2stroke Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 I havent been on the board at all both the forum and the Coiler... Going up to June next weekend Sat Jan 15 to Mon 17th. I am getting over a stupid hamstring injury so I have no time on the moto or boarding so I will be without legs... Hopefully we get more snow than rain. Anyone else?

breeseomatic Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Ilana plan to be up there Sunday and Monday. I'll be taking it easy as it's my first day on the hill. Let's get some turns in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nekdut Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 I'll probably be there, splitting time at Mammoth depending on the crew in tow demands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfman Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Hi, Sunday might work for me. There are some awesome pow days coming up which I would have to prioritize. Snowed in in Mammoth as we speak. Waiting for the mountain to pop the top. Cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stroke Posted January 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Awesome! Looks like it will be a nice weekend. I will be at June all 3 days, sounding like Mammoth will be zooed. My legs requesting groomers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcousticBoarder Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I'm up in mammoth now, snow finally let up. Spent all day clearing yards and snowmobile trailer haha. I am here til Sat, might see you guys at June! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekdut Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Yup, June tomorrow for me! See y'all there. I'm assuming it won't be major trenching with all of the new snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nekdut Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 I ran into Chris/2Stroke a number of times today. Great to chat with you! It really wasn't prime carving conditions at all. When it was smooth enough, it was too soft to push it, otherwise it was chunky monkey all over. Fairly tiring slarving unless you sought the tree pow. There was one other guy in a yellow jacket that I didn't get to connect with. I might be there tomorrow, but on two sticks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfman Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Doesn't sound good at all. Thanks for the heads up. Hmmmm. I guess i will take the risk and atay in Mammoth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stroke Posted January 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Like nekdut said, a bit soft on Saturday and a bit tiring, would dig boots in if pushed too hard, but I still had fun. Sunday had all the refugees from Mammoth, parking lots full by 9 and a 2 hour trip to make it to the lodge. Ran into Joe in the lot who decided on snowshoeing. Once at the lodge, after 11 now, we decided to eat lunch right then and that was the best decision. Snow was firmer and the crowd on the mountain was no issue, full for June which means about a 3 minute line at J7, Gunsmoke empty and held groom. Rode the Volkl gs and it worked really well for me, it appears to have less radius on the front than my Coiler so it seemed to cut thru better on turn in but held well when pushed. Monday was epic, nice groom, firm enough but left deep signature trenches. Saw a few carving softies but not other HB's yesterday, Joe made it up but we didnt connect before we quit at 1 with 14 runs in and quads toasted. Back in 2 weeks...
