What some good ski press designs/ models? Trying to come up with an idea for my capstone machining project. Something with moving parts and high precision. So far thinking a 2 stroke model plane engine or a mini ski press could be fun. Leaning more towards the press cuz I honestly don't really give a shit about engines and stuff, like it would be cool but not something I'm dying to make. If anyone have any ski/ mtb related ideas or projects they have done hmu. Thx fools.
Yeah the Thornton one is cool. I’ve been once but it’s way further from me. I go to snobahn centennial after work because it’s close to my work, has an indoor skate ramp, and is like $3.50 for an hour to skate. I think I am going to hit the bag jump today too when I skate.
