It's just too bad most of Big White's trees are white too!
That's why they have a Snow Ghost Express.
Probably the most interesting spot in a white out is Sun Rype (sic) Bowl. A snow ghost is a very solid obstacle!

I’m 37... Getting old sucks!
I'm looking at these more seriously now. I may do a diy or one of the generic versions since it's been a very expensive couple weeks for me.
Are you using one of the door/door jam mounts? If so does it work alright? Haven't ripped the door of the hinges yet??
Thanks

We have one of these ... we also use the extension strap over a beam in the basement ... but before we moved in here, we used the door adapter for 6 months in an apartment. No issues; it was solid.The Pro version includes the extension strap that I have slung over a beam in the "less finished" part of our basement. I haven't tried the door adapter yet, but it does hold the promise of making the system portable if I ever want to take it with me somewhere. You just have to be sure you have an 8'x6' space and at least 6' of height from the anchor point.

Sage Dad.5. As my dad once told me "fight aging with everything you've got, but accept it gracefully -- you can't stop it".
At some point find a way to make time for serious strength training. Body by Science only takes 15-30 minutes max.
I've been reading that book. Only through the first few chapters, deep into the 'science' part.
As a former competitive cyclist and runner I'm finding it VERY interesting! Making me second guess my high school XC coaches who had us running 80-100 miles per week preparing for 5k races. And questioning my own designed training plans that had me riding 30 hours a week for a 90 minute crit race or a 3 hour mtb race.
I'm looking at the big 5 exercises they recommend, I'm cross referencing those with suspension trainer and resistance band workouts that are similar since I don't have access to all the equipment.
Great read, I'd second the recommendation to read the book.

Yeah. That must be it.There’s NO talking, just music, which is I think why I stick with it.
Do you have announcers on yours at all? I've just been getting the video feed with random sounds from on the hill.
The next season was very fortunate to do a bumps clinic early in the 2 month trip. The instructor watched one run of bump skiing and straight out asked if I got sore knees. Began changing the technic from that point and extremely happy that sore knees are a thing of the past.
Geepers, could you post or pm me what the instructor told you that helped the knees. Curious am try to get more edge angle without the knee pain, just don't bend the knees like used too.
I remember when the idea was you needed to put in 2k "base miles" in the spring to get ready for the bike race season.. I'm out of touch with serious racing these days.. I wonder if that is still the philosophy being used..I've been reading that book. Only through the first few chapters, deep into the 'science' part.

I have a chinning bar mounted in a doorway and I have my TRX attached to that so far so good (I weigh 175lbs)I'm looking at these more seriously now. I may do a diy or one of the generic versions since it's been a very expensive couple weeks for me.
