I chose not to go to main and rather go to Behrend. Plenty of riding close and still a sweet school. I'm not knocking on UP at all though. Place is mad legit. The only problem is Tussey. My friend that I used to instruct with now teaches Snowboarding at Tussey. He cry's himself to sleep every night for having to ride there...

Who? I teach skiing at Tussey, so I might know him.

And Tussey isn't really all that bad. It's tiny, but its relatively steep for its size and location. Of course, this is my first year here and I've heard this is the best year in a long time.

I considered going to Behrend. Peek'n Peak (my home mountain) is about a 15 minute drive and Holiday Valley isn't too far either.

I just fell in love with UP and Penn State football.

The instructors name is Mike(y) Mankosa. And I don't blame you at all. UP is the total shit. There is nothing better than a Penn State Football game for sure!

Haha!
My roommate is a psycho attention whore. It could be much worse though. At least she's not an actual whore.

I mean I really honestly thought she was the bee's knees and that we'd be the best of friends but now I can't stand being in the room with her. I guess that's what a 15x12 ft bedroom does to you.
5 weeks and we're outta here..

I just made this new forum: http://www.wearrr.com

Everyone should go check it out and support a fellow skier. It would be sick to get a strong skier presence on there. It also has a Buy, Sell, Trade section in case you are looking to dump off some old ski gear.

Thanks guys! And I might be looking for a roommate this fall if anyone is interested.

Wow. I have lived in State college my entire life and not realized there were this many nsers. I am going to PSU next year and i really want to try to get more organized and shred with some fellow nsers. Is anyone interested in making edits and hitting urban (I know of a Bunch).

Also we need to get carpools together and stuff to go to other mountains, Tussey does not cut it

Can we please make an NS club??! It's damn near impossible to spot out you people!
I practically live in the IST building so if y'all are ever there look for the chick with the red hat.

I'd be down for an NS club.

I'm living out by the IST building next year, and will be in Hammond almost all day every day.

Also, if any of you have ever thought about ski instructing, Tussey is actually pretty fun if you teach. Being paid to ski isn't a bad thing either.

An NS club will be sweet! or at least a freeskiing club or something. I think we could do it! We should definitely have a meeting of the minds this fall.

yes. The skiing (and quite frankly snowboarding too) clubs are out of control. A freeskiing club would be legit!! There are quite a few skiers here hiding out I think..
We should definitely meet up in the fall. No one forget!
