is it just me or do any of you guys love making a huge spray of snow when u ski? especially in powder i love getting my speed up and having a huge contrail behind me, i dont even want anybody to be able to ski within 40 yds behind me. one day at loveland last year me and atlskier were in one of there huge bowls and he was behind me. i got going pretty fast in about 12 inches of pow and he got nailed trying to ski behind me, it was really funny. just thought i would share my love of being totally sorrounded by snow. oh also last year at copper i got my first face shot. it was march 10th and the weather sucked, it was super windy and the snow was drifiting in some areas. the weather cleared for about 10 minutes and it was perfect timing because right when iut cleared i was staning at the top of a perfect widely spaced tree run with a few moguls. the whole thing was blown in and the snow was maybe 25 inches deep and the sky was dark blue, the sun was bright and each turn i made i sunk down and the snow was billowing over my body. I love it when your in the snow and u start turn, u feel urself start to sink and then bam, it nails u in the face and all I can see for about 5 seconds is perfect snow all around you.

The best is when your entire run is one huge face shot. That's when you know the snow's deep.

equivalent to that on the east coast is a nice ice burn all up and down your side after you crash and burn doing about 50.

its fun to do that into the luftline. yea ive never had an entire face shotrun, but i can only imagine. i never hit my west trips right, it just so happened that the snow was blown in perfectly. i got like a 4 turn faceshot. then i dove into the trees and i couldnt go as fast.

There were about 2.5 days this season where it was like that. You'd think it would be really hard to choke on snow, but if the right amount goes down your throat you just can't breath for a minute.

yea powder is pretty much the best thing ever. here on the east, kicking up ice chunks and loose grannular is all we got. that shit hurts like hell to ski behind.
