Becoming more and more sure that I fractured my Scaphoid coaching the kiddos this summer. Gonna get a surgical opinion as soon as my new insurance kicks in in January, but I'm really, really not stoked about the 3-6 month recovery. Blargh.
DeebieSkeebiesAlta was lit today. Holy fuck. Best early season skiing ive ever had.
Going tomorrow? Ill be up there and im fackin stoked, sadly no piff to celebrate but should be a fun rip hopefully with homies. Whats the terrain like is there a shit load of safe freshies to get or what?

Was literally about to post this, I’m sure I saw you ripping around at some point. Between yesterday and today BY FAR the best early season skiing I’ve ever had.
TODAY WAS FUCKING AMAZING IM SO HYPED RN AND CANT BELIEVE IM BACK IN FLORIDA TOMORROW
Landed a backie for the first time in a couple years and hit some big ol 3’s off a nice jump someone built up under wildcat. Cannot fucking wait to move back out west.

You are in for a treat. Unfortunately I’m heading home tonight but wildcat is so much fun right now and they keep opening more every day. So many fun natural hits!! Still plenty of freshies to be had if you look for em.

Titus69Fucking rights im stoked to get up tomorrow, safe travels i hope UT treated you well.
Thanks dawg have fun out there, hoping to make it back out here ASAP. I’ve been skiing all over the US and the Alps and I still think Utah is my favorite

Thinkin about it. They started opening the mountain up a bit more and eventually got a good chunk of Ballroom open. Idk about High T or any of that stuff you can ski on either side but they blasted it a bunch and it brought down a lot of stuff. All of Wildcat got opened up im pretty sure. Theyre progressively getting stuff open but for now its still damn good skiing. Pretty deep pockets and some good turns left but mostly just soft cruddies and fun, fast charging. Really fucking fun.

Such a pretty day, holy shit. Quality snow, good vibes, good skiing. All you could ask for....and its only December 1st lol
Skied again today and it was a lot less painful than yesterday. Gonna have to take it easy for a while tho cause I basically can’t tighten up my boot at all. Yesterday made me want to go right away and try on snowboard boots but today I am a lot more optimistic about making the ski boots work in time

Message me if you send up, if you see bright green boots on arv 106s its me, my roommate was there today and said he thinks theyd open high T tomorrow maybe, said it wasnt touched at all but i guess that could easily run long and fast with conditions right now, scary to see the canyons ridgeline fucking ruined from 224. I hope the hoe is open tomorrow, i just wanna get at least a somewhat fresh run in, kinda scary they opened ballroom area unless baldy didnt react to any blasting. Just hyped to get up there, crack a can, maybe have a piff, go fast.
taylornickyCute shirt where'd you get it ;)

a really cute lady gave it to me
I haven't had hair this blonde in three years or so? It's going to take some time!!
Fuck I hit some kids cart last night and I feel like absolute shit 24 hours later I think I hit a wack cart. I’m done with weed I never want to feel like this again. I can barely breathe and my lungs are full of phlegm.

Damn dude, I dont know if I'll ever even buy a dispensary cart, some girl my roommates knows sister is having chest pains either from dab pens or juuls, fuck carts. I think people should just buy real oil or shatter and use a coil vape, got me way higher for longer than carts when i dabbed a lot.

Not taking a shot at Titus at all but it cracks me up when I see people who are like “if you see a full north face kit with on3ps and bright blue boots, let’s link up. I’m guilty of it too but it’s way rad when you’re like, yo let’s meet at the top of hidden peak or meet at the bottom milly at 1230 and take some laps.
I feel like when people describe their kit and then you see them on hill you gotta be like “uhhhh are u chungus420ski on newschoolers?” And then u have that awkward meeting internet person irl convo on the lift and it’s just kinda sus. Most of the time it’s like “oh I definitely saw you today or, yeah I was a few chairs behind you”
not knocking anybody at all I just think it’s a funny observation.
Hopefully I get out to Utah for like a week or so this season and when I do I want all my ns buddies linking up in the parking lot, morning beers/spliffs and it’s gonna be a party. Been way too long since I’ve been part of an NS meet up with you fucks.

Holy fuck boot shopping is awful. Anybody have experience with the Scarpa Freedom RS or the Lange XT free 130? Torn between the two. They both fit decent in the shop, but the flex on the Lange feels a little better. I can get the price of the Scarpa broken up into several paycheque deductions though, so I may roll with that.
Buy the boot that actually fits, disregard cost, you'll be so much happier in the long run

Wow, I was a kid in 7th grade when I discovered NSG and NS in general. I posted a shit load and spent a lot of good days filming dumb videos with buddies in terrain parks and in backyards on pvc tubes trying to spin 2s and 4s and switchups and post them on NS. Life was good.
Now I'm a grownup and I have to go to work and pay bills and shit. What the hell.
I keep having this dream that's been fuckin me up. I'm having this wonderful day with this gorgeous woman and were just cruising on bikes thorough this incredible mountain town, we are the perfect couple and bring out the best version of each other, not only are we lovers, but also best friends. The dream always ends with saying goodbye though a window and she's just got this look on her face like shes so excited for the next time she sees me, it's just such a distinct look. And then I wake up and I'm reaching for my phone to find a text because I told her to text me to remind me of the name of some landmark or something.
I get out of that just awoken stupor and I'm like, dammit that felt so real. And then I realize that version of myself that this dreamgirl is in love with doesn't exist, and it feels so unlikely that I will ever find her if she even exists. So I just keep ending up with these women that don't really deserve my time and affection, nor do they reciprocate so it just fizzles and then somehow I'm the asshole for breaking things off.
And I'm not in the college setting anymore where it's easy to find social outlets to meet women, so pretty much my only option is tinder. I'm not trying to generalize the dating pool in this town, but I've been with a lot of women who ranged from lazy to genuinely toxic through tinder. A couple of gems, but those didn't work out.
Whats even crazier is that I have been such a loner my whole life, it's only been this past year or so that I have been meeting people. I've "dated" 5 different women over the past year, and probably had 14 first dates. Maybe it's bad luck, maybe it's me. But I have made so many platonic female friendships over the past 4 years and they all adore me, or at the very least think of me much higher than I think of myself once they get to know the unfiltered version of myself. So I have some genuine validation that I'm a personable and lovable man. But once I get romantically interested in someone, I'm tightly filtering every single thing that I do and every word that comes out of my mouth until I'm comfortable, and I have had very little luck finding a woman that lasts to that point.
Also I've been really wanting to get a dog for a long time now, and I finally have the financial stability and dedication to allow for that. I really want some distraction from my own thoughts and something to express love for and care for. I also moved into an apartment that I thought allowed dogs because 2/4 other tenants in the complex have dogs and the wording in the lease was ambiguously leaning toward dog friendly. I went to the shelter on a Saturday and fell in love with this pup immediately and thought this dog would be a great fit for my lifestyle, I put in an application and was getting prepped for this decision. Then on the following Monday I called my landlord and he was like "Trust me, I love dogs, I even have a dog, but only homeowners should have dogs, renters just aren't responsible enough in my experience to maintain a dog". Wouldn't even discuss a pet deposit or anything that I am willing to pay. And I just fucking broke down, I hung up and had to just cry. I was on a work errand and it was like 10 minutes before I was able to go back into the shop. I was so excited to finally be settling into a place that I enjoyed living in, had cheap rent, great location, and was getting comfortable with my new roommates, and was so grateful to have the perceived option of a dog, and then got a swift kick in the balls. The cherry on top is that my neighbors have this beautiful black German Shepard that they only let out a couple of times a day in which it just barks and scares anyone who is outside. They just let it roam around and it stands in the middle of the street which is a blind corner, and since its a working dog that only goes outside twice a day it has all this pent up energy and has bit a couple of my friends, has chased people on bikes for miles, and they never pick up its shit. I've finally gained its trust and can pet and play with it and it listens to me and I know that narcing on them would only result in the dog getting put down.
Life is pretty fuckin shitty sometimes. Sometimes I want to start smoking a stupid amount of weed again just so that I don't have to live with my own thoughts sober and don't have dreams every night. I fucking hate dreaming.

I read the whole thing man, if your life sucks, no drug is gonna make it better. You'll find a girl, you'll get that dog someday, life gets better. I still see my ex in my dreams sometimes, and it fucking hurts. At least the girl in your dreams is someone you're looking forward to meeting and not someone you've loved and lost. You got this man, time and effort, take life as it comes.
im interested in getting those higher end attack 16s or whatever only because the brakes look like they wont fuck up like the STH heels do. like my STH2 16 brakes are all mangled now and started hooked together as I skied sometimes which was fuckin scary, and ive broken too many halfmoon pivot plates

Don’t be so negative bruh! You sound like you have your head together.
It also seems like for dating you need to be a bit more aggressive to stop getting friend zoned. Thirdly it seems like you want a dog to project your emotions of love on to and have that reciprocated.
The UAC's own Craig Gordon is one of the coolest dudes ever....He did our avy refresher tonight for our team and will be helping out with the Avy1 class portion. Super nice guy........and holy shit is he ever ripped....The most inshape guy ive ever seen

Respect to the OGs like him. Total character but in the best way possible.
He told us his daily schedule in the winter is wake up at 3am, go to the gym to workout, go dawn patrol and do forecasts, come back, and then work on other stuff all day. Hes a machine.

Jesus christ and im sitting here after day 2 of alta feeling like im gonna fall apart, whata boss.
HYP3R_REAL1TYIt also seems like for dating you need to be a bit more aggressive to stop getting friend zoned.
Nah man, that's not the problem, I'm not in the "friend zone" with my female friends, and I appreciate their friendship more than anything. Can't jeopardize that by trying to pursue romantically
The problem is when I'm putting in all of the effort in a relationship, which has been way more common than I want. I gotta even hold back on being "aggressively" affectionate most of the time.
You are right though, I shouldn't be so negative. It's pretty hard at this point in my life though, trying to find positivity gets pretty exhausting.
I think I just have a bad case of shin bang from my fall but I'm not sure. Basically I tomahawked on sunday about 2 somersaults, felt something like shin bang in my right leg. I skied the rest of the day and then felt it the next day. I can jump up and down on that leg, but if push hard on the lower back part of my calf I feel pretty excruciating pain in that leg kind of internal as though it were on the inner part of my tibia and fibula. Its gotta be something muscle relate related if I can jump up and down right?
