  1. thats great they are doing that! Unforunately i will be riding in Tuckermans Ravine that weekend....oh darn.
  2. Hunter was AWESOME on sunday. Top to bottom corn. I rode hunter on June 4th last summer too. about 150 yards long. Very sweet. No problems with anyone. But definately watch out for PA resorts busting ya. Ive heard nothing but bad things. However, A friend of mine said he would go over and skin those lower trails on montage without problems. If you go to Montage watch out for 16 year old Gangstas too....How do you "ROLL?"
  3. Will be there sometime 2morrow... Gonna Get out on the Tele's to see how rusty i am. Green Black Diamond havocs, Blue Shell, Brown pants, White helmet.
  4. Ok. I see what you are saying. However when a rider grabs and spins, his whole body does too...Riders spin with their whole body like skiers do. Now im not good enough on tele skis to spin yet, but i notice skiers winding up for a spin with their UPPER BODY no? Am i missing something? But anyway, Yeah Wisp looks cool. Any idea what elevation they are at?
  5. Technically, the 1st snowboards made were not really influenced by skiing. The "Snurffer" was invented as a toy for children (1965) but then became popularized....People like Jake Burton liked it cause it resembled SURFING(Alhtough Jake Burton was a Skier). Dimitrije Milovich, who started Wnterstick in 1972, was inspired by riding cafeteria trays down a hill in college. Tom Sims was influenced by SKATEBOARDING and wanted to take it to the snow (1977). Then in 1980 SKI TECHNOLOGY was introduced into snowboarding and then skiing REALLY INFLUENCED snowboarding technology-wise. So technically i wouldnt say snowboarding STARTED from skiing
  6. So let me get this straight, as i am just catching up on this..... Its NOT OKAY to curse, but it is okay to beat someone up? And no one EVER has cursed at Montage? Wow dood. You are just looking for ANY excuse to hate that mountain. Bummer. I was there that day and had a Ball! Didnt think it was too crowded...i hardly waited in line.
  7. Purely opinion here right? IN MY OPINION, its hard to say whom is better. Both riders and skiers literally SPIN in different ways and both look dope when done right. Kinda like saying "what tastes better? apples or oranges?" They both IN MY OPINION are pretty good. Dont skiers twist their bodies? Dont boarders spin the whole way through? If they didnt wouldnt they fall everytime? Lets not forget where skiers got the whole Spining w/ grabs from.....snowboarders.
  8. Very nice! I remember those days. Throwing everything off of very little.
