I was doing good, enjoying summer and all its goodness. Then I saw a few ski movie trailers and a couple pics from last season and now I want it! I want it back! Only 134 more days until my mountain opens back up! Dammit winter, come back. It was such a good year

Sure I miss winter but ski movies are dropping soon and those should hold me until it starts snowing and I can get out and film some urban.

Skiing my set up today is fun, but not anything like skiing in the winter. It also is about 95 right now, so that's a lot of fun.

I've been missing it for weeks. Actually don't know if I ever stopped winter mode. Been building setups in sketchup and thinking about different contests to get ready for next season.


Winter come back!

Of course but i'm also really enjoying my summer so it's not anything that brings me down.

So you could say yeah...but not really.

I do miss it but I'm really enjoying all the things you can't do in winter right now. Plus summer setups are perfect for rail progression.

Basically this. Summer is time for fucking around, not doing anything, and having fun. Winter is time for skiing.

During winter, I never want it to end. During summer, I never want it to end. Kinda depends what season I'm in.

I dont think I can go five minutes without thinking about skiing. Especially since I have to work a lot and I can't go and do things that take my mind off of it.

I wish summer lasted only three months and then went straight into 9 months of winter.

At least I only have to wait till october.

It hit me really hard the other day. Had like nam-like flashbacks only filled with pow. It was nuts. But yeah, closing day at PCMR made me sad.

can't really say I miss it. personally I enjoy not freezing my ass off on a judges stand in the middle of February. sure skiing is fun and whatnot but summer offers a nice break.

personally, I'll take women in biknis, sundresses, and other forms of small pieces of clothing over skiwear anytime. plus patios and cold beer in the summer beats sitting inside anyday.

now spring skiing...that's where it's at. I can remember a trip to Tremblant at Easter one year and it was 30 degrees (C) during the day. best of both worlds, skiing, patios, scantilly clad women and cold beers!

I try not to think about it. I'll workout, hit the summer set up, slackline, skate, waterramp to ease the withdrawal a tad.

But its so fucking hot and humid I end up spending more time indoors with AC in the summer than I do in the winter.

I am but I'm about to start building a real nice summer jib setup so that should hold me over until I can start hitting Liberty Snowflex and that should hold me over until the winter arrives.

miss it so much but im stoked for the fall, its when all the movies come out, it get colder, you see the first snow flake of the season and finally a hill opens 1 run with 1 rail, a crowd shows up for the beauty of the first ski day of the year. Its beautiful!
