Yeah I bought a cheap monopod to use as a pole mount, retracts nice and fits into my backpack.

Last week in Engelberg, Switzerland. 3 feet of fresh over night, no crowd and we found a closed slope that was all untracked. A bit of flat light unfortunately so the pics aren't that great and had to be played with a lot

Still the best day I've had so far and I was surprised how easily my Coda handled the deep stuff with zero rear leg burn.

had a nice empty day yesterday..literally no one out there in NJ..hoping to do way better than this this upcoming weekend

^^^ Nice jump. I gotta learn that.... 20 years ago I could easily do the skate ramp jumps and pull off little methods and shit, and ride the half pipe lip to lip, drop in etc...

I can do all of that now on a snowboard except the jumping. Got caught up again tonight on little roller jump and ate shit on the only ice patch in the near vicinity.

Oh well..... with time I guess...

What's up with that lift? Do you have to stand the entire way??

East§ide · 02-08-2013, 12:43 AM

Yea, the lift is a high speed gondola, it holds about 8, but you have to take your board off completely. Kind of annoying, but on the upside there's never a pileup at the top.

That little air was actually off of a small jump they threw into a little park run on the main mountain.. Surprisingly smooth and easy. I haven't gotten into the park as much this year as I would've liked, but I've progressed alot in my all mountain riding.. I especially love those side hits

Oh man...... I sooooo need to sit down after a lot of runs. My legs need me to sit down. lol...

I see no reason for this thread to die...

Its been a fun last few days. No huge dumps but enough here and there combined with some wind transport to keep things fresh.

Here is a shot from above the clouds. Low clouds dont happen to much around here, at least in my experience, so its cool when it does happen. Even if you have to wait to be able to see what your riding.

Heres a tree that I must have passed under a million times before noticing how bad ass it was

One of the guys getting after it, just to prove that I actually ride and am not just a hippy nature photographer
