I ended up with 74 this year. Finished it up at Killington two weeks ago.

 

If killy stays open till june again this year i may head over

 

18 days for me

 

Not that high

 

How are you getting so many days?!?! My house is slopeside at a small resort in western New York, and I still only managed 74.

 

Start my season in October at Sunday river and ski right through till may, work at a mountain too

 

Hey guys just wanted to declare that I rip the hardest!!!

They'll be turning on the snowguns soon enough!

 

2nd hardest you meant, that's cool though

Where do you rip at?

 

Hahaha I knew that would take some heat! (all in good fun!)

I kind of bounce back and forth from season passes which locks me down to a couple mountains, to searching for deals another year. This year I'll be getting the Wildcat/Attitash season pass, last year I had none and just skied where ever had the cheapest deals!. I feel with a season pass I get out more cause its easier to just go and not even think about it! We like Wildcat alot mostly due to the fact that its not a turist trap! and it has really good terrain, but it can be so friggin cold there, but they get the snow and stay open pretty late compared to other mountains in NH.
I also ski Gunstock on Wed. nights in the winter (Race Beer League). When i was younger I lived in Maine and rocked Sunday River pretty much excusively, but my fiance now hates that Mt. for some reason... We'll do a couple suicide runs up to Jay Peak during the winter too! And our friends rent a house in VT every year for a long weekend of boozing and skiing we've done that at Jay Peak, and Sugarbush the past coulpe years! I also love Cannon too, I love the big old school mountains that dont cature too the rich and privledged if you catch my drift!

Im 29 now and started skiing when I was 3, I live for the winter and everything about it!

What about you teneighty ( the most innovative skis of all time) where do you go?

 

BTW Nice looking Taco bro!

 

Great thread ten80.
Is your site the ADKBC one?
I have visited that for years.

 

I'm 43, and started skiing when I was 40.

I've been averaging over 70 times a year on skis since I started.

Making up for lost time I guess...

 

voodoo you are def. making up for lost time hell yeah... im jealous of your count!

 

Hahaha I start wishing for it the day it ends!!
Well I started out a little mojntain 2 miles from my house called Titus when I was in 4th grade I think?... Then it was no looking back. Just fell in love! Started getting a pass at whiteface and racing up there up to the JII level then became a park rat! I can't concentrate on one dicipline because I love everything about it. I want to start a skiing competition where you start at the top and do some big lines and cliffs, them come down through some mogul lines, then a run through the park throwing down some sick tricks and finishing with a race course to the bottom!!! That's a comp! Haha
I just moved to Saratoga Springs so I'm trying a pass at Killington this year. iWork weekends so a midweek pass will be perfect and that place is insane on weekends anyway. Was never a fan of the mountain layout but hopefully I'll get used to it because they get some decent snow for the east. Whiteface is a sick mountain but they don't get shit for snow... (Too bad) Love Jay! Had some sick days there this year and is only a few hours from me. Great spot but I miss the old feel before they put that huge water park and stuff in
I go out West every year and found Alta/Snowbird to be my favorite place on earth! No doubt the best skiing in the Con US. (AK and WY/MT yet to be skied)

the adkbcski is not my site. I like to get in the BC when I can and encourage everyone to check out the site! There is some sick skiing in the ADK's when the weather cooperates!
We'll have to try and get a TW rip session in this winter!! Pray for snow guys!

 

Oh sorry. It is a great site. I have never been BC in the ADKs. Would love to sometime. I am game for it. My BC partner and I could never connect to get to that area.
Long time slider, always praying for snow.
