09 slash 10 snow sliding season
 

Fuckit, it's only october, but there is so much going on now to set yourselves up for winter.

There are hella video premiers....

my buddy throws the mtn madmess mondays, inaugural night tomorrow night [my birthday btw]

the gyms are already setting up their winter fitness skiing and snowboarding training

the vancouver sno show is happening next weekend at the trade and convention center

While all this is happening, what are you planning?

Is the snow show the Ski/snowboard swap? or is that completely different and at BC Place?

I'm not sure if it's the same, but it is a show/swap as well.

I'm being lazy and practically given up on being a gear whore.

I'll let all y'all do the gear collecting instead.

Haha if u ever wanna share the love bro i can use some med bindings and 9 boots hahaha ;p

I'll be asking around to my friends and seeing what's for sale on their end. And with that I'll also be picking through my stuff to figure out what to sell as well. I'll keep things posted

Shreddin the gnar Friday the 20th!

Cypress. easy peasy local.

Watch out for the duder rocking the tight pants wide stance.

anyone head up to Cypress yet? is the mountain fully open?

Not quite fully open, but a lot of the mountain should be by now.

there isn't THAT much snow coverage for the steeper bits

Went to Cypress on Sunday, it wasnt too bad, mostly because of the fog, but the riding was nice and smooth. Quite a bit of the terrain is open though. Probably head back up this week.

Friday December 4th Cypress all day.

I'll be rocking out au solo

didn't want to start a new topic. i really want a face mask that will protect my face from freezing. but needs to be breathable so my goggles don't fog up.

so far I'm looking at

ebay

MEC

MEC2

MEC3

the first 2 look good

ive had the last one and really never used it so dont get it lol

I find facemasks arent really necessary for our local mountains. Places like Whistler is where they can come in handy.

I think it's funny when people wear balaclava's. it's like they are trying to keep up with fashion, or trying to hide their identity.

The only person I know of that pulls that look off is Shaun White, but then again, they do call him the shred ninja.


BTW, whistler/blackcomb Sunday December 5th. PEAK TO CREEK BABY

I advise all that are excited about this nice sunshiney weather to hold off on going up to any mountain.

It's rediculously icey up there and not worth the money spent on the drive, the gear and the food you're planning on buying up on the hill.

Unless all you want to do is learn to do a 270 frontside board in the park, it's seriously NOT worth it.

you know an Ingmar Vangruver?

I know of a Ingmar?

was he sponsored by atomic snowboards?

Mmm perhaps thought he rode for someone else but haven't talked to him in a while

I worked with him for a bit and saw some of his footage figured you might have known him
