NA SERVUS

The ski season has been dope so far even with 46 consecutive days of no precipitation. Glacier skiing's been sick in Kaunertal and Stubai. Who else is gettin' some? I want to see some stoke for this season.

I've never been there to ski but I watched the Red Bull Playstreets there last year. Cool town, and the ski terrain looked good too.

Glad to know I'm not the only NSer in this country, haha.


Yeah the snow's been staying so good! The pow in the trees has been amazing for like three weeks straight. A little windblown up higher though.

Had one of the deepest days of my life at Schlick 2000 a few days ago. If anyone in IBK ever wants to blast Schlick with me on a pow day, let me know, I'm starting to find my way around there pretty well.

In other news, I just rebuilt the park at Stubai. It's small but fun and the two medium kickers are mellow and good for learning tricks.

Stubai park looks like this right now:
2 8-meter kickers
3-box line (up box, flat box, flat-down)
2 rails (flat tube, down-flat-down tank)
Beginner kicker line (three 6-meter kickers)
