Ultimate Ski/Snowboard Interest thread!!!

Pretty sweet shot from Loveland Pass today.....

 

some cell phone pics from the last few days. been alternating between blue bird and storms. lots of good slack & backcountry skiing. Avi danger has been all over the place and really localized based on wind and aspect. some fun fast sloughing and i ripped out a pretty good section yesterday but didn't hang out to take a pic.

 

^^^^ Nice man, where is this?

 

Park city

 

Checking in from Alta, woot!

 

Hows the snow? Thinking about heading that direction tomorrow!

 

Conditions were interesting today, definitely not spring skiing, unless you were near the bottom of the mountain. Superior char is closed for the season. On Collins, the temp at the top was ~25 with some mean wind, a the bottom, probably 35-40*, maybe more. Soft crud/chop at the top...slush at the base
BUT THEN...at about 2, the craziest from of groupel blew in hard for about 45 mins, complete with lightening, lifts were closed. Once it blew thru and cleared, we were left with anywhere from 1 - 3" of really nice, smooth and shredable chalk/pow. Filled in the cruddier stuff nicely and made for some really good skiing Snowing now

Matthias is always about an inch away from making his last jump. He progressed very quickly through base and missed some key points along the way. I've personally seen him make some sketchy jumps. Credit to him for always pulling it off but you only get so many close calls! That kid is always amped up

 

I really hate all you guys out west that are still out riding. I need to move out there asap..

 

Ah, I see...I wish I could know how that this was triggered, or see the crown line. If it had fractured when he was on the snow, he'd mot likely be dead
Dumb luck if you ask me

 

Dumb luck is how he rolls. Super frenchie! Next time I see him I'll ask

 

Wow! Dumb luck or not, that was a pretty cool video.

 

Yea, it's pretty incredible footage for sure
