Nice man, have a good time! PC is a sick place and the forecast is looking good, sun then snow later in the week. Keep your eyes open and I'm sure you will see some people killing it that you recognize.

Have fun dude. Just go out there with a smile on your face. I just went for my last time ever, around this time last year. Shred it for me.

So lucky! I went to park city last year for half a day and it was one of the coolest experiences of my life. So much fun and great atmosphere. Have fun!

Since when is being stoked for a sick ski trip and hopefully wanting to catch a glimpse of one of your favorite riders throwing down considered being a pro hoe? Anyways, Have a killer time here. The parks are looking good right now. Storms in the forecast so be on the lookout for fresh snow. Other than that, Have a good time and enjoy yourself. PC is an awesome place and I am stoked to call it my home mountain.

I think I saw Tom Wallisch, or at least someone with his promodel boot! I was looking around all day for Henrik but I didnt see him. I saw Matt Pothier standing, eating a delicious looking Cobra Dog. So I bought one too. MOST DELICIOUS THING EVER!

when I went to PC i couldnt find anything but cat tracks... So the rest of the trip I just skied Canyons. I would recomend Canyons over pc by a ton. Im not sure if I just couldnt find anything but it seemed really really flat

You couldn't find the park? Its probably the easiest thing to find and get to on the whole mountain.

If you're wondering Henrik and Wallisch will probably be out there. When I was there Wallisch was there 2 days and Henrik 4.

I ski Breck 3-4 days a week so I took like two laps through the park. I wanted to find some gnarly terrain, because breck doesnt have anything you can scare yourself with, I went up McConkeys twice but the conditions were pretty bad. Super wet powder with a two inch layer of crust on top.

There wasn't very many good pow days last year at PC so I would believe that. This year has been waaaay different. I've gotten at least 4 to 5 full days of pow shredding in some amazing dry pow. And even when its all skied out, the cruddies are hella fun to rip. It should be good for when you're here.

Wallisch is there all the time he used to live right next to me before moving down the road a bit. I see him or his car heading up frequently.

Im in Park City weekend after next (22nd) - when Sundance is on - anyone about? Im with some hollywood peeps who are friends, and they're shit skiiers...   they're there for the movies, im there to hang with them (attend various partys etc) and shred... so if anyone is about and up for cruising about having some fun, let me know... it's also my first time in PC (and Utah) so any local kids fancy showing me around....

I actually arrive on Thurs (20th) night, and am planning on staying somewhere in South Lake, and going to Brighton or Sol on the Fri - if anyone is about? Im with a friend who is a total noob, so he will go for a lesson or some shit and i'll be cruising on my own - just me and my ipod....

Well - I should have the hook up on all the main parties.....staying at a rented house in the middle of PC with a very big Hwood Producer/actress (her bf is one of my best friends and she's hooking us up)....      but i'll be cruising the hill during the days.  Look for a kid with steeze, and a couple of gapers....  that'll be me (the steezy one... ha). Then come rescue me.... and we can go for a shred

I have never really seen a pro rider in action before. Watching edits are one thing but being able to see someone in person makes it that much better. Hopefully if i go to hood this spring or summer i can witness someone throw down to get my stoke up.
