We're coming at ya with another Reddit inspired AMA series and this week, we'll have none other than Newschoolers OG and one of skiing's most unique characters, Andy Parry. The man has been a pillar of our community for many years and is responsible for countless hours of entertainment for all of us, thanks to his starring role in countless Traveling Circus episodes (and many NS forum posts!). He's a very intelligent guy, who has a lot to say about pretty much everything and he's never been afraid to share his opinions, so we don't expect him to hold any punches in this one.

Drop your questions for Andy in this thread and the wizard himself will be signing in on Monday, April 13th to answer the best of your questions.

As an east coaster moving west and living in different places what were the some of the things you learned from the experience. Lots of kids from the east coast have goals of doing this but really know idea what it will actually be like. Do you have any advice to offer the next generation of east coasters that are looking at this option.

Some other friends started to film with the Meatheads during college and Will ended up in thay group and eventually got some skis from Jason. I got hooked up a year later with some orginal Invaders that had been mounted 4 times before.

Mike Nick was a big one, and so was Dave Crichton growing up. Now its probably Tanner and Henrik.
