Coiler is sold, please consider the Donek!

I get the privilege of trying one of Sean's skinny prototypes over the next few days. 15cm waist. Seems kinda wide. My Snowpro bindings aren't able to...

The only trades I'm interested in are for skwals, skwal bindings, or skinny Virus or similar boards. I received an offer for one of the boards, but I'm not ready to come down on price yet. For...

It's the Hello Kitty Moving Sale.

Coiler AM-T 171x18.5. This is the first board I ever had made custom for myself around November of 2011. Although it doesn't look like it, this is the AM (All...

My "Hello Kitty" boards:

2012 Donek MFC 177 x 18.5 with the 12-16 sidecut from the 185. Built for me at 135 lbs.
2012 Coiler AM-T 171 x 18.5. P-Tex topsheet. Built for me at 135 lbs.

What is the common knowledge out there regarding skwal waist widths? My current skwal, the only one I have ever ridden, has a 12cm waist. From what I understand, this is the most common width. (is...

I cooked up my dehydrated hash browns this morning that were FREE with my admission to the Idaho Potato Museum. Isn't it fortuitous that these neighboring Wydaho states supply BOTH of the necessary...

Seen today in Riverton, WY on the long, long drive home.

I woke up in Jackson and looked around. With all the arty and touristy shops, it seems like far too many rich people hang out here. It has that Aspen or Vail feel that I'm not sure I like, but at...

Today I went to the Potato Museum and the Museum of Idaho. I got a free pint carton of Idaho's finest dehydrated hash browns. Now I know more about Idaho than people who know nothing about Idaho. ...

I think the next day is 164, but the data needs a good scrubbing.

I'm in Wells, NV. Big fat hairy deal. I've got accommodations in Driggs for Thursday night thru Sunday morning, and bought 2 days worth of lift tickets in advance. I'm on the way. The Idaho...

Tuesday morning Heavenly at open was pretty good. Orion and Olympic were firm, tight and fast on a beautiful sunny morning. Nice. I only did a few runs so I could get on the road and drive down...

Minnie Driver maybe, perhaps even probably, but what guy needs a reference photo of Mila Kunis? In the Minnie case, I had the Grosse Point Blank curly hair in mind. Everybody should watch GPB.

Saturday morning at Heavenly. I arrive at Stagecoach stupid early to make sure I get a good parking spot. Because I want to avoid the weekend crowds, my strategy is to head directly for Olympic and...

Yesterday and overnight saw all kinds of weather, including a little rain at my 7400' condo. Up on the hill, however, I think it was nearly all snow. Heavenly reports 3" of new, so I'll stay local...

I suppose that it must be on the morning side of the hill, given that the lift is called "Sunrise", but I don't know what direction is which. Today I went to nearby Heavenly at open. 2nd chair on...

I went to Kirkwood this morning and had a great time. I could go again on Friday if the weather is ok. So today I got first chair and headed straight for the back side on a couple of Kirkwood's...

I'm interested, particularly if "Hello Kitty" versions can be made. They just have to be pleasantly flexy, not emasculatingly flaccid.

Kind of. This is my "Get away from Colorado's spring break" spring break trip. Right now it seems like the big challenge in picking a run is avoiding the thaw-freeze iciness. Higher is generally...

I can't possibly compete with a guy that is 22 years younger than me. I'm lucky that I can just get out of bed. In those pictures, I was doing my best to whore it up for the EpicMix photographer at...

Too tired and lazy to drive any distance, I went back to Heavenly at the 9AM Monday morning open. Up Stagecoach and Dipper, down the California Trail, up the Sky Lift to hit High Five which was one...

I haven't decided where I'm going to ride tomorrow. No new is in the immediate forecast and temps may not go below freezing overnight. I only brought two boards: Mr. Flaccid the Skwal is the...

Two long days of driving, 970 miles covered, 22 gallons of gas, 1 speeding ticket, and I'm in Tahoe. Last night was spent in Eureka, NV, one of the few towns on US 50. Eureka is being broken out of...
