  1. Today was special, I loved the uneven lazy but for most it just became a noob trap and was tough negotiating. Falls looked more similar to a bowling alley with distinct lanes and sort of the same for challenge. I rode Widow, mid, lower and midway while generally atrocious was nothing compared to the cross over which went from the beach to a hockey rink with mad holes in 20ft. How do you even do that ? I think my favorite part of the day though was salty trucking a snowboareder for going to slow, dude is an animal. It's always a good day skiing and good to have a full crew with JH gents back in the house but pretty rough conditions, hope tomorrow is at least a bit smoother.
  2. Rode with DW and AS this morning, sooooofffffttttt like leaving legit trenches. Challenge was just perfection, super soft carpet to let them rip. Lots of racer types in the house for some cool high-speed work on Rasins. It was getting uneven fast due to how soft it is but my best turns of the season so far for sure. If there is any way it's not mad brick tomorrow that would be real nice
  3. Switchback ? Finally! Boner city for realz
  4. I have the extra ankle or foot bone in both feet, its a genetic thing I don't remember the name of but regardless I like slippers, no lie before Atomic turned me on to the rs130 I could pull my foot almost all the way out like that kind of slipper boot. Lange makes a wide but I've heard all the wide foot people are on the technica mach 1, it comes in a regular, medium and high volume lasts and apparently is quite the miracle worker. I know nothing about it personally but as a wide boot guy it's number 1 on my list when I get new boots though I only do it when I absolutely positively have no other choice. All new boots suck.
  5. Damn I knew it was going to be empty, post rain has become the new best condition at blue. I have to be in NYC for work until Wednesday and I'm dying.
  6. What's wrong with Bibs ? They own actual snow as its considerably harder to get snow down your back/pants if you eat it.
  7. Major props, I heard it raining when I woke up and sleeping in was calling just way too hard. When I actually woke up a little bit ago I and saw it was a baby rain it was like fuck I bet it was good. No place finds the limits of the outerwear like Blue, so much rain, like legit rain and then it can be so ungodly windy.
  8. At least for the pasrs we were yelling for you to make it and then at them when they turned you around. I say speak your mind, the real actual issue is they don't seem to know how the gates work at the old 6er. The same thing happened where only the outside were open one day last week.
  9. Sick photos, really slutting it up and that is excellent flexibility on the spread eagle. You can tell you stretch
  10. Love our starting skating faces.....it looks like it could be good pizza but the flavor is the question, domino's is pretty good which you can get anywhere and dirtwolf said Tony's in Palmerton is standard NY style stuff which is pretty good pizza.
  11. Sick trip ! You got some really cool hills in and that's pretty good conditions for NH..... .... for many years the only EC skier on FWT was from Pat's peak, iirc it has some good steeps for 800 vert or whatever.
  12. One of the best snow conditions all year, to be able to rip on NMDW just makes the place so much better. Challenge being good was a real nice surprise too. It was good as a carpet but maybe even better when it got more 3d, so many places to get some air and it felt like real skiing. On my rocket docket to be home in time I realized my lower back is a little sore and I need a shower which is good for blue as it meant I was actually doing something. Everything skied well though there was alot of variation out there, midway alone had like 4 different conditions and coming soon the headwall is just too sloppy. Super sucks with the rain tomorrow, I really wanted to stay and enjoy the weather with a beer and another day of hero spring skiing would be dope. The best part of the day though has to be TP4, for a second I thought you were gone but I can't believe they made you go back.
  13. This is the picture for the if you see these guys don't serve them poster
  14. Rode from 9 to 1115, hero snow on everything but between the rain and fog I couldn't see anything. I did make out c1er from the lift and BFG crew but we were a full rotation off. First run down main I knew it would be good grip and should be smooth so let them go but I was 90% blind setting the edge the light was so flat. The hill did pretty good post 586436th rain of the season. The usual brown spots are coming through and some new ones like up top on Coming Soon. Crowds were low but a little busier than a normal rain day as there was a bus group from God knows where. Around 1030 it really started to get nice and it was grip it and rip it everywhere though the fog was super stubborn and if anything was moving down the hill. Really good morning to be out and let them run, a bit like tp4's report where it's more the days of old. Had you been able to see anything it would have been 10/10.
  15. Super jelly, love to see it so empty. Had to do some work but my God is it boring
  16. I don't know the schedule anymore as I don't night ski all that much but it used to almost never be open at night. Lots of college and high schools practice plus I think they don't want that many people on it. When NMDW is open with no features it's better as is switch, rasins you can literally fall down and it's almost always the hardest snow on the hill. I think it's best when in the slush when it gets more 3d and you can mix in some airs.
  17. If you can go when it's supposed to snow that's the way. Pow pow is part of the Jay dealio and as good as it can be it can also be equally terrible and hyper icy
  18. I think almost all of them do but they are very very reluctant to actually charge anyone in the case it would discourage someone from reporting. I no longer recall the circumstances but last season in NH there was an incident in the whites were people were clamoring for a charge and Iirc they eventually decided on $400 which is not a deterrent for anyone really.
  19. It was a bit hard which makes sense given the urea so I would think post rain may be even better
  20. The views from Sneakys or up top at Elk alone make the runs special but the freeway is an absolute classic. You can max short radius carve for like a solid min it's so wide. Generally I found if your starting at the mall if you work left and then back the crowds are mostly going the other way. They'll ski Sam's knob at 930 because it's right out the mall but nobody is home at 230. Like working back to front at Vail.
  21. It's super weird but it's like lemmings or something where they all show up en masse all at the same resort. Almost all of UT has been insane this year but apparently it's generally only one of the resorts that is way worse than the others. Two weeks ago they 4hr redsnaked Basin, while everywhere else is relatively empty, two days later you can't get to the bird but Alta was empty. A parking reservation at Brighton is like trying to get a table at Delilah at the Wynn but when you get there it's ride on. None of it makes any . I have and have had an ikon I'm not hating but they gotta figure the numbers out because for whatever reason they seem to all pick the same places.
