Anyone else go to UT? I know of one other person now who does...
Plus, if you do, is there a ski team/club oriented toward park or just a general ski club? Not just about racing.

i haven't yet. i'm a freshmen, but i'm prolly gonna bring my skis up either this weekend or after thanksgiving. but right now i've got like 3 ledge's and a couple of bomb drops lined up. I'm here with one other skier i know from back home. and i'm thinkin some of my friends from back home might roll up sometime to hit some of them up.

idk what campus police will say tho cuz i've seen some bmx kids hitting stuff up, and i'm thinkin as long as we aren't a problem they won't care. at least for the out of the way rails. idk so much about the stadium rails tho...

the stadium rails are sick and there are some kind of by there. By the tennis courts on the stadium side, by the bridge to the library. There is a longgggg ass C rail and a sick kink. Its well lit so can roll it at night. both have good lead ins for pulls by people or bikes. Stadium rails are a little more risky with campus police, but have a natural lead in. But I think they thought of bikes, boards and skis when designing rails/stairs here. There are a ton.

yeah. this kid on the 11th wants to set up a jump so we could either slide the bridge, or slide some and drop.

but i look at that kink every day i walk to class, and same with the c-rail. i've also seen a crazy lookin maybe quad kink in front of a school around here.

i've heard that it's like 80 for the room, but you have to get your own lift tickets, and transportation.
idk if i wanna join them tho, that and it's over winter break so skiing in vermont is gonna be cold as shit...
i'd much rather go during spring break tho.
