Titus69Ive already met him on here before since he parks at my local mountain along his delivery route and i mentioned i ski there in a thread and he replied about a time he saw me setting up rails. He said he parks there on the lift and I instantly knew. I imagine Ive met many but didnt know it.


Now that you mention it, I've probably met a lot of people from here and just never knew it. Maybe next time I'll just ask, can't hurt. Chairlift rides aren't that long if they start looking at me like I grew an extra head if they have no clue what I'm talking about.

SkierBetchAww, I hope I meet some of the NS crew this season. That would be so cool!


I have seen quite a few NS stickers but never say anything. Mostly because I snowboard and they would look at me weird and also because I like to keep my internet life seperate from real life. I don't need my real friends to know I'm a nerd and talk to people online whom I don't know.

Man, I really don't understand this mentality. I'm friends with NS'ers that snowboard, and meeting NS people in real life has had a huge positive impact.

Got my roommates in Bozeman through NS, got my first roommate in Driggs through NS, met some of my closest friends through NS, got my first ski job because of NS, had my romantic interest pop up sort of because NS.

Don't be too cool to own who you are. Talking to people on the internet is not that weird. And if you're embarrassed to have your "real" friends know you're on NS then I'd say they sound like sort of crappy friends.

Feeling the same way in the poor choice department as of late. But... You know, life keeps on moving, so should we. Sometimes the absolute shittiest choices I've thought I made (at the time) turned out to be the smartest and most beneficial if that helps.

So I guess if anyone is around the Squaw/Alpine/Boreal area this week, I'll be around. Just trying to goof off in the most careful way cus apparently "2-3 weeks wait" means a month when it comes to knee braces.

coming to terms with being a mediocre park skier when you realize nearly 90% of all locals ripping the three kings jump lines @ PC are damn good, but floaty shifty threes are the most fun.

I would much rather psych myself out hitting cliffs and shredding lines than park. Just simple but fun tricks. I greased some tight-ass 180 taps on the 8ball feature which felt dope.




My mom and dad wanna move to tahoe and im all like please do. Id love to ski squallywood/kirkwood, etc without having to find a hotel room lol

If it helps, I wouldn't say that type of situation is worth it when you're young. Part of a relationship is accepting you won't agree on everything, if she's not going to let you have your own beliefs, fuck it, you can find another girl who sees in more than just black and white.
My ex was crazy super republican and I'm pretty neutral, I like policies from both sides, I just don't go around broadcasting my beliefs or putting down the other side. His line was "we just don't share the same beliefs" which means "you're not Christian or Conservative enough for me" which is better to know and let it go than have to deal with bickering over politics. I see enough of that shit on the news for free!


Also, I finally got my knee brace today! Seriously worth the wait and being extra careful, it's soooo nice. Figuratively dying over how extra supportive it feels.

24 inches of snow? We can pound it out, let's stay open.

.15" of freezing rain? Hooooooly shit, let's cancel three days of school during final exams, call the red Cross, call the pope!

I mean, driving on ice is 100 times more dangerous than any amount of snow. It kind of makes sense.
