Nice. Love western skiing!

I've been boarding since before they actually let boards on the mountains and we basically snuck onto the lower mountain runs until mgmt caught us. My first board purchase was the winter of '85/86. It was a Burton Elite(?) with a swallow tail and cracked edges. We used Timberland boots or Sorels until our feet were numb. The next year Stratton opened up to boarders and then slowly but surely the followed

I remember those days (I started around 1990).....remember leash laws ?!?!
I was the prototypical ski racer who became burnt out, and then ventured to "the dark side".

Stowe is great! So's Jay Peak. Def worth the extra bit of a drive if you're going for a weekend. Don't have the crazy lift lines.

Also none of the VT riders have mentions Magic....can't be beat on a freshy day
