 that's rigth. Only way carvers can get down that without bailing is wait for spring condtions, ski top to top while make those pirouette turns on top. A sorry way of doing it

| That would be the perfect run..if there was about a foot and a half of fresh Poe to cover up the bumps. Screw the perfect lines..I like long swaths of ice followed by a huge powder bump...they're perfect for goose stomping..Seeded bumps are too easy.. |

You're kidding me about the perfect run with fresh pow, that seed formation is pitiful, its made for skiers who think you there are many ways to ski bumps. Bump skiing is about holding the line in either seeded or skier made bump trails. And yes sometimes you have to alter the line in skier made but you know whether you held that line or not. Put it in terms you can understand; either you have to goods to put your partner in screaming ecstasy or you didn't... there's' no faking it. Oh yeah, it been weeks since you scored.... forget what I said

A season in the life... October: bumper - "Northern VT just got dumped on with almost 2'! That's gonna help form a nice base for when the season starts. I can't wait!" bc'er - "Northern VT just got dumped on with almost 2'! I'm playing hooky tomorrow. The season has started!" November: b - "Season started! Still a little thin and too early for good bump runs but I kept hitting the same line over and over again to try to build a nice bump run. Maybe at the end of the day I'll have some moderate troughs to pound." bc - "Still a little thin. Time to look for bony liftlines and maybe hit up MRG before they open" December: b - "Great skiing. I need to keep hitting the bumps to get better today so I can hit the same bump line tomorrow. Maybe next week I'll do some bumps at some other mountain. " bc - "I've been going into the trees too much. I need to get some more lift served runs in to get in shape for my Chic Chocs trip." January: b - "This thaw sucks. More snow!" bc - "This thaw sucks. More snow!" February: b - "Awesome day. Lots of new powder. It kinda bogged me down too much on that steep 25 degree run. But luckily it soon formed into beautiful humps of snow - I really like skiing interesting terrain made possible only after a run has been skied repeatedly by a huge crowd" bc - "Awesome day. Lots of new powder. Slept on the mountain and got first tracks on untouched powder! Nothing like having a blank natural canvas to ski your art upon." March: b - "I better rush and get in the last days of the season" bc - "Sweet, spring skiing is about to start" April: b - "What a great season. I must've had 1000+ runs and only one knee reconstruction! I guess its time to hit the honey-do list" bc - "This spring snow is phenomenal!! With this snow pack I'll be skiing into June!" May: b - "I guess I should probably post a thread on a skiing forum expressing how much I can't wait until the start of next season." bc - "The snow is still hanging around, I'm hitting nasty lines left and right every weekend, what a great spring season this is turning out to be!" June: b - "I guess I should probably post a thread on a skiing forum expressing how much I can't wait until the start of next season." bc - "Still some stuff left on the right aspects... season is winding down" July: rivercoil - "Maybe I can get a few turns on that 40ft patch of snow on Mt Washington"
