Which one would it be and why. I would re-live either 9-10 or 10-11. They were just such awesome seasons, and the skiing and style from that era was so sick.

I'm gonna go ahead and say that for most areas (except southern CO, NM, and AZ) the 10-11 season was as epic as ever. All of breck's upper mountain was so filled in that there almost wasn't any hucks left haha

hands down 10-11, the amount of snow was ridiculous, even if I did suck at skiing.

12-13 was pretty deep in europe but progression and fun wise id say this season....
So conditions of 12-13 with the trips, progression and people of 13-14 would be awesome :)

10-11. So many things I wish I had gotten on film. It was the year I progressed the most and the last season I got to ski with all my old buddies all the time. I would kill to have those days back.

04/05, man, the best times of my teenage life. We had a big crew of skiers and snowboarders alike, filming at our local "snowpark" (1 jump, approx. 25ft, a few 9ft rails and boxes) and ridicilously small urban features. Long days at the resort, trying to replicate shit we saw the pros do in movies. Always nice atmosphere and hanging out with friends. Whenever we were not riding, we would gather someplace and watch movies like Ski Movie 2&3, Propaganda, Happy Days, Forward, Ready Fire Aim etc. etc.

Oh dem golden days...

Plenty I wish I could relive but if I could totally forget one it would be 11-12. One of the driest seasons on record in the East along with that three week spell of August weather in the middle of March.

Well for pure fun I would say 02/03. That was my first season in North america and although the snow was not epic it was still amazing.

Skiing wise prob 07/08 was my best ski season, but I did love the pow of 10/11 too.

12-13 because I graduated from my first college in December and took the spring semester off and a buddy had just come back home that same month from Malaysia and decided not to start college until the fall. So all we did was ski, neither of us had jobs, we skied full-time. Also our hill was open for seven months that year. Plus a few trips out west, best season of my life so far.

I would also like to relive 10-11 because it was the year I started taking skiing seriously and took the funnest ski trip of my life. Don't get me wrong, I always loved skiing but it's because of that trip that I have the drive and constant stoke to ski today.

11-12 was a great season for me. The snow wasn't so great, but I still had so much fun and met so many cool people that year.

11-12 for sure. East Coast got absolutely hammered with snow, more than weve gotten in years. Learned so much that season, it was sick

Definitely Sun Valley in the 80s. Coke, hot dogging and the bitches with the tight snow pants. Magic.
