Anyone Heading to Snowshoe opening Weekend?


I'm tossing around the idea of heading up there for the first ride of the season. Leave on black friday and get away from the mad crazy shoppers, and the stress of planning this wedding.


Anyone else thinking of heading up? Looks like they have gotten 3" of natural snow so far, and had 8 days of snow making. Give it another week, and it'll be ready for me to hardcore rip up the green slopes!

Maybe if there is 4" of snow on the ground!

If you are in Richmond VA, it's 4 hours, tops. (Depending on where you are in the city)

I know a guy who made it in 3:15, but you gotta be HAULIN! I've made it in the summer time in 3:30-3:45 plenty of times.

We should hook up sometime. Look for the guy falling down a lot with a girl who is kicking his ass. That'd be me and my fiance.

Well I'll be there with my wife and one of her friends. They both aren't too good but I like to go fast. I'll either be with them, or ripping it up by myself.

Flag me down if you see me, I'll probably be one of the very few people on skiboards.

Here is what I'll be riding:
