Post Whats on your Skmind

I used to feel the same way when I would get injured when I was closer to your age. I can assure you that you’ll find there is more to life than skiing

You may not be out for the whole season if you get surgery soon, But what’s more important than rushing back to skiing is making sure you get your arm as close to back to normal as you can, that will affect you for the rest of your life

I’ve been chronically injured for like 3 years now, I know how ya feel

I’ve been trying to find things other than skiing for like 5 years but I haven’t been able to make any friends or find anything else to do. I just ski because it’s all I have left and when I’m not skiing I’m just numb and emotionless and miserable the only time I’m not freaking out is when I’m skiing

some more thoughts. If this is how you genuinely feel I think it might help to talk to someone while youre down and out. NS is here as well, but depression sucks and theres never any shame in getting some professional help for it. You can even do it from your phone these days.

Been going to therapy and pyschttrist since I was 12 lol shit isn’t meant to make you better just keep u in the cycle Buddy boy
 
It's been extremely-stressful month of training but my co-worker today saying that he likes taking solo-gondys at Winter Park for pocket beers settled me down a little bit lol. Its sometimes just Skiing at the end of the day but patrolling r00lz
 
Got 10/16 dub swap to 2 outs. Going away for 2 weeks and the full park will be open when I’m back so looks like I failed my preseason goal lol

i think theres minimal validity towards this.

there are certainly some therapists just lookin for a check but my experience, especially the younger ones who aren’t broken down yet, they generally care. my therapist gives me tons of tools, consistently asking what the plan is and what i need to get out of therapy. it also helps that i am clearly invested in the process. im sure when you were 12 it wasn’t your suggestion to go to therapy lol.

psychiatrists on the other hand i don’t have as great of a perception on. their job is to prescribe and i think because of that they often over prescribe.
 
10/16 dub had me thinking you did dub 10 lol

Your fault for not being born in the west tbh

Not a single jump at COP yet lol

Ontario outclassing the west yet again and im not suprised. my local has a jump you can spin 9 on.

do not ask me how big the actual hill is or how many features we have at peak build, I will not tolerate east coast slander

Blue and MSLM always clear COP this is no surprise. Sunshine is better but I can’t afford to ski there atm

They do they’re nice
 
I've been snowboarding the last hour or so of each ski day and man, I am humbled and urban snowboarding seems way more gnarly than skiing to me now
 
Landed unnat bs bs f2 tonight so that’s 11 / 16 . Off to Hawaii tomorrow hope everyone gets some powder or some new park tricks over the holiday
 
Cal me jaded but I’m watching Sammy Carlson’s Kamase and, in Japan, all I can think about is how these are all clips staged for the shot and maybe weren’t nearly as fun as they looked.
 
Watching Forre 2. They’re hitting spots in Jyväskylä, Finland that I recognize. I always get really excited about that. It’s silly but I guess it’s the simple things in life.

I get that; in one of the STAND videos they got clips on a street in Worcester that I’ve walked down a thousand times when my friends lived there and I ended up sending them a DM with more Worcester spots.

what's the fenway wave rail?

42°20'47.1"N 71°05'29.7"W

Nick Martini hit it years ago and then they hit in one of their more recent movies @ 7:00 in hypertunnel

same, the entire 4 years I lived in boston it didn't snow enough to build a drop in so I probably missed my shot as well

My high school was across the street from the rail and I was never good enough at blading to hit it ?

How do copper, winter park, or Eldora parks compare right now? How are the rails, jumps, lift lines?

Eldo has 2 medium jumps with different knuckle distance and one large jump. We are fully open in terms of rails which is pretty crazy considering the time of year. We also have some cool volcano features and trash can features. Lines are pretty big on the weekends, but on the weekdays it’s pretty much deserted.
 
Gangily a few weeks ago my ski snagged on something when i was jibbing a log and now it feels heavier in the back somehow... What The Flip happened?

gangily i think you just got the tism, thats all
 
Early season skiing in CO during the holidays has taught me that hell-bombing groomers is an absolute no go and people are going too hard for the given conditions again.
