Go to Mt Hood and ski lol

im trying super hard to get an internship out west where there is snow still - and if that doesnt happen, i'll just try to get a job out there and still be able to ski

I dont think I'll make it through this summer otherwise.

wheres the adrenaline rush in sailboats tho

Yeah, its more of a leisure thing. Its nice to kick back and soak up the rays.

How about inline skating? I picked it up and enjoyed it thoroughly for one summer haha it was fun to learn, but got old real quick. Back flips on concrete.... pass. It was nice to practice sliding rails and it was also how I first learned how to 270 on

I actually tried to pick up roller derby but the cost per month was way too high for me to stay in the league - I could take the skates to the ramps though now that you mention it and be a super aggressive quad skater lol
 
OP. It's January and I'm pretty sure you are in North America. We're literally right in the middle of winter right now. Spring is really super duper good skiing too. Eventually it will be summer and you can get drunk and fall asleep with your skis on the couch when you are pretending to catch up on all your projects before the season starts.

Apply to windells and timberline!!
 
Get a job, workout, mountain bike, skate, rock climbing/bouldering, cliff jumping, summer set up, boat stuff
 
Mountain bike! Brown pow! I held off for so many years but finally got into it, and I'm fucking hooked..

Plus the sporadic climbing, rafting, hiking... General exploration of the wilderness with beer in hand.
 
Basically everything I do year round aside skiing. Work, do nothing and skateboard. And maybe some type of weekend trip,
 
workout, inline, and surf. surfing is great if you live on the east coast or in cali or oregon. makes you forget about skiing.
 
Work. Try to get to the beach once....even though I live like 5 minute walk from the ocean. I got a canoe last year that I need to do a minor repair on so I am hoping to use that this sumer. My summers are mostly filled with working though.

summer = no snow.

How do you keep existential dread from setting in due to not skiing

Go skiing. It's always ski season somewhere.

I either hit the southern winter or drive around in my car and hike/camp places.

but what if you like activities that are actually exciting?

Dont knock it if you havent even tried it...or know the first thing about it. You just insulted a fuck ton of people
 
I try and work all summer to live off ei and my savings through the winter, which worked quite well for 2 years. This summer I would like to build a race car and get back into riding downhill bikes so maybe getting a real job is something I should do as well lol

climbing rocks is just moderately dangerous exercise. freeclimbing is a good adrenaline rush but, at the same time I really wouldn't mind making it to 30 with my spine intact.

this is coming from a guy who's dad was an avoid climber, and has actually done a fair amount of climbing compared to some people on here. Way rather go driving or biking or something. I'm not knocking it, i'm just saying a lot of people really aren't interested in direct sunlight, and working themselves like a dog just to get up a face...

Says the person sitting behind a keyboard? Sorry I tried standing up for something thats alot bigger than some summer forum.. Look seriously if you have never tried it you have no idea what youre even talking about.

this is a regular occurrence for me. And i think climbers might be the least scary group ive insulted in a while.

Also, tried climbing for about 3 years when I lived with avid climbers. Kinda fun, challenging. Not that intense or exciting. I mountain bike and skate and drive a japanese rice mobile fast around corners. Make my heart race or get out of my face.

lol not really. wtf has climbing ever done for anyone? Or skiing? I mean if youre into something, fine, but don't act like your making some grand stand for a noble cause.

What has skiing or climbing done for anyone? Thats your question?
 
Live at the beach so I surf, wake, skate, jet ski, and bum around till the fall. Fall is for hiking camping and road trips.

Jesus you sound like a pussy. Did you even read what you wrote? I hope you aren't like that in real life.

Nothing. So when someone says they don't like skiing I don't get all teary eyed and butthuty, I say "cool" and move on with my life.

Jesus man, life is gonna eat your marshmallow soft self up haha.
