Haha love the zoom in zoom out doppler effect, what's the song name.

And iMovie is plenty for any edit.

Heading up to Cypress tomorrow with some buddies. Anyone down???

Was at Seymour today from 9am until 2pm. Left at 2 because A) it started to fog up, and B) couldn't stand up any more.

All I can say is.. WOW! Definitely more snow there now than any time last season. Chucks is not quite all open, but the section that's still roped off is small and honestly I think they're just being cautious because there's a big creek under there. It looked good enough to ride on.

It also snowed for most of the day, so the stuff is getting replaced as fast as it's getting tracked. And it either wasn't very busy or the new chair relieves the congestion to the point where it just doesn't feel crowded.

Great day. I could def stand more of that.

Was @ Cypress last couple days, both days left my house & could see the mtn's gleaming in the sunlight. By the time I got up there, fuckin' blizzard with no visibility.
Oh well, as long as it keeps dumpin', I'm cool with that

Since I snapped my Slackcountry & my Banana now has a broken edge on each side @ either end.
I've been forced to use the Palmer 164, this thing just isn't made for deep heavy chopped up snow

For 1 it only has a set of 3 inserts @ either end, so you get 2 options where you can put your bindings. Even all the way back kinda sucks in the pow.

2ndly, this thing is really narrow for as 164.
On a normal board I'd be able to use the holes in the disks to get a little farther back on the board, but because it's so narrow, I have to use them to center the binding on the board

It took me almost all day on Fri to get my Frankensteined Burton CO2's to fit properly. All day & I still couldn't get them the way I wanted.
After a whole wasted day, I switched em out with a pair of cheap Hammer bindings(probably worth $40) Much better, could actually ride the thing.

You know, the whole time I was up at whistler on friday I didnt even think to move my bindings back.

Probably explained a couple of the headers I took

Oh well, Baker on Saturday! Pushing them allllllllll the way back!

timmytard · 12-23-2012, 06:28 PM

I have a buddy who has a Brand new 2011 Never Summer Revolver 159 with the White top sheet.

He also has a brand new 2011 Never Summer Evo 153 with the Black top sheet.

He wants $275 a piece. I don't think they will last too long @ that price, so get a hold of me quick if you want one.

They both have the same graphics, the Evo is black the Revolver is white.

Well, you better prepare for possibly the best day of your life then.

& only be half as tired @ the end of the day.

Because it makes all the difference in the world.
