How often do you think about skiing?

Yeah, how frequently would you say that you think about? From pow lines to blunt 7's to just being amped on everything in general what is the time interval between ski thoughts?

For me it's pretty retarded. On average if I'm not thinking about skiing I'll think about it every 5 minutes or so. But often times I spend a good 20 minutes thinking about epic skiingness at a time.

Pretty much wherever I go whenever I'm there I'm thinking about all these sick ticks at that time.

Easily takes up most of my thought and even my dreams. It's pretty crazy.

At work I'll just look at shit in the room and imagine that it's a big ass kicker and watch these ridiculous seshes going down. And I'll see a trick in my head, and if it's something I think is fresh, it'll stick in my head for awhile, and I'll think about that trick for a little while. Right now I've been thinking about sw misty nosegrabs a lot. How ill is that trick?

I'm not sure how often it is, but it's a lot. I spend most of my 4 hour drives home from college looking at tree lines and thinking about skiing them.

It's the only thought that crosses my mind more than girls.

Like today I told a friend I had to go cuz I wanted to go running, and my friend said "Oh, is there a new girl in your life?" and I said "No, I just wanna keep my legs fit so I don't break my knees when I get back to skiing!!!!"

Hey, Drew is back! Long time no see!

Most days, I'll be honest. I also can never go to sleep if I start thinking about skiing. Shit just keeps me awake in bed, its awful.

I think about skiing pretty much always. I'll always think when I am walking around and driving how I could jib stuff on the side of the road and various other objects. This is going to be a long summer...

whenever i'm driving around or just sitting somewhere i'll think, hmmm i'll have to jib that next winter, or imagine the most random stuff you can do on skis and get a sick pic. out of it, then i draw it and the teachers come over cause i'm not listening and snatch my artwork.

when you are constantly looking at random things like, ledges hand rails , open hills to build the best backyard setup on, and stuff like that, and thinking, I could jump that or I could slide that rail or i could build the sickest kicker here ..
you know you have reached the point of no return...

i am long past that point, but wouldn't have it any other way:)

a fucking lot. today i bought shit for my summer set up/backyard setup/amphibous slider. I look at my skis every day, i'm on here a lot, i use skiing as a icebreaking conversation, When i tell stories they always always somehow include skiing, when i see handrails in my school as i always think of how cool it would be to urban them. There is a roof into a courtyard of my school and i want to ski off of, Yesterday i calculated how many days i've gone without skiing, a few times i've drawn pictures of skiing.

Dalton Trombow continous thought bullshit. JEA thats how much i think about skiing.

I can honestly say that skiing occupies my mind 98% of the time in the winter/fall. This season in Whistler when I had a girl in bed I was actually thinking "damn, skiing pow is so much better than this"(true story). Ok, it wasn´t exactly Jessica Alba, she was actually quite hideous, but during season skiing is pretty much the only thing I care about. Now in the spring/summer it is more like 50%.

too much...every rail i see it just stand there and think about it and sick switch ups on it etc. the other day i just stopped and was staring at this rail. my friend was like uh what are you doing? she looked up and was like oh...skiing haha

but i would say as long as im not doing something that like calls for a lot of thought skiing comes into my mind.
