I always lock our boards. The lock I use weighs 0.4lbs. Worth it to carry around.

Seems 10x worse than at the beach because you have big groups of people leaving all their equipment in one area. So ripe for the picking... and if these dirt bags get caught pulling it from the rack they can feign ignorance and claim they thought it was their board.

So happy to see people getting caught and charged with grand theft.

We strap our boards to the rack with the ankle strap. It's not perfect but it slows a thief from grabbing as they move past and they grab the next one instead. If I'm going to be away from it for a while I find a place inside to stash it.

I always use a lock. I had the wicked small DaKine one but the numbers were too hard to read bc I’m old so I gave it away and got the bigger one smh

POWDER WATCH! February 2-7 Brings A Messy Week Of Heavy Precipitation (Warm to Cold).

Good morning everyone. The west has been stuck in a transition period of teasing wet snow for the PNW and stubborn temps bringing poor liquid to snow ratios. The Wasatch was teased Thursday with 1-4 inches. The last storm dropped south and brought 7 inches to Sundance and Eagle Point and an...

I always get a shitload more shavings. I like his style though.

Im a big fan of Japanese style, design, etc in general and he’s got it going on. I love his workspace/bench area. So far it definitely helped me use less wax but like a lot of (Japanese?) things/techniques they’re deceptively simple bc I still ended up with a bunch of shavings and dust. Def going to fuck with some more.

Almost blew it off but since there wasn’t any wax on it went to town first on the edges with the gummy stone, hit the one chewed up spot with the mini diamond file some more and ran the diamond disc bevel along the side cut edges at 88deg.

that video post above is kind of intriguing to me. I am pretty board with snowboarding but I am enjoying my attempts at those carves on groomers. I will try the shoulder positioning next time.

Big Bear is getting wrecked with high 50’s for days now and ahead. Snow moving in Thursday though and we are planning to go Friday when it’s moving out. Hoping it’s enough to cover what is sure to be frozen corn.
