[Shadam]

those lines were the first for this season ... dang I had to wait for it ...

so we moved to tombstome bowl ... however we had 3 sleds in ther a few weeks ago but not on this slope ...

 

[Shadam]

nothing doing in golden but rain ...



totally sh!ty conditions ...

 

[Shadam]

how was your sundy ???



our go to little meadow has given up the goods so many times this season ...
just like all the other seasons. its the perfect snow catch ...

 

[Shadam]

BCAV shows the ratbaggers how to dress for revy conditions ...

 

[Shadam]

and shows how to trash a XP ...

 

[Shadam]

everyman and his dog can wrench on a yamy ...

a good melt freeze cycle and even the quads get to 2000m ...

mean while ... the back bowls were golden !!!

I got my standard 2ft of air ...

paging all the haters ...

this is wot I live for ...

 

[Shadam]

the old vector sure has a long and happy life yet to live ...

this waterfall was quite the challange to get up and over, but the old rt1000 was the only sled to get it ...

 

[Shadam]

sweet sundy no sun ...

 

[Shadam]

while I squeaked the left pot on my sled, the turbo yamy's were slaying all before them ...

thank fark I was on the front side not the back side when it happened. easy tow to the truck ...

so sundy I brought the old rt1000 out from the back shed, and she cracked hard all day with 11,380miles on her !!!

[Shadam]

meanwhile, on the way to the alpine yestdy, the snow just kept getting better and better ...



high in the alpine was sweeeeeet !!!



buddy was in a frisky frenzy ...



a nice natural feature. he was traveling 45ft distance. yes we measured it ...



so you ride a ETEC, thats great and all ... BUT CARRY FARKING SPARK PLUGS ... ITS A FARKING 2STROKE !!!

I'm so sick of babysitting people that live in golden and really should know better. no tools, no plugs ???

Don't need plugs

Got 5000 km on mine, stock plugs

 

[Shadam]

here's another look at the pocket release. we were trying to tickle it. I was surprised I didn't get it to go first time thru there ...

Hey, chit happens and I would hate to pull out a sled because one plug crapped out and the guy didn't have proper tools to change it. Shadam is correct!

 

[tex78]

True, but it's not like it used to be


Plus to do plugs trail side on a e tech is pointless

 

[ferniesnow]

I agree that it isn't like it used to be, but plugs can fail and doo fail. It is good to be prepared and trail side or not plugs on the eTec can be successfully changed if one has the right tools. The old plug tools don't fit and it takes a little preparation to be ready in case of failure.

My T3 had to get the plugs replaced under warranty. It got the cold start update done at the same time. It wouldn't start in a heated shop...

Nice pics shadam, looks like you're finding some decent snow
