Hey Rock, we will be up here at the house....Horseshoes and when it gets warmer..(this weekend?)...er....the coming weekend....will get a comp from Kurt and try out the gts extremes I have rehabilitated....If they make an entire run...just one I will be a very happy Telemarker!!!!! Figure you should take your skis down to Washington...hell they got tons more snow than we did!!!!!! So LC if you read this....can't go over to the other thread as some very nasty thingers come out of the woodwork....but.....We do take the turn as the most important aspect of the two....Getting there has never been a problem with pins....NNN might be a bit better....but....the down is better with pins and that is the number one thing for us....Another thing....fewer moving parts usually means better reliability....We are sticking to pins...Nothing WRONG with nnn...we just like pins better....TM

109's did well on hardpack...er....at least they did what they were supposed to do.....On softening hardpack they were good but needed at least a 190 for serious cruising at a downhill area....The Boys went over to Stowe yesterday and figure they had a blast on soft corn.....Lots of cars in Pinkham Notch.....looked like a bunch were heading up to Tuckerman's.....Gulf of slides started out with decent cover way up but looked like mostly nothing way down below...East Snowfields were still covered....Ski up and down is on the agenda....But places like Tucks are over for this oldie....TM
