O/T Snowboarding - Skiing season. Posted on: 22.11.2010 by Shay Wyche Anyone planning on getting away this year for some decent snow? I seen a few posts from guys last season and was curious how many people on here can't get enough of the white stuff (innuendo intended).Sorry if your in the southern hemisphere or in the tropics, but I'm excited about the upcoming season. The forecast for some real snow is in the next few days for the North of Scotland. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQpl7rpBETY | |

Flat as in even trees are scarce and trees rarely reach 30-40 feet. The dirt is red...but the girls, no doubt, solid. Texas/Oklahoma girls. I'll leave it at that. Back to snow, got distracted...that happens alot round here. Hopefully you find some cheap gear soon. If you're in the states...there are places clearing it out. That doesn't fix what she did, that's just mental. |

| Maxwell Zubke 23.09.2012 | One of my favorite things to do is to create genre specific sets. Generally these aren't sets that I would put out. They are more for matching and idea generating purposes. When I ride up the lift I will set markers and take notes on parts I (dis)liked. After a months worth of riding I will compile all of my stuff into a big set. This method also ensures that the tunes and mixes making their way into my performances are stuff that really popped out at me. Another reason snowboarding and DJing go well together is the variety of music! As a DJ, we have a unique opportunity to express ourselves through our own musical influences. I find that the mountain is a great place to cultivate that skill! I listen to funk, soul, jazz, you name it. |
| Benjamin Sieh 23.09.2012 | Dude I can't wait for the parks to open up! I'm still pretty new to snowboarding but hell if falling on my face 10 times isn't a good enough way of learning then i dont know what is |
| Shay Wyche 23.09.2012 | MODS - move to O/T, please. Ta. |
| Shay Wyche 23.09.2012 | Reviving an old classic. Anyone pining for deep snow and blue skies? |

Unfortunately I won't be headin up to vermont this season, but i'll be getting a season pass to a local mt. this year. a quick question..say you were to do a gig at a resort...how long could you keep your gear outside in the cold without it being damaged? |

My wife went down to the storage to get a suitcase out as I was leaving for a trip to the US. She noticed they were "covered in mold/mildew". I go on my trip to the US as usual. This was end of October. Fast forward to this past weekend. I mention I'm going boarding in January and she, in passing, mentions that I have to buy all new gear (except the board & bindings) b/c she threw the rest out. She even through out my fucking helmet. As if not losing ALL the gear was bad enough (Most of it was an accumulation of Xmas gifts over the years, and the bag was paid at an inflated cost since I live in Japan where people love to getting financially sodomized) I wear a size 13 shoe. Chances of finding boots that fit me here? Zero. I could've got them when I was in Cali last month no problem. Instead I now have to pay international shipping. When I told her what new wear costs down at the Burton shop her eyes got big (which is saying a lot since she's Japanese). I'm pretty sure I have a get out of jail free card now in case I accidentally fuck a 19 year old. |
| France Leeser 28.11.2010 | I am, I own a Burton Nug (for those boarders who want to know, it was previously ridden by Jeremy Jones ) I try to get out as much as possible and hit up the best Superpipe on the east coast (Seven Springs, PA). If anyone is heading out there this season, gimme a shout! I'd be down to snowboard with actual DJ's than the latter (15 year old kids who pirate VDJ and try to make beats :P) |
| Shay Wyche 28.11.2010 | http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/2326?area=FK1 - edit - click on Mondays forecast. I'm supposed to be flying to London on Wednesday, I don't know whether I want it to keep snowing hard or clear up. |
| nayit ruiz jaramillo 28.11.2010 | Its getting worse mate or rather, better in this case. We aint had it down here (seems strange saying down here but you are way North) but we will. I was living next to a huge hill until recently and i always wished i could board down it but the snow only came once and i had to drive to my g/fs in Wales that morning so i missed out... UK just is not geared for snow. It effs the place up. |
| Shay Wyche 28.11.2010 | Four or five inches of powder fell outside my house in the last two days which is very unusual for November. I don't live next to a mountain, but did get manage to get a few hours on a local hill today. The kids thought I was cool and I wasn't in the mood for telling them the truth. More forecast for tomorrow , so I might even get the day off work as I depend on getting around the country.. |
| Shira Callie 28.11.2010 | If I am understanding correctly....you are on the receiving end of Massive Dumps!?!? If this is true....must see. want. |
| Estela Requa 24.11.2010 | I might be heading up cairngorm this weekend actually. Apparently going to be a decent dump leading up to the weekend. Im keen to get my season started!! |

Your super lucky to be there. Thanks again |
