With permission, I have taken this idea from another cult. I think it would be great here.

This is a thread to post what you are totally stoked on. Share with us your happiness.  :)

This is kinda bitter sweet since its such a daunting transition, but I graduate from college in a week.

The busy schedule with finals and bullshit has eaten a lot of my time (big reason why I haven't been on here in awhile), but it'll be nice to be done with it.

I got to go out and shred some pow on the on3p's today, it was sick!  There was probably 6" or so of new, but up high where it hadn't been tracked we were finding quite a bit of stuff that was knee deep or so.  It was really, really nice to get on some chairlifts for a change, despite the fact that it was probably at least 20 below up top.

Also, I experienced one of the greatest feats of awesomeness ever performed yesterday.  I was supposed to meet a girl at a friend's house to smoke hookah and drink some nice tall boys, and we were just heading back to the house when she asked me where we were.  I replied (this is in a text) "en route."  Her response:  "lol wheres that?"  I had started feeling kind of bad about how quickly my friendships with girls come and go, but I think this sufficiently justified it--and then some.  Now I am left with a serious dilemma:  Do I go with my instinct and avoid her like unintelligence is contagious, or do I keep hanging out with her until I tire of laughs at her expense?

Yeah, she's way hot.  And I am kind of a haughty asshole.

I suppose it was more of a rhetorical question.

Pretty stoked on the skiing/snowboarding I did at EV today. I've never skied such good champaign powder in Quebec but there was a fair base about waist deep with the turns at about knee deep, Skied some closed runs all day without any hassles from patrol, and teed up some pretty sweet pillow lines for our 900ft of vertical. (and that's generous...)

BTW nice article Rogge didn't peg you for only 23 years young lol

Ya I was surprised I couldn't find anyone that wanted to/could go down. Did the drive all by my lonesome. Wasn't too bad though. 2h 15 on the way down, 2h flat coming back.

How cold was it on hill? I was supposed to go to whistler tomorrow for a few days which is why I passed on baker, but now that's off so I should've gone. I haven't been to baker in like 2 years either. Pretty good there? No opening day base damage?

NS uploader is finally back working, so new edit: https://newschoolers.com/web/content/videos/id/231044/cat/top/

and skied my ON3Ps again today, so fun, actually took them in the park for the second half of the day when it was skied out. so much fun, presses are way easier with the rocker, jumps felt alright as well despite the size of the ski.

Not cold really. Don't really know the temp, but I'd guess it at -10ish? Nothing compared to -22 yesterday at Whis. And yes, VERY good there. And yes, opening day base damage. Dime sized deep coreshot on the Wrenegades. Right smack in the middle of the ski though, so it should be easy to fix. Other than that, just minor scrapes and scratches. The ON3Ps held up very well, that stump/rock I landed on would have done major damage to pretty much any ski out there (maybe not ARGs/JJs with the super slow/hard bases). Lots of other stuff I thought would do damage but escaped with hardly anything at all.

I would still go to Baker both tomorrow or tuesday because there is still tons of snow left. Was still skiing fresh tracks at 2pm. And while it is supposed to be cold the next 2 days, it will probably be warmer than Whistler. And everything up there (apart from the Glacier) is a skating rink.

That's sick. Yeah I figured as much about w/b. I had my lines all sharp and waxed ready for tomorrow, but I no longer have a couch to crash on and sleeping in my car at -25 sounds like not so much fun, and certainly not worth it for the skiing I'd be doing (if I didn't freeze to death after 2 runs). Tuesday or wednesday might be worth doing down in wawa land, let me know if you're going, one of those days there's supposed to be a small uptick in the temps to 5 or so around here. Dunno about down there, but I imagine something similar.

I'm going out backcountry skiing tomorrow, which means I get to break in the new camera setup for skiing!  I'll get some pictures up tomorrow evening if I get time and if it isn't too cold to want to shoot.

nothing too exciting haha just a kona coiler. Hardly been used though cause the guy got into mx pretty soon after buying it. I'm looking forward to getting it though, it'll be my first fully. probably swap the triples for a single crown fork at some point in the near future and maybe upgrade the shock to something more newer too. Have to get rid of my old bike first though. Sad to see that go, it was the first bike I'd ever put together myself haha

page!

haha, I got one!

Stoked on a fucking good weekend. Best in a long time. Friday night with the lady friend, saw Madagascar 2 which is hilarious (yes, I am a kid), rest of the night was...uh..fun. Saturday, got up and skied Blackcomb all day in the freezing cold, but pretty decent snow. Sunday, woke up to 4" outside my house, but convinced the mom that the solo drive to Baker wouldn't be a problem. Ridiculous day, skiing pow, in the sun. Back home, awesome family dinner, Canucks won, and went to the lady friend's place again for a bath and foot rub. Not a bad way to end a weekend of skiing! Went through a lot of gas in 2 days, and 590km, but it was worth it.

The fact that you provide no details on this long trip makes me suspicious. I will therefore assume that you drove to the states to dispose of a corpse.

Hahahahaha I've had the same thing. Except it was 2 of us on the way to WA state in a big cargo van full of duffle bags (which had ski clothing belonging to people we were meeting, blankets and other stuff in them) and 3 buckets of sand. 2 shady unshaven guys going through the border in a cargo van full of duffle bags and buckets... what's in the buckets? "Uhhh... Sand."

Yeah we were there for a bit.
