Minneapolis got some snow last night! I went outside and threw some pipes down for the first time this season. so stoked to be skiing. Anyone know when some MN parks might start opening? Im hoping wild opens next Friday. Post clips and updates here for MN and if you ever want to meet up in MN let us know here. Start of a new seas.

I hope wild opens Monday or Tuesday but Friday is more likely. Same for Troll. Going out west Friday so I guess I'll be just missing preseason... oh well.
 
Yes I'm hyped! I was just out in the backyard sliding on a mini pvc rail in the 3 days inches of snow.

Wild mtn IG said they're going to start making snow this evening. Maybe you'll get lucky and get to ski Thursday before you head west [tag=255151]@ScootSkiLyfe[/tag]
 
Might have to drive down to Hyland sometime during Thanksgiving break because it is going to be another month until the resort in eastern South Dakota opens.
 
AMBER ALERT::: So a homie of mine posted a story clip today (switch tips over 2 on was gas jack if you're on here) at Andes Tower and I was like tf.

Apparently, Andes tower was open today (11/14) from noon-4pm and NO one knew about it lol. $10 day with rails setup. Fack.

Anyone got a shop they’re loyal to? I grew up in Apple Valley but moved to Montana for college and am bummed to have to leave my favorite shop behind because I moved to back to Minneapolis upon graduation. I need a mount and like to feel like a regular, anywhere that’s particularly friendly?

Fuck it I’ll come too

im all ears on this thread. The amount of times in the past couple of seasons I’ve been tempted to make a 13 hour drive to sesh troll in October is nuts. Minnesota might be the capital of park skiing besides SLC.

Pinewskis is the spot. Only shop in Mn that I let touch my stuff. Definitely stop by sometime- the shop dudes are homies and the store has everything you need.

For bootfitting hands down Pierce skate and ski in Bloomington.

When I’m coming back to MN from MT for holidays, I’m bringing two pairs of boots for modifications/new insoles made.

Lemme know if you do I’ll pull up to troll for a day. Highly recommend Elm Creek too. Cheap ass passes, strictly park and rows.

Trust me dog I’ve watched that edit probably close to 50 times. Literally every hill out there looks so fun. Troll, hyland, elm, og buck hill, wild, afton, all of em. Even spirit up in duluth looks fun asf. If I wasn’t filming two projects this winter and wasn’t a full time engineering student you’d know damn well I’d make a hike out there from pa.

spirit is probably the best park in minnesota, i’d say hyland and troll have the tightest communities. Hyland and elm can be overrated sometimes though, the park crew regularly does extrmely wack shit.

Another vote for Pinewskis in Anoka. I bought my latest pair of skis there and they treated me well. Unlike other stories of shops -- treating females like theyre morons.

Another place like no one talks about is Powder Ridge. PR was my local growing up. Parks are pretty solid and has a super low key vibe. Much more so than hyland troll etc

how old are you?? i ain’t saying don’t smoke weed but i honestly regret being a highschool stoner
 
I skied Wild Mtn today. can confirm it's fun, definitely check out Wild if you're in the area

Also, Hyland started blowing snow they should be opening soon.

Safe to say winter has hit MN

Awesome you made it up here! I was at Trollhaugen today. It sure felt like winter today with that Brutal wind!
 
Looks like Buck hill is firing all the guns. If temps hold they should have a run open by end of week.

hope you have fun homie

Thanks man. I remember opening week last year there main side of the rope was stuffed. Literally no room to even stand at the top so I ended up riding the other side (3boxes and a small rail) all day. Hoping for something better tomorrow
