big canuck Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Yo crew!! I had an unreal day out there. Literally best day ever. The snow was perfect. Riceball thanks again for organizing the event. Stoked to see the pics. Corey, if any of that follow cam turns out, would be super keen if you can post it on YouTube or whatever. Same with you Neil if anything looks any good from the steep pitch I'd love to see it. Overall a topshelf day. Thanks to everyone. Have fun over the next couple days.

ti_knee Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Hey Steve, I won't be able to make dinner... a bit too far south and I'm just home now. Time for a nap and some serious stretching! I'll mirror Kurt's sentiments... I was riding about 75% today and really looking forward to tomorrow.

Gordaire Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Sounds like it was a great day in Nakiska! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get up to to the mountain today, especially to meet Barry who was interested in my Cateks - sorry!! I have posted some pics of my equipment in case there was any more interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Canuck Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 what's the call for tomorrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Probably too late for you to read this but we're heading to the Lake. Just waiting for Steve to pick me up. Yesterday was fun, but the place was a zoo. Friday was much better. So good to see you all again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddy Tat Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Steve you organize a great get together. Its fantastic to see the amount of skill in the entire Calgary crew. I had a great time and its the first time Les and my two daughters also attended. I actually felt like I could sort of hold my own this year. Stuff I couldn't carve on last year I was able to ride this year and feel the energy coming back from my board. Olivia (10) had her first day on hardboots on Saturday and is now dying for me to put them on the little FP 3.5 I have in my garage for her. Zoe (7) loved riding and hanging out with "the Carvers". Both girls had fun at the apres party at Steve's and seeing pictures of themselves riding. Sorry I couldn't hang with everyone during lunch. But seeing as it was difficult to talk it's probably better this way. Steve and Ann thanks again for organizing this and enjoy the ice wine. Cheers, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Great conditions and great people - what more could you ask for? Thanks to Steve for organizing and Dave & Steve for hauling me around. Neil, Steve, and I went up to Lake Louise today. The snow was really fast and pretty grippy, with the occasional ice spot to keep you on your toes. I found myself going way too fast for conditions multiple times! Neil was grinning like a little kid at the moguls. :) Steve and I cheered him on and went around. LOL! I'll get the videos up over the next week or so as I find time. I'll post the HD versions to YouTube, then people can grab them with something like www.keepvid.com or similar. My 9 PM flight got changed to 11:30 with no notice until I got to the gate. :( Shame I can't edit the videos right now as I've got some dead time.

Neil Gendzwill Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Home safe, a little sore from lapping bump runs yesterday but otherwise fine. Thanks to all for a great weekend, especially Steve and Allison for being my chauffeurs. Looking forward to seeing some of the pics/video I missed from Saturday night.

Allee Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Thanks to everyone for a great weekend. Stoked that I got to ride with so many great people! It's just a shame that there were so many peeps at Nakiska on Saturday - although from the traffic going out, it looks like everyone in Calgary decided to get out before the cold snap hit. I don't think the crowds would have been much better anywhere else. Louise sounded like fun yesterday. Shame I was out of legs and trying to get some mobility back into my neck (yoga this morning was interesting ...) All the out of towners got out just before we headed into the deep freeze ... stay warm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garybergmann Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 That was the first NES for me, and definitely not my last. Next time I need to not hurt myself a week before and get rid of scheduling conflicts so I could come out more than just Sat and actually hang out with you guys later on! It was great meeting all of you and actually riding with some hardboot brethren, and sisterthen (?), for a change. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Canuck Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Friday totally rocked! left feeling totally inspired. Can't wait to see some of the pics/vids. Nice to meet everyone and nice to see some carvers I haven't seen in a while. If anyone found a pair of legs on the upper pitch of North Axe...pretty sure those are mine.

big canuck Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 After those photos, Bruce's head will never fit into that helmet again. Its for sale cheap. BTW looking for new best friend, qualifications are quite mininmal. Big Canuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puddy Tat Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Someone forgot to tell Steve that the official NES uniform is red jacket and black pants. I'm thinking it's gang colours. Steve hasn't shived his first jibber yet hence he's not allowed to wear the uniform? You can tell Corey is gangsta by the bandana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I've decided that the color of my next jacket will be "not red". It is kinda like the Flame's colors Corey, that should be enough!!! Go Flames!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
