I hit the hill opening day and about the 5th run down this happened, this is why u don’t sit down on the hill in a dark unlit area, I’m pretty sure my board drilled her in the back, I did everything I could to stop! Sent from my iPhone 5 ---

i love when people wait after the bottom of a kicker and think its ok. I scoot out the way asap if i fall from a kicker or jump. I went on monday and the conditions were great. 0 line at the 2 lifts.They had a ton of cool kickers everywhere and 2 sick spines at the bottom of northwind that were perfect for easy 360s. The little rail park had a couple more intermediate features for being so early into the season so it was dope ---

The plan was to leave work at 3 and go straight to HV for a bit tonight. Going to have to watch how this storm develops though because my car doesn’t have much ground clearance. I’m more worried about the 20-30 mph winds with 40mph gusts and how shitty that may make skiing with a 6 year old. ---

Winds like that definitely take the fun away. - - - Updated - - - Almost got my trip planned. Wasn’t going to have one this year but looks like my brother is trying to make one happen. Feb 12-14 it looks like we are getting a condo to ski in and out at Jay Peak, VT ---

At home (EA) the snow is piling up to at least 16", I was surprised Springville doesn’t have nearly as much. ---

Some fun runs with the kid last night at Holiday. She’s gone from stopping a bunch of times to control her speed to skiing the entire way down and keeping up with the old man. I have a feeling I should have got back into skiing before teaching her because she’s learning faster than I am and I’d afraid she’s going to be out skiing me in just a couple years (she’ll be 7 in March). ![https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/1472751_10203068093853186_1780741386_n.jpg](https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/1472751_10203068093853186_1780741386_n.jpg) [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2013-2014-ski-snowboard-thread/232843.md?page=4) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2013-2014-ski-snowboard-thread/232843.md?page=6)
