Deuxdiesel Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 Nice- where is that? I've been layed up with a broken hand for 5 weeks and should be good to go next week, but most of the areas here in the mitten have been hit hard by the long warm spell.

Crystal Mountain this past weekend. It was good for like an hour in the morning until it got too soft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pow4ever Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 nice! my old knee and poor back are envious of the youthful exuberance. As long as you are having a blast - don't take the following too seriously. I love the playful/dynamic style. Try bend away from the snow and not reaching down. There is some subtle difference between diving to the turn and bending at the waist and reaching for the snow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd Job Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 Slush is heavy pow. A good time but also a bad time, because the end is near! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try to bend away from the snow next time. It looks like I'm bending over pretty far to initiate the turn. 1 hour ago, Odd Job said: Slush is heavy pow.

Nonetheless, I'm still out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
