Like 2016 as Dobber... the man, the myth, the legend. Cheated on member of the month and won that shit.Then Matt Kretschmar banned me and bullied me at our local hill even though I was 16 and he was like 23 which was pretty lame.

I joined in 2012, although I started skiing in 1999 so I joined really late. Now I can't access my account for some reason so I'm posting on this account. Anger.

Found this site when I was on insta killing time due to a knee injury in 2019 and decided to make an account. Crazy I didnt find it sooner but I have been around before the internet and can function with out it. Have met some super cool people from here and I hope to keep meeting more. Always good to log in and catch a laugh from a post or get some advice on certain things specific to our sport. This is the only true ski site there is, everyone on here I consider part of my fam. We are the real skiers.

I joined in 2012 but knew about NS since about 2007. I created the account and let is sit for a few years then picked it up again. NS is actually way more interesting and chill than it was back then- it used to be 95% reddit rehashes and shitposting. Now its more cool stories and discussions which im down on.

Ayyy 2008. Now I only log on once every few months after drinking more than I probably should. NSG seems boring and filled with a bunch of children who think they’re good trolls now, but I guess maybe I’m just old. I don’t even think I’ve been skiing in like 3 years lol. Was planning to take my daughter out to learn this year but not sure that will happen with COVID, soo yeah. Is XL Saga gear still cool when you’re dragging a toddler around the bunny hill?

I believe it was the guys in the PPP Cult. I made mine in MS Paint pixel by pixel in my High School library haha. Most "artistic" thing I've probably every done.
