this party animal got an invite

That's my girl Jane, a friends wife. They actually will probably be there. was supposed to rip with Spencer (pictured) Cody & Jane yesterday at Alpy - but I closed it down at Stevens instead.

I'm down for long board day! Will bring my skinnys but have no length.
Will this be a family type mix-in or dudes and daffy's only?

To bad the weather isnt looking to nice for Saturday. I was hoping for some blue

[BeardMech]

'blue' skies?

Why the fuck are you believing any weather forecast this far out?

Sun is a bonus for LBD... the Faithful will be there regardless.

Why the fuck are you believing any weather forecast this far out?

Especially when.....

LONG TERM...From the previous long term discussion: Extended
model solutions are once again inconsistent beginning Thursday
night into the weekend. On Thursday low level offshore flow comes
to an end with the transition to onshore flow late in the day.
This will cool off the Coast dramatically with highs in the
interior similar to Wednesday`s readings. Both the ECMWF and GFS
remain at odds with what to do with a shortwave spinning out of
the upper level low over northern California. The GFS has the
shortwave rapidly intensifying Thursday night over the area with
over a half inch of rain from about Seattle south. The ECMWF is
much weaker, slower and further south with this feature keeping it
mostly over Oregon and southwest Washington Friday night into
Saturday. The ECMWF then develops an upper level low to the north
of Washington on Sunday while the GFS has a weak open trough. Both
models transition the low level flow to onshore Thursday night
and Friday cooling high temperatures over the interior back down
into the 60s with highs back to near normal, mid 50s to lower 60s
for the weekend. With the lack consensus precipitation wise in the
models will stay with the broadbrush chance of showers forecast
for Friday through Sunday.

didnt say I would abandon the fun if raining. Just briefly looked at the forecast and was disappointed by what it said. I think I could count on one hand the amount of sunny days Ive skied this year

and fuck off

Whoah. You READ the forecast? You mean there's more than just the little picture of the weather for each day? Crazy.


I did something to my knee while climbing last night, not sure quite what but I expect to be good by the weekend. Worst case I'll just do groomers

LBD? It always RAINS! Get with the program.

Don't think I'll be making it up for the shenanigans. It appears my presence is desired on the Olympic Peninsula again, and it's an offer I damn near can't refuse. Hope you all have a blast, although I have no doubt that will be the case.

The wife stupidly took up a shift at her job sat night so Ill have to leave 11:30-12. I was hoping for a full kid free day. Oh well, still excited to rip.

[glademaster]

Did Volant ever make any 210+ cm boards? I'm sure they had stuff in the 200-205 range, but I don't recall if they ever got that long, shit, I learned to ski in 1st grade, and I was already on shaped skis. Despite having the swing weight of an I-beam, the idea of some long-ass Volants kinda trips my trigger. Ski the steel, steal the thunder!

Out of town this weekend, my 215 Blizzard DH's will be coming up with my bud Pat from the office.

[glademaster]

I'm definitely blowing it this weekend, but I have something worth reeling in on the line. I wouldn't make the schlep to PT for less than mediocre.

Man, ever since I joined this board, I looked forward to the long board thread every year. Love it. check for it daily once april rolls around..

Originally.. QB'd by? skier666? I think? Tyrone shoelaces? anyhow, I fucking love living vicariously through the shenanigans of long board day. You guys do the tradition proud. I'm looking forward to the pics from this year as much as I ever have. Get some!
