Great spring skiing!! Awesome bumps on Mid Ovation, Superstar, and Skylark...Pretty much lapped Ovulation, and SS all day with a few hits on skylark. My knee started to hurt like A MF after our 2nd run, but after a few more runs was feeling ok. Great day out there everyone was killing it.. Few pics:

Very nice.....

Always great to ski with the regular crew and meet some new people. There was some good skiing going down.

No really.....don't let the lack of footage fool you :razz:.

man, what a blast today was. Went to killington around the same time last year, and although alot more was open then, it was waaaay better today. middle ovation was just good times. ss, from where we were cutting in was great too. I felt privileged to ski some old school bumps.

Nice to see a bunch of old faces and meet some new ones. ran into MrsG even.

Powbmps was annihilating the place today.

Indeed. Hammering down lower Superstar at mach1 late in the day was impressive.

Awesome crew of simply stand up guys. I was really diggin middle O today. Yeah, low angle, but sick lines, and the dirt, rocks and whatnot added a nice element of challenge. I had one run on lower Supe that felt good when I let them run a bit and tried to do some trough hopping. Most of the other runs on Superstar were survival, but hell, I had fun each time. Skye Lark was fun too, but really, I was just all about Ovation today. Likely finished my season on it, totally all by myself. I really tried to take it all in cruising Nivis that last run, reflecting on a good season. When I got down to middle O from Launch Pad, the sun came out just enough to light up the lines again for me. Had the whole run to myself and felt great on it. Finished up struggling on Lower Superstar, but overall, had a great final day.

Good season. Lots of bumps, met a few new really cool people, and had a lot of fun with the regular ski buddies. Killington served me well for the times I got there this season. People are always going to hate on it, but the Beast is a safe bet early and late season for me.

The only thing I annihilated was my lower back :lol:. Those were some deeeep troughs. Didn't want it to end though.

60+ and sunny when I got home at 5:30. Looks a little different this morning.

 

[madriverjack]

The Big K was fantastic. I would really like to get up there 1 more time before I hang em up. It was nice skiing with everyone yesterday. As for May 2nd who knows???? I think the weather will make that call. So get up there asap and don't take the chance.

 

[bvibert]

Nice video and pics! Looks like a good time.

 

[thetrailboss]

That means that you had a good day. I like the sore feeling after a satisfying day of skiing. I actually wish I was feeling that today...

Hello all,
I was at K's also met the crew around 3:00 pm on Ovation. I spent most of the day on Skylark. Shame on me for not checking this website more often would have like to meet up earlier. What a great mogul posse, you guys were shredding lower sup w/ really deep troughs, impressive. Really good skiing. Great day, temps were perfect. No clouds in the morning which softened the snow then clouds came in late and firmed things up a bit, perfect day. I hope to shred with you guys again this year. Although I wasn't doing much shredding:lol: Awesome day.

 

[powbmps]

I saw your post over on the mogul forum today. Figured we must have crossed paths at some point.

Nice work Pat! Bend that edge back down, fill the hole with some epoxy and you'll be good to go again.

How did that discussion go? "Damage like that wouldn't normally matter, but when you're riding the last inch of your skis, it's a problem." :lol:
