Thanks! It's like surfing on top of the world. I'm high for two days afterwards and am already looking forward to heading back up next weekend. If any of you guys are in Colorado for a few days let me know and I'll take you up. You'll not ever forget the experience I promise :)

Ok wait a minute where in the world did you find the snow? My sled is sitting in Billings, MT at a friends place waiting for snow. I thought I was the only one! Awesome video and when are we riding together? It's been sitting all winter waiting. Spring snow here I come! Glad to see I'm not the only sled freak! Just had my Nytro turbo receive the skinz black treatment. I am so stoked to ride when I get back. So awesome to see some good riding vids. I'm in Key West just waiting to get back home and head out west!

I will take 130 degree temperature on the Colorado River over Snow any day of the week. It has rained maybe 5 days this whole winter season in SoCal and I am grumpy.

Sweet sled. Is that a VA tunnel? Colorado has snow albeit down quite a bit from normal but it's getting there. The Flat Tops and Steamboat are getting hammered again right now. Anytime you want to come down and ride for a few days let me know.

Great stuff. Wish we had some of your snow... I'm use to 2-4 feet in the front yard, currently about 2 inches... New sled had 72 miles on it...
Sucks... May travel over to Old Forge NY to try and find some lake effect snow this week.....

May take you up on it! No VanAmburg tunnel just a stock one cut apart to make it work better. Friends with the Skinz guys who transformed the sled. Made up some marketing promo posters with it. Totally new sled. Little stock left. Can't wait to be heading out in 3 weeks for some powder!

Steamboat has been absolutely pounded since Sun am. 50" plus up on Buff Pass. Friday will be the first clear day so hop on a plane now. It's going to be epic!

You are killing me. I'm in Key West right now sipping on a margarhita. 84 degrees today. Sunset cruise was a nice touch. Really would like 50" of powder instead.

The itch for powder is becoming overwhelming. I don't think I can wait another 3-4 weeks to get out. Only problem in the way is 2 more trips one work and another family trip for spring break. Then powder here I come. I hope it keeps snowing thru April so I can get out at least twice. Another nice video ripping powder. My favorite stuff. Getting too old for the skis to leave the ground too much anymore (more than 30ft vertical or horizontal anyway).
