Dude… you should've called me! I was 6 miles from you

 

Went out to Northstar for a day trip. It was nice

 

Buying new pants for the season myself. Might need to make some solo trips with the lady since shes a beginner and i spend most of my time helping her until shes good on her own!

Two back seats open, would be cramped for 4 hours in the impreza tho haha.

 

Any talk of possible dates for the annual trip?

 

I believe we were talking about feb 28th weekend. Feb 28-mar 2

 

We still planning on getting a cabin right?

 

I think that would be allot of fun, we gotta hash out how we are gonna do this.

 

Cabin where? South Lake? If theres a lot of takers, I can put up 2-5 people at my house.

 

Wow, that's super generous man. We might have to take you up on that.

 

For all you bear heads they just started a unofficial bear valley page, and they are talking about the community buying BV as a co-op and running the mountain. This sounds like a great oppurtunity for us as enthusiasts to actually be a part of making a mountain better.

I got cash for this cabin thing or ican get the 3 bedroom on the 18th floor for $500 a night

 

Just went snowboarding for the first time ever and I'm hooked. I can't believe I waited so long to actually tried it...

Van someone explain how snowbomb actually works? It seems way to good to be true when you scoop it up for 50 bucks.
And any recommendation on gear? Thinking about purchasing a nice set up once the seasons over, snag some deals or whatnot

 

I have never done snowbomb but as for equipment.. The question is on how much you want to spend. My first board was a Burton Custom series.. Excellent board for all mountain and does (alright) in the terrain park.. (too stiff for my liking).. Now I am using the Ride Machete with Ride bindings... Excellent structure and perfect for terrain park fun and does decent on ice.. a stiffer board would do better on ice. Boots.... 2 seasons ago I ordered Salamon Dialogues and I am hooked! These are by far the best snowboarding boots due to comfortably, flexibility, and quality.

if you want a picture of my setup lemme know. I can show you exactly how flexible it is and also my boots.

 

Honestly Ive just been skimming though craigslist trying to find anything. I'm down to spend some nice coin on a set up. Like I mentioned I may just wait until the seasons over to really buy my gear. Really looking for sizing recommendations since I'm a bigger dude at 6'2" 200lbs

 

If you can find a nice used Burton Custom grab it. IMHO the best all around board. Good for beginnings and advanced.
