Paging @inkaholic @snow job 1 Thinking holesaw, jigsaw, belt sander and slow set epoxy Buy a cheapass board and experiment

Monday mornings on site as I'm feeling a little gimpy, I get a lot of " what's the matter old man looks" to which i reply" i'm beat up from snowboarding yesterday" The response usually is: "What??!! No way"

So is you new stick... Wait for it the buttah knife Sorry, the 'Rona has me losing my mind

I'm out for certain, covid finally caught up to me Mario

Out for tomorrow, Sunday will be game time. Feel like I'm coming down with something Mario

talk about teeing it up, your response: " you should slip those moguls you make, they throw me off"

$hithole lovey groom has been pretty spectacular again this season. We'll see what happens once we hit melt freeze season. Come slum with us sometime John, ain't much of an apres scene, but the riding has been stellar Mario

Jeebus .why so bitter? This respnse, coupled with some of your rants through the years, has left my usually loquacious self speechless. Mario

I am So glad you came out of that okay per our conversation yesterday. made me a little ill when i saw your text. Thanks for posting that Mario

"A Bad Craftsman Blames his Tools" If your sl board is set up like your gs board, and you could carve it just fine outside of the gates, then your issue is not equipment or setup, it is more than likely you are not putting enough energy in the board to bring your turn radius down tighter. I can ride lazy and make gs turns all day on my slalom board, but if I put some oomph into it, I can whip that board around and about kiss my own a$$, not that I would want to... Not a racer, just a freecarver, taught by Coach Inkaholic Mario

Didn't someone with them die in an avalanche a few years ago? Edit, it was a photographer from powder addiction

I thought so Thanks Andre!

How early? projecting rolling through there about 7ish so that I miss a bunch of the earlier traffic heading up to summit and beyond

I wouldn't post that in public, Sarah Mcglaghlin might come after you for animal abuse Mario

Isnt Mugsy a boat anchor?

Another short and sweet one today. Due to the potential for wind holds and general spring break madness, I decided to go to the valley today Ice, Inky, NSFNG and myself laid waste to switchback in an hour and a half before we called it due to a slope littered with first timers, texans, okies, kansan's and all the other nitwits riding on a slope way over their ability having to extricate themselves from the mess of trenches we left. Ink and I were on slalom boards, increasing our trenching by about 40%. Right when I got back to the silver sled, the wind came up, and once again, the lights went out. I am thinking of heading over to Cooper next Saturday since I have a hall pass, and escaping some of what seems like an excessively early spring break. Let me know if anyone else is interested, I plan on being back to the luv on sunday, as always Mario

Planning on 3 tomorrow based on possible 60mph gusts. See you at the race lot

Thanks Ron, I really appreciate that. That biff really rattled me

My 8rw is amazing. I don't heal as well as I used to Post ride protein is a must, I wish I had started this years ago. How important the mental aspect is in this sport. After a wicked crash at MCC on Tuesday afternoon, I could not make a turn to save my life for the rest of the session I was so sketched out that I lost all of my confidence. Its coming back with each ensuing day on the slopes

While Ice and SVR are chasing pow in Japan, A few of us spent Sunday Funday tearing up the LUV. Crazy crowds, pulled in at 6:25 and was in the back of the second row. Day started sunny and warm, so I kept the base layers to a minimum, and popped my 7% vlt lenses in my goggles, and left the rest in the silver sled. Lots of six checks on my way to ptarmigan. After escaping the initial Kook armada, got in a few on the practice field, then on to Bennetts for a few. FNG, aka J49 was tailgunning me down turtle creek when I managed to find some uber soft, about a 6 on the MES scale, and butt braked to a stop on a rippin' healy. Fun times. Moved on to 6, and aboso****inglutely tore up roulette. Ink, J, and I left some nasty trenches into the lift chicane without any remorse. On our third ride up, someone started playing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4XbV3gCm2Y wind came up, temps started dropping, and I couldn't see shit. I headed to the bottom and pulled the chute, crowds and kooks became overwhelming, and not worth the effort of changing lenses and layers. Skipped the Rat,and headed down the hill. Cars were parked on 6, it was almost like closing day with all lots full. Crazy. Mario

Well done sir!

Sunday mornings 8:30 at Chets Dream for carve church Mario

And a big A$$ protein drink at the end of the day really helps with next day soreness
