Someone stole my 6 year old Glissade 168 longboard (now called big
gun) and I am very sad. This board did everything: power, crud,
groomers, ice. Flakey old Glissade will not be able to replace it

bummer man.. sorry to hear that.

Off the runs, where I do most of my riding, the Pacific Northwest
offers two snow conditions: Fresh with crud and no-fresh with crud,
where crud means bumps with textures ranging from soft to ice
commonly in the same run. Oh, yes and I love riding in crud.

Dude.. great to see somebody that just likes to ride, period! Great
inspiration to get me out tomorrow. This is my fourth winter in VT
and last year I finally started going out as long as it was over -5
by 10am. Even did a -10 with calm wind. So a high of 0 tomorrow
will feel warm
