Opening Day at Blue

[AtomicSkier]

Conditions were really nice, but i just died. Second day of the year, and by my 5th run of so i was hurting. Ahhh, it burned, but it was a good burning, needless to say, i didn't ski that much, and I didn't see any PASR stickers.

Hey, I know what you mean. In my report on Roundtop, I blamed "pasty snow" as my reason for quitting today. That's partly true, but the other part of that truth is that my legs were kaput! I got to about 8 runs or 5,000 feet of vert and I was feeling it in my legs. I shoulda ridden that doggone bike more this year! Those last few runs I made today were really wussy!

 

I did manage to hit 410 feet/min, while I was still fresh, on my fourth or fifth descent of a stupid blue square run (black runs not open yet at RT). All in all, it felt good to be out there. Worth the 9 month wait!

haha yup! I took 5 runs or so on a diamond, and I was done, fried, finished. Hopefully Lazy Mile opens tomorrow, a blue sqaure, so I can take it easier on myself.

Yeah I am going to blue tomorrow from around 10 til about 3 and I really hope they get lazy mile open.

 

Ha this morning I was at school have asleep during the announcements and then at the end they said and here is a sneek peak of blue mountain, they open for the season today...from that moment on I just couldn't focus.
