I've heard good things.
I probably would've gone for something a little bigger.

Yeah, I use a 24l non-airbag pack and have space but if I was getting a capacitor bag I think I'd want it for hut trips.

I went snowboarding a few weeks ago at Dodge Ridge in California

First time I have ever been to the snow in my life :o

People who tell you surfers translate to snowboarding well are full of shit - there is nothing, I repeat nothing in common :x

I wiped out so many times, and my body was sore for a week. One fall I took at high speed as some dumb cnut wiped out in front of me and rather than move just sat in the middle of the run taking in the mountain air as I was bearing down on him. I couldn't turn fast enough and hit the ground so hard it sent up a shower of snow in the process. I asked the stupid American cnut if he was planning on having a picnic and he looked at me with these idiot hu-moon eyes and didn't say anything. :x

Despite that it was fcuken fun, I'll be back next season!

Those people are called gapers.
They look at you with eyes and mouth agape, unable even to comprehend their own stupidity.

Once you get into powder it translates, but I agree the first few days suck.

Apparently it relates more to skateboarding than surfing.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

lol. i can just see it.
seriously tho', the shit this place proffers is just astounding. dead estates, hard times (i doubt) .. offspring offloading, (probs most likely) ...the mind boggles at the wealth and excess some people 'round here have grifted, accumulated, acquired is just that: mindboggling.

Can’t justify the cost vs quality of snow in Australia.
