Tabatha Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Hello MSLM carvers, Checking in to see who is around and how the conditions are. Thinking I will be there the morning of the 24th and the 26th ... will others be there too? Are the conditions OK yet? Anything open? We just got a foot and a half of very light fluff, so much snow - I hope your weather fairy has been as kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewart Hodgins Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 We should be around as well as some regulars. We got amazing conditions and everything is open, except the outback. MSLM has been getting hit with snow storms off and on for the last week or so as well as some very cold temps allowing them to blow lots of snow.

Tabatha Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Fantastic - my new Coiler and the Donek are both ready to ride. Will post on Monday to confirm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted December 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 How much is a MSLM season pass and how many times do you have to hit the hill to pay it off? Unless you know of awesome lift ticket deals ... just wondering. There is a small chance I will be in Orillia for two weeks, in which case I may go every morning (because I can :-)) See you Tuesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewart Hodgins Posted December 21, 2013 Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 I think its about $750 now as it went up in November, so i don't think it will be worth it. as for lift ticket deals ill look around but off hand i don't know of any.

Tabatha Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Might head over tomorrow ... well it be good or ice? Drive up from Toronto wasn't to bad, after I cleared the inch of ice off my car! Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted December 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 Great seeing so many of you out today. Looking forward to a few more days at MSLM this year ... OK; just one more tube this year. Plan is for Monday. Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I plan on being at MSLM at 9am tomorrow. Will part on the Mt. St. Louis side and slowly make my way over to the usual spot. See you all tomorrow (and Tuesday and Wednesday!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewart Hodgins Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Hey I just took your bindings off your board and saw that you had heel lift on the front foot and toe lift on your back foot... the complete opposite of what i and every one else I know rides. Lol so your bindings may have been set up backwards. We will park on the Moonstone side tomorrow so you can pick up your board if you decide to come out and play in the fresh snow tomorrow.

Tabatha Posted December 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Wow - some things you should just tell people in person instead of posting them where everyone can see. I think when they tuned it they must have reversed it which explains why it was a total gong show when I tried to ride it earlier this week. Probably not making it tomorrow. But will be there at 8:30 on Wednesday - Moonstone side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewart Hodgins Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Yeah that what I thought happened. Still doing better then me, last week i went to go night riding and forgot one liner for my boot. See you on Wednesday. Stewart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaz Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) Jan.15.2014 Conditions today : Soft (sugar and ice chunks mix on ice-base ) on most of runs, icy on Promenade. Temperature : -4 to -3 degrees They need more snow to recover from rain/warm-temp last weekend. Started snow from 2:00PM. Hopefully they'll get enough snow over night. It was icy on Promenade but I enjoyed it. I'll be there tomorrow too. I called my wife and asked to capture a MSLM webcam picture.

kaz Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Jan.16.2014 Almost the same as the conditions the day before, but it was better on Promenade. I really enjoyed the icy run that day. Jan.18 We had 4 to 5 inches of snow in Barrie so I assume MSLM got the same amount of snow on the 17th. I got there late due to working the night shift on Friday. The runs were already a little bumpy when I arrived. And there were so many people, more than a usual weekend. Hopefully they pack the runs hard overnight.

kaz Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Jan.22 -30 degree in the morning. Snow was a little slow. But became good after 11PM. Runs shape was great all day today. Should be great conditions tomorrow as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaz Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Jan.23 -12 degrees. windy. Midium packed conditions. Wind slowed me a lot but the snow was good. Tried another Coiler today. I love this board as well. Long but easy to control. High edge grip. I need a steeper run :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliechocolate Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 [ATTACH]37424[/ATTACH] Nice rides. I don't think I've seen you on anything other than the Ogasaka. The crew misses you but I think you're better off there with all that snow :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaz Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Feb.1 -2 degrees. Mid-packed in the morning, soft afternoon due to snow. I didn't go up today (Sun) b/c got somethings I should do on weekend. And my knee can take a rest too. Am going up there on Tuesday. Hi charliechocotate, How's it going? I heard Cypress has not gotten enough snow yet. I might brought snow cloud with me from there. I have a F2 equipe 178 too. I wasn't comfortable with riding narrow runs. Now here, runs are shorter but wide enough to avoid people. So I'm using longer boards a lot here. Please say hi to YVR carvers for me.

kaz Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Feb.6 -18 degrees in the morning, -8? degrees afternoon. Hard-packed. It turned great conditions. I thought it was gonna be soft-packed because of snow yesterday. A skier came up to me and complained about my trenches today. He said "how do you feel damaging runs? Yours are too deep." or something like that. I said "Thank you.". But he was serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe T Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Should have told him how you really feel ... I'm looking at a mid week session next week to do some damage. Will let you know once I confirm. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I will be at MSLM tomorrow (Friday Feb 14) at 9am for half a day of riding. Will start (and park) on the Mt. St. Louis side and work my way over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe T Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Hey Tabatha. One day late .... A few of us were out today. Conditions were great, lots of sun for a change! Should be back on the weekend. Made photo of the day too. :) http://www.mountstlouis.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabatha Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Dam! Both because it is an AWESOME picture and because if I had have known, I probably could have made today. Not sure about later this weekend - but keep me posted. Around the area for my mother's birthday so my priority is here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Soze Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Hey Kaz, what are the pads under your bindings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaz Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 That's great, Gabe!:D Next time will be me. Today was a good day. Keyser : Those are GREX FCX plates. http://www.grexjapan.com/suspensionitem.html Just risers but they absorb vibration. They make your bindings feel a bit softer.
