How is the weather treating you?

SHARE YOU STORIES, GOOD OR BAD...


Last night i get home and my roommate and his girl shoveled all the driveway but 10-15 feet at the base. This 10-15 foot patch was about 12+ inches of snow on the ground. So i went for it right when my roommate was coming down the driveway on the snowskate...he tags my side mirror and i stop. Hes ok. I back down and i get stuck on this patch, start digging the snow out from under and a guy pulls up in a Yota. "you want me to pull you out?" So he pulled me out, we shoveled this patch out and i try to go up again. Almost made it and got stuck AGAIN sliding backwards down the driveway.(scary shit, you have to use the e-brake, if you hit the foot brake, you slide out left or right) My roommate pulls me out this time and i give it one last shot and nope, didnt make it but 5 more feet and i would've made it. Backing down is fuckin crazy... So i parked it on the street hoping i wouldnt get plowed in. Sure enough i saw the plow guy go by the opposite side of where i parked. So i went down there and turned her around. Then he plowed the other side.
Time to get some studded tires...

It was a frustrating night for me... I took my frustration out on shoveling snow for my drop in and jumps im building... I was sore today...

So i did some night boarding out around my house tonight. Theres a few good 4-8 foot drops up the road, pretty much a 5' quarterpipe at the end of my driveway, we had a jump and a rail set up for the snow skate which is barried under snow now, i shoveled a drop in for a couple jumps off our driveway AND dropping off the roof!(10') Not to mention a few good fresh powder runs for about 10-20 yards...

Good session for an hour past... I cant wait till this weekend to get up to the mtn..

Hows it treatin' you?

I got a two hour delay today from school. I was able to sleep in a extra two hours. Then when I got to school the parking lot was still icy so I told my friend to drift in it with his 06' Mustang. He had never done anything like that before and i forgot to tell him to keep it in 1st (auto). Also watched another one of my friends drift from the back parking lot entrance into a parking spot in the middle of the parking lot with his CD5!!

I will never forget the last time it was icy. i was driving down to school like any other day, take a right, uphill, peel a little bit, thinking it was just the dew, I cruise around 40 down a couple miles of road, then I see the stoplight ahead turn green, and I let off the gas and take the turn, took it really inwards and started to skid, it's a two lane turn, and there was a van in the outer lane, it cought really quick and landed between the lines. So besides almost taking out a van, and scaring the cheit out of the granny, it was a great day.
