Unofficial Ski and Snowboard thread v.2011

The shorter days have me starting to get excited for ski season. Broke out the old "Steeps" DVD and got even more excited.

I've worked at a few resorts (Yellowstone Club, Bridger Bowel, and Mt. Hood Meadows) but this year I'll be lucky to have a few shots at Mt. Baldy.

About a week ago, I started watching all my snowboard DVDs, I'm a big fan of anything Standard Films puts out. Just bought my 12-day pass for this year (work too much for a full-season pass), and I also got a new board (Solomon 163 for $50) this year and new boots (ThirtyTwo for $110), just need to find a decent helmet now.

It's been snowing like crazy up on the mountain this week, and they're expecting a SHITLOAD this weekend, really hoping that they get enough of a base to open on Thanksgiving weekend.

I'm stoked. Sierras should be getting a good amount of snowfall in the coming days and into Thanksgiving weekend.

Beyond stoked. My new girlfriends + family are extremely into skiing too so I can feel an awesome season ahead. They are also fucking loaded lol.

Bachelor I presume?

Thinking about all you guys out there in the snow is NOT helping.

[Ryan...]

If I dont get out to the hills at least 10 times this year I'm gonna be pissed!
