Corey Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hello, I just want to add more information about my status based on Moderator's thread. I am Korean and a doctoral student from Virginia. I am eager to improve my alpine skills by beginning my life with proper technique for alpine but there is lack of information about alpine. I know it is a very early time to post my message but I hope you guys can give me some advices such as joining your group with free lessons/tips or cheaper lessons. Please give me some advices and then I will appreciate for your help. Ps. Thanks to Bryan and Michellle for your help. We just got an email from our friend Mugika. He's in Colorado now and had a bad first day on an alpine setup. Can anyone assist him? It sounds like he's in Denver until Dec 30th, no mention of where he's riding though. He's been in touch with some instructors, but he can't afford a private lesson. Any volunteers? Please contact mugika2@naver.co7m (remove the seven) if you can help.

Any volunteers? Please contact mugika2@naver.co7m (remove the seven) if you can help. I'm sure LCI crews will instruct him everything he needs to know about alpine snowboarding. If you can contact him, please tell him to contact me if he comes back to Virginia. I also sent him an email too.

I guess he may be able to read though..but not sure. He asked me where and when LCI crews meet for 24th and 26th. Please leave the info. here so I can forward it to his email. Thanks.

inkaholic Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 We meet at the short tables upstairs across from the Wedge bar if earlier than 8:15 (look for hard boots) or at chair 1 at 8:30. If not there at those times then we can usually be found riding chairs 1, 6 and 2 from reload at mid mountain. Ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arneburner Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 I met mugica this morning at Loveland. After a few runs to midway on lift 2 we went over to lift 1. By the end of the morning he was linking turns down Mambo. The wind was too bad to go any where else. Nice guy who would like to ride with us on Thursday. See you then.

mugika2 Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 Hello, this is mugika. I am now able to post on here. I really want to say that thank you so much for you guys' concerns. I would like to go to Loveland on this Thursday to ride with you guys and get your valuable instructions and tips. I am so glad to meet alpine boarders in Colorado. Thanks Arne for teaching me today. I am so excited to see you guys on Thursday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.T. Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 Shelly and I showed up late. Kept an eye open but did not see anyone else. The wind was too bad to go any where else. Roulette was super grippy, but the wind on the lift ride up and the wind-induced vertigo from the lift to the pitch was brutal. Richards was nice as-well. Made three runs with only Shelly and I on the pitch. Air temp. in the parking lot was ~20ºF, with the windchill factored in, temp was definitely in the -10ºF range.

John E Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Who is in this weekend? I assume most will be there Sunday. If anyone wants to carpool, I could meet at the parking lots around 6:30 or so. - John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 John E suggested posting here to look for a car-pool from Denver for SES. I am coming in from Canada to Denver at 5pm on Friday Jan 31st and am looking to split the cost of gas / car-pool. I am flying out the following Sunday, but am hoping to spend a day in Denver (never really explored the city), so my return is flexible. I realise that there is a shuttle - but I thought I would see if anyone was already driving / renting a car and wanted company on the drive over to Aspen. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mugika2 Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Hello, Guys, This is Yong and I safely came home. I really enjoyed riding with guys guys and appreciate for your instructions. I will miss you guys and Loveland. When I go back to Colorado, I would want to show you guys my improved alpine snowboarding skills if I can spend more time to ride in Virginia. I will keep in touch with you guys until we see coming spring or winter. By the way, Happy new year!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I think we could arrange something on both ends, including a bed in our guest room. I am planning on leaving for aspen stupid early on Saturday morning, and then riding on the Saturday morning after the banquet, getting back Saturday afternoon. I am in Denver, about 20 minutes from the airport, depending on traffic, and 5 minutes from downtown. Pm me and we will go from theremario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronG Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 The LCI are some of the best people out there in the carving community. They have helped me out with boards/bindings to use along with a ride to and from the hill on more than a few occasions Wish I could make it up there to carve some trenches with them soon. I just have to remember to keep my hands off the snow or risk separating my shoulder in one of Mario's trenches! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
