Lip 2 is such a gross feeling trick, I did 3 today and none were clean. I learned them years ago but it’s one of those tricks that’s easy to lose if you stop doing them

I got smoked the very first time I ever tried lip 2 and I still hate them to this day
VTshredder69I hear ya on all that. Marked glades just become moguls after a few hours. I did a 'marked glades' trail at Jay that was just like a groomed trail with trees and it was fucking awful. Decided to avoid those the rest of the time.
SteezyYeeterngl, jay peak is overhyped. i skied there last month, and although they do have a lot of snow, it doesn't really do much. the terrain there doesn't require a lot of snow, and there wasn't a difference in quality between there and mrg (mrg is just less windblown). just using mrg as an example cus i been skiing there. if mrg gets a lot of snow though, it's very noticable as the terrain is extremely dynamic and the snow completely changes it, as well as opening up lots of lines that normally aren't there (jay has the ridge but it's not a whole lot of terrain)
spent a week there in january when they were getting snowed on nonstop, easily the best east coast skiing I've ever experienced in terms of sheer snow coverage
dognuttzwhat do you guys think is the easiest grab in a normal rotation spin
I was never a good park skier but tail / blunt were the only grabs i felt comfortable doing on a 3 because without it my rotation was trash. Something about pointing the tips towards the ground kept me honest.

The lake effect snow is no joke when it's churning. I've also been to Jay late Dec / early Jan when it's been raining.
191 sf110 is NOT a low speed jib ski. Took them in the mini park and got my ass handed to me. Now I really need a park ski. 191 is perfect but with only one day down still getting used to em. Lock in really nice to sw carves at -2.5 tc. My 184 was at -1 and super sick for swerving and silly things (seemed a whole lot softer too) but didn't carve that good either direction. Huge confidence boost with switch skiing chop on the long bois too. Fun fun.
Going to snoq this week, park there should be sick. Maybe finally grab blunt 3 and stop being chicken and do a backie on park jump @egirl.ski I hate flips but I'll try to try pinkie promise

smh bro just go straight for the double to really boost the confidence
as the oldest park rat left at my home hill, people tell me this even when I'm healthy
Dlonettiyou just land on it heavy and bruise it? or something else. i think i bruised a rib on saturday, trying to give it some time this week
I've bruised it many times, but this time it was more that my leg was bent in some horrible way on a bad landing. I guess it would be the opposite of hip hyperextension - hyperflexion? I either demolished my hip flexors, or my labrum, or both
Bruised rib would suck, imagine sneezing lol

Sounds lame, average age of our park crew is 30 so I'm slightly on the older end but plenty of people in their 30s still lapping the park every weekend and in the evenings.
Large group trips are always such a shitshow when it comes to the skiing..
Just did 4 days at Sugarloaf with 15 people. Even with similar skill levels, trying to keep the group together/happy is actually impossible. I "got lost" on the last day and just rode by myself for a few hours.
Awesome trip tho. Dope house, awesome snow conditions and many substances consumed. Loaf is my favorite mountain on the east coast. Awesome terrain, friendly people, and such a cool vibe.

100% how those trips tend to go but yeah it's always fun to have a big crew off the mtn for apre etc etc
Hell yeah this is sick. Homie with the baseball hat and green belt rips.
Yeah it was windy af on Saturday, but I still had a good time. When I woke up in the morning I was thinking everything would be on wind-hold anyways so I was just hyped to ski at all.
That little baby park underneath the Wiffletree lift is so fun.
