Anybody wanna go boarding at Rose tomorrow?
 
I'm thinking of getting some breakfast and coffee around 9am or so and heading up thereafter. It's amazingly nice considering the lack of snow we've had...or at least it was on Tuesday...

Yes.

except:

- I have to work.
- I suck at snowboarding.
- You have my snowboard.
- Being cold sucks.
- I'd have to get up before 10am.
- It's only a matter of "when" not "if" I will suffer a serious injury if I try to keeps snowboarding.

...so I think I'll pass. ;)

Don't worry, you're not missing much...you're board is archaic. But it saved my good board from getting chewed up by rocks in the powder the first day I went. It's a good samaritin board. :D

:lol: Nice to know something that's 3 years old is already "archaic". I guess snowboards age faster than computers, 'cause I've got a 5 year old computer here at work that I use everyday and wouldn't consider "archaic" quite yet.

I'm not complaining...it's just heavy as hell. It's got to be 4 years old. I think they stopped making the Floater before 2002, but I could be wrong. It's actually a touch longer and wider than my other board so it's great in the powder, but it feels like a plank of cement on the runs. :p I'm probably just used to my Burton Bullet...which is 3 years old and it shows. Soon your board will have epoxy all over the top and P-tex filling all the scratches on the bottom. :D

cody 2005-12-16 06:43 PM

-Catching an edge while going way too fast and laughing hysterically at myself :D

tysonK 2005-12-16 07:08 PM

what's a gaper?

cody 2005-12-16 07:16 PM

Gay rapper?

tysonK 2005-12-16 10:09 PM

Seriously, don't dress like a gay rapper, if you are going to hit the slopes.

cody 2005-12-16 10:18 PM

I've been meaning to try snowboarding for years. I used to ski every so often when I was a kid.

Not that I ever have any time in the winter nowadays. . .

Boyakasha! Ahahahaha!

bxracer69 2005-12-17 12:39 AM

gapers are not gay rappers but they are posers and tourists who come up and stare or "gape" at the lake and the mountians, we call em gapers up here

cody 2005-12-17 04:09 PM

Man, what a great day. The snow is still loose and powdery on most of the runs and I didn't fall more than once or twice...I almost always hurt myself a little, but I'm getting good apparently. :D

Oh, and I'm a gaper according to your definition Boxerracer. I was "gaping" at both lakes and the awesome weather patterns today.

bxracer69 2005-12-17 04:12 PM

It was a pretty good day, cept my for my car.

its not boxer racer its BX racer
BX=Boardercross

cody 2005-12-17 07:44 PM

My bad.

cody 2005-12-20 12:30 AM

I'm heading up again in the morning and possibly Wednesday too...

JonnydaJibba 2005-12-20 07:18 AM

Yeah I've only been once...because after that time by snowboard mysteriously disappeared from where I left it. So now I have 2 passes that I can't use! Hooray.

cody 2005-12-20 08:56 AM

That sucks...but you should borrow, rent, or buy one...today is going to be epic.

JonnydaJibba 2005-12-20 09:49 AM

I know, so was Sunday, and Monday, and every other freakin day I see snow capped mountains and realize that I have nothing to ride on. I love it love it love it!

cody 2005-12-20 04:56 PM

Well, today wasn't quite epic...the powder got all crusty when it got rained on and froze. Once the sun hit it, it was cool though.

MattR 2005-12-20 09:51 PM

It was raining hard at Boreal when I came over the pass tonight...bye bye snow.

cody 2005-12-20 09:56 PM

Yah, the snow level is supposedly 8K feet tonight and tomorrow. I'll figure out if I'm going tomorrow in the morning.

JonnydaJibba 2005-12-21 07:21 AM

Somebody give me a snowboard...

DARKSTI 2005-12-21 10:12 AM

fvcking rain...anything below 8K is gonna get a big hit of rain.
