^^The endless stupidity of the endlessly stupid. You don't know where any of "us" ski or what lite gear we sometimes might be skiing. You don't even know what alpine means or Nordic. You don't even know what your own skis are modeled after. BUT we all know one thing from your flailing in videos: YOU CANNOT SKI ON EVEN A LOW INTERMEDIATE LEVEL.

This morning Manny is shooting all over himself because he found .... pictures of skis! He found one pic of those totally shitty white USGI planks stored in a cave in Europe! They sold for like 30 bux online to anyone stupid enough to buy those heavy, straight pieces of shit. Manny says finding that pic is living proof Ttalk can become an amazing source of information! Way to go Manny! But newsflash, those skis have been around forever and really are just junk.

I should mention that also today TM is rambling on @ttalk, same old shit, same bullsit claims, same nonsense as always.. Double camber! (which he does not ski except with those worthless E99's); leather is better-- because it has no torsional rigidity; 10-ft long poles are the best and smartest! Bla bla bla.. Manny + Gt= exponential bullshit x ego with no limit.

In 20 years of TM repeating his spiel continuously on ski forums, no one, not a single skier, has ever agreed with his ski gear rambles and rants. So why does he keep it up? Hoping for attention, that's all.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah, stupid is as stupid does. Arc on boys, ooopppsss...something that you can't do on your Alpine ski's bindings and boots. Free it up boys and feel the feel. TM

Ahhh Manny, bragging it up about all his computer detective work which reveals exactly where on the planet skis that NO ONE WOULD WANT are stored. Those fucking clunky old NATO planks might make lawn chairs but nothing else.

Hahaha, today Burb at Ttalk brags about the lite gear he "learned" to Tele on, problem is he never learned, that expert does not know how to pole right! Of course Manny jumps right in to boost Burp up and declare the greatness of floppy gear. This is the new Ttalk! --Johnny jizzed on himself reading the posts! And then went out and bought another NTN or TTS setup.

Hilarious! Big news! On low angle terrain in the northeast, heavier gear is- at least sometimes- not required, you can ski it ok with any not-active bindings, "full boot with support"(??), edged, low camber (low camber?) ski.. Wait, that's enough to "get started, and none of it applies to skimo. Wtf? The only qualification he left out was decent snow conditions. Gotta say, Manny is just a treasure of profound ski info.

Yeah, east coast or west coast light gear is limited by conditions. When your goal is fun, you will have more of it on heavier gear. Mannys goal isn’t to have fun so he doesn’t have that perspective.

Earth-shaking news! You can ski bunny meadows and golf courses on sloppy gear! Well, provided the snow is not too shitty.

What's hilarious is how puffed up this Manny is about his "master list" of military ski setups. And yet apparently neither he nor Johnny have the ability to learn anything from it, like on the really alpine slopes, the military goes for tech bindings and plastic boots and "downhill" skis, on the more mellow terrain, it's the likes of modified 3pin cables, military boots and at least heavier Xcd skis. The setuos of Xplore, NNN/Bc and NN with no cables are not even options and some old scrawny junk ski like the E99 would be laughed at.

^^^Yea, because what went on 100 years ago is still state of the art? Shut up you old fool. Even the 10th Mnt. Division used bear trap bindings and skis that could be turned. Sell your nonsense to fools dumb enough to believe it.

In the Vermont special ops, it's floppy leather boots, 3pins with NO CABLES and E99's!! And TM is the head instructor! The rest of the world is just wrong, by gum!!!

No idea what Bruce is insulting others for and I don't think he was ever in the 10th Mountain Division on skis . Here's a link to the original gear they used for skiing which included skins, bear traps, low-cut leather boots and old poles with powder baskets and metal-edged "straight" skis. No braided cables in the bindings. Bear Traps are like a primitive Voile 3PC but without any significant redundancy. Museum of 10th Mnt. Ski Gear etc
