The temperatures are dipping as we are only a few long weeks away from opening weekend at some resorts.

My goals are to finally get fat butters like Max Hill as well as master switch carving.

So NS what are your goals for this season? Also update us as the season progresses to how you are doing with your goals. Enjoy the Gnar fellow NSers

Get my switch rail tricks back (both ways), get my cork 5's to not look like ass, learn switch 5's. Other than that, get some different grabs with my spins. Got octo a few times last season, would like to get that dialed in.

Also shred some new mountains with some homies and meet a bunch of new people.

THEDIRTYBUBBLEIm focusing on style. I want to be that guy who hauls through the park at absurd speed. I want to tap rails so hard, I go through a pair of skis every month (ok maybe not that hard cause I'm broke). I just want to ski super fast, and super aggressive. I want to keep it super smooth at the same time. I have finally discovered that this is the style for me, I just need to perfect it. Through trial and error I have discovered:

1. I look bad without poles.
2. I should not wear skinny pants. Ever.
3. I'm not one for butters/tailpresses.
4. I'm not one for swapping on rails.


this, and throw my first cork 3

I'm gonna try to wear my shirt while skiing more than last year.

I'm gonna try to keep my thigh zips closed a little more.

Basically all my goals are modesty based.

First year skiing, coming from snowboarding. Played around on ski blades a ton in the past and used to ski, so I have a feel for it. My goals are to get 10+ days and get front and back 2's, maybe front swaps

Skiers who come from snowboarding can get really good really fast. Get more than ten days in.

I've played around on ski blades on my backyard rail and practically had front twos and nollie front twos. I wish I switched sooner, I honestly feel so much more comfortable and capable on skis... Progression feels much faster. I want to get as many days as possible but I don't know when the mountain will open, and I'm working full time so I don't know how often I'll be able to go, unfortunately
