I made my first ebay purchase today.

Ever since I read about it in my powder magazine I have been ogling the new Suunto S6 watch. I bought it because it will track the vertical footage I ski in a day and will also tell me how fast I ski. I’ve always wanted to know how fast I ski. The watch (some may say it is a wrist computer) not only gives me this data but it records it and I can download the statistics and charts to my computer for safe keeping (and reporting on my webpage.) Look forward to hearing about my top speed and total vertical footage skied after skiing days.

The watch also measures slope steepness, altitude, vertical speed, number of runs, air pressure, temperature, weather trends, compass bearing, average speed, and of course it tells time too.

It had better hurry up and snow. I tell you what.

When you wake up tomorrow think, “boo!” ~ht
