I have no one to ski with, and am always soloin it.  Everybody at my school, that skis ,is with the theatre crowd.  They all enjoy wearing lycra and dressin up like fuckin cats. Not a sob story, just want some input on what to do....

i enjoy skiing alone i. i can think more and i always seem to shred better when no one is around to judge. i find it to be more relaxing.

I like skiing with people better than me, that way I naturally am inclined to push myself. Solo hot laps aren't too bad though, but I rarely ever learn anything or try anything new.

My best day was solo. It was a Thursday, and I only ran into someone else maybe 3 times the entire day. Didn't hurt that we got a foot of new snow the night before, which is somewhat of a rare occurrence in Michigan anymore.

Skiing park though can get a little old without a group of friends.

Personally I like skiing solo. I always try to get one or two days a week skiing by myself no matter what. Really good method to clear your head and all that shit.

On a pow day, you have no friends or family.

exactly. 80% of park skiing is usually about having fun with your friends, at least here in PA it is. there's not too many people that legitimately ski park here, so when you're by yourself it gets boring quick. im usually over it in like two hours...

I wish I had better friends to ski with. I hate waiting for people on pow days.

just cruising around, it's fun to be alone sometimes

riding park alone, though, sucks

Meh, personally I just go with the flow. I pretty much never make plans with people and I just go to the mountain. More often than not I run into people I know but if I don't I just leave the headphones in and have a dance party while I ski. (I really do)

i def like skiing with friends 500x more.  but it's not always possible- especially if i'm taking a ski break at work.

to make it more enjoyable, i get high, rock out, and try to find hotties in line to ride up with- get mah creep on yo ;)
