Fiending as well. Couldn't get on the Squaw pass with a baby on the way, but I'll be there on pow days for sure. Otherwise it'll probably be Homewood or Sugarbowl a few days.

It's funny, I pulled my board out of the bag for the first time in months and I was wowed by the way it looks... Then I see the two cracks and I was abit heart broken since it's only seen the snow maybe.... 4 times. And it's not like I'm an agressive freestyler. I just charge down the hill. Nothing wild other then speed. WTF Burton?!?

 

Come to the lake with me and you will forget about the snow!

 

....Are you making a pass at me? Thanks, I'm flattered but I'm in a happy relationship with my girlfriend.

 

no everyone who wants to come

 

Lol

 

Haha

Thinkin' about the Never Summer EVO-R as a new board

 

I've been dying for winter. Screw summer. I hate the weather right now. I like Sacramento's weather telling us that we are gonna have fall weather. 88 degrees? That's not fall weather, that's still summer you bastards. And also this is supposed to be an El Nino year. Hopefully that means plenty of snow and early. Got a baby due in March. Cutting into my snowboarding season.

 

I can't wait for Kirkwood!!!!

Nidecker Megalight & Burton T6
Burton C02 Bindings
32 Focus Boa Boots
Northface Free Thinker II Jacket and Free Thinker Pants
Protec Helmet
Burton Mittens but I plan on buying something made out of Gore-Tex this season

 

I think I might pick up a k2 darkstar i was just at groundzero and my homie brett works there and he basically sold me on it..the model without the rocker tech core or whatever that gay **** is. im tired of boards that feel like noodles.

 

How is that Skate banana? Have you heard of the banana hammock? sounds dirty huh.....

I was debating between picking up a skate banana or a burton hero, might end up with the hero as I think its a little bit more park-ey and I already have the T6 for big mountain.

TO OP: you should try to get a screwdriver in there, or grab it with some pliers and see how well its on there. The thing is, if its going to come off you want to know now so you can repair it, not one day in to a 5 day ski trip.

I just ordered up an arc teryx sidewinder AR

Note to anyone looking for 09 close outs, there are a couple pairs of boots and bindings out in a clearance bin at REI. I saw a pair of cartel EST (the channel business) in large for i think it was 140 down from 250

 

hey colton you from/go to davis?? i swing by groundzero all the time during winter

anyways hoping the el nino season will really bring in some white stuff. already purchased the double whammy last spring while it was on sale. can't beat 220 bucks.

i'm looking to upgrade my deck to k2 believer XD

 

I love the banana... I have a lot of fun with out, presses and butters are so much easier with it. I can keep my regular stance on those powder days with less thigh burn vs. a regular camber board.

I feel like the MTX also saved my *** a few times on those icy days.

I did hear of the banana hammock and IIRC, I think it was a powonly board.
