The Ski/Snowboarding thread

[Gravy]

Here is the thread to post your ski/ snowboarding trips, photos, planning ect!
We have a decent group of 10 or so that are all on RME that ride every Saturday. We usually get 5-12 in the group.
Most of us have Canyons passes, but post up when, where and what you're riding and we can get more people out and motivated on the snow!


And just to get things started here is a little season opening edit for your enjoyment.

(Watch and 1080p for best results & subscribe if you like it).

We've had a number of RME members ride with us in the past and would like to invite anyone to come along.
Please feel free to PM me if you'd like to join us,
and I can usually help with discounts.
No particular skill level necessary.

Im hopin to get out a time or 2 this year

 

[skiboarder]

Wow. I've got 17 days in this year already.

 

[moab_cj5]

I have a season pass to Snowbasin. I have 2 days so far, and should have had 3 but my Jeep is waiting on parts. I will get back up as soon as the Jeep is fixed.

 

[Gravy]

Skiboarder, 17?! That's great!
Moab_cj5 I love the Basin!

I've got 8. Not bad for a weekend warrior that doesn't ride Sundays.
Just to clarify, that video is just the first edit for the year.

So we are going New Years Day if anyone would like to join.

 

[skiboarder]

I work at basin as an instructor. Mondays and Wednesdays are my days to work you should look for me and we'll take a run.

 

[Kevin B.]

What ages/skill levels do you teach, skiboarder? I think I'm going to put my 8 y/o on a board this year, but I don't know how good a teacher I'll be.

Also here is the first ever edit from another member of our group (who also happens to be an RME member).

Not bad for a first edit.

 

[sixstringsteve]

I could do Monday nights or Friday nights. I'm not really a huge fan of night boarding, but it's sure better than sitting at home.

 

[Kevin B.]

I'll ride at night if there's powderish, but I'm not a fan of riding the groomed stuff once it's iced over. Hurts too much when I fall.

I like Thursdays or Fridays.

 

[Gravy]

Well you're welcome to come on Saturday with us. It's just slightly more affordable at night.

 

[moab_cj5]

I work at basin as an instructor. Mondays and Wednesdays are my days to work you should look for me and we'll take a run.

I normally only make it up on Saturdays, but will keep that in mind if I can swing a powder day next year...

 

[Nappy]

Brighton nights sound good to me.

 

[skiboarder]

What ages/skill levels do you teach, skiboarder? I think I'm going to put my 8 y/o on a board this year, but I don't know how good a teacher I'll be.

I teach all ages and skill levels. Sorry, but you'll be a horrible teacher. I don't teach my own kids. That doesn't go well. 8 y/o should be fine. that also depends on how athletic he is. I am booked till about the Jan,4. Pm me and maybe we could work something out.

 

[Kevin B.]

Sorry, but you'll be a horrible teacher. I don't teach my own kids.

lol, I'll defer to the voice of experience. I'll be in touch.

 

[UFAB]

Any peops want to hit up Sundance and all it's glory. We are down.

If you ever need size 10 boots or 158-162 decks, I got ya covered from split boards to the Burton mystery.

 

[Gravy]

Canyons tomorrow! powda! who wants to go!

 

[moab_cj5]

Ill be a Snowbasin tomorrow again. If you aren't going to the Canyons, come up north!
