The_Best_Breaddid boyne highlands actually get 15 inches
yaskataHad a storm day with 0 people, had 6 hours of sleep in the last 2 days, got my hair ruined yesterday, lost my pole in a tree on my third run, searched 2 hours, gave up, skied amazing powder and i still feel like shit. I also blame the barber
BradFiAusNzCoCaI did not expect that I would like Keystone as much as I do.
muffMan.I don’t make it over the divide much, I always hit tunnel build up and just go Loveland. I did love keystone the two times I went but was early szn
CowboySkibopare pole plant tricks cool?

Rock_InhabitantWhen you’re touring and met with a little downhill that’s like 100 meters do you guys bother with putting your bindings back into alpine and taking skins off real quick or do you just lean back and straightline that shit

BradFiAusNzCoCaYeah I mean that’s why I mostly go for Loveland. Going past the continental divide can be an absolute pain in the ass. I’ve been going to keystone a lot lately because friends have epic but the drive does suck.
SteezyYeeterI was 0.07 points away from podiuming at my comp yesterday 🥲 would have been nice for birthday but i am glad to have done well.
SchizoSkierI’ve registered for 7 one and two star freeride comps so far and have not gotten into a single one
SteezyYeeteryeah i heard comps out west filled up insanely fast, within minutes of going live. at least for ifsa. a lot less athletes on the east coast though, especially for regional (now two star?) comps.
muffMan.I definitely need to check it out more, I heard Indy bowl is pretty mint, hiking out doesn’t seem too bad.
Only bad thing about Loveland is how slow they seemed to open compared to others. Lift 4 and 8 just opened which seems pretty hype.
BradFiAusNzCoCaI wouldn’t know man. I still haven’t even hit Bergman express. I’m usually skiing with my wife and she loves outback (as do I) so we tend to lap that chair and the chairs in the timber ridge area.
Dude Loveland has been painfully slow to open chairs this year. I think that’s every year though, if I think back on it. Chair 4 just opened early last year. Chair 9 is mostly windpacked crust unless you get lucky or want to hike. It’s dead last to open.
You gotta ride the ridge cat they have that dumps you over chair 8. Chair 4 and 8 can be great on a powder day but the problem is chair 8 is serviced by chair 4. Chair 4 is way windier than 8 so if 4 goes on hold, so does 8.
partyandBSbergman was super underwhelming when o was there. i was most impressed with the fact that they were running snowmaking lines all the way up there. very mellow terrain. heavily wind blown. i hear that the erickson gate has good terrain but when i was there it wasnt open
SchizoSkierYeah our San Juan wolf creek local 1* comp filled up in 19 seconds. Went thru the wait list and looked ppl up on IG and every. Single. One. Was a CU freeski kid. Our Durango local comp is completely filled with front range kids flying from boulder. Bummer
profa_212This is exactly how it was when I was competing as well. Usually the targhee stop. Our team would struggle to get a couple skiers and 1 or 2 boarders. Meanwhile CU boulder has 40 people that are conveniently able to get in.
Forrest.Gumpdont waste your time, money , and efforts.
someone has already bought the win in any closed competition....
ReturnToMonkeyDo you have to pay for applying to comps if you don't get a spot?
CowboySkiboplike PWOYM, but ski specific thoughts and BS

GayWolf420why is skiing so fucking awesome and beautiful yet so heart-breaking at the same time?

BradFiAusNzCoCaHonestly skiing is best when I’m flowing and in my own world not thinking about anything. There are a lot of great people but a lot of scumbags in the industry too. Never forget what made you love it.
