I knew I should have left a pair of skis in MN... Blasted. I was just planning on foam pitting all week. If only I had known.

Unless of course you know someone with a pair of skis set to 285/Youth size 5 boot sole length...I have small feet.

Hit up mad town twisters in madison. Two olympic trampolines, foam pit, throw pads, skatepark with foam pit jump. Place kicks ass.

Check out Viking Ski shop for sure. Also, the Burton store is pretty sick even though I'm not into snowboarding. The store layout is pretty cool.
