Hi all, and, smiles from Tahoe! :D

First two days spent at Northstar doing groomer skiing. Yeah, groomer skiing...Tahoe needs snow. It great to ski with Phil and the Gathering team. We had a group of 11 today, all love to ski and enjoy life.

I've not skied my skis ( that changes today ). Phil gave me Blizzard Bonifides for Sat morning, and, then, I did an exchange with someone with the same boot size and did Hart Pulse's in the PM. I owned the Pulse (78 waist) 3 years ago and always wanted to try them again. On hard snow, they were great. Fact is that I know how to ski a narrower ski, still trying to figure out wider skis. Bonifides were far better at firm goomer skiing than I would have predicted, but, conditions did not soften to determine what all the love is about.

Yesterday demo'd 2013 Blizzard M 85 in a 174 all day. Serious high speed, GS radius ski. It needs a better skier to make it sing.

It's first light and we did get some new snow (not much here in the valley), but, it's off to work  I go.

And, yes Svend, LP needs a quiver mod, but, the daily driver will be a narrower hard snow carver.

enjoy your day
