York is an interesting place.  But do be careful.  Girls get raped and people get robbed and stabbed.  But you ll prob be okay.  Im in 3rd year though it doesnt reflect my age.

so far my experiences have indicated not so much .....i went to york fest with a $3500 camera and walked back at 1am with it holding it out in the open....and everytime ive been on the campus late its been nice...maybe its the area more around campus giving it a bad name....i dunno (knock on wood)

what program are you in?

^York usually doesn't have too many problems, but keep in mind the neighbourhoods that are a 5 min walk away.  The  shitheads from driftwood and shoreham know university kids = ipods/laptops/cphones...etc.. easy pickings for street robberies.

Agreed, Mac is pretty terrible for rail selection. All the good rails in the Hamilton area are in Dundas. And Mike, good to see you back on NS.

one of my friends back in grade 9 was in the jane and finch area (i think thats where york university is).  he was walking alone around 1-2 and he got mugged by a bunch of 20-25 year olds.  They apparently slapped him in the face then held him down while they took his wallet and cellphone.  Scary stuff. 

I visited Wilfrid laurier and waterloo in the summer, they have some pretty sick hittable rails too.

I'm definitely down to murdaaaaaa handrails this year. I've got one in mind between College and Dundas on Ossington. No bungee required, but it would be good to link up with some homies who have a bungee.

Correct, It is beast like. its a DFDFDFD with little gaps about 4 inches apart every DFD which makes it almost unhittable for skiers. There was definatley some wear on it though from snowboarders.

Hopefully someone still reads this thread... I created a similar one before I found this one
I'm first year (but spent a year at another school last year, so I'm 19) in BFA film production, living at winters and hoping to ski louis and blue and beaver valley this year. Anyone still around that's skiing?
