I know this will hurt you all, but maybe not that bad. Because I have been there, but there was no snow when I up there. It's an awsome view the hill looks like it could be aight when they get snow there. When I was there it was just windy on top with a one porta-potty and a couple dozen huge telescopes on top of the mountain. But really cool to see a ski hill in one of the greatest spots in the worlds.

you can get snow and beach here in washington, and better snow at that! a little further distance betweenthe two than in hawaii, but damn, you gotta really want that beach here cause its anything but tropical.
although water skiin in the winter is pretty fun

johnny tsunami is the greates movie ever. The skiers in that movie were pretty gay so I can understand why the snowboarders hated them. There was a pair of 1080's in the ski shop and a freeze sticker on the phone booth.

My girlfriend told me to shove my skis up my ass

Hey! I skied there. It's not as fun as you would think. Me and my cousin went to go see the volcanoes and we brought our skis along because we heard you could ski there. The road up that mountain was crazy, so fucking slow and scary. Once we go to the end of the road, we hiked to the top. Thats like 13500 ft and theres like no oxygen up there. We almost passed out. It wasn't much fun, but I got to say I skied in Hawaii, so its good bragging rights.

Two australians went on  a project to surf all 50 states.  It was sketchy at spots, but they were creative and had fun.  They were in winter wetsuits and tried surfing fin-less at my home mountain, pretty funny to watch.  Other highlights included tow-in behind a car (driving along a long bridge, surfer in water beside), and sand suring in arizona.  It could be done on skis too, with urbans in warm places and maybe even water skiing on pontoons in Florida?  Could be fun

Dude, they have AIDS in that pool. Never go to water parks at Disney.

I've heard stories.

Thats retarded, you can't get aids in a pool, the chlorine destroys the virus almost immediately. Blizzard Beach is the shit, along with the rest of Disney World.
