BradFiAusNzCoCaI was talking to a branch manager today in Boston area that takes off Fridays and skis the whole weekend + Friday. It’s doable


That’s what I would like to do with my job. Wouldn’t even have to do that, I could easily ski after work just like I do with school.

switchlip23 times a week is the sweet spot rn with school


Yeah it’s probably way harder since
youre not real close to anywhere. I’m lucky to be able to drive 40 mins to the hill whenever I want, and my campus only 30 mins away. Would be a bitch with homework but realistically I can ski any day of the week, it’s just not practical for me to do so on Wednesdays or Monday’s since I don’t get outta class til 530 and springs closes at 7. And they shut their
rope off an hour earlier than close time which is even more wack.

400 kilometers and 567 miles
interesting combination
LogiI’ve got 27 days so far and I go to public school and I have to trek 400 km to school and I live 567 miles from my local hill in Florida. That’s a lot of football fields

40s. Its been another cursed year for the kootenays. Xmas was intense deep, but now we got nothing. Touring has been productive finding powder holes.

I don’t keep track, but probably somewhere around 40. Between the mountain, touring, and the backyard I’ve been able to get boots on my feet quite a bit. It’s rare that I put in a full 8 hour day. I’m a half hour from Jay so I’ve been poppin over for some end of day turns

When I was living in Minnesota, I was 15 minutes away from the ski hill. I would make it up there 3-4 times a week. I just moved out to the SF Bay Area, and now I’m 3.5 hours away from skiing (Tahoe). I’ve only gotten a few days of skiing in so far this year. 😞😭 It’s just such a struggle waking up at 5:00 am and waisting 7+ hours of my day driving every time I want to go skiing. Need to come up with a solution to this problem. I definitely took living 15 minutes away from the ski hill for granted. Lol

32. As a dude progressing into my late 20s (28 almost 29), Im stoked to think I still get 50+ days a year.

Life gets hard and in the way of skiing, but only if you let it

Started 18th of October, dislocated two AC joints on different occasions, worked (remote whenever I feel like it) normal hours but still at 72 today. Hopefully 20+ days until the season ends at 8th of May.

heading to summit tomorrow for what will likely be the last 6 days of my season 😢, I bailed on probably 30 days worth this year, just felt “off” this year couldn’t find the stoke, had too many “busy” days that kept me away as well conditions sucked literally worldwide for most the year, we’re all owed a dope season next year I think

Yeah I got 3 days of evening skiing so far lmao. Work and classes eat up my weekdays, and even if I had more free time I still wouldn't be able to afford it. Despite that, it's probably been my best year for progression so far. I learned how to 270 on hips, then learned 360s and surface 360s both ways and got a couple sketchy 270s off rails. Pretty stoked, hopefully I can dedicate a lot of time to skiing next year and get even better
