No substitute for it. I'm not getting near as many days this year as I was last season and I can tell a huge difference in my riding. I suck even more than usual. :laugh:
thanks yet again everyone, its nice to see so much positive feedback. also thanks to BA for helping me out when he can Hot Laps With Cro The Angry Snowboarder
Stickers, gas-pump ads, now Never Summer vids on angrysnowboarder.com... at this rate it won't be long before Cr0 is the universal symbol of snowboarding
But seriously, as others have said, super smooth... I'm so jealous of how easy he makes it look :thumbsup:
Cro, do they have a full time coaching program through a Tahoe resort/academy/club?
Since I'm asking, snowolf.... Do they have one up at hood that you know of?
I'm putting my son on the club here in vail next year. I think it's fairly inexpensive, aside from travel and competitions... Like $4500/year for sept-April 6 day a week coaching 830-1330.... If he likes it and competes well it will be hard to move from here for a while unless I find a similar program.
yea theres things like that here but mainly competition teams that ride on weekends and some kids ride on weekdays who get home schooled. the mtn i worked at is planning on opening an academy but thats still in the works. living in tahoe was a ton of fun this year but work didnt quite work out how i planned it so ive been thinking about moving out to colo next year and looking for a place to work around breck.
It's much cheaper to live in breck/summit. I would have gone with team summit but I'm in vail. SSCV also has more exposure..... I don't know what the pay scale for coaches is but the programs go virtually year round in vail and 6 days a week.... Team summit is similar.
Also, most of the instructors that actually live here year round that I know live down in edwards/Avon/mint urn or some other place than in vail. That means no free bus to work but you do get free parking..... With all the dips hits around I try to only ride the bus once or twice a week anyhow....
Working with team summit you would have summit stage bus to any of their mtns living in breck, silver thorn, frisco, dillon, keystone or copper...... But no free parking anywhere. Breck and copper are known for their terrain parks. Vail is coming around nicely on their parks with the new crew they have.
