In honor of the US census, I have decided to conduct an NS census as I have always been curious of the  different backgrounds of people on this site. After a long delitberation process (the length of my shower) I have decided that it would be totally rad if you kind members of the freesking community could list the following info

age
years NORMAL skiing
years FREESTYLE skiing
years on NS
home state (province, country or planet if outside us)
home mountain
skis
best trick








I think that this info would give a good snapshot of the ns community
My info

age 19
11 years skiing
2 years freestyle skiing
1 year on ns
Connecticut
Okemo (drive up every weekend from uconn)
last years salomon 1080's
360 (yeah i am a noob)

thank you and god bless
