I really am a skier

And today I just got this rush, and panic attack....

7 months until I ski again. It has been a month now, and I'm hurting hard. Ever since I started on NS, being a part of such a tight community has been so sick, and my need to be out on the slopes has really intensified.

Anyone else done their season/planning for next year/missing the snow?

Ehh, that panic attack has been hurtin too. The feeling that you can't go out and ski whenever. I'm going to MHSSC this summer and plan on a building a summer setup.

First few days after my season ended- "oh maybe this won't be so bad"

One week later- "...fuck" (whilst staring longingly at my skis in my room).

It was my first season skiing (I had boarded up until this year)

At first at the end of the season, I thought, well, at least my feet won't hurt anymore! (Switching snowboard to ski boots sucks)

Now, I don't care if my feet hurt, I miss it. I learned how to slide a box this year, on my first day skiing park ever. It was the best feeling ever.

I can't wait till next winter, I wanna progress!



But I am going to Tuckerman's soon, but I'll prolly board there because 5 days of skiing this winter really isn't enough to get me prepared for Tuck's haha

I spent six hours yesterday watching ski movies after school. Today I tuned both my skis, tomorrow I'm going to buy some tall t's. Friday I'm watching more ski movies. Saturday I'm working then going to do tramp at a friends house. Sunday I'm starting to build my summer set up. Summer sucks.

Solution:

Step 1: Road trip to hood

Step 2: Camp at airstrip for free

Step 3: Buy ticket to timberline (or clip from racers coming off hill if you are feeling dangerous)

Step 4: SKI!

pretty much the same here in Aus, as soon as it gets colder (and people start complaining about it being below 20 degrees in the cities) snow minded people start getting a buzz. Time to rip out those Level 1 and PBP dvd's over the next month or so

bahaha, panic attack from not skiing? either harden the fuck up or pick up a summer hobby. i mean you cannot be serious. if you loved skiing that much you'd find a way to ski year round, which is possible for anyone if you truly loved it to the point of having trouble functioning without it. yes you may be a skier, but i think you're just a bigger pussy... or a liar... or both.

no, just pointing out the fact that this thread is a complete joke and doesn't really represent skiers but rather young kids who love to exaggerate.
