I gave in. I was going to take a hiatus this season due to lingering injuries from last season, but covered physio takes care of that.

So...

I bought new gear, again.

I got 2 passes, again.

So who's got what this season, and where you going to rep your gear?

Oh yah.

Got this as well

seasons pass to grouse

and 5 day edge card to whistler

as for gear all the same from last season except for a new pair of dragon DX goggles

same gear as last year. who needs new gear when i've got new moves? :spin:

They maybe new to you, but aren't they recycled moves from me?

Probably wont get a chance to go much this season :( so I'll probs be getting an edge card to Whistler and just buying day passes everywhere else. I got a new board though :D
Burton Custom Andy Warhol 154 WOOT!

isn't there like 0 snow up at the mountains?
i hope there will be a blizzard again like last nov.

Whistler is getting mad snow at the moment! That man made stuff and the natural fall from the sky stuff as well

seasons pass to Big White again. maybe take a trip to Revelstoke this year.

I went to check out some boots and pants on the weekend and apparently I missed the memo on the 08/09 styles. every fuckin pair of pants is neon orange or neon green.

If that's not dedication, I don't know what is.

season pass for whistler at the student rate!! ;o

Sorry, i meant to forward that to you.

My apologies brother.

I have 3 or 4 trips out to Ktown this season, I'ma hollar at you when I head up.

2 x 3 hour sittings and counting.

I have another sitting of filler around the blue...going to be another session of white around there.

then another sitting for greywashing the black outline, so when it's all said and done, you will only see the color and the shape.

this season is officially my 20th year snowboarding. I kinda wanted to do that ink around my man tit for a few years now.

lol Vangruver, you must really love the snow lol

havrnt been riding in a few years but i've got brand new gear given to me from last year so hopefully get out a few times this year..

My main snow toy:

ANyone know a good local shop that can bevel edges? I bought a new board this year and dont wanna get hung up on rails.

You can do it yourself very easily.

What you want to do is to get a file and apply vinyl or electrical tape to one side of it. make it thick, roughly half a cm.

Take a permanent marker and mark the base edge, the area of the edge that is along side of the running surface/base. What you are doing is making the marker for you to see how much of the edge you are beveling.

Take that file you applied tape to, and put the tape side on the base of the board, that tape has then angled your edge at an aproximate 1-2 degree base bevel.

Run the file along the markered portion of the base and you will see from the metal you remove that you are then beveling the edges.

very simple and very easy to do, plus you still have side edge to use for the harder snow conditions.

got a seasons pass to sun peaks and just using the same equip as last year. Opening day is SATURDAY and there's NO snow there.. this is very saddening. :(
I would love to check out Revelstoke's new hill but don't know how likely that is.

same gear but got spy bandits from lastyear

im contemplating new boots and bindings any suggestions?

whistler pass!
and got a new gnu riders choice
gonna wait til more snow falls before i take that baby out

I think I just got fired from that nipple pic :cry:

My nipple gets me in trouble ALL the time.
