Helmut Karvlow Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Any one riding in wisconsin, if you see a guy that looks like he could use help please help him out. his name is Mitch, he just started boarding. I took him out one time, he liked it so I gave him an old setup of mine to practice on. he's a great guy and could use some company and pointers. Thanks.

bjvircks Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Northern, Southern, Central, Eastern, Western? What hills does he ride? Not that I'm getting over there this season, but the cheeseheads might do better finding the guy if they knew where to look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pebu Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 ****, it's wisconsin... There can't be but 2 hills in the whole damn state! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjvircks Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 ***** yes, it's Wisconsin! As a matter of fact, there is only ONE hill in the whole ***** state... Rib Mountain, just outside of Wausau. Anything else is just a bump or a valley! Not looking to tick anybody off. Just thought a bit more info on where the guy might be would be helpful.

bjvircks Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 No worries, mate. I just know what it is like to be "the Lone Rider" in the middle of nowhere. Recently I was sitting in the bar of my hill, gearing up. A bunch of softbooters go by and I hear in their midst the clomping of what I think to be ski boots. I'm not paying any attention, but I glance down as they go by and see.... A BTS SETUP! WTF??? I'm speechless! Finally, just as they are just about gone around a corner I get out "HEY YOU! Hardbooter! BTS!" And so I met fastskiguy... from 'Chicago'... here in carve-wasteland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmut Karvlow Posted January 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Funny Mitch is also from Chicago. that's the only place close to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Send him up to Cascade Mountain! There is a slew of excellent alpine riders that frequent that resort. Think Snow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdifan_2003 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Here I am local too. I go to ALpine Valey. Also, just came back from a trip to Devil's Head ANd Cascade - Monday and Tuesday. For our local hills, this was good . Saw just one more hardbooter at Devil's Head :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xogiox Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I will be in Beloit, WI Next weekend. What is the best "mountain" around that area to board? I've heard willmont, cascade are good. Will there be anyone around that area that I can say hello to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdifan_2003 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Cascades is my vote . Don't even think of Wilmont (actually they are about 70-80 miles apart anyway). Don't bother with Devil's Head - lifts are slow, stop frequently and sometimes - http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/2009/12/14-injured-in-fall-from-chair-lift-at-wisconsin-ski-resort.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
