mattlucas 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 So it seems like in the last week the postings in Snow Talk have dropped way off. Is everyone getting depressed and have moved on to better things? Or are they still ready to go at a moments notice and super stoked about the coming season cause its going to Rock the F%#ckin Mike I ready to go. Super stoked. This is going to be an amazing season. Just a little slow or maybe just normal. But either way. I am so ready to get some Powder and can't wait for it to start!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 It will snow but I fugure in like a lamb out like a lion. much the same as BC last year. We had 3 to 4 good winters here back to back so we are due for a slow start. It will usally dump here around Xmas so thats what Im hoping for. I dont usally start untill mid dec anyway. last year was funky great snow everywhere by dec 15. anythong and everything could be skied. Link to post Share on other sites

What I wouldn't give to have this again. For me, its just too painful to check this site everyday...without snow at the end of November?!? ahrrrrrrrrghhhh! It doesn't help that I talked to my family last night and they were all finding gloves, goggles, etc. to shred (er, maybe slowly move through is more appropriate) the 30cm of pow in the mountains of CO. And then they get to eat turkey. lucky bastards. i had a bunch of raw fish for thanksgiving. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Author Share Posted November 29, 2003 Yes it does suck hearing from all my friends and family about all the snow they are getting all the time. But winter is coming and I'm ready for it whenever it comes. As for Thanksgiving we had it a month ago but I did go out for Pizza with the Hida Crew last night. When are you coming up here Erik. Better get your Hida Kit together. Link to post Share on other sites
enderzero 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 I didn't really care at the beginning of Nov when the snow was slow. But it is pretty much Dec now...and I am really, REALLY ready to start snowboarding. Yes, it is definitely worse that it is such an early season in N. America. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Author Share Posted November 29, 2003 And based on the replies to this post it seems most people have given up on winter and moved onto the summer sports. Oh well more powder for me and a few other people. Link to post Share on other sites
crazyski 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 Matty, I'll be coming around the mountain when there's snow. You got any of that stored in your garage? I still am new skiless, and i gotta get my bindings fixed before i ski any soft snow. perhaps next week. i'll get some turns in the wkd. of the 12-13, maybe. i still think everyone should do a snow dance. 10pm tonight, will work, after we're all nicely lubed (on beer and whatnot).

neversummer 0 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 At least you guys know the snow is coming sooner or later. I wont see snow, unless its out of the plane window until at least mid march and that'll be on a train going through China and Siberia. It's not that bad..we just got really lucky last year.

Ocean11 0 Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 Sweating my bollocks off here in Shikers today. It's hard to be amped about winter sports in these circumstances (from the Old Norse 'ømp'). Link to post Share on other sites
Teledude 0 Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 Crazyski where you from in CO?? end...great quote! That movie kills me!

mattlucas 0 Posted December 2, 2003 Author Share Posted December 2, 2003 This is good. This is Good. Winter is coming. I'm making a prediction. 2 metres of snow will fall tonight. It will cover all of Japan even the tropical parts. Link to post Share on other sites
