I was just being sarcastic. I knew who was who.

Bode was a pleasure to listen to. He was very well spoken and interesting.

After reading the article in Ski Magazine that @snoroqc included, was Body a founder and/or partner in Bomber? Is he an owner or some type of partner in Crosson?

Wasn’t Bode saying to go for the long one? 185cm? It was a bit hard to interpret.

If I remember well, Bode was talking about the fat ski. The only length is 18x.

188 and there is a 178

No, the 78mm. @Dwight posted the video above. Bode recommends the 185cm. He’d go longer, but that’s it. But, it’s Bode.

isn't that @Philpug ?
I thought Bode is wearing the Black helmet.

LOL, Phil's head won't fit through the door after being mistaken for Bode.

Did you get to try other lengths besides the 175's? Was @Tricia on the same ski in a shorter length or a different model?

The conditions were a little boney. Bode brought out the 78 in 175cm for me to ski and another 118 for Phil in the 188cm.
Phil opted to ski the 78, and I stayed on my skis. I think Phil thought he may go back to try the 118s but we never got back to that lodge to snag them and switch me over to the 78.
We spent a solid morning with him.

Cool - Bode is rocking an optical camouflage helmet these days

Nope. Phil and I are both rocking the camoflauge Helmet

LOL, Phil's head won't fit through the door after being mistaken for Bode.

After this past week of skiing with Hall of Famers....whew!
It was a very good week for SkiTalk.com

I watched the interview last night, and really enjoyed listening to Bode. He is so very New Hampshire. I sent the interview to a friend in Europe, they said he sounded like me. It's subtle, and more than an accent, it is in the way he forms his thoughts. Anyway I love what he is doing, and if we had snow this year in the Granite State to actually use them, I would buy those 78s. I love my Navigator 85s. No doubt they have made skiing this years crap a lot more enjoyable. They have yet to let me down in any way, but I love locking into a series of carves and would like an other ski focused more on that set of skill building, so thanks Phil, your spotlight on Bode's skis have made up my mind. Next year I buy some Crossen 78s, or maybe something even narrower if they introduce it.
