Admin - how best do I gain market information using the J2ski forum?

Thanks, Tim

Why should Admin provide you with a free facility for doing this?

J2ski is a biz, and quite a busy one too.

Machinery is involved, variable speeds, will need someone to operate it, who knows the controls. Don't know for sure, but I doubt it. Elfin Safety!

This arguement is completely irrelevant with relation to helmets.
Its the law to wear a seat belt.

Except when it isn't :D

It's horrible having your kit stolen :(

I've used one of these for several years. The cable is quite a lot thicker than the usual retractable cable locks sold to skiers. Works via a key.

In that length they must be Whitedot Ones. I thought they were a park and pipe ski, for some reason I never thought you were a park rat. :shock:

Me, I'm just full of little surprises :D

It's also an all mountain ski, has an 89 waist, fairly stiff, trad camber, skis just over head height for me.

I initially got VERY excited thinking it was like a snow dome, but it's not :(

Think small! Rolling carpet type simulator. Very intensive tuition. Great for technique. A lesson there probably equal to a half day at a snowdome. No waiting for lifts or avoiding other people ;-)

No views of mountains, or fresh air...or snow!

That is not a glancing blow is it?! Makes you shudder to think what would have been the result without a helmet.

No, it's not, I saw him fall and he headplanted (well more faceplant) and I initially didn't see the rock sticking out of his helmet. Only when he'd stood up was it quite plain :shock:

I was skiing with a 6' 3" Rhino!
