Mona,
CEO is hard earned not bought - you need to work 7 days a week for at least 18 years before you can be there... so continue working hard...I am sure you will be there. Simply organize a skiing event will never elevate you to where you dreamt to be.
Thanks your email and I shall contact when I go skiing next time.

Daxigua,
I will try to convince Martin to go with me ... wink wink wink if snow condition is good -- because skiing is one the most wonderful thing that one can truly enjoy.

Quinstinstic,
I am sure that you will catch me very fast if we go together twice a week (but stop wasting your time on green runs - you need hills to give you momentum to be inspired on carving/turning.
Ok, let's see if weather will turn good this weekend but I am only available on Sunday (if I do go.) email me your telephone number so that I can call you if I decide to go. Buy your skis now or you will be paying a lot more after the season.
Whistler will be on the agenda for next winter since I still need to work hard enough to accumulate my vacation days - for now, let's continue to sharpen up the saw here.
White Face (Lake Placid in NY), where the Winter Olympic was held, has great deals during the weekdays. Do you want to go for 2 nights?
Quinstinstic,
Got some info for you today - Atomic Beta C 9.20 is a private label from Sports Expert and that is of the exact same quality/performance as C 9.18 (made by the same factory) except that Sports Expert ordered its own colors (because they have enough buying powers).
Andre Larond right now has super specials for C 9.18 blue color at $500 + taxes including factory installed bindings.
Let me know when you have picked up those and we can go skiing together. With your new boots and your passion with snow, I will soon have a good skiing buddy.
Folks, I got the Atomic R10 boots. What a beauty!!!! I couldn't stop staring at it. Too bad the skiing season is almost over, but next year... hehehe... <evil grin>...
Did you see any shops carry Volkl skis. I heard they are very nice but hard to track down.
Martin, if you really want to challenge yourself, you can go to Mad River Glen in Vermont. I read a review on Golobe & Mail, and it said the place is really tough. wink
Wow, I must see your new boots...maybe by the end of next winter season, I will get a new pair too so that I can ride on double diamonds the following season...
Sorry I have no info about this skis since I have over-invested on my skis this season (bought them twice - I am still trying to sell the ones bought in Nov).
