at great divide, at the top of good luck (half way up the mountain)after the storm a few days ago. they got dumped on
 
definitely going to be some shreddery at GD this weekend. big sky has been pretty good, but that bowl is cashed, and challengnar is still rocky
 
anyone go up to big sky today?

im goin tomorrow.

anyone goin tomorrow? haha

someone said the park still sux xcept they got a handrail in

heard its kinda hard to do stuff on
 
^I went up today, it was pretty fun. Today was my first day up, so I don't know how the park compares to last weekend, but it was fun. Doing tricks on the handrail would not be much different than doing tricks on other handrails. I think some kids were spinning on and stuff.
 
it was alright today. coverage on challenger is pretty thin. mostly we just messed around on the groomers bonking off shit and whatever. we need more snow for sure
 
yeah alex and i went up today and it was just kinda a mess around day. we didn't hit challenger and mostly stayed on mr. k or whatever that run is called. we just need some more snow and we'll be set.
 
haha was at a kid in green? because me and tjski got off of swifty and he yelled newschoolers to someone
 
black helmet? little ns sticker? and was the kid he yelled at in a plaid jacket? (that would be me)
 
i didn't yell at any newschoolers. i had red pants with a greyish puffy jacket and a white helmet. alex and i were the kids afterbanging everything we could find including traverses, rollers and when we got off of the chair lift.
 
ahahaha i think i saw you, but you werent him. im pretty sure he had a green jacket, but he had a black helmet with a little ns sticker. and apparently he saw the giant one on my helmet, but i was confused lol so i didnt stop to figure out who he was
 
haha i went up today

i saw two newschoolers hemets

it was prolly one of u...

ben do u have a huge ns sticker on ur white helmet? with a 4bi9 sticker? the sticker is blue

 
ha ya that was us.....i was saposed to work today so i had my big sky unifrom on....but i got the day off to ride. u looked really confused haha.
 
we just got off the lift and u rode by us. and tj was like " oh yaaaa newschoolers". and you gave him a funny look and just kept going haha.....
 
ohhh word.

i need an ns sticker for my helmet

i was the little kid in the blue and white oakley jacekt with the blue hat
 
lol yeah. i would have stopped but my friends were heading off to god knows where and i had no clue where they were going. so i was like oh yeah but not really paying attention. lol my bad. but hi lol
 
ohh yeah did u see henrik haralut?

haha we always give that kid shit lol

but today was a good day overall

 
i shot the man on the grassy knoll! and i said "ya newschoolers!" hahah i was the one that was wearing green pants and a green coat and a black helmet with a small ns sticker on it.. i used the big one for my jeep!
 
hahaha yeah. i was like wtf? gangster suit in montana? that was the last place i expected to see one lol.
 
word on the street is, it's supposed to dump a foot up there tonight.
also, a general question for you guys...
i broke my ski today at Great Divide... got a good offer on some brand new Atomic Urban Punx... are they any good??? i'm still new to the ski game, and i really don't know much about Atomic's just yet.
 
Depends on your weight and how hard you ski and wreck. I went through two pairs last winter. The first pair I broke the first day on them from casing a jump, The second pair slowly broke over time from backseat landings. My computer is about to die but feel free to PM me if you have more questions.
 
god, i cant believe i have to work today. theres seriously 8 inches of fresh in the meadow right now. probably gonna be ridiculous on the hill today
 
ill be comin up this weekend so hopefully the snow keeps fallin all week. u guys should get atleast another day of snow fall i hope...
 
Ahhh it was dope! Still had to be a little careful of rocks but such a good pow day for early December. I got chair 5 on challenger. No crowds all day!
 
it's good to remain hopeful... but yesterday was fucking sick. got last chair right before patrol on challenger though, thought i'd hit some secret spots, and even there the pow was starting to get pretty tracked up. nevertheless, i'm sure you'll find some snow to your liking if you go up. it started snowing at the end of the day so hopefully it brought a few fresh inches. good luck!
 
This weekend better not be as cold as they say it will be. A beautiful week all week and then some shitty weather when I can ski, so weak.
 
the good thing about cold is no one goes out. if it snows, there should be tons of fresh cuz no one will be tracking it out. there was a day 3 winters ago when it was -15 (the minimum needed for lifts to actually spin), and we had gotten like 8 inches. the mountain was EMPTY. i couldn't feel my legs or arms, but the snow was so good, i couldn't stop lapping
 
on our way up last night it was pukin, then stopped at about 1. now its puking again. hopefully i get to ride my pow shred today. keepin my fingers crossed...
 
yeah. fun snow got some good pow in the trees off of challenger. but it was freezing. i dont think im going up tomorrow. today was a high of what 19? tomorrow high of 2? i think not lol.
 
thdidnt even open today. which sucked cuz i was so ready to go, no matter how much i could move on the snow...
 
Anybody do some holiday shreddin? I had to come home the night it started dumping... I hear we got some good snow?
 
ill be making an appearance anywhere from 31st-5th coming up here, might just go to Bridger if big skys park is so shitty.
