Yo fools
temps are dropping, leaves are falling, and if you’re not getting excited for winter, you’re wack as shit. Cousin copped a place in Bozeman which means I will be visiting for a week this winter, and a day with some NS homies is absolutely mandatory. Gonna be there some time in January or February, haven’t fixed the dates yet. Drop a pin if you’re tryna ski Big Sky or Bridger Bowl!! Payment for showing me the goods includes beer, weed, and photos/videos you can post on Instagram to flex

Haha they held me in when I tore my ACL...

They are actually great and I would not have normally wanted to eject in that situation, I am pretty sure I had pre-existing damage in my ligament. I definitely am going to consider more franken bindings in the future now

Bruh, at this point ppl have told me to salute it both ways, to salute it just on the way back and not look at it on the way there, or to just ignore it in general. Idek anymore.

I'm just not versed in whale lore, local status revoked.

I give it the death stare, have even flipped it off a few times. Nothing bad ever happening until I hurt my knee but I don't think it's because of the whale. Fuck that whale

So facts, those jumps are the worst ever, I don’t hit them. Prolly hit the last jump at the bottom only like 4 times last year. It’s amazing how horrible those jumps are and the fact that IFSA kids still like go hit them too.

You are right it was a huge waste of fuel and snow, but i mean I was eyeing the jump from the lift and told my brother "that's impossible to clear with natural speed" and still hit it anyways... Really it's the GM's fault for making them keep the park on the only flat part of the whole mountain

Technically you are supposed to avoid seeing it on the way up at all costs or else some bad luck stuff will happen. Ive heard all sorts of stories of people spotting it on the way up then getting hurt or breaking a ski or car part or something

Ok so I’m gonna be there Jan 18-23, skiing 19-22 at Bridger I am not paying big sky prices on my broke ass budget. Anyone gonna be there wanna link show me some cool shit? Also how’s the season been so far? Is there a park at Bridger? Think I’m gonna bring just one pair of skis but I only ski jumps anyway so it doesn’t matter too much. Need the info, getting very stoked

Yeah man big sky is crazy for prices. Buy online at bridger to save some cash.

Seasons been aight too, got tons of snow but starting to settle and base depth going down a bit from the warmer temps, but I can still find powder stashed in spots.

Park is basically a small jump line with a medium sized one at the end, and the upper one has a nice mix of rails and bigger jumps. But bridgers park is still mid asf, the actual park is decent but the lift just is so long and makes it not worth it

Also I’ll see how my work schedules me but might be able to link that last Sunday

Day 1 update Bridger Bowl is sick, @ModMommy did not over exaggerate the place is raw as fuck. My ski choice was not stellar, does anyone know/have any ON3Ps for sale here that I can buy today or tomorrow? (Jokes but if you do have a pair HMU). Light was flat and I suck at skiing so it was tough but saw a bunch of people going fucking huge, anyone who gets to ski here full time is the luckiest motherfucker ever. I’m gonna be linkin w my boy from HS tomorrow so if anyone else wants in drop me a PM would love to ski w some of you guys
