Hey I am thinking about moving to London. So I am just wondering if there is anywhere to ski around there? Right now I am an hour drive from Blue and that is where I have been skiing. So I am just wondering where you London people ski?

So if and when I move to London, my best bet for a place to ski is still Blue? So i'd be looking at a 3 hour drive. There is nothing anywhere closer though? Just somewhere for me to be on the snow like atleast once a week... like i'm not gonna drive 3 hours each way that often. Let me know, thanks.

London has a hill (bump) called boler mountain. They hace some pretty good mountain biking their but not really that good for skiing. Western does have a lot of jibbing possibilities.

Life is tough. Get over it!!!

yeah I am a london person, boler is only a bump, but you can lap park and not get bored there, supposedly they are placing in a half pipe with 15ft transitions (so what's the wall height?? stupid people in their flyer...) If you come here just stop by any night of the week and someone might be lapping, usually myself (kevin) martin, jacob or anyone else about six of us depending whether or not jon is back off a knee injury.

yea i will be back this year kev...but i think i will lay off the rails at least in the beginning of the season. who is kinz anyway? but yea drop by at least once, it's nothing big or anything close to blue but it's something to pass the time...without spending a fortune on gas to get to blue.

i go to cobble hills instead of boler, the pipes better and theres less dicks there. also i think it has a better rail selection, but i only went to boler once last year (the day they put in the c box) so i dunno if they got any other new shit. also what school u gunna go to?

the only problem with cobble is the never fucking put a decent goddamn table in.

getting to said rails in western is effort though, and in case you haven't noticed I'm a lazy prick. banting we can drive up to the landing.
