So incase you didn't know Killington and Mount Snow are open this weekend. I am defiantly going to one just can't decide. Killington has a shit ton more snow and some more runs. They are making thr park tonight and they say they will have at least 4 features maybe more. Mount Snow made thr park today (launch pad rail jam) thrs a lift and all. 15 features more to come an a small probs like 10 or 15 ft kicker. I've talked to some of my friends just want to know which one you guys are going to or would go to. if you want pics you can check out the respected Facebook pages. Thanks.

4 features isn't enough if a lot of people are going to be there opening day. I'd say Mount Snow just so there's more variety and everyone's not trying to use them same 4 things

I'm going to killy. I've never hit the launch pad, always looks like a shit show. Killy has had 3 or 4 features for the past few years and I think it flows much better, even with the million kids there.

I'm going to snow. Don't want to pay the 40 bucks for a couple trails, and mount snow is 10 bucks and all profits go to hurricane sandy relief

If you go to Killington and bring a friend you can get a buy one get one free ticket(link: http://www.killington.com/winter/2for1/2for1-skimag-2013/) and then split up the cost of the one ticket which comes out to like $15 + you can ski Saturday and Sunday(another $15) with a shit ton of snow still.......I'd go with Killington. Also there is like 1 or 2 hotels around 10 minutes from the mountain that are insanely cheap ($40 dollars a night + breakfast + a friend = $20 per person)

I'll be up Saturday and Sunday with a gaper friend (what ever he's still fun to hang out with) I'll probably have a black bloom jacket with purple Saga pants it's gonna be a fun weekend

I think NSers should do a better job at mobbing up in real life. Get together and shred, introduce yourselves.

Hell take a shot of a group of NSers killing a rail and post it. That would be sweet.

There needs to be way more sense of on-hill community between fellow NSers. That would be really awesome.

I might be going to Mount Snow tomorrow too, I'll be the kid sucking dick on everything because I switched to skiing last winter after snowboarding for forever. So I'll be the one not hitting anything that's urban haha.


Holla @ me if you want, I'll be shredding with some friends, we're taking the drive from CT. Just a heads up I kinda suck at rails

Hell yes. We used to do more for it too... maybe we should start again.

I think the biggest problem is this specific scenario:

Doug Bishop: Hey man, hows it going?

Skier guy that looks like an NSer: Good dude, how about you?

Doug Bishop: Sweet. Today is sick. Hey... you go on NS perchance?

Skier guy that looks like an NSer: Yeah man, that place is sweet.

Doug Bishop: Oh cool..... so whats your username?

At that last comment all of a sudden shit gets:

I think we just need to be proud of our usernames... or all change our usernames to our real names. I feel like a fucking idiot saying "I'm Mr.Bishop". Its funny on the internet, but comes off as condescending in real life.

Honestly having a non original username is not all its made out to be. People ask who i am and I have to be like Andrew, and then day dotAndrewdot cause thats how fucking orignal I am. Not that anybody likes to meet me anyways and its much better then being someone like tammywallnuts69.
