MW Regionals was a great time this year. conditions got a little breezy occasionally. all in all a good weekend. here is a pic with Nate Smith skiing http://sdrv.ms/Tb5CmL
my album also has some pics of @MS ripping it up on the Monza for the last time http://sdrv.ms/OUd30E
i learned to ski the course on a 2003 O'brien Siege (i still have it in the garage). they used the mapple mold to make it but with a softer flex. i was 130-135lbs at the time and skied from 26-36MPH. finally got rid of it when i started running 36 more consistently.
sorry if this offends anybody, I don't remember who it was. i watched a driver pull the #1 seed girls 3 slalom skier over the island at MW regionals last year.
What about slightly shorter lines? Would this apply? I typically have no trouble with -22 at 36mph. Then -28 feels like -43 for me. Guessing I must be giving up the handle early and losing my outbound direction.
I set my rear boot straight and tighten screws as much as possible without stripping inserts. after 2 sets. boot is rotated all the way to the right (LFF). so, that's where i leave it
I had a snapping turtle pop its head up right in front of me as i was about to turn in for the gates last year. I swear it was about 3 feet in diameter. Me and the turtle had the same expression on our faces. Holy S#!T
