What mountains to you go to for ski/snowboard?first snow fall here in Ontario. but it's not going to stick around. But it's a nice start!!
whichever are easy to get to lol. West Jet flies direct to Prince George so been looking at Powder King. In Quebec i'd like to trek a little further up to Le Massif this year.What mountains to you go to for ski/snowboard?
I haven't tried Powder King. I hear the snow is amazing but ts not that big as far as terrain. If you come out to BC midweek I'd be happy to toss you the keys to our place. It's small (single bedroom) but it's mid mountain so full ski in ski out from our doors, pub inside the building and has an indoor hot tub and pool. Lifts open on November 22nd so we'll be up there every weekend until Easter or so. We're doing xmas to NYE there too so lots of riding time.whichever are easy to get to lol.

Condo @ Big White must be top notch, dude. That's awesome for the family!
did you ride skateboards? long or short boards? Surf?Every winter for the past 10 years. I've promised myself I would try snowboarding. I think I lose my enthusiasm because I know the first couple times are going to suck. How long do you think it would take a green as green can be beginner to stand up and take a ride down a hill. Keep in mind I am an insane athlete who is incredibly strong.

Can you ski? If so you'll have an advantage just knowing how snow reacts and you'd be comforacomf to hit the chair day one and avoid T-bars and bunny hills. I remember when I was learning my ass killed from falling and my wrists hurt from pushing myself up all day. I bet a guy like you could be up and riding enjoying it all in about 5 days out. If you packed some Costco dogs and fountain pop then I'd say two days max.Every winter for the past 10 years. I've promised myself I would try snowboarding.

That's the problem. I think I need to go to a place where I can snowboard 5 days in a row. I can't see packing up the car and making the drive to spend the day falling on my ass for 8 hours.Can you ski?

Come out west and I'll be happy to show you around and push you into a tree well.

I either forgot or cheaped on and don't buy insurance this year. Maybe in 2019 I can skate up there tho. Mannn, would be sick to ride a real mountain and real snow! Thank you as always for the offer. I'll let ya know!K @Kaladin Stormblessed you got your shit ready? You coming up to my area? I got a place for you to stay now.
I was an athletic kid, but grew up rollerblading. Took me awhile to ride well, but that sprbably because all my boys were advanced already so I had to finagle the best way I could to slow them down as little as possible,and as a result, I didn't focus enough on toeside edge and carvingEvery winter for the past 10 years.

great way to describe itOnce you are comfortable on the toe edge, snowboarding is a dream. Cause standing isn't hard. And HEEL-edge is natural and safe
great way to describe it
I was decent after one day and like 4-5 runs...but I was already very comfortable on a long board and surfboard, although those don't require an edge in the ground at all times like boarding does...my friend who didn't skate or surf got so beat up on day one he never rode again(went back to skiing)
Pretty hilarious. A bunch of people gather on a run and watch all these people ski/board down in bikinis, kangaroo costumes and shit and many are shit faced. The pub in our building is the after party that the photos see at. Special of the day a snag, is that an Aussie thing? Looks like a hotdog weenie on a slice of bread and that's it lol. I got the songs and fries.Fucking awesome
