Super Bowl LIV Printable Props Bet Sheet

Hey everyone, now I know this isnt directly directed to any fantasy football platform/player but I thought for those throwing SB parties or work with a bunch of people watching the game this may be a fun way to add a little fantasy football/competition/betting. Its a printable props betting sheet with a bunch of different categories (OveUnder, Yes/No Props, Halftime show, Commercial, ect). Works great and the website has a live answer sheet to refer to to tally up the score. It also gives people involved that arent well versed in football (like the girlfriends of my friend group) a chance to do well with the categories like Heads/Tails, Commercials, and Halftime show props to balance out the player and team specific prop bets.
I have no affiliation to this, just thought some others may enjoy adding some wagering this their SB festivities as I have over the past 4 years.
Edit: Thank you for the Platinum, Gold and Silver I am just happy to help make peoples Super Bowl experience more enjoyable. https://sites.google.com/site/printablesuperbowlpropbets/

SUNDAY GAMES

Seattle/Buffalo: Alrighty! First match up of the day and its my Super bowl predicted team. A West coast team traveling east for a 1pm game. Usually a look at the East coast team. However Seattle and Wilson are 18-6 in the last 24 1pm East coast starts, winning their last 10 in a row! The Seahawks have covered five of their last seven games and have won 10 of their last 12 games as a road favorite. In player news, "All-Pro Safety Jamal Adams, Seattle's biggest offseason acquisition, is expected to return Sunday after missing four games with a groin injury. Two-time Pro Bowl defensive end Carlos Dunlap is set to make his Seahawks debut after being acquired in a trade last week with Cincinnati and defensive tackle Damon "Snacks" Harrison, another former Pro Bowler, is close to being in game shape after being signed as a free agent.
On the other side, Buffalo is coming off a narrow divisional win vs New England and has only covered once in their last 5 games. "Bills center Mitch Morse was knocked out on the third play against the Patriots and remains in the concussion protocol. Receiver John Brown (knee), defensive end Jerry Hughes (foot) and cornerback Josh Norman (hamstring) have also missed practice time this week."
The Bills and Allen started the year hot with a 12-1 TD/INT ratio in the first 4 game. Only to throw a 4/4 ratio in the last 4 games.
There is great weather for a northeast game in November and with all the news and trends it would look like an easy spot to take SEA and the Over. The scary thing about committing to that is the MAJORITY of bets on this game are on SEA and the over...But, every time the line hits 3, it wont cross to 3.5 and most often doesnt stay at 3 for long. Also, the total opened at 55.5 but has RLM to as low as 54 in some books! The only other reason I can see for SEA possibly playing a flat game is that they just played 2 divisional games and after this have two more (one being the rematch of their only loss so far) With this game being non-conference AND SEA having it squeezed in between 4 divisional games, maybe I could see them spending more effort on the divisional games?
Either way, my algo has this as 27 24 SEA with the most favorable prop to target as Cole Beasley (SEA D is weak, but its WEAKEST point is vs slot receivers and WTF are these lines, 4.5 REC and 50 yards? Hes averaging 5 Rec and 60+ yards per game...)


DenveAtlanta: Next up we have a rather pointless game (for playoff implications). ATL is off a win on TNF and some extra rest. Denver is coming of a huge 2nd half comeback with a last second score to win a divisional home game as a dog. The Broncos are also 3-1 in their last 4 games, with their only loss to KC. (2-1 of those games came on the road). Atlanta hasn't won a game at home yet this year. My algo has this as a 24-26 ATL. I believe this game has potential to be one by BOTH teams. So, with the clearly better defense and catching more than 4, I think it's a good spot for DEN. Possibly a sprinkle game too! 😉

Chicago/Tennessee: This is the match-up of the pretenders. Two teams that the model is not sure if they are contenders or pretenders. CHI put in Foles when they were 3-0. Now they are 5-2. Their offense has got to find some continuity. Only averaging 20ppg it might be able to find some life vs a TEN defense that is quite suspect. They have made some changes recently and will be starting new pieces. Could be the perfect opportunity for Foles to get some stats on the sheet because TEN d-line has been very weak, rarely sacking opposing QBs this year. They will need every bit of Foles because the Bears run offense has been horrrrrible this year. Let's put it this way, TEN's Derrick Henry outrushes the Bears by himself on a per-game basis.
My algo has this as TEN -1 with a total of 50. Looks like I'll be leaning CHI on the bounce back.
Side note: I've said it before, ill mention it again. There's almost always an upset and it usually comes from the games that are 6/6.5 spread. Books seem to squeeze this in every week somehow to take care of people's teasers. This weeks candidates CHI, JAX, NYJ
Something interesting to note, majority of bets are on TEN yet the line hasn't moved from 6.5 to 7. . .

Detroit at Minnesota: Ehhhh, a very weird one. It has been off the board most of the week because we are not sure if Stafford is going to play. He is under a Covid protocal for close contact. He will be tested daily up until Sunday morning. If he is negative he will most likely play, if he tests positive he will obviously be out.
Outside of the Stafford storyline we have some revenge game stuff. Everson Griffen and AP returning to MIN, and I think MIN has some DET players now.
My algo has this as a Pickem being very game script dependent. I likes whoever gets a lead as it favors their defense to go for more on the pass rush.
I would say that Stafford being in will be the most important news to follow. If he is out I may look for a small teaser on MIN and the Under as I expect them to lean on Cook again. However, if Stafford plays I think this is a great spot to take the Lions and even a sprinkle on the money line.
Again, if Stafford is in I would look to some Lions props as MIN D is still a poopshow. With Galloday out, Look for Hall and Hockenson to get the extra targets. Also, if Stafford plays the Lion's have been coming out FIRE in the first quarter.
Check in the comments Sunday before game time to see who I took based upon the Stafford news.

Baltimore at Indianapolis: Back to back weeks Baltimore in a big AFC matchup. Last week was frustrating not only for us (BAL losing hurt) it was probably extremely frustrating for BAL. They outgained the Steelers nearly 2:1 in yards! They rushed on the Steelers Super AMAzeballs defense for over 250 yards! If not for FOUR very costly turnovers by Lamar, that would have been an ez BAL victory.
This is where it gets weird. When I compare the stats in my algo they are nearly identical and it spits out this game as a Pickem. However, something to note that I have not added in as weight on my algos calculations is strength of opponents. Which on wins, is not much for either team. However, on losses, they do have two common opponents (CLE and CIN). Both of which BAL SMASHED and one of which is INDys losses.(CLE)
Normally I would say this is a BAL all day game and if we see this match up in the playoffs I would most likely (barring some weird injury news) take BAL then. HOWEVER, this has been a weird week for BAL with like 7 defensive players on the COVID protocol list. To go with that, the whole BAL team has been restricted from practicing until SAT. Which means they got SAT practice in an have to travel to play tomorrow.
With all that said, this might be a game to contrary myself. However, with BAL being the more publicly bet team it might be more prudent to wait until closer to game time. Try to catch another +3 with IND or wait to take them at +2.5 in a teaser.

Carolina at Kansas City: CMC is back Baby! Haha. This should be a very interesting one. KC has been on a tear recently winning back to back games by more than 25. Carolina is off a tough primetime divisional loss to ATL last week that basically told you they don't want the last playoff spot.
Surprisingly my algo has this as 30-24 KC.
I am going to have to say this game will be largely dependent on CMCs health, productivity, and if CAR can keep pace or get a lead early. If so, KC does have the fourth-worst run defense in football with teams averaging 142.8 yards per game against them. AND even if they pull a lead, maybe there is some back door potential? CAR has only 1 loss this year by more than 10 points...

Houston at Jacksonville: Oh boy. . . Do you even wanna watch this game? Houston is coming off a bye and has had two weeks to prepare for a rematch against the team that gave them their only win this year. The difference in this game? JAX is starting a new 24 year old QB for his first start. And, they are giving him a defense that has given up at least 30 points in every game except one.
My algo has this as only HOU -4.5. However there is no adjustment in there for the QB change.
I expect JAX to help their fresh starting QB out as much as he can by giving the ball as much as they can to their RB. My algo marks this as a FANTASTIC spot to target Robinson in total yards rush+rec as not only will he have his normal workload against a horrible defense, but he will get the extra work that comes from the coaches trying to simplify the game for their QB.

NYG at Washington: Ugh, another dumpster fire game. NY played on Monday night and barely lost to the TB Bucs. Washington is off a bye. I want little to no part of this game. My algo has WAS as -2.5 but it also had WAS as -1 in the first match up. The NYG defense is on the rise and Danny Dimes seems to come out vs. the Washington Team. If anything, I would say WAS needs it more. They have one of the better chances to win the NFC East if they can pick up this game. (They have an easier back half of the schedule than most of the other teams)

LV at LAC: Sooo, LV is one of my favorite teams this year. I think they are building something real and I expect Gruden to take them deep in the playoffs in the next 3 years. Currently they are still in build mode, especially on defense, but Carr and the offense are starting to find some rhythms. Jacobs doesn't seem to be as good as his rookie year suggested but there's time to draft in that position. They are coming off a rough crap weather grind game vs. the Browns, where they came out the victor.
The Chargers also look like a great team for the future. I think once they get a change at head coach and redevelop their defense, they too could have something. They are coming off a last second comeback loss to the Broncos. Actually, they have been leading in most of their losses, only to give it up in the 4th. Herbert looks like a beast and his timing with Allen appears strong.
My algo has this as LAC -1 and I think this games about as coin flip as you can get. Both have above average offense and below average defense. I think I am going to lean LAC 1Q as they are home and have been coming out strong the last few games. However, if I catch this game live I will look to bet whoever's live spread gets 7+


Pittsburgh at Dallas: Not really feeling this is a game that has much value. PIT could easily blowout dallas 34-6. Dallas is about to start there 23 quarterback. Their D gives up 33+ per game. And oh btw, PIT is 7-0 with wins over the Titans and Ravens.
Why I won't take PIT is mostly the same reasoning. Dallas is starting an unknown at QB. DAL is 2-6 and PIT has a divisional game next week vs an opponent currently on a bye. This is PITs 3rd road game in a row. How much has the travel been wearing on the mental state.
I am just going to avoid this game.


Miami at Arizona: Well well well, looks like that MIA +3.5 play last week was good TUA TIME-ing! Seriously though, TUA did next to nothing in that game. Like almost 0. But that MIA defense.... WHOOO weeeeeeee
Both teams are coming into this game riding a 3 game winning streak. AZ is coming off a bye and has waayyyy the better offense. MIA comes into this game off a big upset vs the LA Rams and has a much better defense.
Again, I dont know if we can trust TUA yet. A home game vs a team traveling 3000 miles to play a 1pm start was tough enough. Now he has to travel across the country for his first road start? On a positive note, he will be playing indoors...
I think ill mostly avoid here.

SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTABALL

New Orleans at Tampa Bay: The matchup of the Day. NO comes into this game riding a 4 game winning streak. However it is important to note that 3 of those wins came against teams with a below .500 record and all 4 of the wins were by less then a TD.
TB comes into this game riding a 3 game win streak but their most recent win was on Monday night (short week) vs the Giants in which it was close all game and NY had a chance to send the game into OT. Not something you want to see. It could be that the team overlooked NY in preparation for this game. Knowing that winning their division is more important than a game vs the Giants.
We should see the debut of Antonio Brown in this one. Currently I have found him at +162 to score a TD and +1200 to score the first TD. Might throw a free bet on one of those just for a fun sweat.

New England at NYJ: Not going to lie, this was going to be my upset of the year. Pats having almost 0 offensive weapons outside of Cams run game. Jets only real strength is stopping the run. Pats D is NOT what we are used to. The amount of missed tackles happing has to make Bellichek SICK. Darnold, at home, with the probably better defense, catching over a TD?!
However, Darnold now appears to be out. I still think NY has good EV to cover, especially with the extra FG, as both teams should struggle to put u any points. However, the upset just feels so much harder as Flacco is VERY low raked in my algo's QB index.

Ski test notes for ~40 pairs of 19/20 skis

Good people of skiing! I submit for your perusal and reference: my notes on the nearly 40 pairs of skis I got to demo last year. I know many folks have made ski purchase decisions already, but for you fence straddlers: maybe my notes can push you over the edge. You may not agree with my notes. For example, I genuinely dislike the Bonafide, which is one of the most popular skis of all time. People like skiing for different reasons. I split my notes into four sections: powder, all-mountain wide, all-mountain narrow, and piste skis. I found exceptional skis in each category. It’s a good year to be a skier.
Notes on Tester: I’m 6’1”, 170 lbs, 34 yo. I get most of my ski days in north Lake Tahoe, Mammoth, and Utah. I work in a small ski shop. My tastes in skis definitely reflects my bias: I like heavy and especially metal skis because they cope better with our beloved Sierra snow. I don’t get as much time on independent ski brands as I would like - something I hope to change. I try to acknowledge my bias while still highlighting the virtues of skis I write about.

Powder Skis (110+ mm waist)

The powder ski! The ski you save for those special days! The ski that keeps you up at night knowing that your body and spirit will transcend time and space through this sacred instrument! Most people associate their powder skis with the best times, and I’ll make the argument that most “quiver of one skis” fall apart when faced with 12”+ of fluff. So do the right thing and consider adding one of these to your lineup!
Blizzard Spur Length: 192 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountains, Snowbasin ~15” powder day The Spur is in a category by itself, which is apparent just by looking at the asymmetrical cut. Insane float, a unique blend of sturdy and surfy. I found it easy and reliable at any speed, though it did have a tendency to get hooked on the heavy pow. In blower, the Spur would be an effortless dream. I found it easier to manage than the Nordica Enforcer Pro and the Dynastar Proto, a little more turn-y and fun than those skis, which excel at charging down gnarly terrain.
Blizzard Rustler 11 Length: 188 and 192 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain, Mammoth January Storm (windblown powder), Alpine Meadows March storm (4” of cream on top of 12” of Sierra cement) The Rustler 11 has been a favorite of mine all season. I went up to the 192 today to push the limits of this very versatile ski. I continue to think that this is the perfect resort powder ski. It enables me to attack everything from fresh lines to tracked pow. It can rip around on groomers getting back to the lift. For a metal ski, it has a fantastic ooey-gooey interface with soft snow. Some testers fault the rustler for lacking snappy response on groomers, and I’ll acknowledge that it does not have the race-bred super G feel that you might find in an Enforcer 110. But I still think it's the best ski in the category. It's versatile and approachable for a ski this wide, and I never lacked float. It's essentially three skis in one: a super fun surfy pow ski, a surprisingly clean and nimble carver, and an end of day or leftover crud buster. I now own this ski.
Armada ARV116 JJ Length: 187 Test Location: Alpine Meadows, what looked to be a powder day turned into cement with 2” of cream on top. I was excited to take out this legendary ski for the first time, knowing that it would be a different beast altogether from other skis in the category. I was thrilled with the experience, and felt that the JJ provides a unique surfy / smeary experience that I absolutely loved. I would love to get it out in deeper snow sometime, where those qualities would really shine. Still, I was pleased and impressed with how the ski did while cruising groomers back to the lift. This ski skis a little short - would have liked to try the 192 (and I’m 6’1” // 170 lbs).
Armada Tracer 118 Length: 188 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain I was impressed by how much this ski liked speed. I think it makes great sense as a hybrid resort / backcountry ski for the skier who likes speed. It floats great, but I found it a little sloppy on edge hold, at least in heavy (wet) Sierra pow. May have been the conditions, but other skis were handling better. I loved the graphics. I would give it another shot on different snow.
Armada Declivity X Length: 192 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain Surprise hit for me. I thought it would be a big mountain high speed tool, but found it to be surprisingly accessible and versatile. Close call with the Rustler 11, these were my two favorite resort powder skis. At 115mm waist, a wonderful dedicated powder ski. I look forward to riding it again sometime.
Armada ARG 133 Length: 187 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain This was a huge treat to test, and I think I kept it out longer than any other ski in the somewhat epic blizzard conditions at Mammoth. Like the Blizzard Spur, this is a purpose-built ski. And that purpose is spraying face shots all over the mountain. I found the ARG to be great at short cuts and yet still stable when I pointed them out. Of the pure powder skis, this was my favorite.
Nordica Enforcer Pro Length: 191 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain I've been a huge fan of the enforcer line for some time, but never got to try the pro / 115. It feels like an enforcer for sure. It's a big ski for sure. I would love to take this ski to Alaska. I love that it can mow down chop. It certainly rails on groomers. But...I'm not sure this ski really makes sense for people who aren't pro skiers. Although it's fun on groomers, it's not much more fun than other powder skis, and it's more of a chore in tight spots. I think I learned something about how Enforcers win a lot of awards: the skis nail a lot of the evaluation criteria. But that doesn't always translate to fun. And in the case of a powder ski, railing groomers is beside the point.
Dynastar Proto Length: 189 Test Location: Mammoth WWSRA Demo Days I tested this ski right next to the Enforcer Pro, and overall I preferred it as a powder ski. They are both high speed float masters, and I suspect they both will be most at home charging steep lines where you need to point'em out. I found the Proto to be a little planky, but nevertheless it was surprisingly agile and nimble. I found myself hopping turns more than slarving or smearing, but I still charged down the hill with confidence, even in tight corners. The Proto got my vote for a high speed pow ski, but the Rustler 11 and the Declivity were more accessible and well rounded.
Salomon QST 118 Length: 192 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days I enjoyed the QST 118, and I wouldn't have a hard time selling it. It carves nicely. It floats beautifully. Lots of rocker, decently stiff tail. I could imagine falling in love when skiing it in heroic conditions, but I could say the same about a lot of skis.
Head Kore 117 Length: 188 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days The 117 feels like the most different ski in the Kore lineup. With almost no camber, this ski is buttery and quick at lower speeds or in deeper snow. The ski felt a little less grippy and solid as compared to other Kores, or even other skis in this category, which makes a lot of sense for this ski. In the end, I like this ski a lot for somebody who wants a pivoty pow ski that can handle a little speed, but not too much. As with other Kore skis, I’ll continue my complaint that they are in fact too light. Utah skiers may disagree.
Atomic Bent Chetler 120 Length: 192 Test Location: 2+ foot dump at Mammoth Mountain, storm day with high winds Having previously tried (and disliked) the Bent Chetler 100, I wasn’t sure how I would like the 120. It turns out to be a much better shape and size for this style of playful, surfy construction. I struggled a bit with the forward stance, though that can probably be blamed on the heavier Sierra snow I skied that day. Floatation is obviously in a league of its own, and for the skier who has the good fortune to score deep powder, the Bent Chetler is the perfect surfy, playful feel that encapsulates the carefree fun of skiing in powder. For me personally, I still need my powder ski to hold up for afternoon leftovers, and I felt the 120 was a little too light for that. I do love the idea of using this as a touring setup, where fresh powder is almost endless. Makes a great all-purpose powder ski if you don’t want to fly with a downhill and backcountry setup when you fly to Japan.
Fishcer Ranger 115 Fr Length: 188 Test Location: 2+ foot dump at Alpine Meadows Hats off to Fischer for their Fr lineup. They managed to marry the crisp, round carve of their race lineage with a ski that surfs, slashes, and pivots. I really enjoyed the 115, and have wondered if maybe I would have preferred it over my very beloved Rustler 11. I plan to revisit this ski again.

All-Mountain Wide (99-109 mm waist)

Probably the most versatile category for folks in the North American West. I like all-mountain wide skis a lot because you can pretty much grab one without looking at the forecast - or knowing what terrain you will end up riding - and still have a great time. These skis have to balance fun and float with precision and power. A tall order - but there are a ton of fantastic options this year.
Nordica Enforcer 104 Free Length: 185 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain, Snowbasin Demo Days Fantastic, accessible, carves and smears. Exactly what Nordica needed to add. Enough float for any Sierra powder day. Abundant fun factor. I tried it both at Mammoth, where it was fun and smeary, and at Snowbasin, where it transitioned between fluffy stashes and dusty but firm groomers with ease. A+ ski. If I could only own one ski next year, this would be it. Highly recommend for the energetic, confident skier who wants one ski that does it all.
Salomon QST 106 Length: 188 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain This ski surprised me. It immediately made me feel like I was one with the snow. The balance felt perfect from the first turn. It was easy to get on edge and its carving accuracy was fantastic. I skied it in the 188, and was surprised how easy it was. I would guess that intermediate skiers would enjoy this ski a lot. That being said, I skied with some expert skiers at Snowbasin who were ripping on the 106 without a problem. Considering conditions, I thought it was wonderful for the heavier pow.
Dynastar Legend 106 Length: 188 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain Although by no means a bad ski, the Legend 106 did not stand out in its category, which is filled with a lot of compelling options. I found it to be more fun and forgiving than I expected, but I was really thrown by the tail, which felt loose and wiggly in the soft stuff. I probably would love this ski on firm snow and high speeds, and I might reach for this for more expert skiers, but I had more fun on the Salomon QST 106 and the Nordica Enforcer 104. I thought I would have preferred the Legend, which has a remarkably stiff hand flex. But the swimmy tail was very unusual and did not excite me.
Salomon QST 99 Length: 181 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain Overall I liked this ski and I think it will sell very well. At 99 mm, there were better skis for the blizzard conditions. Nevertheless I found the QST to provide adequate float. It was fun and easy to ski, and would be very accessible for intermediate skiers. It didn't grab on to the heavy and somewhat wet snow. It also got knocked around a bit. But a lot of users will love this ski as an all mountain daily driver that has plenty of fun and forgiveness.
Blizzard Rustler 10 Length: 180 and 188 Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain, Deer Valley (most firm snow, some dust on crust) I’m a huge fan of Rustlers, and I like the direction of this new, more stable, more confident ski. Still totally fun in trees and deep stashes. I skied with a friend who rode an Atomic Vantage 97 Ti - a much more firm snow oriented ski - and I had no trouble keeping up once we opened up onto groomers. I loved this ski. I took it out again for a sunny day at Deer Valley and I continue to be impressed with its firm and soft snow handling. I struggled a bit in the rutted and firm bumps off piste, which were crust underneath a 3" dash of dust. I'm glad I got that exposure but I still love this ski and would consider it an excellent quiver of one choice. The 188 is probably my ski, but I felt pretty stable in the 180 as well. If I’m being really honest, I would love it in a 185 cm length.
Fischer Ranger 102 FR Length: 177 and 184 cm Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days The 102 is a fun ski that almost anybody can hop on and enjoy. I found its floatation and playfulness to be excellent. It was delightful on a wonderful steep pitch of mostly untracked pow. I cruised onto some mellow packed powder groomers and found it incredibly easy to get on edge and carve nice arcs. The ski produces a remarkably round carve shape which was novel and fun, if not overpowering. The ski got a little lost in some tracked off-piste lower down the mountain, which makes me worry about how it would hold up in heavier Sierra snow. Given its ease of use, I would enthusiastically recommend it to a skier who wants a well rounded all mountain ski that doesn't punish them. To contrast it with the Ranger 99 Ti, this ski was more fun and approachable, and I felt it did great in powder.
Head Kore 105 Length: 180 cm Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days The Kore series has done well for Head, and has helped a lot of skiers get into a freeride oriented ski that allows them to shred without draining their fitness. I like the 105 a lot, and I think the ultralight construction makes a ton of sense for a ski that ought to be more soft snow oriented. Yes, it still rails on groomers. Yes, it is disturbingly stable at speed for its weight. And it's rather dreamy in powder. My only complaint against this ski is that I wish it had more heft to charge through crud and even tracked pow. Many skiers will naturally gravitate toward is lightweight and highlight this aspect as a strength, so I file this critique as a minor one. I do give Head props for adapting each Kore mold to the demands of that model, and the 105 feels like a virtuous fulfillment of this category's most sought after features. I would vote for an Enforcer 104 free or a QST 106 as close competition for this ski. And the Ranger 107ti for the more expert, charge-y skier. One slight ding on this ski: the lack of a mounting plate seems to produce higher than normal binding failures. I’m not sure if Head has addressed this, but other ultra lightweight skis (old DPS) have needed to similar tweaks. Consider a helicoil.
Fischer Ranger 107 Ti Length: 182 cm Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days When I learned about the updates to the Ranger Ti series, I was immediately stoked and excited to ski them. Long a fan of the Ranger series, my only complaint on recent experiences was that I wanted more power out of the ski. Be careful what you wish for. The Ti is a beastly ski. I love its powerful carving. I love how stable it is in crud. And when I got the ski in untracked Utah pow, it floated like a butterfly, only to shred groomers just a few turns later with that deliciously precise Fischer continuous carve. All that said, this is a demanding ski, best for athletic skiers. I would struggle in tight bumps or rutted tree lines. I still love the ski...but maybe it could ease up a bit? Sincerely, Goldilocks
Fischer Ranger 99 Ti Length: 181 and 188 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days, Alpine Meadows spring powder day I expounded on the Ranger Ti series in the 107 Ti review. The 99 is perhaps the ski that took it too far, at least for me on the 188 length. It's a fantastic carving tool. It has no discernible speed limit. It punished me in the bumps. It’s labor-intensive off piste. It's a beastly ski for sure, and those really strong demanding high speed skiers are going to love it. I think it still skis circles around the Mantra M5 in basically every category. But I will be thoughtful about which customers get to look at the 99. On a later trip, I grabbed a 181 and felt much more at home on that length ski. I still found the ski to be a little planky for my 170 lbs while skiing through some end-of-day pow at Alpine Meadows. It was phenomenal on groomers, and thus I find it to be an interesting ski for a quiver-of-one skier. Realistically, many skiers spend most of their time on groomers, but don’t want to be left out in the cold if the powder comes. For an all-mountain skier who wants one ski that is high performance on piste but still fun in powder, the 99 Ti could work nicely, but only if that skier has fitness and technique in spades.
Volkl Mantra 102 Length: 184 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days If you read my Enforcer 88 review, you might expect me to dismiss the Mantra 102 as another business-driven product line extension from the smash success of this year's Mantra M5. Credit where it's due: the Mantra 102 is not only new and different - it's better. While the M5 clearly excels as a high speed, long radius, directional charger, the 102 is in fact a much more versatile ski, while still maintaining its charger pedigree. The triple radius sidecut - while not an altogether new innovation - does make this ski feel more maneuverable in tight spots. It's accordingly more floaty and fun, and more smooth than my memory of the M5. I really liked this ski, but the competition (Enforcer 104, 102) are also really great skis. I think the Mantra 102 will find its niche as a more versatile and therefore broader appeal Mantra.
Armada ARV106 Length: 188 Test Location: Alpine Meadows surprise spring powder day I tested this ski out of step with the rest of the all mountain wide testing I did, so it’s harder for me to do apples-to-apples. I’ll start by saying that I generally prefer metal in my skis, and the list of all-wood skis that I actually like is pretty short. Well, the ARV 106 is definitely on there, and may actually mark a turning point in my attitude toward a) wood core skis positioned for soft snow and b) more forward stance mount. I took the ski up to Alpine Meadows and cut some afternoon stash laps on Alpine Bowl Chair. We were hiking Upper Saddle to High Yellow Face and Our Father, and the ARV was super fun. I found it to be a good combination of floaty and nimble. It was still perfectly capable as I hit higher speeds on the runout. The competition in all mountain wide is definitely challenging, but I think the ARV 106 stands out for giving a little more feedback and connection with softer snow. Like many of the all-mountain wide skis, this ski was still plenty of fun on groomers, so despite its width and lack of metal, it certainly would hold up for most western skiers.

All-Mountain Narrow (88-98 mm waist skis)

An interesting category of skis. Some folks are going to like these skis as a potential quiver of one, particularly if you don’t actively seek fresh tracks. I generally feel like too many skiers, especially young skiers, overlook frontside skis. It is their loss. These skis are quicker, rippier, and more exciting, and they can make boilerplate groomers feel like your own personal race track. It’s worth trying one of these if you haven’t been on a narrower ski in a while.
Atomic Vantage 97 Ti length: 180 cm Test Location: Heavy sierra powder day at Mammoth Mountain The snow was turning increasingly wet by the time I took out the Vantage Ti. Not the right conditions for this ski, but I needed to try it out so I could differentiate from the Mantra M5. I liked it. Seems to be more versatile than the M5. Still charges. It’s an interesting build: at 97mm waist, I’m kind of scratching my head. Is this really a powder ski? If not, why would you want a ski this wide? I suppose that the extra width comes in handy when plowing throw crud, chop, and rutted snow, but that firm and flat tail is a lot to handle in off piste conditions. My personal feeling is that once you cross the 90mm line, at least some tail early rise is pretty essential. That being said, one of my favorite skis is the Stockli Stormrider 95, which has a firm if not punishing tail, and to this ski’s credit, it compares favorably to the Stockli and costs much less. I think that the Vantage style makes way more sense in the 86 and 90 models. Long way of saying: if you are a quiver-of-one skier who specifically doesn’t seek out off piste powder but still wants to ski on piste in variable conditions, this could be a great one for you.
Stockli Stormrider 88 Length: 177 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days I owned a previous generation of the 88 and I loved it. I always found myself slightly between sizes. The 177 was more accessible and quick. The 186 was a point down hill, count 5 seconds, and then turn sort of ski. And the tears streaming backward out of my eyes were 50% joy and 50% fear. The new 177 feels like it gives me both worlds, and even at 6'1", I feel right at home on this ski. Unshakable confidence across all snow types. Crisp, clean turning. The 88 is the gateway drug to edgy and more aggressive narrow skis...but it's a perfectly satisfying end state as well. For my California customer, I don't think it quite works as a one ski quiver, unless one deliberately plans to avoid deeper days. It’s too narrow to be a powder ski. But my goodness, this ski is smoother than a Lindt truffle and sharper than a Victorinox chef's knife. I was testing a host of ~88 mm skis and I almost felt bad because I took this ski out as a baseline. It's hard for any other ski to measure up. I’ll stop short of calling it a one ski quiver, and in the case of this ski, I think that’s a great thing: it’s so powerful and confident on piste while still being manageable in tighter off piste runs.
Volkl Kendo 88 Length: 177 and 184 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days I tested this ski in a 177 and 184, and I just couldn't find the sweet spot. It's powerful. It's edgy. It floats adequately and doesn't hook too badly. The 3D radius sidecut is novel and discernible, enabling different turn lengths. All that said, I found both models to shudder on hard pack. The 184 was a plank for me, and I was more than happy to trade it in for the 177. I would enjoy it in perfect corduroy, but I found the ski to be buzzy and stiff.
Blizzard Brahma 88 Length: 180 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days The Brahma was a surprise ski for me. I like metal skis a lot, but hand-flexing this ski, plus negative experiences with the Bonafide, led me to think I would not enjoy the Brahma. I was wrong. It was a wonderfully precise carver. It navigated day-old pow with ease and aplomb. It was very comfortable at speed. Given that flat tail, I think it is a compelling option for the charger who knows how to finish a turn but still wants to hit some off-piste runs...but not too many. It does demand an athletic user, and folks who don't know they want metal will more likely be at home on other, more forgiving skis.
Salomon QST 92 Length: 177 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days I've enjoyed every 19/20 QST. They are all fun, accessible, smooth, and reasonably precise and stable. From my experience, they ski more similar than different, at least in the models from 92 to 106. The 92 was only available in a 177, and I would have grabbed the next size up if it were available. It ended up not mattering. I was able to draw long and short carves with surprising ease. I did not take this ski up to high speed, but it seemed perfectly stable given the test scenario. The great thing about the QSTs, and the 92 in particular, is how easy the are to ski. That said, even aggressive skiers seem to like them. I'm going long on Salomon for next year. I would still choose the next size up (184?) for me in this model, but the fact that I could enjoy the 177 means that Salomon has succeeded in creating an amazingly broad sweet spot for the QST line.
Nordica Enforcer 93 Length: 185 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days One of my old and dear friends. I still love this ski more than just about any other ski in the category. As great as the Kore 93 is, the Enforcer offers that much more stability and confidence, especially when the going gets weird. It's also a better carving tool. Sure, you need to have the fitness to bend this ski, but it will reward you with the ability to drive through chop. It really stood out to me as the best Enforcer, save maybe the new 104. Or possibly the 110, if one has the good fortune to ski that ski in the right conditions. But the 93 is a very tempting option for the Tahoe one ski quiver. We took a winding road from Snowbasin's gondola, and I ended up doing figure 8s behind a ski patroller on a much narrower ski...until I accelerated past him. Love this ski, and was glad I took the time to ski it again.
Nordica Enforcer 88 Length: 179 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days Admittedly, I was skeptical about this ski. The 93 was already such a smooth and crisp carver, I anticipated that the 88 was less of a ski design innovation and more of a product line extension. I hate when I let my prejudice get the better of me, but I came away with a similar impression after skiing. I didn't find myself enjoying turns any more on this ski...in some ways, I missed the 93. Maybe the Enforcer 88 can steal some market from the Brahma. Maybe there are some folks with bum knees who won't go for the 93. But it just didn't thrill me as a new offering. Still thought it was a smooth, polished, and enjoyable ski. Just not a thrillingly new or different ski. The reps (and some reviewers) tout the comparatively stiff tail. I’m a good carver, but I didn’t really notice it as a benefit over the 93, which is my pick purely for versatility. All that being said, the fact that Enforcers have won so many magazine awards and sold so many units, my guess is that there are a bunch of folks who have been holding out for a narrower ski, and I bet they will jump on this one.
Armada Invictus 89 Ti Length: 179 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days Woo hoo! The Invictus had me hooting and hollering, even as I grabbed it at the tail end of two full days of ski testing. Really fast, smooth, confident ski. I felt like the whole mountain was my carving playground. My colleague loves his Invictus and so I had to give it a shot - think this would be a great ski for somebody who rips but still wants the freedom to play. It has the confidence at speed that you get from the Brahma 88 and Kendo 88, but it was so much more FUN on the mountain. For me, it was a shockingly close second to the Stormrider 88.
Elan Ripstick 96 Black - 184 Length: 184 Test Location: Snowbasin Demo Days A premium ski in a relatively attainable price. Elan’s whole Ripstick line uses asymmetrical sidecut that increases edge hold on inside edges while easing up on the outsides. Translation: more power where you need it, while enabling you to smear off a little speed when the going gets dicey. I skied the 96 after ripping around almost all day on ~90mm skis, and found it to be very responsive for a comparatively wider ski. I’m still partial to skis with metal, but for somebody who likes the lightness of carbon, I think the Black edition - which adds an extra layer of carbon and thus an extra “top gear” for high speed charging - is a really appealing ski.
Armada ARV 96 Ti Length: 184 Test Location: Deer Valley, Squaw Valley sleeper spring powder day Excellent ski. One of the first skis I loved riding in a more centered stance. Relaxed and confident, and spectacular carving and edge hold for a twin tip, somewhat new school shaped ski. In fact, those adjectives feel wrong for this model. I enjoyed a bonus day on this ski ripping around Squaw Valley with Mike LaRoche. I had mistakenly predicted more groomer action, but Mike showed me all the powder stashes, often times a foot or more of chalky but light pow. The 96 did shockingly well given even in the deeper snow, and was an animal on the prepared piste. I will probably add this to the quiver...once I find the funds.
Armada Tracer 98 Length: 180 Test Location: Deer Valley Easy, smooth, a close cousin to the Salmon QST 99, but perhaps not quite as damp. Armada has trimmed some weight here, clearly shooting for the touring market. My favorite top sheet of the year. It’s worth noting that in addition to being a fairly light ski, Armada built the Tracer to have more mass concentrated under foot, which makes touring more efficient.
Stockli Stormrider 95 - 177 O Stormrider 95. How I love thee. Let me count the ways. You are the most stable and eerily quiet ski on snow. You take any turn shape with ease. You glide through chop like a maglev train. You'll take me as fast as I want to go and still let me scrub speed if I get into trouble. Your edges slice into snow of all types, from corduroy to graupel to death cookies to boilerplate. You charge through crud better than the likes of the Mantra or the Bonafide, but you still let me feel the texture of snow. I hate most expensive things, but you make me question all that. Call me.

On-Piste / Groomer Skis (<88 mm waist or groomer specific construction)

Stockli Laser AX Length: 175 Test Location: Deer Valley, Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadows This is one of my favorite skis in the world. It’s a firm snow ski, and is rather not much fun in tight, firm bumps and similar terrain. Having spent years on skis north of 100mm, stepping onto the Laser AX’s 78 felt like I had been given the keys to an Italian sports car after schlubbing around in SUVs. Lightning quick edge-to-edge. Disturbingly stable at any speed. Edge hold that bends space-time. All of that, while still being fun to ski, whereas most other race-inspired skis will absolutely punish you if you don’t manage them. I own this ski and I pretty much will beg you to get out and try one for yourself. It will change how you feel about skiing.
Stöckli Laser AR Length: 177 Test Location: Deer Valley A new Laser! Hooray! This is a great new offering. It's interesting how Stöckli skis always have a lot of common characteristics. They are smooth. They have superb edge hold. They beg you (and sometimes taunt you) to open up the throttle. So what does the AR bring that's new? Stöckli has apparently positioned it as the least firm snow specific Laser. Softer tail for sure. I found it be more user-friendly even than the AX, which I praise for its user-friendliness. The AR is more forgiving, which I was pleased to find when I bombed through a narrow gulley and urgently needed to scrub speed on the snowy edges while turning through the icy trough. It's not quite as crisp as the AX, nor is it the speed-hungry powerhouse that the Stormrider 88 is. But it is more than capable in those departments, and it won't make you pay the price for getting a little loose. I think this translates into a very appealing package for the advanced-but-not-quite expert skier. I would enthusiastically sell it to anybody who wants a consummate carving tool and has the pocketbook to buy it.
Atomic Vantage 90 Ti Length: 177 Test Location: Deer Valley Great ski. Fast, precise, and exciting. And a reasonably great price. This ski tempts you to higher speed. One of my favorite runs of the day, and when I turned around, my fiancé was hot on my tails riding the same ski. She later told me: “I could have passed you if I wanted to.” It was awesome seeing her rip up the mountain. The Vantage 90 Ti prefers firm snow obviously, and I deliberately left it out of the all-mountain narrow category in my review because of it’s shape. I liked it much better than the Kendo 88.
Atomic Vantage 86 Ti Length: 181 Test Location: Deer Valley A very close cousin to the 90 Ti. I marginally preferred the 90, but I could attribute that to deteriorating conditions (or legs). Clean, precise, quick. Very fun.

Superbowl Prop Bets Sheet

Is anyone familiar with the prop bets sheets that is made for superbowl parties? I believe it has a QR code on the bottom of it that gives live updates to bets. Me and my friends always have fun completing these and am just wondering why I can find the version for this year.
Here is an example of what I am referring to from a previous super bowl: http://i.imgur.com/kgARdNr.jpg

What are the best ways you've seen couples incorporate charitable donations into their event?

I would really like to incorporate some type of charitable donation to our wedding in a fun way to remind ourselves and guests of something greater than ourselves during a time where it's easy to become consumed in the stress and financial commitment focused on a single day.
One way I've seen this done is by donating "Dollar Dance" money where guests pay to dance with the bride. This may be a midwest concept and I'm not a huge fan since it can take up a significant amount of the bride's time that could be spent dancing with her fiance, larger group, etc.
Another simple version I've seen is setting two jars next to the wedding cake and having guests "donate" to select who should get a face full of cake by labeling each jar Bride or Groom.
Okay, here's where I could use some opinions - My grand idea is to come up with a prop bet sheet which could entertain guests and serve as a donation to participate. My fiance and I love to partake in these during the Super Bowl and other sporting events so I could see it being something guests would enjoy as being light-hearted and keep their attention throughout the night since they'd need to keep an eye out for particular details to complete their sheet.
Examples would be things like: - Will the bride wear a veil? - Will the bride/groom cry at the ceremony? - Will the best man's speech be oveunder 3 minutes?
There are several things I could see going wrong here or details that would need worked out since this is a different concept. 1. Will guests be too distracted by filling out their sheets to fully engage in the event (particularly during the ceremony) or will it make them focus more? 2. What would the best timing be to explain the concept and ask for donations? It seems like the ceremony has the most moments that could be added to the sheet but I don't want guests to be turned off by the idea of asking for money before they've even sat down or seen the bride and groom for them to explain the fun.
Should I go down the road of sifting through the details of the "betting" idea or just keep it simple with something more discreet like the cake jars and focus my efforts elsewhere?

Anybody know a good app for tracking prop bets?

I'm hosting a super bowl party and would love to have friends fill out a prop bet sheet as they come in. A no money involved, just for fun situation. Does anybody know of a good app to track what people enter and easily establish a winner at the end of the night? If the app automatically determines the winner, that would be awesome. Otherwise, I could do it as an admin / host.

Questions Answers
It on your face? Is it painful? Is yours a very severe case? My case is severe, the dermatologist actually photographed my legs and arms to use in a journal for severity. However, that is also based on perspective, it's not on my face, that would be exponentially worse. Psoriasis isn't painful if you look after it. However, if you don't moisturize your skin they become cracked and inflamed. It almost feels like paper cuts all over them, like my skin is on fire. There is some days where the pain is bad that I just hate everything. My case is severe, a dermatologist took a picture of my arms and legs to actually use in a journal and put into textbooks. I am literally the picture of Psoriasis.
What treatments are there? There is no cure for Psoriasis, however there are tons of treatments like injections, creams, UV light treatments, skin wraps and some work for other people but there is not one standard treament. After years of trying, I have given up. I just use trusty old Vaseline to keep my skin hydrated.
Have you tried biologicals/injections like Link to en.wikipedia.org or something like that? No! Thanks for the link, I will look into it!
Maybe. I'd just like to share what my father told us before we started school: Because you're different, people will say things that are hurtful. This is not necessarily a bad thing, because it will give you the advantage of knowing exactly what type of person you're dealing with. Exactly, I've met some amazingly kind people and some awful awful people. I can't count the times on my hand that kids have tried to hurt me with it. In grade 6 they came up with an entire story of how one kids aunt died from Psoriasis and how it will kill me and such. It was heartbreaking!
Does yours ever bleed? They bleed all of the time, I live in a dry climate too, so my skin dries out horribly. It sucks because my sheets have these awful blood spots because they can break open at night.
What have you tried? I've tried almost everything under the sun that my dermatologist recommended (steroid creams, UV treatment). One day she recommended that I use this drug that they use to treat cancer patients and I drew the line at that. After years of doing it, I just gave up, I'd rather live naturally then die from cancer when I'm 50.
Are some parts covered worse than others? One thing you should try however, is vaseline on your ears after a shower. I find that it helps keep the moisture in there and really helps. Seriously, vaseline, its the most effective and it stopped mine from becoming dry and inflamed.
Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely get me some vaseline then. It's just getting ridiculously irritating and gross.. it bleeds and gets wet and icky and then I wake up with my hair plastered into it because it's crusted over when I was sleeping. It's one sexy skin condition we have! Vaseline will be a game changer for you, I promise. Just remember, shower first, then apply it.
Another quick question if I may.. does anyone else in your family have it? I know my cousin has it and I think my mother suffered too. I was just wondering if yours was in the family too. I can trace Psoriasis back generations, my father has it, his mother has it, her dad had it... It sucks. But the good news is that that whole side of the family has longevity in it, they usually live to around 90 or 100.
What treatment(s) are you using? What has been most and least effective for you? I've done everything under the sun, but as I said before, I was tired of being a lab rat. Every dermatologist would look like they stumbled across a gold mine and recommend recent studies to try.
I just didn't want to go through it anymore.
Honestly, the most effective treatment has been showering then applying Vaseline to keep my skin moisturized. It is the best and it cuts the pain down that is caused by dryness to nothing.
You may have it bad, but you don't have it as bad as my cousin's best friend. That's horrifying... I don't have it that bad for sure.
I went bowling once with her, my cousin, and another cousin, and people were staring at her like she was the ugliest person in the world. I wanted to kick so much ass that day. Poor girl, honestly, that is one of my biggest fears. How does she cope with it? Does she have a stronger personality or crushing social anxieties?
Another male with psoriasis here, although it's mostly on my chest and back. Do you have bad joint pain? Sometimes, oddly enough if I cut myself badly Psoriasis will take over that spot eventually!
Psobro!!! I have psoriasis and I had(have?) it fucking bad on my scalp when I was in high school so through some stroke of wisdom by parents decided I should shave my head all through high school to let it "breathe". Terrible fucking times were had. Oh my, I bet you could tell some stories that could help people get through even their most awful days.
I had never seen anyone with this condition before a few minutes ago. I am always wary of asking people about things like this. If I met you in public, would you be offended if I (not knowing anything about anything) asked you what was wrong with you skin? Also, I think some of the apprehension people may feel could come from fears of contamination. Perhaps if you told people you weren't contagious, they would be more at ease. However, I have no clue really. Do you have 'outbreaks'? Does the psoriasis come and go? I don't mind if people ask in a nice way... if they ask out of spite, like I don't deserve to leave my house or if they have a disgusted tone in their voice then it gets pretty hurtful. Psoriasis stays day in and day out, so no outbreaks, just always there. People do usually get better once you tell them its not contagious, but I know I can never have a job in the food industry.
Have you been checked for coeliac? or any other kind of digestive issue? Also, see PM. No, I will for sure look into it!
I feel your pain, I have atypical contact dermatitis, coupled with dyshidrotic eczema and an overactive immune system. Generally once a month i get all the fun of recovering from second degree burns to my hands, arms, legs and belly, without the fun of actually being burned. recovery time is about 3-4 weeks, at which point I get a few days of clear, non-embarrassing skin before the cycle repeats. The steroids are no longer effective, so they're thinking of starting me on immunosuppressants. The best part? I work as a medical professional. There's nothing like having your patient ask if someone else can treat you, but not wanting to explain why. How many times a week do you have to sweep/vacuum your bedroom? I just vacuum the once a week! Yours sounds so much worse. Sometimes I hate skin, Doves skin slogan where they describe how our skin protects us infuriates me!
I sympathize entirely! Thanks for the AMA! Stay strong and moisturized! lol. I would upvote this comment more if I could! thanks!
I have an older brother who suffers from this. He has it on his face and scalp. I understand how devastating it can be, as he faced much bullying growing up with it. It was early on in life are we had heard that a kid was losing his hair in my class from the stress that he lost his parents in a car crash that I realized everyone has their own cross to bear in the world that I started to feel better about mine. Once I was able to own the fact that I had the skin condition and start living the way I wanted to I found that friends just came to me. People are attracted to confidence, if the bully is offering them a chance to feel safe they will take it. If you legitimately try not to cut yourself off from everyone and just be honest with anyone who asks it will make it a lot better for you in the end.
Were you a victim of bullying too? If so, how did you deal with it? I think with anything in life you have to own your condition.
I have severe eczema which is not the same thing but is also ugly and painful. I'm sorry you have to deal with this dear, mine is so sensitive that washing my hands with regular soap will cause my hands to rash out, crack and bleed. I hate it when I get it on my face. What bathing/moisturizing products do you/can you use? Thanks! Just regular old Vaseline after a shower, which is embarrassing to explain to friends and girlfriends when we hangout in my room!
Do you hate it when strangers ask? That sucks that you have to live with this. You're no less of an awesome human being regardless though. Thanks for posting this. I'm sure there are more than a few people out there who can relate. I hated it when people first started asking me about it, especially strangers because as a person you just want to be normal so badly. I don't mind anymore though, I find that when you lie about what it is, or try to minimize it from people you just make the problem worse for not only them, but yourself. I find now that when I give them a really enthusiastic answer about what it is and how its not contagious people respond much better to me as a person. However, you can tell the difference between when someone is asking out of fear that its contagious and when they are asking solely because they're curious. If its for fear of it being contagious, it's still hard to deal with sometimes because it still feels like they think you're a pile of garbage that shouldn't ever leave your own house. If it's because they're curious I become totally helpful and understand completely!
Thanks for answering this. I'm curious about everything in life and I find it hard not to be ridiculously social in meeting random strangers. Is there a cure at all? Also, rice or noodles? No problem! It took me overcoming my psoriasis to become a social person myself. I actually forced myself to start taking drama and debate as my options in school so I would actually have to face people. There is no cure, but as you can probably see from the thread, everyone and their grandma has a remedy or a drug to recommend. It's actually kind of super cool to think about, because its true that it is an autoimmune disease then everyones body has to fight it off differently. That's kind of neat. I am an noodles man through and through, although jasmine coconut rice is fantastic!
Great answer. Are there any foods you have to avoid eating? (hopefully not noodles or jasmine coconut rice). Jasmine rice is da bomb. Apparently there is a ton that I should avoid eating... but I would find that harder then living with psoriasis I think. I could never give up carbs which from this thread today I guess is the biggest one!
How bad is it medically? Like do you have side effects, do you suffer a decreased quality of life (not socially), certain medications, etc... I always compare it to having paper cuts. Paper cuts aren't that bad on their own, but its the constant pain and burning that kills you after a while. It's most definitely a decrease in the quality of life because it brings you down emotionally and physically.
I am considering maybe not having kids for fear of passing it on to them.
Do you ever pick at it? I just got the strongest urge to rake my fingers across your leg. I have skin picking issues. Yes, yes I do. I unfortunately would also experience the wonders that is a skin infection, which let me tell you, is not fun at all. It makes you feel awful and takes your GP months to figure out what's wrong with you.
Were you born with what it is like now? Or does it kind of grow over your years? It grows over the years! I was completely normal and awesome till I was 10 years old. It started slowly on my knee and eventually spread all over my arms and legs.
I've had a pretty severe case of seborrheic dermatitis all my life, not anything as bad as yours, so much respect for your positive attitude. As someone who has seen many doctors and done endless research on my own to no avail I feel like there has been very little progress on most skin conditions, only the occassional balm or steroid that is for example 30% efficacious on 40% of sufferers. I imagine with the severity of your case you've had a similar experience, so why do you think there has been so little progress not only on surface treatments but on targeting the causes, whatever they may be? Only 5% of the worlds population has psoriasis. I think the money just isn't there for big Pharma. But if I ever won the lottery, you can bet I would invest a ton of my winnings in a research study.
Have you ever tried the baths in budapest? Never! Budapest is so far!
Not sure why i was downvoted, lol but anyhow the public baths in budapest are known for being great at treating psoriasis Link to www.hotel-palazzo-zichy.hu. Thanks Buddha! haha, I will look into it, don't know if traveling is in the direct future though!
Man that's twice the size of my spots in your picture. I really wanted to make this day a good one because the sun is shining after a weekend with thunderstorm and hail so i decided to listen to some ska music and lurk through reddit. And right now i am laughing and crying at the same time. Thank you for being frank with us. You covered a lot of my questions that might help me deal better with my psoriasis. Might be sad on the one side but internet keeps you alive ;) Edit: Oh one question (might read over that). When people ask me what stuff I have in my face they often tell me that they got "neurodermitis too" after a lengthy explanation. Any similar experience? Oh yeah! I think because psoriasis doesn't look like just one type of illness that people can't really easily identify it. So when you explain that its not contagious and its just psoriasis I think people will try to relate to it in anyway that they can. A lot of the times I will tell someone and they will be like "yeah, I excema too!" and I just laugh. But it makes me happy, because it shows me the better parts of human beings and them wanting to show you acceptance. Once I got over the fact that I had it and came to terms with it, my life got so much better. I literally love the summer because I am brave enough to wear short sleeved shirts.
I also have psoriasis, so I understand exactly what you mean. However, I only have it on my eyelids, and have found a cream by clinique that really helped. Have you found any medications help? No, I just use Vaseline! But I can see that wouldn't work for your eyelids. However, I do know that demonologists can recommend a steroid cream that could clear up your eyelids. They didn't work for me because I think there was too much on my legs and arms, but I know that the cream cleared up my ears and nose like nobodies business!
Ever tried a paleo diet? No, I live with my family still when I'm not on the road, so any kind of diet that they don't want to be apart of is kind of out of the question and when you're on the road eating anything but junk food is tough unless the other guys are willing to try harder to find better food.
I have tried thousands and thousands of creams, but I started using cliniques: all about eyes, and have never looked back. I still have some scarring on my eyelids, but they are mostly healed and no one would notice unless I mentioned it :) Hmmm! Clinique is going on the list!
Surely they will try to help if they can right? THEY don't have to eat it. You do. Yeah! It's no excuse! I will make the change!
I used to run a tanning salon, I had some clients that tanned to manage their psoriasis, have you tried that? Haha, i don't have time for that! Super busy schedule! But I have heard from many people that it helps! I did try UV light treatments, it helped, but was so hard to get to!
I used to know this really cool kid with full-body psoriasis in big patches, like my dad's. We both went to the same summer camp by the sea, and every year after about the first week, his psoriasis would have totally calmed and he'd tan out vitiglio-style. He chalked it up to the sun, sea, and happiness. If only living on the beach and messing around all day forever were covered by my insurance, haha. Long-term treatment plan, maybe...? I've actually heard that before! That's crazy! I think it might be called life after death and not covered by HMO. Or for the atheist redditor, it's called the internet.
Wait, how do you not have time for that if it could potentially drastically change the way your skin looks? I dated a man that was writing his dissertation, in a fellowship, and teaching at community college but still "found time" to go tanning every week because otherwise his psoriasis outbreak would be extreme. If the condition is devastating (which I believe) than how is 2 20-minute sessions so outlandish that it's not worth your time? You talk about how you're sad about not being able to go to water parks--if you can't go tanning to fix the problem, how do you miss an activity that would take like 4 or 5 times as much time-spent to enjoy? So confused. I guess I should have elaborated, I spend a lot of my time on the road for my job, usually in a different city every night so it's tough for me to nail down a plan like that. When I'm home I usually don't think about it, but now that you brought it up I think I will try to wake up earlier and make it happen. I guess it's so easy for me to convince myself I have no time for it instead of actually just doing it! Thanks for the pep talk! I will go tanning TODAY!
What's your favourite colour? Black or navy blue!

I cant help but ask, have you tried Blue Start Ointment, the one thats guaranteed ASK FOR IT now available at Rite-Aid? Never, I've started a list of everyones recommendation though.
Tried hempseed? A couple spoonfuls a day can give you all the EFA's the human body needs... this can help a lot of things. But, I have read that some Psoriasis sufferer's have had relief, sometimes overnight, after applying hempseed oil. Hmmm, interesting, I will give it a go! Thanks!
Do you smoke? No... I was always lucky not to get the habit.
I feel terrible for you, I have it very mildly and it's only on my hands and feet. I'm good at covering my feet when it gets bad, but my hands are covered in band aids most of the time, and I'm always getting ask or stared at when it's at its worst. What type of medicine do you take? I go all natural! Only moisturizers!
You don't want to go to water parks anyway. they're full of people much more disgusting than you think you look. This comment is made of win! Thanks! But I mean, water slides are pretty much the most bad ass invention of humans ever. It was like once we got a basic knowledge of physics, the next step is build giant tubes filled with water that you can ride. My only regret about humanity is that there isn't more slides put to practical use in the world!
TIL everyone on reddit had Psoriasis. Lol, apparently only 5% of the worlds population has it. But a lot of them are in North America. That's funny, I'm actually shocked and humbled that so many people can relate!
I have psorasis. However it's mild, but along my nose ridges, behind my ears on the top of my head I flake. It isn't red, or obvious, but it's there. I'm glad its not a nuisance for you yet. If I could offer one piece of advice though, I wish I was more proactive is stopping it before it became wide spread. It took years for me to get this bad. As soon as it starts spreading you should tackle it before it takes over your arms and legs!
I heard olive oil can do the trick to make it better if you use it regularly. Interesting, I will add it to the list!
I am 13 with eczema. Do you have some body image issues or are self conscious about it? I know the thirteen year old me would never have taken off his hoodie no matter how hot it was.
No, its not that bad. The only time it gets real bad is when it breaks out but thats usually in places i can easily hide, such as my shoulder or lower back. Otherwise it just looks like red goose bumps all over my body. This is currently the most active part on my body(arm): Link to imgur.com. Hmmmm! Well keep fighting the good fight!
There are tons of physically healthy but psychologically weak people who are depressed for no reason and have never truly suffered a day in their lives. If they all had Psoriasis, then half of them would commit suicide. I'm glad that you guys are stronger than these people.
Yeah I wish more people had your attitude. Thanks! That means a lot! But from doing this AMA I could never have believed so many people suffered from it with such great attitudes. Not to mention all of the people who suffered from it then got better!
I feel your pain. Unfortunately, I suffer a different yet also devastating skin condition called Ichthyosis :( Oh my god, I google image searched that and I saw all the photos of babies and it broke my heart... Was it like that when you were born? How do you live with that? I think you should really be doing an IAMA.
I usually just say i have dry skin, and leave it at that. Real friends don't care about your skin conditions! :D. I'm so glad, thats what I finally decided in the end!
I just want to say props to you. My childhood BFF had it since he was around 5 and i have seen many people make judgements based on his appearance. It takes a valiant person to go on reddit and share your experiences and thoughts on the matter. thank you :) Thanks! But you guys make it easy.
Congrats on the sex. Thanks! This is kind of what it was like: Link to www.youtube.com
I only ever had one partner who saw me at 60% coverage, but he was a WoW boyfriend who wanted to propose three weeks after we started dating. So, you know, got my sexy on but maybe he wasn't emotionally stable either. I am laughing so hard. Surprising my girlfriends just got physical with me without even asking what it was, now that is ballsy! I don't know if the spots had been switched if I would have been able to do it.
I've been told that cutting out carbs often helps. I don't know if I'm willing to cut that out! Scott pilgrim and I love garlic bread.
Not really a question but this is pretty much my life except that I'm 20. If you can believe it my legs are worse than yours. I understand brother, I understand. That's crazy, I'm sorry man! But this whole Thread has some crazy suggestions to try! So I'm excited that it worked out that way!
I hope you see it too, its beautiful and definitely a weird feeling to float there weightless and unsinkable, like the water is a lawn chair. I sort of wish i had taken some of the water back in a bottle, not even sure if thats legal. There is always time to go back right? ;)
Post a pic. Done.
My psoriasis is really, really minor. :/ nothing like this. Makes me feel bad for complaining about small skin stuff like acne that can be easily treated. Hey, but at least now you can look on the bright side when you feel down. I guarantee a lot of people on this thread have felt worse at times and would trade with you in a heart beat!
That being said, everyone fights a tough battle, yours is no different than ours.
I'm sorry. That's all I ever wanted to hear.
People are way too fast to judge. Do you have psoriasis?
No I don't. I'm just an everyday teenager, who feels your suffering. You've made making this thread totally worthwhile, I really thought it'd be cool to show regular people that its not something to be afraid of.
But I also fear you're the kind of stand up person who doesn't need persuading anyway!
Thanks for being a great person!
It seems like you've gotten a few suggestions that you haven't heard about yet. Please give us an update later on how any of those things may have helped you. Good luck! I will do! I will document the journey!
A suggestion: Dovonex (by prescription) and cocoa butter. You're welcome. For someone supposed to make it difficult, you've made it very easy ;). I have used Dovonex, it didn't have any effect for me! But I will try the cocoa butter.
Dude..............................I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND. I do all of the above too, it just took me a lot of positive thinking and a real re working of how I viewed myself and my body image to get it.
I have psoriasis too. It isnt socially debilitating for me though. I have a girlfriend, friends, and have no problem swimming or anything, But it does suck have to take time out of your day to treat it. I used to wear long clothes everywhere, even in blistering summer heat. I think it forged me a stronger personality in the end though. Fists up for living life to the fullest.
My father has psoriasis and it was also passed down to my brother and I. The best thing ive seen for this crap is to eat as little unprocessed foods as possible and travel to hawaii to bask in that water. Hmmm... I don't do either of those very often, but when I do, skin... WATCH OUT!
You are what you eat. I AM HOTDOGS!
Thanks for the post. Now that I think about it I think I met someone with this a few years ago, I just assumed it was some kind of wierd, crazy burn he got as a kid or something but now I know better, thanks! This comment made doing this IAMA so worth while.
I had a councilor at my camp with the same condition a few years ago, I've always wondered what it was but never asked him. Always thought it was exima. Now you know, and it is not terrifying.
My mother in law has psoriasis as bad as yours too. She recently was told about a new drug from her doctor called Stelara. She got her first shot last week. You may have already heard of it, but if not: Link to www.stelarainfo.com. (And no, I do not work for the pharma company LOL) I'm completely terrified of taking prescription drugs, obviously my body has it for a reason. Might as well live with it.
Just remember that there are always strangers on the internet out there pullin' for you, man! Thanks! It's nice to see such a community around it. We should really set up the subreddit for advice on this. I spent many a lonely teenage years wishing for just one friend to talk about this with. I met this really popular girl on the bus who had psoriasis but told me to shut up when I brought it up. I wasn't even being creepy or weird. Plus it was only us on the bus! Heartbreaking.
Sorry for your suffering. Link to en.wikipedia.org No, I know what I'm watching after game of thrones tonight!
My father has psoriasis. It covered 75% of his body. I'm not sure what he takes, but most insurance covers it I believe, and its price depends on your weight. I think its Remicade. Also, he has arthritis associated with psoriasis. Can't walk some days. Sorry if this sounds odd, I'm tired. It's okay! I might try it! I keep hearing about this arthritis, I'm truly horrified.
I now feel bad for whining about my eczema. My sister has a rare skin disorder called Epidermolysis Bullosa so I understand the staring at water parks. I am well practised in giving people returning death stares. My sister always said she would prefer people to ask rather than just stare though. Me too, the staring is the worst. That's why I wanted to do this IAMA to raise awareness about it, because it seems to me that people could really learn a lot from this!
Picking was the most difficult part for me. I would CONSTANTLY pick my skin because I just couldn't deal with the layers. The soft but raw skin underneath always made me feel better to touch because at least it wasn't a flake. Then I just got into a bad habit. This sounds like the start of a very violent self mutilation episode :(
Hello. I know part of your pain, as I have lesions under my knees, on my ankles and my back. I just want to let you know that you are not alone in this world. Thank you, it mean's a lot! I feel bad that they're behind your knees. That must be horrible during the summer :(.
My math professor has this I never knew what it was until now. Well I'm glad I enlightened you. It's not contagious.
The best thing you can do is let the other students in your class know what it is if they ever ask.
Don't bring it up around him because I guarantee his is probably self conscious about it.
We got pretty rowdy and offensive when cheering on our high school basketball team. There was a very pale white kid with what I think was psoriasis or something on his arms. I kept yelling "SWEET PSORIASIS BRO" "YOU BETTER GET THAT CHECKED OUT" yeah I'm going to hell To each their own I suppose.
