[Domsz06]

ha ha ha, I hear you there!! I just hope I can get to tahoe this weekend to board!! I wanna it the slopes so BAD!! oh yeah and hit the bars

[mtnsmith]

Nice, enjoy some of that new snow. That is the single largest thing I miss about living in Florida, no easy access to snow sports. I just talked to my aunt and uncle, they are at their house in Jackson Hole this week, and they have been absolutley dumped on with fresh powder everyday. We wanted to get in a spring trip but me finding a job has take priority for some strange reason.

I just skied Jackson a few weeks ago. Had a BLAST! Took a look at Corbets, but didn't have the balls....maybe next trip

I'm glad the mountains are getting snow. I am headed up in about 2 weeks!

[mtnsmith]

Awesome, Corbet's wasn't open when we were there in early Jan yet, but the Hobacks opened for the last couple days which was nice and we got to run a little of Saratoga Bowl at the end of our stay as well. Just to keep it on topic, did you go to the Jackson Brew Pub at all? That's a lot of fun.

tequilla where are you heading?

Keystone, CO. March 18th-21st. Probably one of those days at Breck.

This is the last time that my ski trip will be "just the guys" The wife is planning on coming with us next year. So we will be have a great time! This trip is also probably the last time I will be mostly skiing. I want to learn to snowboard, but want one last trip with the two planks....I'm a good skier..or was, but my wife wants to snowboard.

Goals:

"Get drunk at altitude" -interestingly enough, I have never drank more than a couple beers while skiing....usually too exhausted.

[Domsz06]

ha ha, the altitude will help you out a lot! It's great fun!

If I may, buy these. We were up last weekend and my best friends dad, basically my dad too, did snowboarding the last day and broke his wrist they found out. I have them, and the work great! I took som really hard falls this trip on some double blacks we were on and My wrists are grea!! Well worth the money! I have the double one's sinc they were out of singles, I would recommend the singles, but hey, each to his own! I highly recommend them!!

Give yourself a day or two, else you will be sick as a dog

Thanks, I will get some. I have heard people really tear up their wrists learning to snowboard. Their *** too. I think they make padded pants for that.

You give me too little credit But you are right, I don't plan on drinking the town dry the first night. The second night maybe.

I am so freaking pumped....It has been a couple years since I have gotten to go.

If I learn to snowboard, I figure the likelyhood of me going every year increases substantially.

[Domsz06]

keystone doesn't have as much as a night life as breck.

Yes you will tear your @$$ and wrist up. They have a booty pad that straps to your butt, my friends both had one, hers has helped her since she cracked her tail bone. He should have had wrist guards. Let me see if I can find you the tail bone pad.

[Domsz06]

here are some really extreme pads, they might be overkill

oh yeah, GET A HELMET!!!! again I got one and it has saved my @$$ this last trip as the last day I ran smack dab into a tree, due to a back flip.

[Tequilasun]

I have a pro-tec helmet, it's a wakeboard helmet, think that matters?

I am looking for one with bluetooth though, so I can play my ipod through it...Just haven't found the right deal yet.
