Too funny. MrsGrassi21 meet andy, andy meet the Mrs.

We will do our best to avoid andy up in Warren. If not, you might find andy and me singing songs be the fire until the wee hours. Maybe something by Ludacris?

Hehe, still working on getting up there for at least Friday. Bring the berries, I'll bring the pancakes.

Come for the mogul comp info, stay for the fun. So...

I'm Mike, and met a few AZers at the Ski Sundown bump comp. I grew up about 25 minutes SE of Buffalo, started skiing in 4th grade when my mom decided the only way she was going to get to go skiing again was to force her kids to come along with her. Haven't looked back since, even with a broken arm my 8th time out. I've mainly skied bumps since probably 8th grade, but don't consider myself to have been a bump skier until this year when I started paying attention to technique other than weight forward and staying in a fall line. Didn't ski during college for lack of time and money, but started back up again last year. I now mostly ski Killington, but am thinking about adding Ski Sundown a couple nights per week next year.

Outside of skiing, I went to Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY, for Aeronautical and Mechanical Engineering. After graduating, moved to CT and work in East Hartford, live about 15 minutes south of Hartford. Also a racing fan, mainly F1, ALMS, Rally, motocross, superbike, MotoGP, (i.e. anything that doesn't involve ovals.) Hockey's the other big spectator sport, though I'll catch lacrosse and volleyball when they're on TV (played both in high school.) Music mainly rock, mix of classic through current, though I have a freakish leaning toward Canadian rock (Rush, Barenaked Ladies, Tragically Hip,...)

Eh. I think that's enough for now.

Welcome to the forum Mondeo- I filmed everyone Sunday and should have a vid up in the next day or so, at least of the guy's preliminary runs. Glad to have you around, ps- go sabres

I have been reading this site for years, and have enjoyed it. But today when I read about the "Border Checkpoints", I could no longer keep silent. I know it says no politics, but this is a political problem. I have been skiing since 1964 and have never been stopped trying to exercise my right to peaceful enjoyment. Ed.

Welcome and great first post, hope it doesn't get nuked. Somethings just need to be said.

Well I just wanted to say Hello! I decided to sign up for the boards after listening to things from my sister all season long. I am looking forward to being on the "inside" next season! I learned how to ski my sophomore year of college, which was 4 years ago, but really stepped it up this season. It was such a fabulous winter and I am really sad to see it go. So far I have made it to the slopes 30 times with at least 5 more scheduled before the end of April.

I <3 skiing. Completely obsessed now
