Baller bishop8950 Posted September 4, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 4, 2021 I have quit my job twice, in April and “took 6mo off” so I could ski more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Kimbymon Posted September 5, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 5, 2021 You scream “keep it in the course” to cars on the freeway when they can’t seem to “pick a lane”.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ lpskier Posted September 6, 2021 Baller_ Share Posted September 6, 2021 @Ajskier That was a serious question: are you Canadian? It seems like you have to wait an inordinately long period of time for your surgery, and I have heard that frequently happens with orthopedic surgery in Canada. Hence my question.

Baller Ajskier Posted September 7, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 7, 2021 @MDB1056 first set out was a success, just ran my opener a bunch and the knee was fine. So I am going to try an pack in a summers worth of skiing in the next month and half. @lpskier Nope not Canadian. The reason for waiting for the surgery was because I am doing a pretty big home renovation project that was supposed to start in May, but didn't get started until the end of July, which I am hoping that it will be done by the time I go in for surgery in Nov. I tore down my old garage and building a new 42'w x 30'd with a walk up second floor. Contractor has really been dragging his feet. Had I known that this thing was going to be delayed so much, I would have opted for surgery right after the injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller tru-jack Posted September 7, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 7, 2021 @lpskier as a Canadian you’re not incorrect, however @Jody_Seal comment above is truly Canadian. ‘Hold my beer… watch this’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ lpskier Posted September 7, 2021 Baller_ Share Posted September 7, 2021 @tru-jack A good friend of my who lives in Calgary but spends significant time skiing in Orlando tore his rotator cuff skiing in Orlando. He returned home to see his ortho and was told that he needed surgery and the next available slot was more than two months out. He returned to Otown and got it fixed that week. And that was in a big city hospital in Calgary. Cancer treatment, on the other hand, I understand to be first class. Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted October 8, 2021 Baller_ Share Posted October 8, 2021 ...you injure your hand, arm or shoulder doing some stupid non skiing activity and immediately find a way to check if it affects your ability to hold on to the load of a ski handle.

Baller Ski2000 Posted October 8, 2021 Baller Share Posted October 8, 2021 @Wish and the best way to check, of course, is to ski ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ski2000 Posted October 9, 2021 Baller Share Posted October 9, 2021 Or you cut your finger mostly off in November, but have lessons at TBC in January, so you do 3 finger pull-ups to make sure you have the strength to make it through the week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Taynton Posted October 11, 2021 Baller Share Posted October 11, 2021 You spend 80 g on an run down RV and lot (while still paying rent for my main residence) with no hope of living there or renting it.. just because it gives you a key to the private launch on the only lake within 100 miles with a decent course. I guess the new(er) boat will have to wait lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicedme Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 When you only get to ski a couple of times a year on a dam that is so choppy it has white caps but still go for as many skis as possible. Am at least 6 months away from my next ski but have just ordered a new ski and still look at BOS everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 2Valve Posted October 12, 2021 Baller Share Posted October 12, 2021 four hours after winterizing your boat, your buddy tells you that you and him are going on a road trip, towing his old Nautique to FL to stay at his brother's house in Ft. Myers, and ski every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ScarletArrow Posted October 13, 2021 Baller Share Posted October 13, 2021 You read a 21 page thread on BOS even if you’re not sure what people are arguing about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowballer Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 When everyone asks you why there is a ski handle hooked to your wall in your construction trailer..... and you actually take so much time explaining it to them that they lose interest.

jtcatskills Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 When you jack something in your hip in August that makes it a little painful to walk some days. But then realize skiing doesn't bother it a bit. So you adjust your primary mode of transportation to be behind a boat. There are no problems, only solutions.

Baller usaski1 Posted October 18, 2021 Baller Share Posted October 18, 2021 When, from the age of 13, all you ever wanted in life was to live on a ski lake. You finally make that happen, at age 30, but it requires you to move 1800 miles from where you grew up, and you and your wife have to quit your good jobs, and find new jobs. It’s all worked out though. Wife is no longer around, but that’s a minor consequence for living on a ski lake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Skoot1123 Posted October 20, 2021 Baller Share Posted October 20, 2021 Some writes on BOS to “ “swing” by a hardware store”. What they really mean is that the Denali S-Wing is NOT available at a hardware store! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
