I have some pow skis that are ready to be thrashed as I just got brand new replacements. Im still not gonna go crazy in the off piste being I want these rock skis to be skiable for a few more seasons. Im counting on Jordan to help out with terrain selection being he knows the mountain, would be nice if you came allong Ray.

Its so tempting that we just go for it anyways knowing we are gonna **** up our boards lol. I took a bit(size of a nickel) off my base last week at Kirkwood. Was it worth it? Hell ya!! Lol nothing a little PTex can't fix hahaha.
But yes everyone needs to be careful going off piste.

Ya that's very true. I've been tempted on buying and wearing a spine protecter, same that motorcycle riders wear. Saw some skier at Kirkwood wearing what looked like something he made at home, a piece of hard plastic around his lower back held by a couple straps

I might have to bail on the Bear Valley plan on sunday. Looks like Mt Rose is in my sights now 8500 base elevation will help with this warming trend no doubt.

Today officially sucked dick at northstar! I was drenched within 30 mins. Took 3 runs and left. Felt bad for my boy cause he actually paid $72 for a day pass, until we sold it for $60 to some lady lol. A day is a day, but hands down the worse conditions. Thumbs down to the star! Broken my elbow, clavicle, lost my car keys, took a rock shot to the spine... KIRKWOOD ALL DAY EVERY DAY

Because their terrain parks is one of the better ones in Tahoe lol. Heavenly's is OK but too far. Kirk I haven't been to but I really want to go! As for mountain experience... Depends where you go at n*... Backside/white rabbit is FUN

If you like big steeps and chutes, Kirkwood is the place to go to. Their park is ok, but then again Kwood isn't known for their parks

To me terrain parks don't sell me on where to go riding but thats just my opinion. Never been in to parks, always preferred finding natural hits throughout a mtn.
