    Quiver Question

    Jski master blaster 96 under foot. My only ski. At some point I want to get Edge 88 for daily skiing but have not gotten around to it. I am sure there about 6 different skis that I could insert into that 84-88 range when I get around to it.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    Rivian's doesn't compare to FSD, but even the Rivian version makes long road trips so chill. We were packed to the gills with 6 (3 5'9 or taller) and 6 skis. Probably could have fit like two more large grocery bags on the way home but that it is it. The rivian seats 7, but with all the gear...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    I hear ya. I have not researched it, but from a common sense perspective I would bet the ski racks that go on the back of cars and tilt the head of ski in further than the tails on each side of the rack and have the topsheets perpendicular to the direction of travel (lie a T) are probably much...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    Could have but it was a logistics issue - we are sleeping in North Creek, and I have been getting crushed by having the skis up top - my house to Queensbury charger is 221 miles - pretty perfect even in winter. But I have 4 sets of skis up top - on the way up I would have just limped into...

    Pulling 140kw from the Chestertown Tesla charger with the Rivian provides adapter for a quick top off.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    Public service announcement: The clifton park tesla charger is awesome. Now the answer - I took a beating, but I am not sure how much was the wind, and how much was the drag from the skis. A 22% reduction from what I normally see on a similar trip, though the wind was much worse than what I...

    Skiing Whales

    I guess I would say, in some sense it is just like skiing bumps but super magnified: you want to, to the extent you can (physics), keep your center of gravity flowing in a smooth line - watch a youtube video of olympic bump skiers: from thigh down, things are going crazy (ie lots of quick...

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    My kids went (Note to self: when you say take a lap on the green chair, apparently you have to say, don't go in the glades). It was apparently thin cover. Instructors said no bueno and a patroller said he won't even go in to check it (other patrollers are right now). YMMV. Good luck. I...

    Where are you skiing this week?

    Pete we are grabbing a lesson at 9 and should be at the hill by 8:15. I usually jump in that green sunway chair for a run or two before a 9 am lesson. I think you remember but I have the shock green helmet.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Whenever we are up, night skiing at the bowl is a family tradition on new year's eve. We will probably do it tomorrow when we get up. Sometimes it is only 30 minutes because the run is so short, but it is fun. Maybe you have to park 100 feet away. Not sure of age, but if they can get down...
