What's up Newschoolers! Figured while I'm MOTM I'd start a trend. While I dont ski as well as Sammy C, I will actually answer your questions. This thread will be for all future members of the month as well when they're member of the month.

Ask away, I love you all!

r00kieFavorite mountain?


hmm probably Hood, Jackson, or Bird.

I really like the vibe in hood but the terrain isn't my favorite compared to Jackson and snowbird. The two times I've been to Jackson I had great snow so that's a plus, and there is such great bc skiing there, too. Snowbird is just a super fun mountain, I hope to get out there again soon.

I will create a whole new college, called Newschoolers School of Scholarly Skiing, and will provide the second greatest education in the general vicinity of the school.

Ptarmigan because I rode up a chairlift with one once. /claim

It flew up to the chair at a low spot and was too big a pussy to jump off later. He was making a lot of noise.

Hmm, I don't know if I can choose one! For freeride probably Sammy C or Tim Durtschi. I also really like Chris Bentchetler.

For park either Antti or AHall

I qualified for a Noram race, and I was going to go, but I tore my Achilles the day before. I did junior nationals and most other races though.
