So I saw on the news yesterday that snowmaking has begun at a couple ski areas (Loveland, Arapahoe Basin, both should be open in like 2 weeks) and I'm getting amped for the new season. So i want to know where you ride, whether it's your home mountain or somewhere you went on vacation to let us know where you like to go and what you prefer to ride down on. Just don't say ski-blades or ski-bikes those are ghey. I want to punch the out-of-towners who ride those stupid *** things.
Post a pic if you got it.

Personally i hit up Keystone the most followed by Vail and Breckenridge. Always on a snowboard. Keystone is like 65 miles from my front door to theirs, about an hour drive there and back, so I can make it 40+ days/year.

i said it before and i will say it again breckenridge ftmfw. o ya i ski, armada arv's thats if my knee will hold up this year

 

Lucky, my mountain out here won't be ready til around Thanksgiving lol. It's actually going to be about 100 today. I board usually in Big Bear but me and some friends are planning a trip to Mammoth and I think I'm headed out to CO this year to board with my cousins. I've skied at Breckenridge, Vail and Copper Mountain but not boarded yet. I like Vail the best.

 

Breck is dope, the best day I had last year was there on a Tuesday. 2 1/2' of freshy = epic win

 

i used to snowboard.. then i blew out the good ole knee and havent been able to since...

it sucks though, because i loved it, especially being the adirondacker i am, whiteface was a blast

 

Damn man what happened? My buddy in the pic above blew his knee out too and he can still go. He did it in Feb and was ready to go by the next Jan. And he waited until Aug to have surgery. He tore his ACL and partially tore his MCL, Doc told him his reconstructed knee would be stronger than it was before.

 

i dont have any pictures, but i normally go to Elk Mountain in Pennsylvania and Stratton in Vermont

 

ya my dad blew his knee out tore his mcl and meniscus sp? and he still skies a year later.

 

Hitchhiked to Breck last spring break and it was phenomenal! Here are some pics:



We just found this in the woods. It was pretty sick.



Chillin. Heh.



End of our trip. Notice the goggle tans.

 

Jeff I'm jealous of those ARV's I demo'd a pair once and they were sick but just to wide for what I normally ride (Yay midwest corn snow)

I'm on a pair of Rossi Sprayer FS (not to be confused with scratches, mine are the freeride ones but at the end of this season I'm thinking of picking up some head Mojo's or maybe if I'm feeling lucky some AR6's)



ignore the stupid pose I was trying to look like an idiot, and the blue hat was because i was gonna get 08 Völkl Walls but decided to get a D60 instead.

rest of the outerwear is Oakley I forget the names of the coat and pants but they are ridiculously warm, I'll wear the pants and boxers and be comfortable all day long.

my home mound of dirt is the illustrious Perfect North slopes in indiana or Mad River Mountain in Bellfountaine, Oh (not to be onfused with Mad River Glen) they both suck, but for Ohio they work. Went out west for the first time last year and I'm def going back again this year.
