sooooo…im fucking pumped. i cant wait for snow to start falling in the south towns and for holiday to open. bought a new board and bindings. this should be sweet.
:headbang:
so who skis/boards? and where do you guys go? and is anyone as happy as i am about the season coming up. for all you none snow people i already no your going to say i hope it doesnt snow and you waste your money, or i hope it snows somewhere other than ski country. lol dont have to say it. i know theres a shit load of you guys
yeah last year before they built the jumps i got 2 concussions in about a month. straight-lined cindys and got cut off right at a lip. hit the ground facing up the hill after being 3 feet in the air off a downward lip. that sucked
and i love it. the deal i got with my board and bindings, i also got a free tune up with it, so im getting my old board resurfaced and sharped. now i can use that when conditions suck and my new one hopefully if conditions get good. :burnin:
buffalo boards i have found have cheaper shit. the kid that works there goes to Vermont to demo several different products. hes told to find stuff that cheap but good. i ended up getting bindings threw them i havent tried yet but ive heard good word about them, Flux Super Emblem Flannel. cost. $180 when i compared them online i found that they compared to burton and other companys bindings around $220 not trying to promote for them but i have actually got good deals and been treated pretty good there
I know about the dying thing, I knocked myself out COLD on Martigras last year, caught an edge and slammed the back of my head onto a sheet of ice… woke up 10-15 mins later surrounded by Orange Jackets.
Now… I’m sporting a Gyro Nine.9 W/audio; already saved me from a couple other head-knocks last year.
There are plenty of board/ski guys on here, and a bunch that work at places; so the NYspeed discount is even more.
i knocked myself out when they had the huge mounts of snow on mardigras. i hit it like a jump and came down fine, hit a tiny mount and caught my back edge. hitting ice…not fun
wish i would have known about a discount that way. but who knows if buffalo boards what have done that.
I hit one of the large jumps in the upper terrain park, and somehow managed to invert myself completly, causing me to land square on my head like i was diving into a pool. I really dont know how it happened as i have no memory of the entire incident. All I know is that a couple of the friends i was with dragged me to the side of the hill, and helped me back to my feet after a few minutes of me (A) Being unconscious and (B) Being unsure of exactly where i was and what was happening. I checked out with a mild concussion, and a dislodged disk or vertebrae or whatever it was in my back that shifted out of place. That shit still hurts to this day!
