    That clip is ridiculous!!! SOOOOO loving the stoke from the weekend, and looking forward to a few laps in the woods for leftovers this Saturday at Smuggs!

    On the Worth front, we are trying to fill a production run in April before we lose our slot, we need another 12 or so pair to fill it out. If any of you are interested, or know of someone who is, remember we will make it worth your while!!! Oh, and Maggot pricing is available, e-mail me for details.

    As was I, busting some balls. Lots o super skiing done by all, nice to see so many pics of the good times.
    Sunday was the day for sure with the light crowds.

    Not liking the 35` shit I see right now.

    Do I get a discount if I refer a pair to myself?

    In all seriousness, there's no excuse for any determined (addicted?) EC skier not to give these sticks a try. Thus far my personal faves are the 185 DBs and the 185 Georges but that's subject to change, as it has been really easy to demo all of the different sidecuts, cores and sizes. Really looking forward to trying the 185 DBs at MRG tomorrow.

    Thanks again to the Weasel and Akok for staging a great demo day and extra thanks to Weasel for working with the Bottle Woman and I, enabling us to sample a bunch of different skis!

    That would be the maggot discount I was referring to, only better.... :-)

    That's just how we roll!

    It's looking like we will not make the Magic demo day, though, folks.... :-( But if anyone wants to get on a pair after Smuggs (and the conditions are amenable) let us know, we will do our best to make it happen.

    Y'all can have your Bigfoot, your Nessie or what have you but PRESENTED HERE is a once in lifetime opportunity to view a Snow Leopard in its natural habitat. As always, this a real picture, taken by real people TODAY. Thankfully, nobody was harmed while capturing the movements of this amazing beast.

    ^^^^ Looks like you uncovered it in some avalanche debris...was it a 10,000 year old specimen, thawed from its long sleep by the abnormally warm winter?

    Dear god if I knew you were such a risk taker before, I would have never gone out touring with you!! Hot damn you gotta watch those Snow Leopards!

    Steaux tomorrow for me and the gf. Hoping it snows more than expected, but since NOAA's website is down (WTF NOAA?!), I'm not entirely sure how much is expected... Hmm, guess that means that any snow will be more than expected, right?...
    go Go GO!

    Nice GoPro forest and pow shots.

    Approx 2" new overnight, mix of pow and graupel, wind makes it hard to measure.

    News is reporting there was 2 slides on Mansfield over the weekend, again BE CAREFUL out there.

    Gary says, looks like Magic skiers will be able to put away the grass skis Thursday.

    Nice pics bushwhacker! Going to have to use my Stowe voucher one of these days.

    Snowing hard here, 3-4" at the house. Hoping for 6+ at the mountain for some morning laps.

    So BTW most everything on the chin was stable as was Hellbrook proper, but the Northeast face of the Adams apple for sure had some sketchiness to it.

    Were heard womphing and caused fracture lines that propagated up the hill but nothing did slide and the slope WAS very steep 40-50 degree range. again this was on sunday afternoon it could have gotten better or worse by then.

    We decided to go one at a time as we yo yoed some amazing powder and just stopped in places that were out of the line of fire.

    I imagine some of the steep gullies in the notch are really sketch right now but I do not have any time to hit those anyways till thursday just a heads up for others.

    While those maps can clearly suck it, a southern storm would be fkn awesome for magic. Comp is this weekend so a refresher would be cause for rejoicing and whatnot.

    3" of blower powder on my deck this morning and it was still coming down when I left for work. I think this calls for taking a day off Thursday
    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.

    Not one to brag but I am not only the Best Skier On The Mountain but likely also The Most Interesting Man in the World. Again, not bragging, just sayin'.

    Will be slaying the (hopefully) angry inch at MRG today. Got to get some use out of that midweek pass

    If you see an old guy and his wife skiing Birdland on Worth skis tell us we suck, ask for change or ignore us altogether.

    And yes, hopefully Magic gets it's due... just in time. Shooting for Sunday there, but maybe Friday?

    For those in the know the super secret location in the High Breadloaf is now "in" (mostly), though it could use another foot or so.

    I really want to get to Magic this weekend and ski some decent snow. This storm needs to pan out for S. VT.
