It was close to -30C today and 10 year olds were out skiing... I really don't think 0F is that bad.

...or skiing in the West. I remember several days in the past five years when Schweitzer has had reported windchills at -35 and -67, and I've been skiing.

The lowest natural temperature ever recorded on Earth was -89.2 °C (-128.56 °F) on July 21, 1983.
i was actually skiing that day.. threw down the first double misty 12.. wish i had it on film.. now that bobby brown threw one on tv i'll have to wait for it to get that cold again.

I agree with you man... regardless of how cold it is where other people ski single digit temps are never fun.

i never ride park when its that cold. but i dont think ive ever had a day where its that cold and there ISNT fresh snow to be riding elsewhere.

if it is pretty cold and im riding park, i just start hiking features, keeps you nice and toasty

buy some real skiing clothes. Pipe gloves, a hoodie and 3 tall-t layered up are not skiing clothes.

 It's -30 here currently with windchills, and i'm waiting for my friends to come pick me up. yeah, we ski in the -30 and we are not freezing.

no no no. -30 without the windchill. like -45 or worse with the wind.

i dont care how many layers im wearing, thats still just not fun to me.
