Mountain creek has reopened on Wednesday (3/20/13). It will be open from hereon weather permitting. I will be riding Sunday morning at the crack of dawn. Conditions should be pretty good. Hope to see...
I just rode at a small ski resort in New York state this past weekend. It has 35 trails with an 1100 ft vertical drop. The resort is called Plattekill which is located in the western Catskill...
It looks like we may make a trip to Plattekill tomorrow (Sunday 3/16/13) They got snow this past week and may get more today (Saturday) I won't know for sure if we are going until tonight and when I...
If he is riding soft boots then it is definately Dave. He rides an all mountain Donek and was riding around last Saturday with the mountain photographer. I'm sure it is him.
Nick,
Its tough to say. I ride with my buddies whom live in Vermont. I just follow the pack. I think we stayed on Rams Head Peak for the afternoon ride. Mostly blue square runs and maybe a diamond...
SnowboardingJ,
It seems like you have alot of questions. I can only tell you what I prefer and to be quite honest I am sort of an odd ball when it comes to equipment preferences. You must remember...
Mountain Creek wasn't bad this morning (Sunday 3/10/13) Me, Ken and Dave got the first chair up and rode from 8:00 to 11:00. Conditions were stiff but carvable. A slip of an edge here and there but...
I will be riding at Mountain Creek tonight Wed. 3/6/13 at North and Sunday morning for the first chair also at North. This weekend is suppose to be fairly warm. I may try to get out late Saturday...
I purchased a pair of Burton Ion soft boots yesterday. They are the second stiffest soft boot Burton manufactures. Wow are they stiff. I compared them to the boots I already have which are an old...
My daughter had a softball hitting clinic yesterday. Her coach Ozzie was showing her how to drive her right knee and torque her lower body as she swung the bat. At the same time this is happening she...
SNowboardingJ,
I will be riding at MC on Saturday morning for the first chair and possibly Sunday morning for the first chair. If you can make it there early we can ride for a few runs. However...
2stroke,
I haven't ridden in a pair of soft bindings I didn't like. For me they are pretty much all the same. My preference is Ride bindings. I have a pair of double agents, a pair of Revolts and an...
Sounds like you had a fun day. Its good to get the kids out. I rode Killington today (Friday 2/22/13) WOW conditions were insanely good. I rode with my old buddies Dennis and Bobby. These guys can...
I rode today at Killington (Friday 2/22/13) WOW conditions were down right incredible for riding. I can definately see why people like to ride there. Wide slopes and awesome conditions. I was in...
I think the patroller you are reffering to is Gary. He can definately set and edge and turn his board pretty well. He rides both soft boot and plates. I did get a chance to ride with him on a weekend...
I rode today (thursday 2/19/13) at MC north. I have the week off so i figured I would get there early and ride for a few hours. The place was empty. None of the lower lots filled. Conditions weren't...
I rode for about 2 hours on Thursday. Condtions were pretty good. Finally Upper Straightaway is wide enough to make carved turns all the way down. The groomers had pushed enough snow to the edge so...
I don't think snowboards need a brake.
FANTASTIC day riding this morning (Sunday 2/10/13). I actually got to make a run before the lift opened with a few ski patrolers. WOW, conditions were insane. Almost a little to soft but it didn't...
Well it looks like we are getting about a foot or so of snow here in Vernon by Saturday afternoon. I will be riding at Mountain Creek first lift on Sunday morning. I highly doubt I will be bringing...
Hey Sharples, hope to ride with you this year. I have to hand it to Mountain Creek. They have really come through with making snow over the last week. Ever since to warm up and then the immediate...
Take A look here http://www.bomberonline.com/resources/Techarticles/your_butt.html
I find that most riders that are having difficulty with their heelside carve have the "butt out" problem....
Upper Straightaway was good but there is not alot of trail width to really round your turns. The upper half of Great northern was pretty soft for carving but should be a little firmer tomorrow so...
Mountain Creek really stepped up these last two days. They have been making snow around the clock and the conditions have been superb. I went riding today with Johnylo and cafercr (John and Joe) and...
