Set my new record this year, helps working at the resorts

120 at Sunshine Village

64 at Treble Cone

6 at Snow Park NZ

5 at Lake Louise

3 at Remarkables

all adds up to 198, gotta try and get the golden 200 next year

 
This calendar year? Or the 09/10 winter + the 10 summer?

If you are counting the December of 09, this is my list

Japan

Niseko - Around 110

Rusutsu - 8

Kiroro - 1

Italy

La Thuile - 6

India

Manali - 3

NZ

TC - 1

Ohau - 1

Coronet - Around 20

Remarks - Around 85

So about 230-40

Hey Jamie, it's Jim, you stayed at my house at the end of NZ. How's home treating you?

 
Hey Jim, It's good to be home but already getting boring, gonna get some riding in at the dry slope and head out to Canada on December 1st so not too long off the snow. Where are you headed this winter?
 
I did the math, i literally couldn't ski more than 100 days in my season (with school and if i skied every day on every break, which doesn't happen)

I've gotten about 80 days each year for the past 3 years though.
 
Haha, I was thinking about drysloping it the other day, but I am not sure I am quite that desperate yet! I am heading back out to Japan, just booking my flights now, probably going about the 29th, just a bit over a month to go :)
 
I got in the 50-60 range in 09/10. This year my goal is to break 100, which shouldnt be too difficult given my new schedule.
 
My season hopefully starts in 4 weeks. Last year I got almost about 80+ days in. Seeing as I am taking online classes for high school, I am shooting for well over 90.
 
0 last year, shitty Western Australia + uni, this year I'm hoping for like 100 around sunshine/lake Louise as I've move to Canmore for the season!
 
im trying to get around 30 but im scared that wont happen, cause i've got that fucking army starting from january 10th
 
Ya, I'm pretty sure the broke the might hundo our first year out here, but that was because I did like 25 preseason days. Only had like 58 park city days last year thanks to the sled.
 
I've gotten 100 days, give or take the past few years. I used to write a journal, writing down every day. I put it down in a blog entry one year, so you can search my profile if you're interested.

Instead of just going for days on skis this year, I'm going to try and get more days in the backcountry than days inbounds (while still getting 100 (give or take). It might be tough, might be easy... depends on a lot of factors I suppose.
 
yea i was thinking about that, your trough the army already arent you? did you happen to get some for skiing, and without being in a club or a team?
 
im amazed people get over 100 i had about 68 days on a scanner i think along with another 18 days pre season and post season sessions
 
Talma was a 10 minute drive away, so I got a couple of times in on extended evening leave and could stash my gear in empty lockers on permission. No leaves though, but a snowboarder who was a member of Pakastin got leaves to go practice, so there's always a chance if you plead your case right, I guess.
 
last year i ski'd at sugarloaf and sunday river from october 16- may 2 and got 63 days. not bad for straight weekends and vacations and only skipping a couple days of school
 
i'm hoping to get 80 this coming season. A month in the states would help, if all my plans work out the way i want.
 
last year I only got 35 'cause of school. this year hopefully at least 75. already got 1 down... 74 to go!
 
I'm hoping for 60 + days this year and hope for good conditions, AND POW DAYS. goddam I didnt even had 2 good pow days last year.

I skied about 50-60 days last year.
 
I hope to make 40 this year, since I'm going to college and everything. See how things shape up. Maybe I'll get a lot of night skiing done at COP, along with every possible weekend at Kicking Horse, PLUS I got 2 free days at Sunshine, PLUS PLUS, I'll be working World Cup again at Lake Louise, that includes free skiing.
 
i think i broke 100 last season. either broke it or got very, very close. i got my pass pulled twice and was busy with finals, early season, but i had a shit ton of pre-season days thanks to snowpark niagara.
 
I only got in 60 at my home mountain, along with 15+ arena sessions and a few on the small hills around my house.
 
Where the fuck did you even find all that money to travel? Spending a winter in japan and the summer in new zealand isn't cheap on it's own.
 
I work as a ski instructor, so a lot of those days were predominantly spent teaching. India is not expensive to travel around at all and Italy was actually a work trip. But yeah, flights can be a bitch.
 
right about 20 last year, got hurt on jan 6th. year before that had about 10 and got hurt dec 13th both Acls so both season enders. Hoping for 125 this season. thats been the goal for the last two years but that obviously didnt happen
 
meh. Probably around 90.

Christmas and spring break at vail, the rest at afton alps minnesota with a few days at the surrounding hills. I only live like 10 minutes away so....
