Heavenly was good that place is huge. I better learn something new next time I go though. Hopefully i can squeeze another couple times in thismonth. I boarded on Friday. Saturday looked more legit though.

i went to Cabo Wabo/ the casinos on Thursday. The scene was alright.

Alvin went boarding the same weekend? i just missed your @+# then. =P
 
^I'm going this weekend actually. Long time no see, last time I saw you I was WASTED. Haha.

Where can I rent a board and boots because I hear its always cheaper renting from shops surrounding Heavenly..

You practically take the gondola up to the slopes from a crap table, and the Casinos are open all night... Have fun!

I'm going on a burnout mission to Northstar tomorrow morning, it's been snowing so it should be nice. I'm going to wax my board right now

EDIT:
Got back from the renegade run to Northstar 1/2 hour ago. Traffic was boggin' on the way back, but it was a fun day. Not much powder but some good riding nonetheless, esp. on the backside

I traded in my last day pass for the Sierra/Northstar double whammy so I will bounce back up very soon.

Kobe Fan: How'd the surgery and recovery go? When will you be back on the slopes?

I always try to stock up in the beginning of the season with all the promotions.

Skidazzle, sacsnow, warren miller shows, vitamin water promotions etc.

I end up getting like 10 tickets for around $200 before the season starts so i dont have to worry about finding some or paying $60 a ticket .

Hey Jeri!
Kobe Fan, thats only about 2 weeks now, good news! As for tricks, no sir I've just been working on carving, bombing and taking a few tree runshere and there. I bought my first board and gear last season, and didn't have much experience before that. I'm pretty sure I can keep up though
wink.gif
Are you throwing down for the NikeTalk jibfest or what?

We should have a NT summit(no pun intended) at Northstar the week you get backon the board! I usually go on weekdays.

I did the renegade run to Sierra today, it was a good time. The snow was surprisingly a bit slow and choppy in spite of hollering powder on the snow report,but I shouldn't complain.

Northstar/ Sierra.

Vitamn Water had a promotion where if you bought 10 vitamin waters at Raleys, you get a free Boreal ticket.

Warren Miller shows were $20, and you get a free ticket to heavenly.

Went to Northstar(Monday) and Sugarbowl (Sunday) over the weekend. It pretty much dumped all day both days. Sunday was a little better due to less wind butthe visibility was horrible. Northstar was

Ive been meaning to find the Stash, but i either go to earlier or late in the season so the path is closed.

Which way exactly do i take to find it?

Haha, I rode the Stash today. From the Tahoe Zephyr Express you ride towards Lookout Mountain, but cut to the right before you get there...

Northstar was bangin off the hook today!!! There was fresh powder to pillage and it was so bloody warm/sunny. Unbelievable...

Kobe Fan, I'm riding a 162 Palmer Burn with some Burton Bindings(17 degrees in the front and 15 degrees at the back) and some 32 boots - I really like thesetup, it's a great first board.
 
PWalrus and Kobe Fan....Do you guys just do day trips or do you stay the night in Tahoe? I'm looking for a cool spot to stay in North Shore wherethere's some sort of night life.

For the most part i do day trips, but if i want to stay over, i just go to Reno which is 30 minutes away, cheap hotels, and night life.


Sierrasnowboard is the truth, got my setup there.

Mostly day trips for me as well, since they fit real snugly into my schedule. At the beginning of the season I stayed a few nights in a KingsBeach cabin, 20 minutes from Northstar. I don't know much about the nightlife except if that's the main reason you're going to Tahoe, just stay onthe South shore near the casinos, or head to Reno which isn't too far from the North shore resorts. I only go to ride

Thanks guys. I go mainly for riding as well. I know about South Shore and Reno. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on a hot spotto hang wit some snow bunnies around Truckee. I'm just tired of the resorts in South Shore and there really isn't much in Reno.

Kobe Fan...when you coming off the DL???
