GENERALLY, these threads make me gag, but I think I might chime in here. Seriously though, fine, there are not that many girls. Point stated. done. Get over it. Why have there been like a thousand thingies on this? There will be sometime. Mostly, I agree with jibber girl (?). Why does it matter who you're with? girl, guy, skier, snowboarder, or even by yourself (sometimes my favorite)... really. At the risk of sounding corny as all hell, just ride. And a note to lizzie... 'too much whining and worrying about who's with who and what's everyone wearing at school tomorrow.' jesus christ. Not all girls are like that, depending on their age, very few are. Why would you maintain a stigma like that on your own gender? It doesn't make YOU sound different, it makes us all sound the same.
I sorta agree about the competitive thing, girls do push other girls. But learn to push yourself, compete against yourself, or whoever's around.
Don't get me wrong, I'm really not trying to sound pretentious (sp?) or anything. This year I'll spend a lot of time riding with a girl that rides for Nitro probably. Competition doesn't have to come from just skiing, that and I totally love her. We just have fun. Personally though, I have the most fun skiing with people I'm comfortable with. We're like a family. It doesn't matter when you screw up and they're there to give you props when you throw down.
