Thought you were a painter.

Big thanks to Rusty Groomer and the rest of the crew for showing a new mexi Pennsylvanian around today. Was fun hanging last night too. Good folks. Super bummed I had to drive back down to PA, wanted to hook back up and buy you guys a beer. Enjoy the pow tomorrow! I'll be back for sure, hopefully soon.

Great skiing with you, hope your drive was smooth. Nice to have some fresh blood around here.

Fun day skiing everything with Gary FT, RG, you, Dex, MNIAW, and a revolving cast of characters.

Got one of RG

Edit: 3-4 down at the base. Pure blower. Cold, but the real wind isn't here yet. Extensive grooming in all the right places will yield untracked fun early.

I'd love to try some stuff out rather than buying blind as I've done for almost every purchase in the past. My success rate has not been high and I'm getting tired of flipping skis. I'll be around all weekend (and next weekend, and the one after...) so let me know.

That sounds kind of like my moment deathwishes. But I am not near the saratoga springs area, so won't be able to let you test them, unless you are headed down toward So. VT sometime soon.

Absolute hoot skiing with you lads (and lassies). Fabulous 1st day skiing the east. The "fuck you Benny I'm skiing Magic" promo has its first happy customer.

So the stepson's wife's uncle in Sugarbush rips like you Magic freaks. I'm getting fucking worked out here...EC skiing is real. I think I'm going to start looking at lines in a whole new way ("you can ski in there...??"

**Magicsnowboard** · 02-16-2015, 07:38 AM

Something must have been in the water this weekend. Ripping trees and pow on Saturday, followed by random dance parties in -10 degrees last night. People seemed committed to getting after it in all aspects.

Thank you for participating in the inaugural promo. Don't forget to flip him the bird if your flight home takes you over Summit County.

**Binky** · 02-16-2015, 09:24 AM

We need promo shirts...

**BigDaddy** · 02-16-2015, 09:45 AM

Ha ha.. awesome touch with the negative image... well played!

**Timberridge** · 02-16-2015, 10:56 AM

Beautiful job there, Binky!

**MMP** · 02-16-2015, 11:13 AM

The skiing today is ridiculous. Whatever your pleasure, freezing your face off on perfect uncrowded groomers, or leftovers in the woods (plenty) , .....just get here.

Considering how huge I sent it this morning putting on socks and shoes, this weekend is looking pretty damn good. Dare I say I'll be good to go?? I believe I shall.

Having been there, your attitude plays a big role in back recovery and yours is looking good. and socks can be a fucking bitch!

**ex-powderbroker** · 02-16-2015, 06:58 PM

So where are the photos of Gary? Did he poutine when he was supposed to be quiching?

Seriously glad you made it out again, hope the research went well!

I'm sure it was. A side story on those hats. RG got those last year as a fundraiser for a roofer that got hurt. One of the Magic employees recently lost a child to illness, and RG donated the hats and raised about 2 grand for her since she has been unable to work.

It's a nice community, and Shitdick is the beating(off) heart of the place.

Nice job Rusty.
