Would love to get a slalom or GS race out here. Lake Louise downhill is this weekend and the wimmin in 2weeks beyond. Downhill is impressive, but hard to find a good spot for more than a glimpse of the racers. Love watching slalom and GS skiers carve those perfect train tracks.

Had a ski vacation at Killington March break in about 1978.best snow I had ever seen until that age. Big powder dump mid-week. We spent a lot of time on Superstar and Skylark, but back in the 70’s they were teeny skinny runs. I guess not so much any more.

Have a blast this weekend.

Fun fact, a few years ago they added a bunch of vertical to the top of Canada Olympic Park here at the edge of Calgary. C.OP. Has hosted many ski jumps cups, mogul world cups and aerial world cups. They wanted to be able to host a World Cup Slalom, so added a few hundred feet of vertical to accommodate.

I think a WC slalom in the city would be cool...

actually, I've been hardbootin on a board for a long time. learned to ski at 3, so didn't start boarding until like 20. I'm 52 so do the math. Been getting back into 2 planking but my knees prefer one plank

[buttahflake]

Woof, hard booter? Wow, I mean just wow. How does a fifty plus dude, ride a board? I mean really guy.
Take a lap

you must go fast, let gravity do all the work. I've got good knees, lower back is good if I wear my moto kidney belt. lotsa ballast in the belly. we carve pretty hard, son

FakeButterBitch better not introduce himself if we end up in the same parking lot. I'm a pretty chill guy, but I'm also XXL and have no patience for keyboard cowboy twerps that think it's cool to douche up an otherwise fun thread.
I still rock the old school Oakley googles from the moto days, before Iridium, just amber lenses for those flat light grey days at stowe.
BF is like a juicy beef fart in the gondola when we're smoking kind bud.
WTF, GUY ???!!!

Well, as crazy as the beast of the east is I'm sure they don't want some guy in XXL North Face punching out every dude in the Vale lot who's wearing big goggles. I think this will all blow over. Bf's years of exposure to high flouro waxes has taken a bit of a toll on his psyche.

On an outside chance, you don't have a relative in Idaho? last name Piotrowski?

If I had a temper, I'd be flaming all day at Big K. so many obnoxious kooks that can't ski.
IS BF an old hippie that ate too much acid and evidently huffed a lot of fumes ? I envision a smarmy pony tail short guy with a scraggly beard and BO.
not that there's anything wrong with that, GUY.
