It's a beautiful spring day at Mammoth with hero groom. Bring sunblock!
-
Can I start with a metal V-O Sidecarve? Once you're done with it I'm most interested in trying out the Edge. Never been on a skwall so I'm probably asking to eat it hard lol. I've got a skier friend coming along so he might be interested in trying out a monoboard or skis if you have them too.
What time do you get to Ch 2?
-
I will be up Sunday. Mammoth. Chair 2 in the morning
Sweet! Bringing any demos? I see you have skwals on your site
-
Awesome pow riding! Makes me so jelly
-
Friday - Mammoth
Saturday - June
Sunday - Mammoth
Monday - Mammoth
Gonna use up the rest of my Sport Legs on this trip

It'll be more high traffic but that gives alpine snowboarding some more exposure. The high speed quad is awesome too. We'll definitely have to keep an eye on the demo rack though.
-
If they do have to build a freestyle course, what about Deer Bowl/Chair 7?

Just got a new-used Arbor A-Frame to do just this. Haven't had a chance to take it out yet though but I'll report back with my opinion. I've heard great things about this deck so I'm anxious to try and rail some turns with it :)

I went up today (Saturday) but never made it on the mountain. My rear passenger tire blew out on the 15 and since they were EOL I ended up changing all 4 at the Costco in Corona

We'll always be on the fringe. Being a hipster isn't easy!:o
-
Looks like I might be up there early Friday to get an extra day in
-
Any tips are appreciated no matter how inarticulate. We'll figure it out somehow :)
As I see it:
1) Find shorter board with smaller radius.
2) Proceed to bunny slope.
3) Swallow pride.
I suppose #3 could proceed #1 and/or #2

Dammit
That is so awesome! Great way to show off under the lift too

Camps are fun and I learned a lot at the one I attended two years ago. If only Pureboarding would come to California...
-
If High doesn't fix their quad on the East resort I'll probably be at Summit on Sunday.

Omg can it get any worse for carvers at High? Did they give an ETA on when it will be back up?
-
I will be there!
Except I'm teaching some kids
I'm bringing lunch on the hill to stuff my face so I can charge during lunch hour. I might be on hardboots and an Arbor A-frame. Too scared to take the Coiler after the core shot on Goldrush last year

Okay, just completed 5 days on my new board in Colorado. Overall, I'm disappointed. The board is simply not damp and beat the **** out of me on choppy snow. Part of me thinks this is due to me using Burton C02 bindings because a lot of people have remarked the board soaks up chop well, etc.
In powder, the nose works awesome and the board pivots very well on steep terrain. It carves well on groomers and the big sidecut is a lot of fun.
I am thinking of a couple of different approaches to help with dampness- either try a pair of Burton P1 bindings or add a layer of rubber or something under my bindings.
I just picked up an A-Frame 162 to use for the rest of thisseason but I'm hoping to find a used one next season. Do you plan on keeping the Flagship? :)
-
Looking for one of these, let me know if you have a spare to sell:cool:
-
January 17th is MLK this year. Anyone going up? I have tentative plans to. Not sure which resorts what on which day yet but most likely June on Saturday and MM on Monday.

All my friends like to bomb down in what you define as a straight line. They go really fast and I always say they got some cajones to do what they do. They don't try to convince me to bomb and I don't try to convince them to rail. Our friendships have lasted this way
The masses just aren't use to seeing carvers take up the hill. There's no doubt that people behind you should make adjustments but personally I don't trust someone else to do that. I try to carve defensively and so far have avoided collisions *knock on wood*.

Now that is some steezy riding
I aspire to everything in your video. One day...
