you must be confused.

you clearly have never been there if you knew Rod Taylor you would know what a shiesty liar he is and how deadly and, uninsured and basically illigal on so many levels his shitty mountain is. (including the illigal imported hired help he has who live at the mountain) and lets not go into how deep in debt he is to the IRS and the woodbury community (you will find negative publicity in local news papers almost weekly in the winter) Rod will tell you he was an olympic hopeful in racing when in fact he was an alternate for a ragional try out for an olympic qualifier and didn't even compete. Rod doesn't give a fuck about skiing he just wants the 30+ dollars to ski the hundred foot strip of snow for half a day. Countless people have gotten broken off there on his deadly rails and dirt jumps INCLUDING ME. anyone who frequents this shit hole or has even been there for more than an hour will verify this.

i went to woodbury today

cant beat skiing on nov 5 in connecticut. i set up some boxes. 1st box is 4 foot gap to 10 foot box. i crashed a lot tryin to 2 on, and then finally got it. next was a fun little down box. next to that was an up flat bench jib thing that didnt slide well. there was a 30 foot step down that only 1 kid tried, because the landing was way too short and steep, and ungroomed. there was a box stall that we turnde into a qp/jump in the afternoon. a few snowbaorders did handplant flips and stuff. there was also a barrel jib that was fun to 180

nothing was groomed so it was hard to get speed, but ungrromed snow was easy to build lips with. 31 bucks was a bit of a ripoff. te rope on the ropetow snapped in the afternoon so i hiked for an hour

overall it was a good day
