Vaya con Dios Amigos
Re: Vaya con Dios Amigos
Imo "protagonist" and "antagonist" in this case are a little bit of a Grey area. Who is antagonizing who? To the onlooker with no vested interest or personal experience with any of the parties (some I question the authenticity, they are likely pseudonym for other members), everyone seems to be antagonizing eachother. Not enough new products? Lack of snow?

I admit that Manney and I have skiied together--once, a few years ago. But that's not why I like his style on the boards.
Live and let live, brothers and sisters of the snow!

Re: Vaya con Dios Amigos
First off, I am relatively new to TT and to Telemark overall. I've learned so much from the regulars in the two short years I've been here.
To be completely honest, I am slightly surprised by the magnitude of calamity caused by a few posters here.
To me, tele is the philosophy first and foremost, and then it is skiing. I guess that's why I like HOKs though they don't glide that much, hah. The philosophy manifests itself in solitude and focus, in finding slopes less traveled away from crowds, in the physical effort climbing them, and then in the reward of wind stroking your hair when you go downhill. If you don't agree with somebody, just pick a different slope, and don't give up on skiing, speaking metaphorically. Account deactivation seems like an overreaction to me.

I believe they were deactivated by force. A shame really , I almost knew absolutely everything about T4's and Hypervectors, now what?
