How's your jones?

[mattchuck2]

Jones is up. Powder came today, completing the trilogy.

I, too, need new boots and I'm scrounging the Buyer's guides for what's good. Thinking Tecnica Agent 110, Fischer Progressor 120, Tecnica Dragon 120, Atomic Hawx 120, Salomon Impact 10 CS, or Rossi Zenith Sensor3 110.

Now I just have to wait for the night where I try them all on.

Intuition Liner = Sweet. Potentially lots of forward flex, stiff laterally. Can be made stiffer all around with the base board, stiff tongue and flex adjustment doo-hickey. Personally, I have mine set as soft as possible. Try them on. Pros are lower volume than the Cross's.

Don't bother with anything else. Mount them right on the line, detune tips and tails and you're rockin'. Probably real similar to your Candids.

Pretty much answers my potential questions about the boots. How heavy are they?

Figured as much with the skis. Too bad the link has nothing longer than 175. I need 180's or so.

I'm saving that until I scrape the summer wax off.

I'm always jonesing to ski...except when I'm skiing.

Trailer for the latest from Powderwhores. Wow, that just jumped the Jones to an 8.5.

This not skiing into June and July due to injury thing serious jumps the Jones up much earlier than I am used to!!!

You'd better not be going hippy on me!

Nah, I can appreciate fine pornography such as that without being a participant in their deviant lifestyle choice of heel preference.

horrible..way worse than ever..but more reason to make 09-10 an epic season..I just need better attitude..it's September in a few days..

 

[WoodCore]

My "jones" factor is actually not bad at all! In fact, thanks to finding a new passion in mountain biking over the summer I really haven't thought about it that much.

 

[sLoPeS]

might wax some skis today, its getting bad...

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

really really bad..

 

[kingslug]

It would be nice if we get the same amount of H2O falling from the sky every week.......this winter....in a different form.

The Kryptons seem light to me. Certainly the lightest boots I've ever owned. Probably not A/T light, but still pretty light.

I'm on the 175 cm Twisters. Perfect length for me but I'm a bit smaller than you.

 

[Greg]

Definitely a nice spike lately with the cooler late summer temps! Soon, folks. Soon.

 

[Moe Ghoul]

A solid 5 outta 10 with the crisp cool sleeping weather.

 

[bvibert]

The cool weather lately is certainly helping to boost the jones. It didn't even hit 70 at my house yesterday.

Really don't need AT light, but don't want heavy. This sounds good.

My Candides are 180 and perfect in length. Won't go any shorter for a competitive bump ski.
