ginj.nigcork 7 and flat spin what one should I try first
SenBilverglateMy main goal for next season is to go faster and do simpler tricks more consistently.
What are other peoples goals for next season?
DeebieSkeebiesgetting kids stoked and turned into ski machines
BigPurpleSkiSuit3. List of Lines: Broom Closet, skiers right; High Speed Double; Death Chute; Forbidden Zone Straight line; Flux Capacitor; Single the hanging bowl double
BigPurpleSkiSuit8. Find a cute skier girl who rips to ski with, problem is they all ski at Alta
BigPurpleSkiSuit10. MOST IMPORTANTLY: REDEMPTION ON THE FUCKING SWITCH POND SKIM. THE REVOLUTION IS COMING AND IT WILL BE TELEVISED
ShadowXVXBeat @BigPurpleSkiSuit and @AbiH (and anyone else who wants to play) in a game of GNAR
Broom Closet left
Corbet's and S&S if I get to Jackson
Some new Forbidden Zone lines
Atonement on some lines I've crashed
FWQ comp if they do one at Snowbird
The spine in Get Serious between Door 2 and Door 2.5
Death Center, I've done it lots of times but it's been too long and it's one of my favorites
Lots of other lines, this post would be way too long if I listed them all
Schmidiots and McConkeys High Line if I get to Squaw, but I doubt I'll get there next winter. Eventually I will. Schmidiots has been top of my list for like a decade.
I'll do all these with you
Based and true
Extremely based, especially if you 180 it. Straight switch is cool too though

SenBilverglateAs a Midwest park rat, I have literally no idea what half of that meant 😂

BigPurpleSkiSuitIf
we're doing gnar it's on a day with some good condish. As much as I'd
like to think I'd be fine doing the icy chunder straightlines in no vis,
I'd hate to find out that I couldn't.

nmwninjartI am also lost on those terms and places. 😂
ShadowXVXPlease do, it's gonna be lots of fun. I live in Minnesota but I'll be out there for probably a few months next winter
All day every day ;) If you won't do the straightlines you can make up the points with tricks or something, remember I've never even attempted a 3 lol
Various chutes and cliffs that I've been wanting to do for a long time. Corbets and S&S are famous lines at Jackson Hole, Broom Closet and Get Serious and Death Chute and Forbidden Zone are lines/areas at Snowbird, McConkeys and Schmidiots are lines at Squaw Valley. Here's a pic of a guy skiing Schmidiots: https://i.imgur.com/IGF76m7.jpg

BigPurpleSkiSuitSchmidiots and S&S look like insanity to me
ShadowXVXS&S is pretty straightforward, just a regular ~25 foot air, only tricky part is you have to turn 90 degrees in the air, but there's plenty of hang time for that.
Schmidiots looks almost unskiable in some pics, but in other pics it looks very easy. Partly based on snow level and partly just based on where the pic is taken from. Here's a pic looking down Schmidiots, maybe higher snow than the other pic I posted, but looks easy in this pic: https://i.imgur.com/JPxKL3N.jpg
In the other Schmidiots pic I linked it does look a lot more difficult. It was either that pic or a very similar pic that I saw many years ago, back when I had only skied in mountains a handful of times, that I became obsessed with that line. It's been top of my list ever since. I was not even remotely good enough to consider it back then but now I feel pretty ready for it.

BigPurpleSkiSuitBut with S&S if you crash on that landing, good chance you're hitting the rock wall

ShadowXVXThat's the fun part ;)
armchair_skierI didn’t think S&S was open to the public
ShadowXVXI've only skied Jackson once and that was over a decade ago when I had only skied in the mountains a few times in my life, so I don't know for sure. To my understanding Ski Patrol wants to be informed before anyone skis it so they can be ready with a toboggan, and I also heard that they make people sign a waiver before skiing S&S. Not sure if any of that is true, just what I've heard online.
