I had a great time, despite the winds it was an amazing day. It was good to meet everyone and i really enjoyed myself. And also enjoyed raggin on all the oldies. I must say, riding with much more experienced and skilled people really helped me and i probabaly learned more all that day than i have this entire season. Special thanks to Henry for the ride and Rob for the entertainment and beer. Hopefully Bruce is doing alright.

EMAIL SENT REGARDING RIDE
This is going to be great! (said in my best Flounder voice)Osler has the nicest snow and the most consistent pitch in the Collingwood area.
I'm going to bring a couple of boards for people to try out - a Prior 174 4WD and a Volkl 168 GS RT. If anyone has any small boards (<150cm) that they want to move, please bring it. My daughter has caught the racing bug.
If anyone wants a ride from West Toronto (Etobicoke), email me.

o wow, id like to try out some of these boards (looking to buy something from f2 for next season) Would you have bindings on them or would i have to transfer my race plates?
-

I was there today, absolutely amazing, well except for a few ice spots but it was good all in all. Got mighty choppy mid day though:(
Hope not for your sake. That's a great place to carve on if the conditions are good. Haven't been there in a while. -
Looking forward to this guys
I was out at alpine and georgian peaks today and the conditions were amazing, hopefully it holds up.

I know a guy who rides a dirtsurfer, i tried to ride it with very little luck.
Although, i would like to actually get better at riding them beucase they seem like ALOT of fun.
Kites.......MMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm GOOD!Never had much luck finding a good place to use kites with my longboards.
I use my kite surfing kites on the beach my Dirtsurfer. (That`s the weird looking thing in my avatar).
Fast, OMG. Two wheels makes so little rolling friction and the faster you go the further back in the window the kite sits until it gets mind bogglingly scarey and then its power slide or jump to burn the speed.
I`d love to try a Kitewing one of these days too, they look like they`d be lots of fun on any kind of board.
Check out.

A friend of mine who rides a freeride board wanted to try my alpine, since he has the same foot size and shape he used my hardboots too. I set the angles at 45 for him and he seemed to do alright. He said the first 2 or 3 runs were shakey but after that he got the hang of it. Id say it really depends on the riding ability of the people who are going to ride the board or how quickly they can adapt to the angles and narrower stance.
-
see, now id have to be nuts to try that, kite boarding alone scares me, but going down a mountain with rocks and such, maybe il try it
-
me and my friend did that to his old snowboard, we had 220mm trucks on it and a wind surfing thing on it (dont know what its called), we went wind road surfing

csquared: Thanks for all the info, i was just having a look at the trail map and some of the pictures and i cant wait to get out there! And the whole low traffic thing puts a smile on my face beucase theres nothing worse than waiting in lift lines.

house of the rising sun - animals (live)

adagio for strings - dj tiesto (gotta spice it up)

ahahahaha nice man, i actually started longboarding way before this alpine thing, it though id go from the less popular skate sport to the less popular snowboard sport. which i found to be a good idea!

I was just coming up the lift when i saw him being treated by the patrollers. I was lucky enough not to get hurt when i hit a soft shoulder.
Best wishes to Bruce on his road of recovery!
