So I'm a freshman at Loyola Marymount University in LA and I'm looking for some skier buds to go up to the mountain with/chill with on campus or in the city. I've found some snowboarders and gaper skiers but no park skiers yet. i've been wearing jiberish a lot in an attempt to find some, but no luck yet. hit me up in a PM or something if you're down here

I am over at USC right now and I'll be up at Bear Mountain all this winter.  Any idea where you are going to be skiing? (I was on the USC Ski Team the last 2 winters, but am taking a year off from the huge drive up to Mammoth.)

I go to CoC and I ski Mt High. I suck at park but it doesn't stop me from wrecking myself on all of Mt High's ridiculous boxes all day anyway. I usually get 2-3 days up there a week.

So few park skiers at Mt. High you can pretty much say whatup to anyone and there is a good chance they are on NS.

I live in long beach and ride bear. You know how it's overrun with boarders so that'd be chill to ride with some NSers. I've been riding park for 2 seasons so I'm def lookin for homies to help me progress. Get at me

I actually made it up yesterday after a late night text that gave me the info.  Pretty nice at summit with about 8 features and they let me use my bear pass.  Good stuff.  Highly recommended early season visit.

On the main run they had:
1. Really wide flat box fully in the snow.
2. Corrugated tube
3. Short Shotgun Rail
4. Mid-Length down rail (Best feature there)
5. A REALLY small A frame type jib
6. A flat box.
7. A trapezoid box with a very mellow slope.

The park crew was maintaining the features all day.

The learning run had 3 very short flat boxes in a row.

Hope that helps!

I'm down to carpool if you pass by where the 5 hits the 14. I'm not sure if you do but if you do I live right at that interchange I'd be down to switch off driving from there. PM me if that is the way you go.
