my god the lift tickets are expensive! the park looks amazing but if i lived up there i wouldbe broke in a few days haha. but thats really somewhere i want to try. 2 half pipes! sweet :Ddid you have a pipe last year?and whats with the crazy hours? 9am – 4pm? thats kinda sad :shock:ours is 8am – 4am and our $40 lift ticket lets you ride the whole time.
my best friends brother goes to college in vermont! not sure where butwe're going up there next winter for some riding! do you guys have a street scene?
we live out here on the ice coast, so thats all we know :Dand she does fine. i dont know if its the board or if its the factthat she learned on hardpack/ice…sorry.she had k2 charm bindings for the past season and thought it was ok,but she really liked my ride ex bindings when she rode them on her board,so next year shes going with the ride girls LXh and forums melody boots.she rode rossi boots before from the rental shop. hasnt gotten a chanceto try the new ones out.
my girlfriend has the envi and she loves it.if you look up reviews, you can check out the ones for theskate banana, it has the magna traction as well and has tonesof reviews. the only thing is that alot of people that ride lib techput them into the “god of snowboards” section, when its really not.i ride a regular board which im really comfortable on, and ive riddenmy girls roxy a few times and the only thing i can say is its moreresponsive on easy turns than a regular snowboard. it makes thelow speed easy turns almost like a skateboard instead of a slowsliding turn of a snowboard.if you get the envi, the magna traction pretty much has no cons.its different, but not different enough where it'd take a day ormore to get used to it. maybe a few light runs. as far as consfor the overall board, its a well built one. but as with any snowboard,theres going to be SOhave you tried ebay? last time i looked they had a bunch at store prices.it reminds me of that arcade game from about 10 years ago that had themini board you stood on. remember that? i hope the game is better than that onethough, that game kinda sucked.
this is totally late but ive got a touch of insomnia and decided to post somethingthat i considered useful.my goggs pinched my nose. they made it really hard to breath so i cut some of thefoam away from the nose area and whala i could breath! plus it allowed forextra air flow through the goggles and prevented fogging. 2 fixes in one.
i think its a great idea for these places to let snowboarders in. we usually ride in groupsand have a togetherness that not alot of ski groups have.and the overall attitude of snowboarding has come down dramatically. so its a wastefor any good terrain mountain to limit or exclude snowboarders because ofa few bad apples in the 80's.of course if its completely set up for skiiers, i say let em have it. we'll just build a betterresort 😉
so they're not gonna plant it at lake lanier? sorry i get board reading long articals.man, i remember how crappy lake lanier was compared to white water.gatlinburg would seriously benefit from an indoor place. all they have to do is builda hanger down the mountain. the terrain is perfect. ive walked countless trails atgatlinburg and dreamed of riding them. but anywhere in the east would be awesome rah!hey an east coast get together would rock! we could all rock sugar mountain or something.i have some filming equipment, we could put a piece together.i get really stiff after the 1st day of the season. i kinda have to work into it. but ive gottenso bad from falling or running into people (that cut me off last second at the base ofthe mountain..totally not my fault) that i couldnt move the next day. but as far as serioiusinjuries, rails always kill me once a year. usually awell lets just all hope and pray that they build that indoor resort sometime soonso all us lower east side guys can ride all year!seriously, ill move to north carolina for that 🙂
thats insane! the most ive ever put down on a deposit was $50. most just hardcopy mycredit card incase something happens.screw gatlinburg, just toss some laundry detergent on a steep grassy hill and have fun 🙂
snow in alabama?!?!!??!?! omg ahahahhaah.i forgot there are a bunch of resorts in n/c thats not to bad of a ride for you.sugar (i think its called) mountain is a pretty big resort. dunno about their openings orterrain, never been.the things ive heard about ober gatlinburg are hearsay, but i hear it enough to believe it.ive heard you can ride there all year, because they put a matt you can ride or something.but my sister and her fiance went this past winter to try out her new skis, and they wouldntlet her ride her own equipment, they made her ride theirs due to lawsuits or something.if you find a good one let me know!though taking g/w's tax rebate to canada for a few days in whistler is a good idea too 😉
on the lower east side its always http://www.cataloochee.com . its honestly what they're famous for.its a small mountain, but they opened mid november when the rest of the resorts in the area(even as far up as indiana) didnt open till almost christmas closing break.for a good resort, go to perfect north http://www.perfectnorth.com its about an hour outsideof louisville and its REALLY pushing the 400 mile mark. im in nashville and you're about3 hours south of me, and it takes me 3 hours to get there… so figure about 6 hours.(though if you wanted to hang out and ride with the group of guys i ride with theres prollysomeone you could crash with half way, atleast thats a plus).paolipeaks.com is also about an hour away from louisville.the differences are, paoli usually has really bad snow. its more like hail unless its midtemps (30-40) but they have a technical park thats almostry this.type in
the url here, like from myspace or something[/img ]hopefully that'll work.oh, take the space between the g and the ]
