r6ken · 10-13-2009, 07:09 PM

since the riding season is coming to a end. i was wondering who hits the mountains in the winter? last year i didn't know anyone in idaho that did so i'm looking for some snow riding buddies to go with this winter. halla

SRWitt · 10-13-2009, 07:11 PM

I've got a board, but no bindings/boots. Its a "new" Endeavor Initial Series 156.

X9Firebolt · 10-13-2009, 07:18 PM

i ski, id like to make it out to sun valley someday. im from bay area cali and i used to vacation at squaw valley and northstar in lake tahoe, prety nice runs

chrispittman · 10-13-2009, 07:34 PM

I do and can't wait to be back on Washington mountains. Snowboarding in Socal was like rubbing sand in a fresh cut and then letting a poisonous snake chew it out.

r6ken · 10-13-2009, 07:41 PM

i micro ski and last year i bought a new pair of twin tip skis and never got to use them. its time to break them in. that reminds me, any of you n. idaho boys that like to try micro skis i have 2 pairs, their super fun. you just have to rent boots if you dont have any and you have to bring me, lol

Trustme I grew up on baker and stevens and spent last winter in socal, I think that's why I hated it with a passion, I got pampered with ACTUAL snowboarding, not putting gear on and riding down fake ass grainy sand with shitty features cause the park staff barley knows how to walk in snow let alone shovel it or build with it... sorry.. Touchy subject.

r6ken · 10-13-2009, 07:59 PM

well i'm glad i never had that experience. lucky you for beening able to grow up on baker. i could only wish

Fast Eddie 919 · 10-13-2009, 08:26 PM

I used to ski at Schwietzer and MT Spokane back in the mid 80's

smoothytaggert · 10-13-2009, 08:32 PM

For the right offer this could be yours.....

B.P. · 10-13-2009, 08:56 PM

I have a season pass at 49' North this year. I plan to ride as much as paossible as soon as it snows.

never dun 49* north yet. i've dun schwitzer and lookout. but i plan on hitting all the others. check this site, it has all the ski resorts locally and prices, lift tickets, ect.

B.P. · 10-14-2009, 06:22 AM

49 is a good place. A lot of varied terrain. I think that they are second best in the area. Schweitzer is definitely top I rode there for 5-6 years, but I need a place that is affordable with good beginner and intermediate terrain for the family.

straightshot · 10-14-2009, 06:36 AM

When we going? Just have to wax the skis.

my twin tips have never seen wax, lol. whenever the slopes are ready. i like to wait till fall is over, so i dont feel like a water skier all day. but we should get a group together.

straightshot · 10-14-2009, 11:48 AM

years ago, we would take up camping cooking gear and cook hot dogs and drink a beer after we got done skiing. Helluva tailgate party, we called it the "Ski Weenie". The people on the mountain usually had to kick us out of the parking lot at the end of the night.

Lizi_wesson · 10-14-2009, 11:59 AM

I prefer skiing to snowboarding or snomobiling. The shuttle for Stevens Pass picks up in front of my place WHEWT!

When Jay and I were thinking about getting married I asked him if he wanted to get married or buy new skis/boots/poles/gear. Because I view weddings as a tremendous waste of money. Jay looked at me long and hard and said "really?" I said "yep. whats it going to be?"

Jay said: "I'm not sure if that's either the least or the most romantic offer I've ever been given. And I'd chose the skis".

So yes. Skiing. Stevens and Mission Ridge since Leavenworth is roughly in between the two.

Johnny950SM · 10-14-2009, 12:12 PM

Don't ski anymore, that and softball for years kinda messed up my knees. Although I do have a 185 rosi monoski I will be selling this season if you know anyone interested. Paid over $600 for it, has solomon bindings on it. They don't sell them at any shops anymore so hoping it goes pretty quick! Let me know if you wanna check it out Ken. peace

steveonrock · 10-14-2009, 12:22 PM

Hey, I'm a 100+ per year rider out of the Portland area. Mainly a park junkie, but can ride anything... Anytime you want to ride on Hood, look me up. Gotta spare bedroom, and a comfortable couch...

Early Timberline this season (couldn't wait, had to hike and build)

These are my favorites

r6ken · 10-14-2009, 01:18 PM

Lizi_wesson · 10-14-2009, 03:13 PM

Over here in Leavenworth we like to put 100 sheet metal screws in each tire, and groom the oval driveway into a little ice flattrack. Here's the motel crf150...the ROKON has ice spikes....and the little xr50 is pretty epic on the ice, as well. waahhh00000t!

My employee uses the ROKON to drag tourists on snowmobiles out of ditches for money all winter round here (w00t!) It's 2 wheel drive LOL. Here's the ROKON with the xr50

r6ken · 10-14-2009, 06:07 PM

sounds fun. thats my next purchuse, a dirt bike. a year round toy

Gotama · 10-14-2009, 06:12 PM

ski , mainly hit crystal mt

jnicola · 10-14-2009, 06:29 PM

I do, and will be doing the fusion pass for T-line and skibowl this year. Meadows terrain is supposedly better but the lift lines are retarded, they barely open shit, and their park sucks. Meadows pretty much thinks were all bundled up wallets. This bundled up wallet is going to t-line!

Anyways, I can't find a ton of good pictures from last season... except for this one of my broken colar bone last season. Sucks too since I took first in the USASA senior mens division for slopestyle, was gunning to sweep boardercorss as well and then hit up Nationals for both for the year. I went the year before for boardercross in the open class, but uh... that was fucking ridiculous. USASA Nationals is a swatch TTR tour stop, and in the open class a lot of olympic competitors were mixed in with us. The other kids all had wax techs, thousand dollar boards, multiple coaches, films of the course... and groupies!

I just had a fucking ham and cheese sandwhich, some gatorade and muchos juevos por ellos madres!

r6ken · 10-14-2009, 07:53 PM

lol

i wish i had that much time to hit the slopes. but when you have a family to support, fun is limited. i'm not whining, growing up is just hard to except sometimes. putting all that crap behind, i can't wait to ride this year.

i want to hit Silver mt. 1st this year. i hear its pretty nice.

Willow · 10-14-2009, 08:39 PM

Skiing all the way! We (my family) will probably try and hit up Silver Mountain some time this next year. Other than that we will probably hit up all the slopes around here in western wa.

rewsintegra · 10-14-2009, 09:13 PM

i will be skiing 49 and schwietzer this year. got season passes to both! watch out for the guy in the bright green jacket flying by you.

r6ken · 10-15-2009, 04:58 PM

whats a good wax to use? i used this wax that smelled good enuf to eat, but it sucked. to be honest with ya'll i don't even know how to wax right. i just rub it on. whats a good rub wax?

TwistedTimes · 10-15-2009, 07:27 PM

i was a big time boarder before my 30k$ knee surgery, i've become much more docile these days and stick to the easy stuff, like tree's and and more grounded fun in the snow. Ski's look scarry to me... and besides i pass the double planker wankers all day long

. You come to portland i'll show you some good stuff at Timberline and Mt Bachelor. just give me some advanced notice

chairmanpato · 10-15-2009, 08:59 PM

Hit me up if you want to ski Mission Ridge, I've lived in Wenatchee for years and I've taught skiing at the Ridge for 15 years. Great snow, sunshine and short(if any) lift lines. Cheap ticket prices too compared to most areas. We take our motorhome up most weekends to have a place for lunch and happy hour after skiing. Last 2 years Mission has been the first area in Washington to open, hopefully this year too. Join us for lunch and an after ski brewski!

i skied Mission Ridge on thanksgiving in 2005. second mountain i've ever skied, it was cool, almost didn't get to ski because the winds were to bad. acouple hours later they opened only 3 lifts and then it rained, i'd like to try it again. Stevens was my first. thanks i would love to join you

Given the other dude flipping you off, I'm not certain you are serious? Incase you aren't here's the cheapest way i know of...

The cheapest way to do it (that I can advise) is get some cheap all temp from the ski section at any ski store,. No joke the ski shit is WAY Cheaper, although the tech shop may have it as well and cheaper since it won't be in any packaging. Ask for their ultra generic bricks of all temp wax. Get that shit for all of maybe $2-3.

Get a clothing iron however nescessary (Steal from your mother, your friends mother, that mother fucker down the street... however). Set it between cotton and wool. Drip wax onto your board by touching wax to the iron. If yo usee smoke you're burning the wax turn that shit down!

Once your base has light dots of wax scattered accross, use the iron to spred it out evenly accross the whole base. Bear in mind the purpose isn't to leave wax ONTOP of the base, but more to have the base absorb it. It's a lot like a cast iron skillet, it heats up, the molecules spread out, wax is absorbed inside, and when it cools it traps in wax to slowly be released over time onto the snow.

Get it all over the base, and scrape all that shit. Buff it with an old t-shirt you don't give a crap about, and you're golden for a little while.

Bear in mind the base material of your board will affect how often you should wax. It is oddly enough the exact opposite of NEED though. Cheaper bases won't suffer damage from lack of wax, although they hold much less wax. Extruded bases up to 2600 molecular weight (that's what the neighbor means btw) are in this category. Sintered bases from 3300 up to 9200 can hold tons of wax, but when they go dry suffer friction damage far easier and you can easily damage your base.

Oh and just a hint, for those of you who are girls or shopping for a girl: beware of bases that say "Low maintenace", that's industry speak for "Shitty ass extruded base". They list acutal base construction and molecular weight on mens boards and good womens board, so use the above information to seperate out the crap from the good

How many people are asleep now

r6ken · 10-16-2009, 08:45 AM

thanks jnicola, what do you use to scrap the wax off?

oh, i ride with Srwitt in the summer, he's harmless

jnicola · 10-17-2009, 08:46 PM

Ideally a wax scraper purchased from a shop. If you want to save scrilla a CD cover will work.

Cheap ticket prices too compared to most areas. We take our motorhome up most weekends to have a place for lunch and happy hour after skiing. Last 2 years Mission has been the first area in Washington to open, hopefully this year too. Join us for lunch and an after ski brewski! __________________ Follow PNW Riders on Facebook and Twitter
