I recently broke my ski at a tournament. @ColeGiacopuzzi had me set up on his back up ski right away and @Horton shipped me a loner by mid-week. These guys are awesome!

@Jody_Seal the switch I bought is just at a year old and Jr hasn't used it much since he was injured last year. I'll call Perfect Pass for an exchange but would like to know if there is an easier fix. I have two switches now that are questionable. @Horton may have a fix after talking to Will Bush tonight.

Heard about the video posted on BOS from a Baller I recognized at BWI airport.

Jr had a few good jumps (on video) but decided to pass on fourth after a ‘lean lock.’ He fortunately fell easy after the ‘pass’. Continued on to ski again!

Thanks guys! I ordered one from Perfect Pass. @BoneHead let me know if you find yours and I'll buy it for a backup.

Does anyone have a jump switch for sale or know where to buy a new one? I checked the shops online and nothing shows up. I appreciate any help you can provide.

Thanks Brad! Really appreciate your support and patience with him. Maybe he can start coaching us?

Thanks @Horton for the DB trophies. The custom detailed design on the trophies is amazing! Now I have the boy remodeling his room to hang them.

Thanks @mmosley899 and @rico definitely good news!

@horton you forget who is your driver?

@eleeski been meaning to get with you on the New Years fiasco! Thanks for putting the kids up I owe you for that! Snowboard is done I was actually going to ski but last minute changed to the snowboard.

 

Will definitely look into the power vest and yes I have the rubber bands just have to wait 3 more weeks now.

 

I need to get one of the kids a new Goode does anyone know if they are still running the special?

@mmosley899 how long did it take for your recovery? I'm just now able to put on a shirt with minor pain but still can't reach across my chest.

@6balls what grade was yours? I'm going to follow the doc's orders on this.

I recently took a nasty fall snow boarding and suffered an AC Joint Separation. The ER doc said I may need surgery to fix but to follow-up with a orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine. Finally saw a well respected surgeon in LA and his diagnosis was that it’s a Grade 2 (no need for surgery unless I want to remove the bump for cosmetic reasons). Have to rest it for 4 more weeks then start rehab and follow up with him in 6 weeks. No winter skiing for me which I was looking forward to with @colebrah and @rico!

 

Has anyone been through this type of injury here? What exercises did you do to get back on the water?

 

Here is xray from Mammoth ER

 

I tried the 2011 Strada and really liked it enough to add it in the collection but then drank the Razor koolaid.

I tried to follow you and pack it and pay him later but he wouldn't let it out of sight.

Yes can't have Eric showing me the way!

I made a mistake and tried Horton’s Nano One this weekend. Unbelievable ski! First set and went deep into 35. I’ve only just started to run 35s and this ski felt so much easier and less work. After three sets I’m sold, this ski gets you wide, early and is amazingly stable. Since last year I’ve tried a-lot of Horton’s skis and bit on two of his earlier skis and remained convinced that the last one was it. Now as much as I hate to admit it he was right again that I (and others) should give this one a try. Well I just drank the cool aide and now have to convince the wife I need $2k for another ski.

Thanks Kelvin! This will work.

Thanks MS

I'm looking for a 3-event logo/print to make some T-shirts for our Jr Development clinic. Does anyone have some image files of this that I could use?

Thanks
