Riding In High 50's Weather - Snowboarding Forum

lcstriker07 · 03-10-2009, 07:46 PM

Hitting the local hill tomorrow. No terrain park, no advanced terrain at all actually but any chance to plank down a mountain and I'm down. My buddy is bringing his girl so I'll prolly be riding greens and some blues all day. Good chance to practice my ground tricks if you ask me!

Anyways, Last time I rode it was like 64 and I was just wearing my water proof outer layer and still sweat like a hooker in church. What would you guys suggest so I'm not miserably hot but still not uncomfortably wet. I was considering a Zippy I wear on cold mornings or just a layer of UA cold gear with a double layered T-Shirt.

Just dont crash and then you can ride in a speedo if you want

stoepstyle · 03-10-2009, 07:57 PM

lcstriker07 · 03-10-2009, 08:11 PM

How do you know where I am!? ^^^^^ (creepy!)

Anyways, we're just gonna hit ober one last time before they close sunday. They have this really nice bank that acts as a 1/4 pipe, so it's a good spot to practice handplants(season goal).

I would have rather hit sugar, but he didn't want to have his girl up there if it turned to a sheet of ice like last week. I'm sure it was above freezing that night, but something about when the groomer runs and the sun goes down, I swear there is no soft snow to be found. At least that was the case last thursday night. Plus ober does free college passes on wednesday.

^^^^ That's tempting! Too bad I gotta finish paying my tuition this weekend.

So today was a bust! There are rocks all over the place, like some little kid just picked up handfulls of rocks and threw them all over the slopes. I took one ride down and decided it wasn't worth wrecking my base forever. I've never seen anything like it. Probably try to get a couple days in next week(spring break) anybody personally seen sugar, cat, or beech lately?
