  1. Its a seriously good ski, super easy to ride with bullet proof offside turns.
  2. I had a discussion with a very good skier and friend out of Germany about Nate and he summed it up better than most when he said don't try to work it out "some dudes can just ski" ...
  3. D3 way out in front but how does it look for the rest of the ski manufacturers? Anyone have any data on this?
  4. Only ski that I could run 11.25 on, so easy to ride and once its dialled in you just forget about it and ski.
  5. Long term issues with cervical stability from skiing so currently no plans to ski ever again. Ongoing balance and vision problems that I would not wish on anyone.
  6. Clearly the best skier ever with daylight in second place..
  7. Those sneaky Kiwis.. Coming to a sport near you soon. The New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard is poised to make history and headlines, as well as significant controversy, after being confirmed as the first transgender athlete to compete at an Olympic Games. The 43-year-old, who will be the fourth oldest weightlifter at an Olympics, is regarded as a genuine medal contender in the women’s super heavyweight 87kg-plus category in Tokyo. But while her inclusion has been welcomed by trans groups, it has also been questioned by those who believe she has unfair advantages in strength and power, having gone through male puberty before transitioning in 2012. Speaking after her selection was announced, Hubbard, who won silver at the 2017 women’s world championships, said she was delighted to make the Olympics after recovering from a serious arm injury at the 2018 Commonwealth Games. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2021/jun/21/olympics-tokyo-laurel-hubbard-trans-weightlifter-new-zealand https://www.dailywire.com/news/like-a-bad-joke-female-competitor-reacts-to-trans-weightlifter-competing-in-olympic-games?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=benshapiro&fbclid=IwAR08NGoIyjdLnCMP66Bl8OZSEtc9XARGMnfUxLqsd1Ylxm-wCo3J081Ny0U
  8. Tuna and drain cleaner I was told, just leave it bubbling in the can.
  9. I've read there are about 20 moving parts in a Tesla. 2000 moving parts in a traditional ICE.. I don't power generation as an issue that can't be solved, if you are half smart you will find a way to offset with solar or something. You can't get oil from the sun or wind last time I checked..
  10. Gas powered transportation will soon be looked at like Nokia phones.. I can't wait for all these electric toys to take over, even aviation is investing in electric tech now. Wheels will be optional one day in the not to distant future..
  11. @Horton nailed it. The bigger you are the shorter the line you ski the more you feel in both systems, PP and ZO.
  12. Who gets their lake water tested, how often if ever? Or do people just ski and assume its ok? Chatting to an ex pro skier about this who got really sick years ago after competing on a pretty suspect site, skin sores, rashes and weight loss. Recovery was long and slow..
  13. If you apply some discipline and do this one "correct thing" at the end of the turn then a sequence of events pretty much just happen as a consequence of that one thing. If you don't do the "correct thing" you will spend your life wondering how the hell good skiers run short line.
  14. The new GT just delivered a new era of brain damage for skiers to tinker with. I can already see the new whisper tail coming...
  15. With respect unless something has changed a Lewis is a pile of junk compared to a Malibu / MC / Nautique.
