LMAO!! Nope not me. BTW who is Mr Magic?

MrMagic is one of our regular posters here. He's only like 21, so even if he had kids I doubt they'd be posing on the internet just yet.

BTW, welcome to the forums. Magic is a GREAT mountain!

i met MrMagic recently. i expected him to be much older, based soley on his screen name.

I've been a Magic passholder for the last 7 years or so and get up there whenever I can

Magic season pass holder for 7 years.... That's true optimism!

Thanks for the welcome. lol I guess skiing there for all these years has made me an optomist lol. People come and either hate it or love it and I fall into the latter category.

Hey everyone, nice place to join! Thought I'd say hi. I'm a hiker, biker, kayaker, anything that's outdoors, I like to do it.

Steve.

Hi All

Hi All, I'm new to the forum. Found it through Twitter tonight following return from Steamboat Springs at Nature Valley NASTAR national championships. Had a great time. Went there with my camera to shoot the event. I shoot lots of sporting events, and this was one of the first times I've shot Alpine. (Have done lots of Nordic here in Minneapolis.)

I shoot sports because I like to catch the athleticism as well as the emotional sides of events. Please take a look at a few hundred shots I took at this event, as well as some shots earlier in the year at Buck Hill here in Minnesota. Photos are available free for private use and upon request for commercial use.

Enjoy!

New here myself-intro

Hi everyone,
I use to live in VT, skied alot and have skied many of the ski areas over those 25 years there. now five of the ski areas are no longer open sadly enough. I had worked at Haystack for three seasons teaching the young ones to ski.
I live in Maine and have skied off and on but just recently started skiing again. Love the newest ski technology for sure This time loving it more than in late 90'. Finding it hard to end the season this year. I have skied mostly at Sunday River this year but a few days at Shawnee.

I also run a small organic produce farm in Maine, as well as do other side work in the off season. The farm is set up as a CSA where families buy shares and then get to pick up their vegetables weekly for 18 weeks of the season.
So since I now have some of the winter off getting back to skiing works great.

[bamfchris]

hey I'm new here. My name is chris; i just moved to baltimore from louisiana. Which is a very different place, but it seems pretty cool up here. I love the outdoors and i love skiing even though i always had to go to colorado or utah to ski; therefore, i never got to go too often. Hopefully that will change now that i'm up here. Im looking forward to exploring all this great land up here. Im used to flat swamp and marshland and this is pretty much the opposite. Im sure ill love it.

 

[SkiDork]

welcome chris!

There is a subforum for gear and equipment. You might wish to start a separate thread there introducing yourself and perhaps one of the moderators would move the dialogue here over there. You will receive more traffic that way.
