looks like fucking vermont.

Listed updated...Phillycore, Mbike, and Schif bringing tables. Schif bringing speaker. JFDan bringing rolls.

yup...someone mentioned it in line first thing. safety is no accident.

Today was better than expected. I for one loved the firm, smooth, conditions on Razors. ROTD for me. Also, day 60.

I've assigned them to you.

Party starts ~7:15am on 3/8/15. We'll go off what we brought last year. When someone claims something, I'll put their name next to it. I'll just include the names from last year on most items. I think we'll skip eggs, and do bagels/cream cheese and breakfast meats. The eggs took too long last time. If you have something else to bring, post, and I'll add it to the list.

Those first turns this AM....so good. Today was day 50 at Blue this year for me, 59 overall. JADIP.

JADIP

Tomorrow AM and both days this weekend. I hear there is a surprise in store for Saturday.

Bumps were good tonight.

Today was better than I expected. Some nice bump skiing. Wish it sunny and 10 degrees warmer though. Perhaps tomorrow....

I'll be there Sunday.

The only coaching that went on was how to drink. I raced with a bunch of kids who were top of their game and grew up racing at Stowe and Sugarbush. They crushed beers at the top of the race course to make Mountain Creek *slightly* challenging.

I'm 100% self taught, except one or two days in the Explorers program when I was like 5. Watching Youtube video really helped me visualize how I should be skiing a race course. It takes more balls on top of skills to execute the plan though. It's all about being right on the edge.

I know...but this is PASR...every thread gets thread jacked. In all seriousness, I'm always trying to improve my skiing and become an all around better skier. Racing, bumps, trees, slarving, etc, but I don't know where PSIA fits in. I have a hard time thinking PSIA in particular would take my racing or bump skiing to the next level.

JohnnyLaw is exceptionally passionate about skiing. He loves Vermont. I love to say I hate it I also don't think a PSIA Level 999 instructor is a better all around skier than JohnnyLaw. You think some Elk instructor could slarve some huge fucking 100m radius turns down some 47 degree ramp at Mach 2? Hell no, they'd be trying to perfectly time their pole plant. No disrespect to PSIA instructors, I just don't use that as a measure of good skiers.

I hate Vermont....so why would I goto Elk?

I'm 100% for March 28th.

NMDW was the ROTD. Switchback was a distant second. I saw as cold as 0F on my drive up. About 9F to start. Mid 20's when I left. I'm ready for spring skiing!

I'll miss the early sun while skiing, but I do like the 4pm after work ski sessions in complete sunlight. I'll be there tomorrow and Sunday.

yes, but it'll make 6:30am feel 5:30am.

whats the call for tonight? still 3-6"?

A few wins for team PASR tonight...we didn't come in last...we won a bunch of prizes, and JohnnyLaw won a 5 night/4 day trip to Sugarbush! Also, thedudeabides is skiing really well. huge improvement. I'm going to convince JohnnyLaw to grow a pair and start cross blocking. He has serious potential.

final night tomorrow! bring your A game fellas.

Today was pretty good. Not quite as good as yesterday, but it'll do. TRKT even had some groupies today. Toast you forgot to mention that MattEdge was there. Oh...and happy day 50 to me!
