We’ve all heard the phrase “the devil is in the details”. Here’s a little detail that will make a difference in the color of your toes over the winter and help you avoid six months of black toenails, than losing the toenails sometime midsummer. This little tip comes in extra handy if, like me, you buy your boots down a size or two. CLIP YOUR TOENAILS! Simple as that.  Roadside Pedicure Seriously, how can you not like this guy? Besides the fact that he drives his poor man’s Prius up to use his poor man’s heli (splitboard) and slays the bejeezus out of any line, he’s down to earth and trying to bring snowboarding back to it’s roots. Love it. Sadly ESPN won’t let you embed in HD/widescreen, so the 4:3 version is below.
I filled this out awhile back but came across it again while looking for a different survey to post and figured I’d throw it up there for others as the more data the better. The Canadian Avalanche Centre and Simon Fraser University are conducting a survey on attitudes and decision making as it relates to go/no go decisions for resort accessed backcountry riding – and your input can help make a difference. The goal is to use their findings to help develop better risk awareness and assessment tools for other slackcountry skiers and snowboarders. If the warm fuzzies that you are helping to contribute to more educated backcountry users isn’t enough they are also doing a drawing for schwag. You may win a Tracker DTS beacon, one of two Black Diamond Bandit Avalung packs, or one of two Transfer 3 shovel and probe sets. Yes, I want to give my input! For what it’s worth, I was hesitant at first as it sounds like another internet “we got your email address hahahahaha” type scams but read their privacy policy and it’s legit, part of which is below.
