No, I'm asking if I was understanding it right, which I implied when I said "Is that all sounding right?".  I could have also said "Is that correct?" or "Do I understand that all correctly because I have not been up lately and am curious as to what has changed?"

Anybody been to Hood Meadows lately?

sick!  I'll use my pipe cleaners tomorrow...

is this in the pro line spots from last year?  Last time I was up there was the waterfall and two jumps on the outer edge of the upper park...which had a great takeoff and were well made jumps, but were only like 4 feet to the knuckles...

FML you meant Hood didn't you? I got overly excited*shattered happyness*

If it snows a decent amount at Hood this week I might go with the Lotuses and Pipe Cleaners.  Thanks for the update.

yeah i did mean hood. definatly don't make the journy for the park because it isn't that great.

went up (to summit) they made the jumps way less poppy, got rid of the rainbow box, moved the upper jibs around a bit, and put in a jib line to the right of the pipe.

it was icy at 9 in the morning on the upper face and just got worse and worse as the day went on.

talked to krush and k turner after jib this and it sounds like we may get a couple other comps this year. he mentioned something about a pipe comp and something towards the end of the year after pretzels and polish donuts. (maybe kinko de mayo)

yes i did mean hood. parks not worth making the trip out to but if it snows it is. ( i got first chair after it snowed 8 inches and was bluebird   claim*) 

went up today, jumps are way less poppy, they got rid of the rainbow, moved things around in the upper park, and there is now a jib line to the right of the halfpipe

its getting super icy up there eventually just stopped and watched jib this.

talked to krush and k turner after jib this and they said that they are trying to get skiers into some comps, krush mentioned a pipe comp and a later season one after p and pd

You're leaving as we have the first storm in over a month coming.  Meadows has a decent forecast too though.

Anybody see my waterfall 1.5 backflip->concussion landing?
I'll get it on friday if I go up.  I want oxy.

DOT is doin maintenance today so expect lane closures.  Traffic is reduced to one lane of alternating traffic.  This is supposed to go on until noon-ish.

It rained last night and its raining again. Fuck you warming trends. Today was 1-2 inch of rain crust on top of soft snow. Fun to ski after it was broken up. I expect tomorrow to be similar. Unless it rains more tonight than last night, which seems very possible~

Oh come on that was about 1 cm of rain crust up top and 1/2 cm rain crust down below. Certainly having the right equipment helped today but I had a great time, I even got a couple face shots. There was some truly great snow in place (and some not so good snow elsewhere).

Oh it was fun just like I said, but the rain crust was definitely thicker than 1 cm in many spots~
