Is it all about freeriding on a powder day and hitting the park when the conditions aren't so good? Is that what skiing is all about? or are you a fully dedicated Park Monkey?????

I'm not a full park skier.

I shred all-mountain... usually the hit the park more in the spring when conditions aren't as ideal. During the winter I prefer being a powder-hound... but still hit the park a few times before I finish the day.

If im around when theres snow, i ski woods and whatever else there is depending on where i am. If there isnt any snowfall when im there, which is about 100 days out of 110, i go to the park.

Ski is all about the big mountain and cliffs. Park is just an off shoot from what skiiing realy is.

But the truth of the matter is that its all fucking great!!!!
