I haven't gone for about year or 2... I dont think I went last year but looking to get back into this winter (when it gets cold!!)
I missed the ski/snowboard show this year so i might have to wait to get some new gear when things go on sale.
Anyone get any new gear? I'm looking to get a pair of new bindings for Christmas or something... maybe even a new jacket. Anyone know of good binding? Burton Cartel's still any good?
If anyones down for a TOTA meet up at Blue Mt. that'd be cool. Sometimes I'll go by myself after work and ride till 10pm then head back.
Can't wait, last year I know its snowed a lot up there.

I used to Ride religiously every weekend or every other weekend since I was a teenager. BC, Alberta, Quebec, Vermont, Ive went everywhere. I havent been in the last two years. I just got a new board and bindings and gear the year I last rode. The board is a Burton twin 155, with special edition Cartel Bindings. I also have Sean White boots size 9.5
I paid about 1400 for this setup brand new with taxes in. The setup has about 8 rides on it. Im willing to let it go as a package to you or anyone looking for a quality board. Its not made in China, it was made in Austria, and is a limited edition. I think they only made 1000 of them or something like that.
Make an offer.
I also have a medium Volcum Jacket, and a large Sean White jacket from the same year. Both like new. Tones of money spent on this gear, willing to let it all go to anyone who wants to take it for a fair price. Its all in excellent to mint shape.

Can't wait to get out this year, Tremblant's opening on December 5th so I'm gonna try and be there...

P.S. My cartels are awesome, never broke, and look good still. Really comfortable binding. However, Watch for new cartels made in China, straps apparently break a lot.

I just bought these bindings...
Got a pretty good deal on them at the Ski/Snowboard show last month.
Also got these boots...
Haven't ridden in them yet, still waiting for the first snowfall before I get too excited. Hoping it snows by the weekend of Dec 18 to hit up Holiday Valley for a day. But will def be making a few trips up to Blue Mountain as well :D
Not to mention I'm hitting up Whistler during the Olympics in Feb :D :D :D

Once the snow hits I'll probably be going every weekend, and on some weeknights if the conditions are good enough. Not necessarily to Blue though.
I'm still pretty new at it, can't give any advice on gear, but I'm definitely shooting for at least a couple of good ski/snowboard meets this winter.
TRANCEEEE
I cannot wait!!! the best thing about winter!
But before that I need to sell my board and buy a smaller one.
I am selling this K2 board and K2 bindings, which I have barely used, for $320 if anyone's interested:

Yeah i snowboard every tuesday during the winter with my snowclub at school. We go over the boarder to NY and go to kissing bridge. It's a small place but their park is pretty killer for a small hill.

Every year I've been on TA, as much as we tried.... we never got around to firming up a TA snowboard day. :(
I hope this year is different. I have 3 boards... 140 something to a SIMS all-Mountain 160, fast as . So I have one for different snow conditions, and been snowboarding sinse '93. We should definitely have a TOTA snowboard day this year and make it firm.

got my 5x7 for Blue Mountain and usually go sundays! this year I plan on getting some more gear. One thing is a must for night riding is clear lenses for my goggles. We should do a TOTA ski/snowboard meet there in Jan...

Thats where I go too :) My parents live 10 mins from there. If you get the chance go to Holiday Valley...its not too much further from Kissing Bridge...about 30 mins or so.
