I dont know, maybe I have had terrible timing this year, but i havent gotten a legit pow day all season. Does anyone else share my pain? Should I even buy pow skis for this year or just get some park skis?

Its certainly tough work to time pow days...some years they come and others not so much.

Hold strong, Dec/Jan is not as snowy as March.

Plenty more deep days to come.

I've had 3, but if I was more dedicated I could have had many more.  One of those was a surprise at Breck, probably the best day I ever had!  I was amazed because I almost brought my park skis, but the park was closed because there were 10 new inches on top of about 2 feet.

But ya this year has been  a bunch of small storms and not too many big ones.

I live in breckenridge and Ive only had 3 legit Pow days, so don't feel bad...

Just a shitty season... But most of Feb and all of March still await us! Pray for snow!!!
